Lucky Dice Diner
Expedition Escape
Escape room
IRL
This diner escape room had me jivin' and wailin' – it's easily cruised into my top 5 after hittin' 22 rooms! Really enjoyed the unique puzzles, especially all the physical objects needed to move into places. The whole set-up looked like it hopped straight outta a 50s flick. Sure, it wasn't the toughest joint in town, but that just meant more time to have a blast! Our gamesmaster was a real doll – super friendly and even took us through the whole game after we busted out. Ditch The Big Mall and head over here, cats! You won't regret it!
Ghost Light
Myss Tic Rooms
Escape room
IRL
Some unique puzzles and mechanisms in the room that were all on point with the theme. The very few locks they had were old timey that fit the room's time period. Touching ending that will stay with me long after I've played this room. Easy to see why it's won awards year after year. Worth the trip out to Brooklyn - 25 mins on subway from Theatre District. Perfectly themed if you're in New York City to see a Broadway show.

Playground
The Escape Game
Escape room
IRL
We had a ball (literally) at the Playground escape room, and it's rolled into my husband's Top 5 Rooms played ⚽️ The Playground room at The Escape Game is perfect for adults looking for a challenge. Despite the school theme, the puzzles are complex, high tech and require teamwork. Many memorable elements, especially two at the end. I'd suggest at least four teammates to be able to get all the puzzles done in time. We had a family of five, that we didn't know, join us in the room. The kids were especially helpful - the teenager immediately started in on a math puzzle, and the tween noticed some stuff in lower places where the adults hadn't looked. This room was tough and had LOTS to do, and without those additional people not sure if the two of us could have gotten out in time. Above and beyond customer service from the manager working the front desk. We mentioned we had done two rooms in another one of their locations, and she presented us with a The Escape Game Passport. We’ve subsequently carried it with us to another of their locations, and have used it to plan some future escape room centric vacations. Note that The Escape Game offers buy 3 get one free sales a few times a year around holidays, so if you're planning on doing multiple rooms or having multiple players in the future, it's worth trying to catch a sale from them.
Montauk Project
Myss Tic Rooms
Escape room
IRL
Nice variety of puzzles and mystery theme. Not too difficult with two experienced players. Game master Jen was great, we only needed one hint. If you're only doing one room at Myss Tic I recommend Ghost Light, but Montauk still better than some independent rooms I've done.
Yacht Heist
Total Escape
Escape room
IRL
Still in my Top 3 even after 19 rooms. Great immersion and theming. Lots of variety in the puzzles. The goal isn't just your standard "get out in an hour" which added to the enjoyment. High tech room which belies it's basement of an office building location. Highly recommend going if you live in the area or are just driving through NC on I-85 or I-40.
Dark Winters Night
Backstage Escape Games
Escape room
IRL
Fun theme and creepy vibe. Challenging room that took several hints to solve. Several puzzles were finicky to get to work. I’d recommend a max of 4 people for this room, even though they say it can fit 8. Our group had 7 and we were very cramp(us) in there, especially since 5 of the folks were strangers to us. Company didn't offer the option to pay for a private room for just me and my husband.
Timeliner: Train Through Time
The Escape Game - Myrtle Beach
Escape room
IRL
Timeliner wasn't just great, it was timeless! Even after 21 other escape rooms, it's our chronometer for the best room. We highly recommend it for teams looking for a fun and challenging escape room that will take them on a journey through history! The themed puzzles, creative use of props, and overall immersive atmosphere made it a truly enjoyable adventure. Each historical period we traversed offered puzzles that cleverly matched the theme of the different time periods. The ability to take photos during the game was a fun bonus! Note that we played Timeliner at The Escape Game in Myrtle Beach, but the company offers this room at some of their other locations as well.
Cosmic Crisis
The Escape Game - Brooklyn
Escape room
IRL
Cosmic Crisis is my #1 room played (with 22 currently played). A brilliant space/sci-fi theme that defies expectations through a clever subversion of a familiar trope. Many unique puzzle types. The clue system was different than anything else at The Escape Game that I've done (this was my 6th there). And that ending!!! 😢 One of the puzzles required a lot of back and forth with only two players; would have been easier with four to six people. Didn't take anything away from our experience, just know you're going to be running around a lot if you have two players. Highly recommend this one. Only available at a handful of their locations - worth heading over to Brooklyn for this if you'll be in New York City - 20 minute subway ride from the theatre district (then play Timeliner there too!) The team at The Escape Game in Brooklyn provided top-notch customer service, treating us like VIPs throughout our experience. City Point, where the room is located, boasts a fantastic food hall with a wide variety of delicious options. We highly recommend planning your visit around mealtime to enjoy their culinary offerings
Dracula
Nerd Escapes
Escape room
IRL
Was great experience for two people, any more than four I don't think there would be enough for everyone to do. Puzzles were linear, and often in two parts. Some of the mechanisms were a bit fiddly. Pleased with the puzzles creativity vs a bunch of locks. Great job staying on theme and it being spooky in parts.
Mysterious Mansion
Mysterious Mansion
Haunt
Haunted house
A very enjoyable and detailed year round haunted house. While the animatronics might not boast the latest tech, the overall set design is impressive. The aged aesthetic of the attraction being over 40 years old adds a layer of authenticity to the old haunted mansion theme, creating a genuinely spooky atmosphere. During our visit, the staff was attentive, ensuring a personalized spooky experience. We couldn't help but be entertained by the delighted screams from the group ahead, attracting the monsters our way for double the frights! Overall, The Mysterious Mansion is a thoroughly enjoyable experience for adults seeking a charmingly old-fashioned haunt. It's sure to be a hit with youngsters as well, offering a spooky adventure that won't give them nightmares afterwards.
