My family of 5 did not have a positive experience. I have three teens and not only was this an expensive outing, but they did not enjoy it. We have done many escape rooms on vacations and this was by far the worst one we have done. The gentleman who ran the shop was not pleasant and we could hardly understand him when he gave clues. He was incredibly rude when one of my kids did not understand a clue and he burst into the room and opened the lock for him. We ended up not escaping and when the timer went off, he came in to explain everything we did wrong. He was condescending when my husband asked

This was the best experience ever! We did the Cell Block escape room. I laughed so hard throughout our experience and I CANNOT WAIT to go back! Very well put together, you can tell a lot of hard work and thought goes into making these rooms. The owner was super nice and very informative. If you are looking for something to do with the family or a group of friends, this is an amazing experience and would highly recommend!

We did the Tomb Raider room with 2 adults and a 10 year old. We have done probably 20 different escape rooms and this one was very well done! We didn't make it out, but had lots of fun! Definitely give it a try.

The owner is awesome! He was quick to engage with us, extremely knowledgeable on his theme for the room we played (Deadpool), and checked on us periodically if we got stuck with what to do next. While we didn't escape from the room, it was an enjoyable challenge and I would recommend iEscape to anyone else who is vacationing/visiting the area.
