My coworkers and I decided to enjoy an evening out together and decided on a escape room. A few of us had been to different escape rooms while the rest had never been to an escape/ puzzle room before. We went to Complexity in Farmington,CT and decide to do the most challenging room “The Mall”. The Mall was very challenging, complex, entertaining, at times frustrating, fun, and just plain amazing. Our group of 7 all participated and everyone helped out to solve the clues. We did have to ask for some clues from the staff, but were proud of ourselves for completing all tasks with 1:04 minutes left to spare. Truly a mind boggling and fun time for all of us. We are definitely going back in the near future. The staff at Complexity were knowledgeable, kind, enthusiastic, and brilliant to develop such a clever themed puzzle room. The place was clean and the staff was very accommodating when some of of group was running late. Truly a must for all age groups- just choose the best room for your skilled group.
