You have 60 minutes to escape from prison, or it’s your life. No pressure. You and your group of friends have been sentenced to life without possibility of parole. You are rotting in a maximum security prison. The catch? You didn't do it. While waiting for someone to help you, you plead for your life in court, but your appeals have been denied again and again. Your entire group was set up, and the only proof that will set you free, is outside of the walls of the prison. Since the criminal justice system is broken, the only thing you can do now is rely on those inside to help you escape. It seems everyone in the prison - the cook, the janitor, all of the trustees - all believe you, and will work together to make sure you don't rot in prison for the crime you didn't commit. But will their help be enough?

I liked this room quite a bit although it polarized our group (not everyone liked it). It doesn’t do anything especially novel in the “break out of prison” genre of escape room, but the set is nice and there are some good puzzles. I thought the split start was especially well executed except that it is needlessly difficult to hear each other through the method you have to use to communicate. But overall, I give it a thumbs up.
One puzzle that relies on dates really needs its in-game documentation updated because otherwise it makes no sense. But I liked the “hint system” a lot.
Solid set design. One environmental puzzle struck me as particularly cleverly integrated with the set.
Great GM. The game master both roleplays the hint system and has the opportunity to customize a moment of the experience for your team, which our GM did in a way that showed impressive attention to detail.

2-4 would be fine. It is a split start so you need at least 2. More than 4 would be very crowded.

A lot of stairs to go up, a slide to go down, and a crawl.
Not accessible (see previous item).

Wrongfully Convicted is a fun take on your classic Prison Break theme. Your team will be split in two and you have to work together to solve the puzzles in the room. I've done prison break escape rooms before but I thought that the puzzles in this particular room were so fun and unique! With Escape Revolution, I love how they push the boundaries of what you think you can do in escape room. Our game master had a little sass and we enjoyed every bit of it. I think that 4-5 people are good with the number of puzzles they had. More people can feel like too many cooks in the kitchen. The price point does feel slightly too high for me, and I've already done all their rooms here. Escobar is still my favorite!

We made it out!! Freedom at last!!!! This was our favorite prison break room so far. Definitely better if you do it with 2-4 people at most. Super fun immersive experience. Has some fun surprises during the experience. Highly recommend for everyone to do. GM was great in giving us a couple of nudges along the way to make sure we made it out and got the full experience. Can’t wait to try the other Rooms here.

Got to do a quick pit stop here between Indian wedding activities haha Room was very tactile and made me say “am I allowed to do this?” a lot. Very out of the box thinking and really cool puzzles you won’t see anywhere else.

What I appreciated most about this room compared to similar rooms was how it featured practical hands-on puzzles that utilized the environment rather than making you simply search for codes. It leads to an immersive breakout experience that others wish it could replicate! Even though it follows similar trends like a split start and an office room, the directions the room takes aside from those aspects are novel. The room trusts you with what you are given and makes you figure out the layout of the facility to find your way out. The puzzles are hard too! The biggest issue was how loud certain things were during the split start that made our already limited communication between the separated team frustrating. It’s a hard room, so be proud if you make a great escape! The ending was a fantastic finale after all we had done in the room to get there!

Having done over 100 rooms, this one impressed us once we began. However, our game master was a little condescending from the very beginning and pretty rude. He also started our time during the briefing while he was explaining everything and when we asked why it was apparently “normal” and how they always run their rooms. This was a pretty horrible approach because what if parties had questions or newbies needed further explanation? It took him almost 10 minutes to explain everything so we ended up doing a 50 minute game. You should advertise that your games aren’t actually 1 hour. Just beware if you come to this location and hopefully “Rudy” “Rory” will be in a better mood tomorrow.

I liked the room itself, it was less escape room more real we life situation, which confused me for a bit. Anyways, my problem is with how we were treated. Make sure you actually get there early. I think it’s ridiculous that our appointment was at 1 and yet our time started 15 min earlier. Generally, places tell you to get there early but they don’t actually start the time until your apt time, well, not this place. We were so rushed that we had to keep asking for clues because when we got in there they had already taken 15 minutes away, which really upsets me and ruined my experience. Especially for the outrageous price, the least they could do is give me my full time!
Hard to figure out the flow when you’re being rushed and down 15 min before you even get started!

A very in-theme room, but some of the puzzles were a little annoying (very annoying).

“This is one of the better prison escape rooms I’ve seen. It’s a worthy game…“
