Introduction
If you’re thinking of visiting an escape room soon, be sure to consider all options that the Orlando area has to offer. In this article, we’ll discuss the differences between The Escape Effect and Doldrick’s so that you can make a better-informed decision when reserving your next experience.
Doldrick’s offers escape rooms that are a mix of sizes. Graveyard Games and Redemption would work well for couples or trios.
The Escape Effect offers escape rooms of all different sizes too. At Odds With The Gods can comfortably work well with up to ten players especially because the escape room is relatively large and there’s plenty of challenges that players can attempt simultaneously. But if your team is smaller, you might appreciate a room like Fright Before Your Eyes, which can work well with up to six players.
Doldrick’s charges between $36.99 and $41.99 for a 60-minute experience based on the day of the week. Their 75-minute game costs between $42.99 and $47.99 based on the day.
The Escape Effect charges between $44.95 and $69.95 based on peak times and the duration of the escape room, which ranges from 75 minutes to 2 hours. If you bring the kids, you’ll enjoy special child rates too.
If you do the math, you’ll understand that you can pay less per hour at The Escape Effect. We also have a ton of everyday offers to help you get the best value!
At Doldrick’s, they offer difficulty ratings for each of their games. So, if you are a first-timer, you might choose to play the lower-rated Graveyard Games (5) instead of the higher-rated Red Sled Redemption (9) escape room.
At The Escape Effect, we do use difficulty ratings and we also have the ability to adjust the game’s challenge level based on your team’s experience. If you prefer that, please let your host know in advance.
Oh, and if you have kids, let your host know that too so we can make the appropriate adjustments! We’ve done things in the past like keeping the door open or turning up the lighting to make whomever requests it more comfortable.
If you went to a movie and it was over in 60 minutes, would you be satisfied?
Doldrick’s offers 3 escape rooms at 60 minutes (two of those used to be 45 minutes) and another that was raised to 75 minutes (from 60 minutes).
The Escape Effect was the first to introduce escape rooms longer than 60 minutes. In fact, A Knight To Escape runs a full two hours—it’s one of only two 2-hour escape rooms in the entire country! Additionally, our classic At Odds With The Gods and the anything-but-classic Fright Before Your Eyes run 90 minutes each!
Have you been convinced?
Of course, we hope you’ll select The Escape Effect for your next escape room. But even if you choose to play at Doldrick’s this time, we sincerely hope you enjoy yourselves. Escape rooms can be so much fun and after you’re done playing there, we hope you’ll be curious what’s behind door #2…
