We did this escape room as our first date! Definitely recommended for that purpose. The room had a fair share of technical glitches, which really detract from the experience, but the ideas were quite novel. The props were reasonably impressive, though the decorations could have used some help.
Gameplay
There were some unique puzzle ideas in this room, but we ran into several disappointing technical bugs. Assuming your room functions properly, you can look forward to some satisfying puzzles.
Atmosphere
The props were well placed, but there were very few non-essential decorations in the room. There were some nice special effects, but not too many.
Customer service
The GM's were nice, especially when things weren't working correctly.

Egyptian Tomb: Trapped in an ancient Egyptian tomb our team of archaeologists to discover the mysteries of the tomb, locate a missing archaeologist, and find a way out. The Big Game: The opposing team was trying to sabotage us on the big game day. Locked in the coach's office, our group of football players had to find a way out before the championship game. Casino Heist: Our team of robbers had to break into the casino vault and get the goods before the police arrived to haul us away to jail. Pros: The experience at Escape Works is top notch from the moment you walk in. The waiting area is nice and clean and the game masters are professional and courteous. The set in each room is simple and decorated to fit the theme. Props are minimal but the few props fit with the overall storyline. The emphasis is less on searching and more on solving the puzzles themselves, which is what we enjoy the most. The puzzles were all logical and linear and worked best with small groups of 6 or less. Smaller group sizes were also best since the rooms themselves were very small. We successfully escaped all three rooms (in spite of ourselves at times). Everybody had a great time! Cons: These rooms definitely work best for smaller groups of people since moving around can be difficult with too many people. The puzzles ranged in complexity and there were a few moments when we were completely stumped and could have used hints a little earlier. The hint system worked but was a bit delayed at times. Some of the puzzles in the Big Game were less logical and therefore delayed our progress. We loved Casino Heist but our brains definitely hurt after trying to solve the mathematical based puzzles there.

Very cramped space with 5 - I'd recommend 4 or fewer.

Awful experience, unless you like having broken game pieces and being ignored by the Gamemasters then it’s great

Puzzles didn’t connect in any way, multiple red herrings, one puzzle that “everyone needs a hint on that one”, because it’s a bad “puzzle”.

I would not suggest this place to enthusiasts. It would probably be ok for people who don’t know better.
Gameplay
The room was just ok. You can’t ask for hints at this establishment. I have determined this is probably because they have one game master running 5 games at once. The room didn’t flow and was very frustrating to get started.

I don’t blame the game master for the place having one of them running five games.

This is a pretty standard casino room, but with fairly disjointed clues and puzzles. Definitely not my favorite room at this location.

The room was awful, the puzzles had no connection and gave extremely limited information on how to do them and where to go next, bad information with poor clues made us needing a full explanation of multiple puzzles at the end.

I don’t have anything to complain about, but this room didn’t really blow me away. If your at EscapeWorks already, go ahead and play it, but it’s not worth making a special trip.
