Clock Escape Rooms - Truth or Dare Review (Athens)

Hi all

The next escape room that we checked out on our November-December 2024 trip to Athens and Spain was Truth or Dare at Clock Escape Rooms.

I do not recall how I had first heard about Truth or Dare, given it only debuted on the TERPECA list while we were in Athens. But it was a really solid room with really fun puzzles to solve.

Truth or Dare was our 334^th room to date.  Here is what I thought:

• as far as theming goes, this room was probably slightly better than average. It was therefore not in the same league as the top TERPECA rooms in Athens, such as Catacombs or Hide and Seek on that front, but it did have its charm;

• we had some fun actor interactions, which I always enjoy and which I think can really lift the enjoyment of a room;

• I thought the standout aspect of Truth or Dare was the puzzles. I thought they were strong (and in some cases, multi-layered), which was something that at that point in our trip had not been very common in the Athens market. There was one puzzle in particular that had us scratching our heads until the satisfying penny finally dropped;

• Truth or Dare is not a scary room – there are dark elements and certain actor elements that can be scary, but compared to the Athens market I would rate the scare factor here about 0.5 out of 10

Overall thoughts

I thought Truth or Dare was a great puzzle room. It does not compete with the incredibly vast sets or amazing theming of some of the best Athens rooms, but for more traditional puzzle lovers who enjoy making actors break character, this was a really fun room.
