THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE MOST TRASHY PLACE IVE EVER BEEN! From the OWNER TO THE STAFF! BEWARE!! DO NOT USE THIS ESCAPE ROOM! THE OWNER DARREN IS A NIGHTMARE! DO NOT GO! SOLD ESCAPE ROOM GIFT CARD but yet told me my gift card did not pay for the complete interaction which was a total of 98 dollars and my gift card was good for 125 dollars, for some reason I still owed 10 dollars for tax. Im not math wiz but that does not add up!

This place is so fun! Cody was the perfect Game Master and our first experience was both exhilarating and full of challenges. Our group is already planning our next visit to another room. So worth it!

We always have a great time here, I think we've got one or two rooms left to do across both locations! My wife and I just did the haunted manor on a date (just the 2 of us) and it was genuinely scary - perfect for spooky season! Great staff, you can tell they all really enjoy the fun they can have!

My family and I have done every single escape room in Albuquerque and all of NMER's rooms are top notch! These are seemingly movie set quality rooms that fully immerse you in the story. They have rooms for all kinds of tastes. Bombshell and Blackwell manor are must do's! My only complaint is that we've run out of rooms to do, that's not to say we haven't re-run several of them! Definitely give them a try!!

I've done dozens of escape rooms, and the two I did at New Mexico Escape Rooms (Bombshell and Blackwell Manor) were undoubtedly among my favorites. The rooms were all extremely well-made, challenging, clean and super fun!
