The mechanic for this room is similar to Trapped in a Room with a Zombie (TIARWAZ), but it’s a different company. We did TIARWAZ last year, and I didn’t like it at all. However, this room was executed much, much better. I was glad we did it.

In total, we did three escape rooms that day. I hope no one gets mixed up which was the bad escape room and which was the good one. For the record, Locked-Up was amazing. We shall no longer mention bad mall escape’s name.

We did the Houdini Room at this escape room in Walden Galleria Mall in Buffalo. I’ve done worse, but it wasn’t a room I would recommend for anyone to try. It was pretty lackluster and the puzzles were a bit meh. But I wasn’t super frustrated in the room.

We were in Buffalo and had a room booked at Locked-Up Escape Rooms. I needed to get some cables to record ourselves so we went to the mall first and happened on this generic looking escape facility there. It was… less than good.
