“One of the best set designs I’ve experienced in an escape room so far! You can tell the room has seen some action, with a little wear from use, but honestly, it still looked beautifully designed and did an amazing job of keeping us immersed. Teamwork and communication are absolutely key in this room. I loved how fully we got to lean into the whole “kidnapped by a drug cartel” experience—it definitely had us feeling like we were in a little high-stakes situation. 🧨 The puzzles were a great mix of fun, creative, and challenging without feeling frustrating. Definitely a fun room and a great location! We had a blast and are already looking forward to breaking out of more rooms. 🔓”

“I love coming to this location to do escape rooms! This room was super on theme and lots of fun. We struggled a bit because we were overthinking some stuff, but the staff was so nice. They will nudge you along and encourage you without giving anything away. It really helped, but made us still feel accomplished. Really cool lock I’ve never seen before!! Loved it!!”

“This one got me, but luckily my husband was sharp. I had to get a lot of coaxing and I felt so silly because of one thing. I had an invasive internal thought to do something goofy and turns out I should’ve followed that instinct.”

El Paso has a small but strong escape room scene, with a few operators running several rooms each. Themes range from local legends and alien mysteries to lost temples and haunted houses, and some rooms lean toward a good scare. Some venues book your team into a private room, while others may pair you with another group, so check the details on each attraction page. Use the list above to compare themes, difficulty, runtime and ratings from other Morty users. Whether you want a light first game or a hard puzzle for an experienced team, El Paso 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, usually for 60 minutes. To escape and win, you look for clues, solve the puzzles and find the key. Some escape rooms give you more or less time. Many venues are private rooms where your team is the only group inside. Some places may pair you with other groups who booked the same time slot. And don't worry about getting stuck: asking for a hint on a difficult puzzle is totally normal. The original escape room (created by SCRAP in 2007) had a fairly simple look, but today's escape rooms often take you into a different world. Detailed sets, secret doors and interactive effects are all part of the fun. It's like an adventure game you can step into in real life. Detailed photos and videos of an escape room can be hard to find before you go. To keep the puzzles a secret, most operators only share a few photos or a short trailer about the theme or story. The only way to know what it's like is to go and try it for yourself!
