We’ve started traveling to do escape rooms and this one is easily one of our top experiences! The puzzles were challenging, unique, and historically accurate. The atmosphere was highly immersive and well done. The staff was super friendly, as well. Overall it was a great experience and we are excited to come back for future rooms!

I wouldn’t say it was scary, but it definitely had some high intensity. It was well done and made me feel like we’d be entombed if we didn’t escape!

Wow, this company does SO MUCH RIGHT! From the immersive sets to tactile puzzles to the lock-free tech to the reusable props, Return of the Pharaohs refines and elevates escape room design. Music is dynamic and thematically appropriate, especially during the tense final puzzle. All the props have weight and feel “real.” This room is one of the top 2 Egyptian experiences I’ve done in a crowded theme space. Only the TV screen timer/hint system breaks the immersion of this beautiful, immersive game. This is a must-play in Phoenix!
The whole place was adorned with hieroglyphics, which was appropriate. However, an early translation that was required to progress made every subsequent set of hieroglyphics feel like another piece of a puzzle. Feel free to ignore them after the first room. Yes, they do say things, but they’re not critical to the gameplay.

Very fun experience, the best “mummy tomb” game I’ve played yet! Immersive setting, just make sure you have closed toe shoes so you don’t get sand on your feet!
Semi “non-linear” gameplay let our group work on multiple things at once, was fun!
Stellar atmosphere, done many “mummy tomb” games before and this one was fantastic!
Very welcoming and positive energy

The incorporation of tech made it different/better
We’ll integrated between plot and puzzles

Stunning setup. Extremely immersive!! Not necessarily scary, but quite loud (which scared me😅). Puzzles were very unique though the theme is quite familiar. Really enjoyed it!

Great escape room! Our game master was a lot of fun. This room was a lot of fun and had a lot of interactive clues, alot of visual clues. Really enjoyed the layout of this room and all the hidden gems in this room. I can’t wait for this location to open more escapes!

Paragon's first room was an absolute win. Still one of the best rooms I have ever done, and definitely the best Egyptian-themed room I have played. The family the runs the place is so friendly and passionate about their work! We stayed up well passed midnight walking through the room and talking about the inner workings and industry. One of the rare rooms I would pay to play again because I just had such a fun time. It's a little bit of a drive outside of Phoenix but it's absolutely worth it.
Everything flowed beautifully.
Every single surface was relevant and lovingly crafted.
They're the best kind of enthusiast owner.

The hype is real on this one. Best Egyptian game out there thus far. Especially great if you don’t like locks. Story, music, sounds, lighting puzzles, non linear, it has it all. Play this game with no hesitations. Also play what ever these guys build. Seems like they have a great vision!
