This was a second date night for me and my guest. We had so much fun! This led us to a third date!
Honestly, it was a total blast. It was challenging and we did ask for help once in a while. Overall it was a great time. This was my first time and my dates second attempt at escape room. We plan to do this again ! Great job Maine Escape Games!

Such a much fun experience! We had a great group of friends celebrating 3 consecutive birthdays! The staff were very helpful. I wish we had a hint of a way to start upon entering our room. It took the whole lot of us just touching and looking around to figure out what we're doing or to find a puzzle to solve. We eventually figured it out and we had some unexpected surprises throughout our experience. (All good, happy ones)
We will absolutely be back soon and would love to compete all the rooms!
Did I mention that we made it?! That's right, with 4 seconds to spare baby! My advice: don't sit

This was our first time at an escape room. We took our 11 year old and 4 of his friends for his birthday. We have a blast! We did Uncle Neds Cabin. It was incredibly well designed. Super impressive. I also loved how they monitor what is going on to help you along with just the right amount of hints. It was a wonderful experience for all of us. We cant wait to try out more of their rooms!

My family and I visited Maine Escape Games to play Uncle Neds Cabin. My 10 year old and two teenagers IMMENSELY enjoyed themselves!!! My husband and my brother and I loved it as well! We arent avid escape game goers but after today, we want to be! Everything was clean, the staff was kind and helpful, and of course the puzzles in the game were awesome! Highly recommend and definitely coming back!!!

This was our first time participating in an escape room experience. It was so much fun. We went with a group of 8 and it was a blast. Very clean. The young woman at the front desk was very pleasant and friendly and even took pictures. I would highly recommend this escape room if in South Maine.
