It’s 1945.
Being a 1940’s Hollywood star requires not only looks and talent but also fierce determination in the face of constant criticism. To put it lightly, one must have a thick skin and nerves of steel.
You and your team of special agents have sneaked into the dressing room of Ruby Rose, the notorious Hollywood actress whose nine previous husbands have all died suddenly of mysterious circumstances.
Rose is performing live on stage and in exactly one hour she will return for her break during the interval.
You must search the dressing room and work out which of Rose’s boyfriends she plans to marry and then kill next.

A solid room. Some unique puzzle with a different story. Most importantly the theming is really special as you're in a dressing room! Highly recommend

A small room with lots of props and set dressing.  Lots to do, and some complicated multipart puzzles.  Lighting was a little dark.  Fun room with good hosting

great hosting

A classic escape room with a lot of familiar tropes.  This game is very padlock heavy and the puzzles are a combination of searching and logical deduction.  Theming is ok and is enough to convey the ideas and story behind the room.  Our host was Brad who clued us when we needed to and ran the game incredibly well.

While this isn't the biggest room in terms of floor plan, it's a great game with lots of lovely padlocks and some clever puzzles in a really delightful space.

Went with my husband for my birthday. I loved it! Definitely worth the visit and it's perfect for just 2-3 people as the room is not too big. The puzzles are ok, not too difficult as some other escape rooms we did in other places. I think we only needed like two or three clues.

We will go back for sure!

Great room for our 5 and 8 year olds' fourth room. Pretty easy but some great setting and props and nice puzzles.
