Alien Invasion

This escape room is barely an escape room - it's a non-supervised experience where pre-recorded videos play on a timer to help you through if you haven't progressed far enough. Far too small of a space for a big group, the room is very cramped. And the actual mechanics are painful more than fun.

My friends and I recently had the pleasure of tackling the "Aliens" escape room at Strike Darling Harbour, and it was quite an adventure! The challenges presented were both engaging and difficult, making our escape attempt all the more thrilling. The puzzles flowed seamlessly throughout the room, keeping us on our toes and fully immersed in the experience.

However, one minor drawback was the limited space within the room. With a group of four, it did feel a bit cramped at times, and not everyone had the chance to participate in all the challenges simultaneously. This could potentially be improved to ensure that all participants are fully engaged throughout the game.

Despite this small hiccup, our overall experience at Strike Darling Harbour's "Aliens" escape room was highly enjoyable, and we managed to escape just in the nick of time! If you're looking for an exciting and brain-teasing adventure, this escape room is definitely worth a visit.

First time trying this type of experience, A good combination of atmosphere and mind bending puzzles, the pressure starts to build as the clock ticks downs so make sure you bring along a team that can compliment each other. It got a bit warm in there and the time disappeared quickly but managed to get out with about 3 minutes to spare.

Great friendly staff who were very helpful and happy. Forgot to scan the barcode when we got out due to the excitement but the staff quickly spotted that and rushed us back to the exit to ensure our clock stopped :)
