Had a great time in the pirate room. The level of difficulty felt just right. The puzzles were interesting but rewarding, and the change of scenery from room to room really helped.

My sister, cousins, and I booked the Initiation room and had an absolute blast!! There was plenty for all four of us to do and we made it out with 13 minutes to spare. The puzzles were challenging but it was a lot of fun for the four of us to figure out together. Highly recommend!! Well be back for the pirates themed room

This place was so fun. I went with my kids 13 and 11. I was afraid we wouldn't be able to finish it but we did and we had so much fun. It was just the right difficulty for them.

My wife and I did the pirate escape room and it was awesome! We had some frustrating moments but only because we overlooked certain parts. Definitely unique and the puzzles were all a part of the theme which is what I look for when it comes to escape rooms. As for the theme/decorations they were some of the best I've seen!

This place was super fun!! My girlfriend and some friends of ours participated in the Illuminati Room, and that was such a fun experience! All the rules are explained and you have 2 difficulty choices. Either receive hints when you're falling behind, or only get hints when requested. The puzzles are really good and it definitely took some brainwork!! Also, the owner was extremely nice and friendly. This place was super welcoming overall, and our group definitely plans to come again for the other room! (To the owner, I'm the guy from the Home Depot group :D)

Best escape room experience yet! My boyfriend, friends and I came to Nerdy by Nature and had the best time! The escape room was so fun! The puzzles were challenging and satisfying to complete. The owner was so nice, friendly and funny! He definitely helped make the experience much more enjoyable! We are planning on coming back to complete the other room! I would definitely recommend!
