Operation Treehouse: Capture the Flag

Holy crap!! This room was awesome!! It was extremely nonlinear and we could’ve really gotten things done in any order but the order we chose felt correct? The gameplay flowed nicely in this order and without asking for too many hints we were able to escape! The puzzles themselves were very lighthearted, and intuitive enough to be like “oh! of course” Puzzles ranged from physical challenges to focused, layered puzzle masterpieces. For a single room game it felt really well spaced and realized so major props to the escape goats for designing it as well as escape ventures for adapting it!

What a cool concept for a room! Loved the hands on puzzles and cool theme. Room offers the opportunity for everyone in your group to be working on separate puzzles at once. Everything was in good condition with no sign of wear.

This was such a fun room to do. We did it on Escape Goat’s last day. The staff was very nice and though it is sad that Escape Goat closed down, I know Escape Ventures will take great care of their games, including this one. This is a non-linear game with some wonderful injections of humor. The theming is spot on. There were a lot of puzzles but with a solid team of 4+ you can get through it without a panic. This room was so much fun we’re coming back to do it again with some other family members.

My team had the pleasure of being the final team to do a room at Escape Goat. We had wanted to visit forever and when we heard they were closing, we knew it was go time! As for the room, it was fantastic! We had so much fun with this room. There was so much to do and everything flowed well, despite not being a linear room. The staff was so friendly and graciously took the time to talk to us about the business and story behind it.

A colorful, fun, inspired, yet deceptively challenging room. There is a genuine “wow” factor as soon as you step in, and it quickly becomes apparent there’s a LOT to do and you don’t have time to waste. While the theme may seem geared toward kids, this is definitely not a room for kids. Part of the wow factor is the buildout, which features probably one of the largest footprints for a “single room” we’ve ever experienced. You and your team will run into the space and will instantly want to start looking at everything like a kid in a candy store. It’s very inviting and definitely invigorates some childlike wonder. You can’t help but smile when you walk through the door. As soon as you begin though, it becomes apparent very quickly that this is not a room for beginners, and it is definitely not something kids will be able to beat without immense guidance and assistance. This room has A LOT of puzzles to tackle, and they’re all quite challenging. Given the size and sheer amount of things to do, it’s great for groups, but as a team of three we didn’t find it too overwhelming. However, I’d recommend you have a fair bit of experience with escape rooms before tackling this if you plan on playing with a smaller team. There were a lot of unique puzzles we hadn’t seen before, and save for one or two frustrating ones who’s tech needed a bit of maintenance, it all flowed pretty well once you got the hang of the room’s flow. Overall, it’s wholesome, clever, light hearted, very original and manages to keep a smile on your face the whole time. It’s an inspired labor of love with a lot of polish and a surprising amount of depth to its gameplay. Unfortunately, we know Escape Goat closes later this month, as will this room along with their others. So if you’re interested and in the area, go sooner than later. It’s worth checking out.

I enjoyed the cute theme, uplifting decor, & fun puzzles. As always, the staff was helpful & incredibly sweet! Since they intend on closing soon, I recommend visiting this lovely establishment asap.

Great room with a lot of challenges kid loved it sad it’s closing soon!

This room has a delightful theme: you are trying to win a game of “capture the flag” by infiltrating the rival team’s treehouse. This is a highly nonlinear room with a lot of puzzles. We beat it with two players but I do think that the venue’s recommendation of 4 is very reasonable. There is nothing that is physically impossible to do with fewer than 4 (one person could probably solve everything if they are a puzzle savant). Many of the puzzles are good to solve with two people working together, and you will definitely need to communicate well, because part of the fun is figuring out what props and puzzles go together. The space is one large open room and pretty much everything in it matters at some point. We had a great time. Recommended.

Absolutely love this room. As someone who doesn’t like scary I love the creativity of a young themed room that still had difficult and fun puzzles. Another great one for the goat.

AHHHHH this one was so cool and whimsical! our mouthes were on the floor with how awesome it was all the way thru. DOOOO ITTTT
