Playground

This isn't a difficult escape room, but there are a lot of puzzles and it is overall just very fun. We did this with 3 experienced players and thought it was perfect.

My wife and I did an esapceroom weekend in Cincinnati and after doing this room, we didn't bother looking for a second location. We just knocked out every room at the location we could. We were told the classroom couldn't be done by two, so we booked a room with a family of four who was coming m in later that day. I am super glad we did as this room was tough! There were a lot of puzzles with several different chains. While the grade we were visiting was at the kindergarten level the puzzles were college level! Grab some of your friends, play follow the leader, amd get to this room. Pay careful attention to what you find in the room. You might not even know what you see, smell, or hear might be a puzzle! Enjoy, it's amazing!

So much fun! Probably the most unique escape room we have played. I LOVED that it wasn’t dark and so much tech!! Our family (mom, 50, dad, 49, kids 12,11, 7) enjoyed it immensely!

Overall rating - 9.1/10 Puzzles - 8 Gameplay - 10 Atmosphere - 10 Experience - 7 For a breakdown of my weighted rating system you can refer to my bio. Super fun room! We almost wrote it off because of the theme but the reviews were so positive we gave it a shot. You hear playground and you think that it's probably more family/kid themed but there's definitely some challenging puzzles. The reason I rate it a 4/5 instead of a 5/5 is there were two puzzles I didn't find very enjoyable. One being the classic, "we took something and chopped it up into a bunch of pieces and now you have to put it back together". That's a D tier puzzle for me and always feels like a boring time killer. But the puzzles are all very interactive and this would be very fun with a 4 people. You can book this room with a large group but we did it with 2 and it was doable. Close but doable! Definitely would be fun with a bigger group though.

This room was great! There were only a few locks but it made sense for them to be there. They did stick us in with another family which we weren't a fan of, but it still went well.

Rating: 4.5/5 I didn't think going back to school would be so much fun! I loved the variety of puzzles and everything fit the theme, no random padlocks here. I've updated this review in 2024 after playing almost all of TEG's rooms at several locations, here is my personal ranking from best to least favorite: 1. Cosmic Crisis 2. Ruins: Forbidden Treasure 3. Playground 4. Timeliner: Train Through Time 5. Prison Break 6. The Depths 7. Special Ops: Mysterious Market 8. Gold Rush 9. The Heist 10. Mission Mars

AMAZING!! Everything I hoped and expected it to be. Incredible atmosphere, engaging puzzles, tons of WOW moments, and an immersive progress tracker. So much to LOVE! This room is a MUST DO. Staff is friendly

Such a FUN room! It has lots of puzzles and the atmosphere is spot on. Some unexpected, fun things happened making the game even more fun! One of my absolute favorite rooms. It has some unique puzzles I’ve never seen every after playing over 50 rooms! Definitely check this game out!

Super cool props and scenery. We blew through this room like an umbrella in a stiff wind. It left us wanting more.
