The Room – MAYAN
Description (from the company website):
After years of extensive research, we’ve discovered there is a hidden chamber containing valuable treasure deep within the confines of an ancient Mayan Temple. As the best team of archaeologists around, this task is very suitable for you! Documents on the history of this treasure state “those who conquer the four elements, will be granted passage” Beware, you must proceed with caution! With such a brittle structure we aren’t sure how long you’ll have until the ruins will collapse. You’ll get a cut of the profit if you make it out alive.
Overcome the obstacles, grab the treasure, and get out!
Difficulty (1-10): 5/5
Time Limit: 60 minutes
Cost: $35
Identifier: R1
Party Size: 3-10
Staging Area: Lobby is pretty small; just a counter and a few chairs.
Metro Access/Parking: No idea; I drove. I’m sure you could find a bus that runs nearby.

Hahaha, just kidding. I never actually did a pre-Mayan video!
This is the video we took just after we completed the room:
Note: The ERG were given the opportunity to try out this room for free, with the understanding that we would continue to provide an honest review and follow the same process we’ve used on all of our other ratings.
Logistics:
Description of the room: You walk into something that looks like it should be a the entrance to a temple in the jungle. It’s sparsely decorated and is primarily items needed for the room; very minimalist in that respect.
Understanding of the Mission: Solve the puzzles to discover the hidden treasure before the temple collapses.
Did We Escape: No, and totally pissed about it!
Time Remaining: :'(
Our Suggested Party Size: 4-6
Did the room challenge the entire team? Yes

Worth the time and money? Yes
Where to Eat/Drink Before/After:
