Latest reviews of escape rooms in the United States

What an amazing first escape room experience! We were celebrating a friend’s birthday, and none of us had ever done an escape room before. Kevin was AWESOME! From the very beginning, he was welcoming, professional, patient, and incredibly detailed in explaining everything we needed to know to plan our escape.

Kevin’s personality made the experience even better. He kept it fun and exciting while making sure we understood what we were doing without giving too much away. You could tell he genuinel

AHHH! This was a great experience and super scary! I think it was kind of messed up of them to have a little girl die but overall it was great. If you like horror jump scares this is definitely for you.

It’s been about a year since we tried to play this room, but the mass amount of steep stairs leading into the building prevented one of my friends from getting up there, as she uses a wheelchair. There is no warning of this as you’re booking the room. The only place it’s listed is in an FAQ section on their website that you have to go out of your way to look at. They then refused to refund our money, only offering credit(which they removed from my account later) and responded in emails nastily.

Took nine 12/13 year olds for a party. They had a blast. Val was wonderful and helpful for them. Will definitely be back.

My wife and I did this one.

We had a good time, there are 13 puzzles you have to solve before you get to the last one. Some of them are relatively simple, a few are head scratchers.

We had an hour to beat it and finished right before time ran out at around two and a half minutes.

Lots of fun.

I normally don't leave negative reviews, but I'm very disappointed with how this situation has been handled. During our visit, my friend was told his card didn't go through, so I paid the $42 charge with my debit card. It later turned out that his card had actually gone through, so we were both charged for the same visit.

I called and was told to wait to see if the charge would drop off, which I did. After it posted, I called back and was told they couldn't even see the transactions from that
