Escape game Buccaneer Bay

Reviews of escape game "Buccaneer Bay"

• It was really fun and challenging. They missed giving us a few pointers (like that we could ask for a clue if we were stumped) which was a little frustrating. Overall, really fun night.

• Went to Exit Calgary for the first time tonight. The staff were exceptionally friendly and very pleasant, greeting us as we came into the lobby.
  
  While the room was reset from the previous group we got a thorough instruction on every type of lock we would encounter and how to operate them. The majestic Captain Blonde Beard (Ryan) gave us the thematic intro to set the scene and then we began. The puzzles were challenging enough that solving them took time, effort and everyone working together. This made solving them really rewarding and way more fun. However, there was enough guidance from the clues and room set up to make a logical and easy pattern to follow of which puzzles to solve in which order.
  
  The place was really easy to get to with the parkade in the joined building provided plenty of parking. Being walking distance from the train lines didn't hurt either. Definitely planning on going back through again when I can.

• Exit Calgary was my first escape room I've ever done and it was fantastic. The service was phenomenal straight off the bat as soon as we walked in, with super friendly staff. Ryan was amazing, and I enoyed hearing him talk about his work at Exit Calgary. Even though I've only done one room so far, the passion Ryan displayed showed that great thought went into each and every room, with the employees taking into careful account what puzzles worked and what puzzles didn't work for a challenging yet friendly user experience.
  
  We were also reminded frequently that if we needed hints, the staff were always there to help. Ryan and his lovely coworker would come and give us helpful advice while still making it vague enough to let the gears in our head continue thinking. It really is a fun place for first time escapees to go!
  
  Ryan also gave a hilarious and quick backstory to the room before we were locked in. He made for great laughs and even chatted with us after our hour was up. You don't get that at the majority of places, and his ability to fluidly joke with people he just met is astounding. Amazing crew with an amazing room! I will definitely be back to escape their other rooms! Brilliant way to end the day with a group of friends and I'm glad it was here!! I highly recommend it, even if you have absolutely no idea how to outrun a giant man-eating octopus!
