Pirate ShipwreckSure Lock Escapes – Cypher Island (Renton)Escape roomIRLSure Lock does it again! This is our 9th(?) room with them and they never disappoint. Great ambiance, wonderful variety of puzzles and excellent customer service. I also liked how each room within the experience was unique. It kept us engaged and working. Our family of four always had something to do.
Dive To AtlantisThe Escape Artist - West SeattleEscape roomIRLSure Lock does it again. I think this is our 8th room between their 3 locations. They’ve all been great. This one had great ambience and unique puzzles. I always appreciate rooms that bring the experience to a natural climax regardless of the time of escape. They get how to do this well.
The Secret LabLocked In EdinburghEscape roomIRLThis was our favorite room for the amount of puzzles and variety of puzzles. There is A-LOT to do which made it really challenging for 4 people. But we had so much fun. The staff were amazing too! In the top 3 out of the 35 rooms we’ve done. Extraordinary experience!
The Pirates Cove4 Dreams Escape - BellevueEscape roomIRLZero story. Missing puzzle pieces and clunky mechanics. At one point we got a magnet stuck in the wrong place (even though it was the same shape). Also, we placed a separate item in the correct spot but it’s supposed to be turned around which did not match the outline. Then, I accidentally completed the final puzzle to end the game and leap frogged three other puzzles. It f I could guess the final puzzle from the limited clue then it was obviously not a good puzzle. Finally, the employee was awesome but clearly placed in an unfair position having to facilitate multiple rooms at once while simultaneously greeting visitors walking in from the mall. One of the worst rooms we’ve done. Really not good.
Lombino's CasinoIn Search Of An ExitEscape roomIRLOur fam has done 35 rooms and this ranked as #4! (Just a few from Escape Hour ranked higher) Immersive story, and such a unique use of 80’s nostalgia. And what a first impression! We knew right away this one was gonna be memorable. Excellent host too. Outstanding experience!
Midnight ManorEscape Hour Gig HarborEscape roomIRLAs always, Escape Hour delivers. I think this is our 4th room with them. It’s he first room to not force us to crawl or climb if that gives you an indication of how high the bar is for their experiences. Probably our least favorite of the 4 but this room is miles above the others we’ve done with most other companies. As always, excellent customer service, ambience and unique game play. Just can’t go wrong with escape hour.
Cypherspace - CLOSEDReality Break EscapesEscape roomIRLThe rooms had A LOT of pad locks. Like, A LOT! It would have been nice to advance through the rooms through other means. We like the speak easy one much better. And the service is excellent.
Guardians' GroveSure Lock Escapes – Cypher Island (Renton)Escape roomIRLAnother great one from Sure Lock. I think this is our 6th room with them. This is the longest timed room in Washington and definitely one of the most challenging ones we’ve faced. Before we started, I loved how the host asked us how we’d like our clues? We opted for them not to share any with us until we ask and that was a nice customization of the experience. Immersive environment with unique puzzles as always with sure lock. My only negative on this one was that the wood panels in the last room were very difficult to read- even with our phone cameras on. Overall, just an excellent experience.
Spell StruckThe Escape Artist - West SeattleEscape roomIRLSure Lock does it again! We celebrated our 30th room together by heading over to their newest location in West Seattle. We had already done nearly all the other rooms in their Renton and Kent locations and this one did not disappoint. Great ambience from the moment you enter the lobby. Impeccable customer service, unique puzzles, fun surprises and enough to do for all three of us at once. Just so nice to find a local company with such high standards. We know if it’s a sure lock room, it’s gonna be good.
Dungeon of DoomSure Lock Escapes - Stout Oak Adventuring Guild (Kent)Escape roomIRLOut of 29 rooms as a fam, this was asily in our top 5 all time faves! Surelock is quickly becoming a brand we can count on for unique experiences, creative puzzles, amazing ambience, and outstanding customer service. I think this our 4th surelock room and our favorite!
Mayan DoomsdayThink Tank Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLDefinitely in our top 7 favorite rooms. Immersive, and flowed well. Loved the clue system that didn’t yank you out of the story. Each room was different. Loved the different puzzles that were each unique and fun. Really excellent experience. Oh, and free parking!
Trixie's Tavern TrialsSure Lock Escapes - Stout Oak Adventuring Guild (Kent)Escape roomIRLWe’ve done 2 rooms at their Renton location and couldn’t wait to try their Kent location. It did not disappoint. We loved rhe D&D themes and I think this new location is even better! A+ customer service too. One of our very favorite rooms in all of Washington!
The CondemnedEnigma Escapes WAEscape roomIRLOverall really good and in our top 10. Scary, but not distracting. Wish there were multiple rooms but they really made the most of the room we were in. Highly recommend.

Scooby-Doo™ and the Spooky Castle AdventureEscapology - San DiegoEscape roomIRLUnique scooby game play and atmosphere. You’ll enjoy whether you’re a scooby fan or not. Lots of video which we don’t prefer but is typical in franchise style escape rooms
Mystery At Innsmouth: An Official Arkham Horror Escape Room - CLOSEDHourglass EscapesEscape roomIRLDefinitely top 5 escape rooms in Seattle Metro. The story is exceptional, very immersive and unique puzzles. Loved that it was NOT linear. Allowed our group to split up and work on various different puzzles at once. Maybe not ideal for beginners.
Escape From Camp Haystack - CLOSEDCannon Beach Escape RoomEscape roomIRLOverall, just not great. Not a multi-room, and nothing original or memorable
The DepthsThe Escape Game - NYC MidtownEscape roomIRLVery immersive and story driven. We got stuck several times at key codes and locks where we had the right answer but it didn’t open or work for some reason. Overall, it was pretty good though.
Siren's CoveEscape Hour Point RustonEscape roomIRLYou just can’t go wrong with ANY of the escape rooms at any either of the Escape Hour locations. High quality, immersive and unique
