Temetra's Hex
Escape Hour Point Ruston
Escape room

Escape Hour really sets the bar in the Seattle/Tacoma area IMO. This was our 16th room (2 players) and unfortunately the first one we’ve been unable to finish. The gameplay is great, there’s just SO much to do that you really need to keep a fairly snappy pace, and we simply ran out of time. Despite our disappointment in not finishing, this was a fantastic room, easily one of the best we’ve done. Great atmosphere (but no jump scares), a variety of clever puzzles (in addition to traditional locks), some higher-tech stuff, and some really creative elements. A+. If the owners are reading this review, feel free to reach out with a second-chance discount! 😂 FYI, there is some crawling, climbing, and back-and-forth between the two, as well as some dim lighting. EDIT: We went back about a month later and did this room again and WE ESCAPED - but guys, we really thought we were crushing it (how could we not, on a second attempt?) and it STILL took us almost the whole 70 minutes! 😂 It was still so much fun, and even though it was a do-over, we still found stuff we’d missed on our first attempt through. There were lots of opportunities to switch roles on the tasks we remembered (so even those felt like a new experience), but I had forgotten so many of the clever little details (lights! sounds! smoke?!) that experiencing them again was just as fun as the first time. I think this is where EH really excels - every square inch of the space is on-theme, immersive, and just so well-done and clever. Truly top-notch.

One of the less impressive rooms I’ve been in from a set quality perspective so not super immersive, but enough lab-appropriate props that were integrated nicely into the puzzles. Lots of puzzles kept the two of us busy for the full hour, which we like. Lots of number locks. A single jump scare. I’d give it a solid B.

More challenging than the “Puppeteer” room at this location. Immersive, well-designed room that emphasizes puzzle-solving more than high-tech props (which was the case for the other room, too). Just a different feel than some of the rooms we’ve done that are number-lock heavy. I’d give it a solid A.

Less challenging than the “Eventide Departure” at this location, but still a well-designed room with decent puzzles that don’t overly rely on number locks. They describe it as an “old-school” type of room, and I’d agree. The two of us finished with time to spare and didn’t need any hints (a first for us), so I’d say it’s on the easier side (we’re experienced but don’t consider ourselves expert-level). Staff at this location are really friendly. B+.

Decent room with a nice variety of fun puzzles and only a few number locks. Easily finished with time to spare and only a few “nudges” needed. Part of the room was designed/decorated in an aesthetic that had nothing to do with the theme, so that was weird and took away from the immersion. Still, the puzzles were good, so I’d give it a solid B.

We’ve really been impressed with all of the rooms at this location, and we enjoyed this one, too. Their sets are top-notch IMO, and that really enhances the experience for us. The room felt pretty linear and had a good amount of different types of puzzles that kept the two of us busy for almost the whole hour. The countdown timer in the room is not only theme-appropriate but also adds to the sense of urgency. Loved it!
