This is my escape room blog. I am a New Zealander who has done over 250 rooms throughout New Zealand, Australia, Singapore and the USA. I have worked in the IT industry all my working life and work for a Mobile Carrier in New Zealand for the last couple of years. I run a number of Domain Names such as http://www.unlockit.co.nz which set mobile Carrier settings for iPhones. (Don't worry if you don't understand about this)

Company: Playlab @ Rainbows End in Manukau , Auckland Website: https://rainbowsend.co.nz/rainbow-playlab/escape-rooms Rooms: Time Traveler Address: 2 Clist Cres, Manukau, Auckland 2104 The Time Travelers room (Or should I call it the "Not Doctor Who Room") with 4 others and got out on Hard in just over time. The theming/decor of the room was good but the rest of let it down . The entire place was so loud with arcade machines (It is inside an Arcade/Entertainment place) and it was very hard to hear the introduction and communicate with people during the game. It had only been open for 2 weeks and a couple of things were already broken. I few puzzles didn't work correctly (door which didn't open except with force and things didn't trigger properly when we finished them ) and lots of random searching with no logic at all.

Company: Escape Masters - Manukau Website: https://escapemasters.co.nz/en/locations/nz-auckland-manukau Rooms: Submarine Address: Unit 13C, 613 Great South Road, Manukau Auckland, New Zealand Just finished Submarine at Escape Masters Manakau. I have done most of their other rooms at their other locations. One of their better rooms but absolutely hate the get a clue via a QR code. The clues have never helped and usually are as cryptic as the puzzles. If you need help you have to call the GM into the room, tell them were your up to and they'll help. OK immersion and puzzles. They describe it as their hardest room and looking at times that other people got, it is. My wife and I did it just over time on Hard Level (suggested 5-8 people) so suggest enthusiasts do in Hard mode or Masters level (which I presume they add more puzzles). The room has been open for maybe 6 months and has a couple of issues which have probably been there from day one and could be fixed quite easily
