183 escape rooms

First escape room in Kenya. Pretty barebones. The staff was incredibly friendly and while the room was not our favorite, for escape room enthusiasts, the people would be a reason to visit. They approached us after the game looking for suggestions and clearly had passion for improving their rooms. All of the rooms showed passion and promise

Gameplay

Bad signaling at parts, faded maps and props etc led to difficulties.

Atmosphere
Customer service

The people were wonderful, and much of this review will seem very negative. they were very receptive to our suggestions and actually were looking for feedback to improve their rooms after the games. For all the parts we didn't like the people would be a reason we would still recommend Escape Room Kenya reservedly.
