1992cruiser Posted October 24, 2017 #1 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Just went to register for the Escape room on Harmony and it's now $20. From free to $9 to $20 in a year...Hate to see the price in 2020. Anyone that has done it, is it worth it? I've done the land based ones, but wondering if this is cruise shortened?

Biker19 Posted October 24, 2017 #2 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It now includes a free drink so you can think better to solve the puzzle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1992cruiser Posted October 24, 2017 Author #3 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It now includes a free drink so you can think better to solve the puzzle. That will come in handy since everyone in my group has the drink package. Wonderful add on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarea Posted October 24, 2017 #5 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I suspect they raised the price to enhance the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1992cruiser Posted October 24, 2017 Author #6 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Inb4 "If you can't afford $20, then you shouldn't be cruising! " This is without a doubt the dumbest thing I've read today. My point was that it went from free to $9 to $20 in a year. I can afford it just like I can afford the room service charge that was free just like many other things that were free and now aren't. I'm asking if it's worth it? For our group, it ends up costing us $160. If it's not worth it, we will just pass and spend that money on a couple of bingo cards....

Biker19 Posted October 24, 2017 #9 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I'm asking if it's worth it? Only you can determine that. RCI must think so if the market will bear $20. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevinyork Posted October 24, 2017 #10 Share Posted October 24, 2017 We did it on Anthem when it was free. Had a great time but probably wouldn’t have paid $40 for both of us. It’s worrying that activities/entertainment are becoming chargeable however I guess they can do it because of the limited numbers the escape room can accommodate.

1992cruiser Posted October 24, 2017 Author #11 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Only you can determine that. RCI must think so if the market will bear $20. I'm guessing the new price just started? I went ahead and booked it because the reviews I could find are pretty good. Much like specialty restaurants, I wonder if they are just gonna keep raising the price until it's empty and they have to give away discounts to fill it.

renza Posted October 24, 2017 #14 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I paid $9 each for 6 of us in June. I didn't even think it was worth that. Sent from my iPhone using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dwayneb236 Posted October 24, 2017 #15 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I thought the Harmony escape room was great and don't personally feel it needed any enhancements. Guess it's been pretty popular so they feel they can get away with raising the price. Not sure I would have paid that price when I went. But who knows.

Jerseygirl1416 Posted October 24, 2017 #16 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I went to an Escape room on land with a group of friends. Wasn’t my thing. I pretty much sat on the couch in the room and chatted with another friend who wasn’t into it either. Just not my thing so no I wouldn’t think $20 was worth it....YMMV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i guess they got me:eek: To clarify im talking about escape the rubicon on harmony(3 march 2018) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NateUpNorth Posted October 24, 2017 #20 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It's Royal! Just wait for the deals. Second person 50% off with third and fourth guests each 25% off......... you'll get the price down to about......... $20 per person...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BNBR Posted October 24, 2017 #21 Share Posted October 24, 2017 It's Royal! Just wait for the deals. Second person 50% off with third and fourth guests each 25% off......... you'll get the price down to about......... $20 per person...... :') We booked the escape room a couple of week ago but had to step aside and pick up the screaming little one 10 feet away in the camp. My parents ended up staying and doing the escape room and enjoyed the experience. $20/pp seems a tad pricey to me but if it was just 2 of us I don't think I'd mind spending $40. Dropping $160 for a larger group gets a little more dicey on the value. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Tina Posted October 24, 2017 #23 Share Posted October 24, 2017 I've done a lot of land based escape rooms, and also the one on Harmony, and I wouldn't pay $19 for the Harmony escape room. I don't think it was worth that. Maybe (just maybe) it's worth $14.99. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peeker28 Posted October 24, 2017 #24 Share Posted October 24, 2017 Well this is depressing news. I was hoping to sign 6 of us up for our Harmony cruise next June but if it's $20/person I might just pass. What is included with the increase in price?

Big_G Posted October 24, 2017 #25 Share Posted October 24, 2017 We did it on Harmony but I can't remember what we paid. Glad I tried it but wouldn't do it again even for free. Some people take it WAY to seriously. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
