Do you remember that field trip back in grade school where you visited a pioneer schoolhouse? Now fill that schoolhouse with puzzles instead of listening to your teacher drone on and on. Theme integration is most definitely the highlight of this room. The size is small-ish, and it's a single 45-minute escape. What would you expect to find in a one-room schoolhouse in the 1880s? Slate writing tablets? Check! Wooden desks and chairs? Check! Books? Check! Nothing feels out of place.

The puzzles, while nothing special, add to the immersion into the schoolhouse theme. You'll find yourself looking at books, and most likely taking a seat at one of the desks to do some work. This is a solid escape where you get what you expect. There are no wow-factors or truly unique puzzles, but on the other hand, there's nothing too abstract or any major flaws. I recommend this room as an above average fun thematic experience.
