We had previously done Final Destination which was very enjoyable. I cannot recommend the Ninja room though - very few puzzles; just one dexterity challenge that seemed to be there entirely to use up lots of time. We finished in 35 minutes and were convinced we'd missed out a section. Really didn't feel like we'd got our money's worth from the experience. Also one puzzle didn't work and we needed to call to get a staff member to manually unlock it.

I also don't really like the sort of hint system where you have to explain to the staff member what you're stuck on before they can help you. In most escape rooms, the game master is paying enough attention that they can give you hints without this extra step.

We were planning to do a second room there in the same trip, but decided unanimously against it.
