Hi all
The
second escape room business that we checked out in October 2024, while on a holiday with our girls, was ESC (Escape Science
Centre) at Science Centre Singapore. Again, Singapore is not known for its
great escape rooms, but our girls were keen to check out the Science Centre and
the escape rooms are in an adjoining building, so we figured why not.
We played 2 rooms back to back. The first was Shangri-La
and the second was Museum of Humankind. Here
is what I thought:
This room was our favourite of the 2 rooms. It was
more of an Indiana Jones-style adventure room. We began with a backpack of
items on our back and we set off on the adventure. The theming in Shangri-La
was pretty strong, as were the props. The puzzles varied from the quite simple
to the more involved. The highlight for me was one particular 'construction'
puzzle that we really enjoyed. It also involved some pretty impressive tech. We
escaped this room pretty quickly - our GM told us we broke the all-time room record, which
was cool. This was a fun adventure room.
Museum of Humankind – Room 321
Whilst not our favourite room at ESC, we enjoyed this
room as well. The theming was not quite as impressive, but there were a lot
more puzzles (and more challenging puzzles) than Shangri-La. The theme was
about human's impact on the planet - whilst interesting (and certainly suiting Science
Centre Singapore), it was not quite as exciting as the adventure-themed
Shangri-La room.
If you find yourself heading to Science Centre Singapore (which our girls thought was really cool and worth a day out), then I would recommend checking out Shangri-La while you're there. It was a fun adventure room - very family friendly with no jump scares or even dark areas at all.
