From what I remember The Extraction got the second most votes in the TERPECAs for a game at Crypto Escape and that’s probably fair. We didn’t get on with the puzzles, but the set design and story was pretty impressive. It’s hard to make a game that is perfect for everyone and I’d guess that many people will play this one and love the puzzles – each to their own.

Crypto Escape: Below Zero (Newmarket, ON)
Set design was once again superb. Crypto Escape have really mastered the art of building escape rooms. We found the puzzles got a little repetitive at times, but we still enjoyed Below Zero and it’s worth playing just for the tech and the experience.
Crypto Escape: Cursed Temple (Newmarket, ON)
Although Cursed Temple isn’t as highly decorated with awards as some of the other games at Crypto Escape, this was my favourite of the three games we were able to fit into our visit. Of course, I might be biased thanks to my love of temple raiding games, but I think it had more to do with the solid, satisfying game play, underpinned by a decent storyline.
