For a one room escape room, this was a good room. Some props are starting to show wear and tear. The puzzles were fun, but not complicated for experienced players. I'd give another room a try if in the area.

Wow This is how you do a 1 room experience Just blow away with the mix of technology, game flow and immersion. Great room for a group or a couple for a date night This location has one of the nicest lobbies and a full bar so make a date night out here - play a few rooms and grab a cocktail between games Lovely staff and the owners are wonderful people; had a chance to meet and talk after the game (thanks for your time Chris) We will definitely be back Tidbits: Easy parking Delightful staff Very comfy lobby with a bar Plenty to do in the area

This was a very fun diversion on a week night with friends and family. This room was easy enough that our young nieces could participate in solving the puzzles. It was fairly non-linear as well, so we had multiple teams working on puzzles at the same time.
Parts of this game were really creative. They delighted my young nieces who donβt have much experience with escape rooms and really sold the Magic theme of the room.
The GM was very sweet to the younger members of our party.

Weβre so happy you and your friends & family had a fun weeknight diversion in our Illusion Room! Itβs great to hear it was the perfect difficulty for your young nieces to join in and that the non-linear design let everyone work on puzzles together. We love hearing that! Canβt wait to welcome you all back to Timed Out Escape Charlotte NC for your next escape! Thank you so much for your review! πͺπ β Timed Out Escape Charlotte NC

This was our first experience with Timed Out & what an amazing time. I know the White Rabbit Society game at Exit Games gets a lot of attention (and deservedly so), but I would argue this game may be on equal ground. The set design (a Magician's studio) is spectacular & the magic themed puzzles are spot-on. This isn't an easy room, so bring your thinking caps! The puzzles overall are intuitive with a very nice flow to it all. Several of their other rooms are just as great, although THIS is the one that you come to do. Put this room on your wishlist. It's one of the BEST in the Charlotte area.
Amazing!!

Illusion has a great atmosphere with challenging, nonlinear puzzles. Timed Out has a great service team that greeted us and chatted before our game. Our game master, Max, did a great job and guided us when we needed help.

We were very disappointed by this room. The intro video was hard to hear and the game master had to tell us several things we should not touch. Things seemed fairly disconnected from each other, something was hard to read, some props were worn, and the "special effects" did not do anything besides look cool (the first time). Lastly, our game master provided overt clues without us asking for them.
The GM was very nice but kind of ruined the experience by giving clues without us asking for them.
No
I am so sorry to hear you did not enjoy your experience at Timed Out and our game master over clued you during your experience. We would love to discuss your experience. Please call @980.209.9776 and ask to speak to Chris or Tina.

Iβve always had a soft spot for stage magic so I really enjoyed the theming here. A lot of inventive elements, and very tactile. They really got a lot of puzzles into a single room, some of which were quite tough, but I appreciated that the GM gave us nudges in the right direction for hints rather than just telling us what to do. One critique is that there were remnants of a discontinued puzzle still in the room, which proved a bit distracting at times. Overall had a good time!

This was such a fun room. Even though most of their puzzles have just locks, they were still unique and very fun. Would highly recommend this one
