Bank Heist Room
Step into a 1930s prohibition-era bank vault transformed into a thrilling escape challenge. Participants must uncover a bootlegger's secret formula while evading returning mobsters. This medium-difficulty room accommodates 2-8 players and features historically inspired puzzles that test teamwork and problem-solving skills. Located in our downtown facility, it combines immersive storytelling with interactive elements like working telephones and mechanical locks.
Prison Break Room
Experience a high-stakes prison escape with 75 minutes to orchestrate your breakout. This hard-difficulty room for 2-8 players simulates a maximum-security prison environment with timed guard patrols and complex mechanical puzzles. Located downtown, it features multiple interconnected spaces requiring coordinated problem-solving. The experience emphasizes strategic planning and group collaboration under pressure with progressive difficulty levels.
Home Alone Room
Recreate the classic movie's defensive booby traps in this medium-easy themed room. Designed for 2-8 players at our Valley View Mall location, this Christmas-themed challenge requires locating a backup phone while navigating cinematic obstacles. The wheelchair-accessible room includes movie-accurate props and age-appropriate puzzles, with a brief scene containing mild cartoonish violence that may require parental discretion.
Lost Teddy Room
Designed specifically for children aged 6-10, this easy-difficulty room challenges young players to find a missing teddy bear in 45 minutes. Located at Valley View Mall, it accommodates 2-6 children with at least one adult supervisor.

Available at both locations, the program accommodates up to 38 students downtown or 28 at Valley View Mall.

My husband, daughter and I tried an escape room for the first time this past weekend. When we entered Nick greeted us and showed us a short video of what to expect. We were then taken to the room and given the story of what was taken place. We did (not me!) Ok for the first time, especially since Nick said Prison Break was one of the harder ones. We were far from finishing but he made us feel better! It was a lot of fun and we plan on going back in a few months, but trying an easier one! Everyone was very helpful and friendly. We highly recommend La Crosse Escape room!

Recently visited the new Bootleggers Pub room. It was a GREAT experience. We had 6 in our group and we were all able to participate. Erik is a great host! Highly recommend this room.

We had an issue during our escape. I reached out to the owner via email and he took the matter serious enough to call me to discuss the issue that evening. Talk about Customer Service First Class! Besides our hiccups, our group had a great time. If the other rooms are as much fun as the one we did, I highly recommend La Crosse Escape Room to anyone looking for a good time. Hopefully we will be back in the area next year and we can do another room.
