“This was one of our first excellent home-brewed rooms (before we had done mostly mass-produced chains). It opened up our eyes to the possibilities of good rooms. There are some good puzzles and some really great elements in this room. Worth doing!”

At the Dr. Gene Etics lab there is a process going on of crossing the human with a beast! But the assistant is against it! Can you save him and escape him in time?
“I LOVED this room! Such a great design with some really novel effects. Puzzles were difficult, but doable. Overall, a really challenging but exceptionally fun room. One of the best I’ve done in DFW. This location is really the grandfather of DFW escape experiences. But don’t let the location or look of the building fool you - they really do a good job with their three (soon to be four) rooms. Just can’t praise the design and overall set production. We’ll be back for the third room and, once complete, the fourth room.”

You’re trapped in a temple following an adventurer's trail—and finding the treasure is the only way out. Archibald Tucker was one of the greatest explorers of the 1930s. His tales of adventure were known the world over and his prized journal documented every adventure. In fact, he uncovered a treasure so rare, no man alive had seen it! But a sudden gust of wind slammed the temple door shut - sealing Tucker and his journal inside and both were never seen again. Now armed with the latest technology, your research points you to the exact whereabouts of the lost journal which holds the secrets to finding the treasure and you’ve brought all the materials essential for your adventure. However, once you’re inside, angered spirits awaken and deem you unworthy of the riches held within…Now, as a test, they grant you 60 minutes to prove your worth.
“This room is very well designed. The puzzles fit the theme and were very logical. A couple of the puzzles were a challenge for only two of us to solve and a larger group might have helped. Excellent flow to the room, a bit of a challenge, and highly recommended as our second favorite room at this location (behind Scooby-Doo, and ahead of Narco).”

Centuries ago, Mulberry Manor was built as a gift from Edward Mulberry to his wife and children. But in October of 1871, Edward and his children were killed in a cold-blooded massacre; their bodies torn to pieces and scattered throughout the manor. Any who dare to enter since suffered the same short lived fate. You are the only living descendant to the Mulberry family, recently granted the estate. You have read the stories; you have heard the rumors; yet you enter with the wish to amass your fortune. Standing in the very place each victim drew their final breaths, an ominous presence overwhelms you. Desperately you search for a way out but your fate has been sealed; you are trapped; and the horror stories have turned into a nightmarish reality. Will you escape or become the next victim in this spine chilling horror story?
“Pretty solid room for Escapology. One of the most immersive rooms they have produced, and a little different setup than most of their rooms where it is just two or three rooms in a row. Not very difficult, but fun. I would recommend giving it a try.”

Scooby, Shaggy, and the gang need your mystery-solving help…or else! The town of Crystal Cove and surrounding areas are being terrorized by monsters and ghosts, and now the local Baroness Maria Richman has gone missing and it is suspected that the ghost sightings have something to do with it! Tasked with solving the crime, you arrive at the same conclusion as Mystery Incorporated. But when you get to the Spooky Castle, Mystery Inc. gets locked out, at the same time you get locked in! You soon realize that they’re able to help by communicating clues via magic portraits inside the Castle. After discovering a secret dungeon and monster lab in the castle, you come to the conclusion that the person responsible almost certainly works in the castle - but who could it be as there are several suspects??
“We have played over 100 rooms and this is one of our all-time favorites. It is very innovative, very high-tech, and has a number of fun puzzles. It was rated as 7.5/10 but seemed a little easier, making it a great room for a larger group of beginners (although it is also very linear). Playing at Escapology was top-notch. It is no surprise that this room was a multi-year TERPECA (Top Escape Rooms Project Enthusiasts' Choice Award) nominee. We highly recommend this game as our favorite of the three we played at this location (Lost City / Narco).”

You and your friends just had a great night at the Sayler Twift concert. As soon as you step into the parking garage elevator to head back to your car, an earthquake hits, knocking out the power to the elevator and trapping you inside. You need to calm down and find your way out of this dangerous situation before the gas leak in the building causes a deadly explosion
“We had fun in this room. The GM was really nice and energetic. We did need a few nudges to figure out what to do next, but it all made sense in the end. I would like to do it again sometime now that we have done quite a few rooms.”

After years of nuclear apocalyptic fallout, you’re running out of supplies and must find a power source for your home base. You brave the wasteland and enter the city of New Oldsburg where a functional fusion core battery is rumored to be stored inside a silo. You must scavenge the alleyway to find a way into the silo, acquire the fusion core battery and get back to camp before the sun goes down and the city gets dangerous.
“What a great experience. From the beginning, the manager and GM Joshua was super nice. The room itself was really cool, and I could see a lot of references from Fallout the video game in here. The room was medium to hard, but probably more on the hard side for those who aren’t experienced escape room players. Doing other escape rooms at this Sherlock’s and the Fort Worth location helped with some of their tricks and techniques. We will definitely be back and may even do other rooms again because we enjoyed the experience so much.”

You dared to enter the dark and mysterious castle where Dracula lives, but little did you know that the doors would lock behind you and you’d be placed under his spell. In order to escape, you must find Dracula in his resting place and destroy him. You have 1 hour before he awakes at dusk, or you will most certainly become his next delicious victim.
“Our final room here and we loved it. We needed some nudges, and it is a difficult room, but we figured it out with just us 3. We did use our 3 clues that they allow. The room is decorated nicely and it was fun. I’m sad we are done with all of the rooms here, but maybe we will do some over again after time passes. 😉”

“I have what it takes to survive Red Light, Green Light.” - You, probably. Well track suit up – it’s time to see what you’re made of. Dive into an immersive experience that takes you inside Squid Game, where you’ll play iconic games like Round and Round, face off against the Front Man, and betray your friends in a desperate attempt to win it all.
“Rating: 4/5 - This was everything I hoped it would be, I had a great time as a huge Squid Game fan. The 5 games were fun and exciting, some had my heart pounding. Obviously they couldn't do exactly the same games on the show but they modified them so that they would be more fair for people of different physical abilities. The games are enjoyable even if you never saw the show but it's better if you did watch at least season 1. The last game was the weakest though and not very climactic. The sets looked good with many large, iconic props from the show, lighting/sound/tech, and costumed employees, though they didn't talk except for pre-recorded voice-over for the Front Man. One GM leads you through the experience, ours was pretty good. I would definitely do this again if I'm back in Dallas and had other people to go with. You can do this solo or with friends (all the games are individual) but you go through as a group of 24. No one drops out, the positions are score based.”

P.H.O.B.I.A. was a medical facility founded on the dream of curing its patients’ worst fears. Unfortunately, that dream became a nightmare. Deadwood PHOBIA is a new mind-twisting experience that allows you and your friends to explore your fears. Armed with a brand new arsenal of powerful weaponry, your squad will battle hordes of enemies, make life-or-death decisions, and stand up to your worst nightmares. Will your squad escape alive? Face your fears and find out.
Some of the best escape rooms in Dallas come from independent local operators. North of the city in Farmers Branch, Sherlock's Escape Rooms runs six private rooms, including Earthquake, where a quake traps your team in a parking garage elevator after a concert, Fallout, a hunt for a fusion core battery in a nuclear wasteland, and Dracula, where you find Dracula's resting place and destroy him before dusk. Downtown, Escapology in Victory Park runs rooms like Lost City and Haunted House in one building. Whether you want a light first game or a hard puzzle for an experienced team, Dallas has an attraction for it.
Remember those point-and-click adventure games where you’re locked in a room and have to solve puzzles to find the key and escape? Those online games were the original inspiration for the live escape rooms you’ll find all across the world today. An escape room is an immersive experience where you (and your team of 2 or more people) are locked in a room with a series of puzzles for 60 minutes. To escape and win the game, you have to look for clues, solve the puzzles, and find the key. While most escape rooms only give you 60 minutes to complete the challenge, others may have shorter or longer time limits. Many venues are private rooms where you and your team are the only players. However, some places may pair you with other groups who booked a slot at the same time. And don’t worry about getting stuck, asking for hints on a difficult puzzle is totally normal. While the original escape room (created by SCRAP in 2007) had a fairly simple aesthetic, today’s escape games often take you into a different world. Artistic set designs, secret doors, and unique interactive elements are all part of the fun. It’s like an adventure game that you can interact with in real life. But if you’re hoping to preview any rooms before you book a game somewhere, detailed images and videos can be hard to find. To keep the puzzles a secret and preserve the experience of seeing the room for the first time, most venues only offer a few photos or a short trailer about the room’s theme or narrative. The only way to know what it’s like is to go and try it for yourself!
