What a fun fun experience! We wanted to try something different for my mom's birthday and since it's so hard to shop for people that have everything, we thought an experience would be a fun. A few of us had done escape rooms before, so we made sure to reiterate that tensions can run high when time starts to run out and we would just have to really be kind to each other while we are locked in a room together. I wish I could remember the name of the game master because he was delightful. He had such a great personality and immediately engaged us in conversation while other member

Definitely not the best escape room but it was a fun family activity. We did the attic room and lots of the items were pretty ran down or broken, lots of distraction clues and very chaotic for it only being one room. Probably won't return to this specific location unless some updates are done.

This was my first time doing an escape room. My sister-in-law accidentally booked their hardest room. They love escape rooms, and wanted to do one with us. We had a large group, but the room itself was big enough. It was very challenging! We needed several clues. Just when we thought it was completed, we opened the door to a second room. Lol! The guy working was so kind and patient with us. He never kicked us out, even after 2 hours. We finally gave up when we were too tired and hungry. He explained all the rest of the clues and solutions. Overall, it was a fun experience for people who like puzzles
