Southport School for Wizards

We love Maine Escape Games! We’ve completed three rooms so far: Uncle Ned’s Cabin, Dr. Gem’s Time Trap, and Southport School for Wizards, and each one has been great. The rooms are fun, immersive, and well-designed, with puzzles that are challenging without being too obscure or frustrating. We’ve done escape rooms in many different places, and Maine Escape Games is one of our favorites. Our only complaint is that they need some cool memorabilia! They could make some extra money from escape room enthusiasts like us who love collecting T-shirts, stickers, mugs, or other souvenirs to remember each experience. We’d definitely buy them.

My husband and I did a weekend trip and did all six rooms! These are all amazing rooms that you must do if you get the chance. Bring a team of four. There is so much to see and do that even if you could do it with a smaller team you'll want to be able to have the opportunity to take it all in. The staff was super nice in that they let us complete all of the rooms even though our time had run out on 5 of the 6 rooms. They aren't very chatty but I chalk that up to the amount of reset they need to do after a team works their way through the game. The sets are next level and are some of the best I have come across. Every detail is thought out to such an amazing degree. Kudos to the set team who designed the sets. The puzzles are beyond excellent! The flow was exceptional in every room! I won't go into super detail because these all need to be experienced! If you have any questions, please reach out to me! Loved, loved, loved this entire experience!!

Great mechanic room! It’s often to see failures and it must be difficult for the owner to maintain every wire and circuit. But this room is great and very smooth. Love the magic part of it too!

Definitely intermediate and can be done with minimal hints and just a few people. Our group loved this room.

Puzzles were on the easier side, but the game play felt immersive and some had very unique designs.

We had a group of six all at varying experience levels, it was a really fun time!

This was a very fun, though on the easier side. This would be a great room for a group of kids or teens, or good for beginners

Really fun room. Great theming throughout and enough to keep us all busy. This room was a little on the easier side, but given the theming and difficulty level would be great for kids/preteens. We really enjoyed it!

Of the three I’ve done at this location is was my least favorite, but only because the others were so amazing! Can’t go wrong at Maine Escape Games.

My small but experienced group had an amazing time visiting Maine Escape Games! The rooms we played there looked great and were mostly high tech, using little to no padlocks. This Harry Potter-esque room was a lot of fun and definitely brought the magic. For two of us, there was a LOT to do, and the room has a great mix of puzzle types with varying complexity. A couple of the puzzles were a bit frustrating, requiring a small leap of logic, but this was not the case for most of the room and MEG offers unlimited hints if needed. For experienced enthusiasts I would recommend a team size of no more than 3 or 4, that way everyone is able to contribute. Again, our team of 2 was able to finish with only a little help but we were both on our toes most of the time. It is a decent sized space though, so a larger group of newbies would feel relatively comfortable as well.
