8-Bit Escape is one of the best rooms we've ever done at any escape room. Super fun, incredibly clever, and so much thought put into each and every detail. Can't wait to do more of their rooms soon.

Definitely recommend. So much detail went into creating the puzzles & the rooms! We were impressed!

BTW, all rooms are private (they won't put you in a room with strangers), they had us wash hands before we went into the room & masks were required in the lobby.

We did 8-Bit Escape and it was fantastic! This was our third room here (we'd previously done the Star Wars room and the Batman villains room). My husband (a huge video game fan) and I felt like we were transported back in time to our childhood in the '80s. The nostalgia almost made me tear up. Our 10 year old daughter and teenage son and nieces loved the room as well and got a little glimpse into the toys, music, and games of "the old days." We've done a lot of escape rooms and this was by far one of the best. Nothing like mixing the feeling of accomplishment in escaping

I did an escape room once from this company in Richmond! I was so excited to see other locations. I saw that Room 213 was ending this weekend and I had to hop on and try before it was gone forever. Room 213 was FRIGHTENING but that speaks volumes to the amount of details and heart and soul that was put into the room. I loved everything about it (when I wasn't screaming). The flashing lights, sounds, and my god the last room...that's gonna haunt me. It felt like a movie set & everything was so intricate. Shout out to our game master for leading us through the puzzles when we were epically
