Fun place in an area that desperately needs fun things to do. This is a comprehensive gaming library with open gaming for $5 a person and inexpensive snacks and beverages. Great social setting with friendly, helpful staff. They also have two escape rooms!
Update: Under new ownership now, but still as great as ever. Try their hot chocolates, on a chill day as winter comes, for a really cute surprise!!!

Exciting escape room action. Harder than expected, mentally, not bad physically. Lots of excitement, friendly staff...a great Friday night!

First off, this was really fun! I like the people working (though he seemed a bit odd, he was nice) and the place was clean and inviting. My 2 friends, my fiance and I did the Dinosaur one and it was pretty cool, but it was a little hard first starting. We knew we needed to look for hints and clues to move on but we found so many things within the first 5 minutes but had absolutely no idea what one to start with. We were told after this was not a beginners escape room which was fine, maybe we should have asked first. But all in all it was fun and I definitely want to do it again.

Had a good time but didnt escape. All in all was fun just a little on the cheap side. Had to solve something and we were given 3 markers that DID NOT work at all so that would have been helpful for multiple things. Other then that was fun and waiting for the next room to open!

Stopped here while on our roadtrip while scavenging Ohio for things to do. We struck gold here. This was so much fun and the milkshakes were, as promised, addictive! The staff was so helpful (thank you Ben) and managed to put up with our hectic games of Nemo memory and spot it! An absolute treasure!

It was extremely fun. The room master was very in character and added a lot to the experience. I went with my mom and little brother, and we finished one of the rooms (dinosaur land) in 57 minutes. It was not too easy and was not to hard. The overall theme of this escape room was appealing to all ages. If you would like to do a different room, they have multiple options. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to have a good time.

We were looking for something to do on the weekend and discovered this place just a short trip from home. The Dino Island escape room was a blast. We had so much fun here and cant wait for them to add a new room so we can do another escape room!
