This game was a lot of fun and our favorite for the day. There is a lot to do but it all makes sense and is intelligently done. There are some “Aha” moments that we had. It does get a little warm in there. Staff was great as usual.

Escape hour did it again. I love all their rooms and this one didn’t disappoint! Awesome scenery and fun puzzles.

This was a really great room! I’m glad we got to do this on our trip to Austin for escape rooms. (We were very sad that The Cabin wasn’t open on Tuesdays because we were most excited about doing that series.)

The sensor reader doesn’t work very well. We had to keep unplugging it and resetting it, so we lost a lot of time there.

Low visibility. Lots of stairs, climbing, and crawling. Walkie talkies are used, so hearing is necessary.

For this hour long experience, my hubby and I finished with 10 minutes over but I would still consider this a successful mission. This room was meant for a group of 4-5 to do. With two people, we had to work really fast and I’m so grateful that we had the time to see how the whole story plays out. The puzzles were enjoyable although the journal was not as helpful as we were lead to believe (so keep that in mind). The tech was pretty cool and allowed us to be fully immersed into the environment. Finally, as a pro tip, there will be a lot more crawling and moving back and forth than your usual escape room - so just assign someone in your group who does not mind small spaces and could physically do those things. Overall, a solid room! Thank you Kelsey and Paige for accommodating our time change since we were driving from Houston to Austin just to do this escape room. We would love to come back and do the other rooms (especially the Cabin series)!!!
Thank you for the thoughtful and detailed review of The Crypt. It’s impressive that the two of you took on the challenge and finished with time to spare - especially in a room designed for a larger group. We’re glad to hear the tech and immersive environment added to the experience, and we appreciate the heads-up you shared for future players. Thank you also for the shoutout to Kelsy and Paige - we’re happy they could help make your visit possible. We’d love to welcome you back for the Cabin Trilogy and the rest of our rooms when you’re next in town!

Packed with surprises and fun!! Highly, highly recommend. Tantalizing puzzles, immersive ambience, many "wow" moments, and a very good game master. The puzzles are of excellent variety and challenging (in a good way that makes you go "aha!") requiring a mix of thinking. It was a 70-min room (like their other rooms) but doable in 60. The gameplay is spiced with aspects of non-linearity, design unpredictability, and a very attentive game master who watches, hears and follows your progress with helpful nudges. A solid team of 4 would be great, but also doable with 2 experienced and adept players.
Very fun, unique, flows wells
Immersive and impressive!
Lindsey was great! Very attentive, following your progress. Helpful nudges and extra marks for spooky voice!

Any room at escape hour will not disappoint. This room takes at least one person who is able to crawl and climb and doesn’t mind small spaces. You have to be quick on your feet and have a keen mind to complete within the timeframe.
There were a series of interactive puzzles that allowed us to immerse ourselves in our environment.

We definitely had some climbing, crawling, and moving back and forth in this room. It made it really enjoyable.

There are a lot of puzzles and locks to solve to reach the end. We played with first time players both times we attempted the room and have failed to complete. We have completed more intense rooms, but this room has become our crux. It makes more fun and exciting when it’s challenging. We’ll be back to complete this room.

One of the more immersive rooms we have done. Very tough with only two people, but we managed to squeak by with some helpful hints. Unique and fun hint delivery system. Overall a really great room.

One of the best I’ve been to in Austin there’s so much to do in this one and the theatrics and design were on point. Very well done and worth a detour for
