The sets, environment, and aura are unbelievable. So much detail in places that you might be for two total minutes. This didn’t really feel like an escape room. It was an adventure. I spent the first few minutes in every room just looking around in awe. Highly recommend. Rebecca was fantastic. You’d have thought this was her first time running the game with joe much energy and enthusiasm she put in. 10/10 recommend

This isn’t just an escape room, it’s an adventure through multiple large temples! It’s basically The Legend of Zelda’s puzzle dungeons come to life! Everything works together in effective ways, from the fun live actor moments to the cinematic sequences, and a dazzling display of moving lights and music. There’s a bunch of verticality and puzzles that require looking high and low through the expansive spaces. And the fun comes in never quite knowing where you’ll end up next. There’s a beautiful finale that made the long trek worth it! Run, do not walk, RUN, toward the light!

We traveled to Charlotte to do this room for our anniversary and couldn’t have chosen a better way to celebrate. World class room with a killer staff. A new favorite. Thank you for the experience.

9.4/10 First things first, if you haven’t had the chance to play Quest for the Temple of Light, find time to go play it. This room has the greatest start to a game we have ever experienced and don’t get us started with the set. We walked in to one of the rooms asking, “Is this the Disney World of escape rooms?” For the set design and immersion alone, Quest for the Temple of Light makes our top 5 rooms ever played as of writing this in February 2026. With an absolutely amazing set, we wished the puzzle design was just as grand but we felt like that’s where this room fell a bit short. The flow from room to room didn’t really make sense, especially to the overarching story, which left us a bit confused as well. The name of the room is the Quest for the Temple of Light, but we didn’t even capture this light in a temple. Speaking with each other afterwards, we agreed that as their first room, Keepers of Balance were showing everyone what they are capable of with their sets by adding all these different types of rooms, we just wish it was advertised as that because it would have made more sense to the story. Overall, these are just little knit picks because this room was amazing. By far the greatest and most beautifully designed room we ever played. From the moment we stepped in the door we were instantly captivated and that’s what we all hope for when playing an escape room. We will be back, no doubt about it, to play Defenders of the Sunken Realm and their newest game coming out soon.

Wow. We had wanted to come out here since KOB opened, and this room did not disappoint. Not knowing exactly what to expect, we were whisked away into an adventure that was unique, hectic, satisfying, and just enjoyable. It's hard to describe what this room excels at individually, because it's the combo of everything being so darn good that makes the room so satisfying to make through. While the puzzles aren't the most difficult we've done in a room, they flow, are themed, and are satisfying to figure out. The live actors only add to the experience, making you feel immersed in the story instead of being thrust into a room. I appreciate the dynamism of where this can take the stories they tell, as well as opening the game up to more people through gentle-assists that feel much more reasonable than waving at a camera that happens to be in an ancient tomb. I had really high expectations following along on Instagram, and this room truly blew us away. Huge shoutout to Josh for what he's created here, and the rest of the KOB team.

The flow was truly perfect and one of the highest quality parts about this room. Transition sections coupled with the acting and environmental design, multiple levels, etc. make this one of the coolest rooms we've done.

Atmosphere

Looking up in some of the rooms/transient areas really makes you appreciate how much work went into this place. Genuinely jaw-dropping, and that's not something I've ever experienced in an escape room.

Customer service

Sometimes you worry if an escape room with a live actor is going to be too cheesy or if they'll overstay their welcome, or even if they will commit to the bit enough. No need to worry at KOB, our co-adventurer Brandon were phenomenal from start to finish.

Storytelling is paramount here, and it makes a big difference. Hard to overstate this.

Not terribly difficult, but more importantly not frustrating or non-flowing. Things make sense, there isn't an overwhelming amount of information, puzzles, or artificial difficulty.

Pros: Absolutely incredible set design, very enjoyable puzzles, great immersion. Cons: incense smell was almost stifling for those of us with sensitive noses, and the rooms grew progressively warmer to the point of discomfort. Thankfully, these are easy to fix and the owner replied that they have done so!

Hey David! Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We really appreciate you sharing your experience with us! I’m sorry for the discomfort your group felt related to the heating system. Since this is our first winter open, we’re still fine-tuning things to make the space as comfortable as possible for everyone, and your feedback is incredibly helpful as we dial that in. I’ve also gone ahead and toned down that specific scent so it should be much more subtle moving forward. Thank you again for the thoughtful feedback. We’d love the chance to welcome you back for another adventure soon!

One of, if not the best escape rooms I have ever done. You can tell how much time, love, and creativity went into this room. Great GM that not only provided help when needed but also joined the story in a fun way. HIGHLY recommend if you are in the Charlotte area.

One of our top favorite escape rooms. The set designs are amazing, big wow factor. The puzzles are fun, not too difficult. The live actor Connor was really great. We had an absolute blast and can't wait to experience their other rooms. Highly recommend to anyone.
