“Our team of two made it out with only 7 minutes to spare, which is rare for us! The set was really impressive, and this room has a lot of great ambiance. We loved how they weaved the story around the puzzles! There were quite a few scavenging puzzles and it was hard to see at many points, which made it frustrating. Lots of solid puzzle variety, but a surprising amount of combination locks for how high tech it felt at other points. Overall, really fun room!”

“It was a very good room. The puzzles and set were great and exceed my expectations of escape room. The only two problems I have are the use of darkness to create difficulty. I do not find that fun personally. And the room was very linear so my group couldn't be working on several things at once. Still a great room and highly recommend!”

“Loved the incredible immersion with the set design, theme, music, and props. The puzzles fit so well for 80s nostalgia. Satisfying pop culture references and puzzles that clicked.

“An incredibly tough and interesting room. Escape Game uses tech so well that it truly enhanced the experience. Only thing I'd really change is have a flashlight available in the room. We were instructed by the GM to use our phone flashlights, which detracted from the experience slightly.”
