  • Here’s what you do sent me!

    Oh my word, I love this podcast so much! I have been binge listening to the extent that I have started taking on an Aussie accent. For a Saffie this is devastating, but totally worth it. I am yet to actually sit down and try and solve a room, but just listening to Bill and Dani solve it with their guests is like sitting back and listening to friends do all the heavy lifting while they entertain you. Thank you for the incredible effort you put into doing these!

  • Love it!

    This podcast is just the best. Bill and Dani are delightful people who create a fun, supportive atmosphere where people can be silly and solve puzzles. They are so creative (Dani’s rooms and Bill’s music and silly bits) and amazing at community-building among people who love puzzles and roleplaying.

Joseph Stamps says he has played about 75 escape rooms, designed rooms including mobile versions, playtested the show's guest season and attended room-escape events in Los Angeles and Laval.
Podcast This Escape - Tomb Room
Q: Is there any part of this puzzle that you perhaps thought we would get a lot quicker, or one that you thought took us a lot longer than it should have?
Dani says the solve largely unfolded as expected, but Zane and Peebr note that they overlooked the pillars at first. The creators also say the players found the fire-and-ice opposites faster than expected.
Podcast This Escape - Tomb Room
Q: Were there any moments you were most proud of yourselves, where you felt like you did good?
Peebr points to connecting the family members with the body parts as the team's biggest eureka. Zane highlights recognizing the “do not cross” tape, and both describe how their different problem-solving styles complemented each other.
