The rooms are interesting and really fun! We started with one of them and arrived at completing all. Their games are addictive and with a lot of surprises on the way. My favourite was Maniac - a combination of horror, fun and laughter!

When we arrived the staff was somehow acting strange knowing that we want to do Blue Cave. We thought it was mostly about the skill, but probably even they knew how broken the room was. While we were waiting, people in other rooms were calling for clues and they did not even bother to answer.
The room was poorly done with obvious cheap materials. The sound was hard to understand, you would waste time to listen again and again to get each word. The automatic room works really bad, things were stuck. In an escape room there should be no "you might block this, so you have to start over or close other privious doors".
We wasted about 20 minutes because one puzzle was stuck and in the end we got a 1 euro discount for that, even if the room is very expensive for what it gives. After having multiple problems with puzzles not working, the staff told us "sorry it was my fault when i assembled the room" and "yea sometimes the room gets stuck, it's like a teenage girl", and yet a very low "discount".
If it was only for the room, I would advise anyone to avoid the Blue Cave, but taking into consideration how unprofessional the staff was, I recommend avoiding the whole place. There are other escape rooms in Bucharest that we tried after, which are cheaper and give you an amazing experience and show that people are creating them out of passion, not only for money like in this one.

We played in the Garden room and we were very disappointed: it is not linear, it has nothing automated, it is completely chaotic and it is poor quality. It would have been okay if the clues were just difficult, not stupid. Many clues are just a waste of time. We didn't like anything in the room at all, plus the staff seemed scared. I don't know what unfortunate experiences they had, but they asked us to pay 20 % advance to book the room, which never happened anywhere else.

We did the blue cave in 5 persons. The room has issues, it's kinda broken. At the 2nd puzzle, a mechanism wouldn't release after it was solved, so they had to get us out of the room to reset the computer..
Had another broken box in the room, but they warned us about it.
At another puzzle, some doors would not open with correct combo, because "you should have kept the other doors closed".. no clue anywhere about that.
All in all, quite a frustrating room, but at least they gave us 20% off, for all the broken stuff.
Room Journey is very boring, to say frankly.
Great rooms i actually enjoyed: Enygma and Maniac

After visiting some VERY entertaining escape rooms, I was eager to visit this one, but I was disappointed. The furniture was probably the old one existing in the room, with very few adjustments. The clues were in my opinion chaotic and incomplete, the hint system odd and ineffective, there was no music (so we heard what was going on in the lobby...). I think the "escapers" want to enjoy a different experience and to have fun. I'm sorry, but I had no fun.

Considering how many good and really good rooms are in Bucharest I wouldn't lose my time one more time with Mystery Rooms. I've tried the Journey room. The story sounds good and there's where the interesting part ends.
The design of the room is rather minimalist with only one or two objects that you can consider beeing part of the story. It's sad that they use the locks that you have on your office drawer (and I'm sure that one key will open another drawer as well if you try as these are almost standard) plus a 2 locks drawer, just to make sure you won't open the drawer with another key.
I'm not sure they really have a supervising system. The way you get the clues is at most strange (I'd say is bad): you have on one wall 5 mail-boxes and you select the clue you want depending on where you think you stand on the timeline of the room. Plus each box has a number of points and when you enter the room you have a number of points. You can't take more clues (summing the points from each mailboxc) than the maximum number of points you have. But it's not clear what happens if you do; or if you take a clue that you already solved.
Also something strange: you have a cell-phone in the room so to ask the "supervisor" for support if you're stuck. It's such a pitty to pay the same price (or more) compared to what you pay in a room that is really good supervised. Mystery Room guys: this is not right!
The puzzles are somehow interesting and almost half of them are story-related. The room is said to be liniar, but at some level one puzzle gives clues for next 2 puzzless. I've rated Poor and not Terrible just for the puzzles.
Until they change the way they supervise the rooms - or charge less as they give less compared to other rooms - I won't be back.

Very disappointing. Room décor average but adequate. Some puzzles were good, others completely illogical or so vague and lack of signposting made them frustrating. Some tech not working, one game room not reset correctly (key left in a padlock and even on querying before we started if it was supposed to be there, it remained and then at the end we were told the key should have been removed and placed elsewhere to be found at the right time). Hosting and debrief poor. Overall, not a great experience and we left feeling deflated.

We were 2 teams in Conspiracy rooms ....
Our third escape room in Bucharest ....the first two were amazingly good but at the Mystery rooms we were disappointed.
The clues are ineffective and one was actually missing (we solved the puzzle but the clue wasn't there !!)
Rooms very dirty and with some incredible old furniture from Ceausescu time !! I understand that the story is in Mexico but still at least a broom should be the minimum cleaning ....
Go to other escaperooms in Bucharest not here ....I will not say names but there are others with some amazing puzzles and wonderful staff !
