The study was my first room at the basement. It was amazing in every way. Perfect amount of scary and challenging. The actor made the room so immersive and was so kind after the game. I love this location and cannot wait to do more rooms here

Hypnotic Escape Rooms

I rate this room a 5/5 (ck out my bio for rating system). This room scored all possible points from me. The set/theme was off the charts! It was completely immersive with great attention to detail and a record number of subrooms. No locks to be found anywhere, yet a variety of different puzzles as well as many kinds we hadn't seen before and medium in difficulty for a group of 3 experienced players. It's very important to keep your eyes open in this room because you can easily miss things. I enjoyed it immensely. Lots of 'wowza' moments! I'm eager to try their other rooms at some point!

Really well done room, especially for simple tech (mainly combo locks and keys). Very thoughtful and intelligently put together. Can be a little hard for just two people if you get caught up once or twice. Would recommend 3+ people to manage all the puzzles happening (there are a lot!).

Sooooo much fun!!! I loved how the creators of the game put so much heart and soul in designing the room, including letting participants take photos / videos of the room. Even though it’s a kid friendly room, we had so much fun because of the tech, the mechanics and the storytelling immersion! Loved the whole experience and it was truly a memorable one for me. Kudos to the room, set and design makers!

an amazing experience! not too difficult in the puzzle flow but it makes up for it in droves with immersion, variation and cooperation. each puzzle was creatively executed and some aspects like a specific plant have been stuck in my head ever since we played. if you have a friend interested in escape rooms and you need a room to convince them to join us like a cult, this is the game for that.

Quest Room

This was a very nice room! It's a darker room where you're given light sources to use (love-hate relationship). The theming was REALLY NICE. Puzzles were challenging and different. The only downside was that there was at least one puzzle that was a bit finnicky/buggy. We got the idea of what we had to do but the puzzle wasn't registering our solution correctly. Other negative was that it was kind of hard to hear the GM on the staticky speakers. We often had to ask him to repeat what he said, burning through more of our time. One puzzle was particularly difficult, but we brute forced the solution once we had a couple parts solved. The ending shocked me because you had to literally break a golden rule of escape rooms to end it. Without the buggy puzzle and subpar speaker system, this room would be pretty top tier.

Project Minotaur
  • Escape room

I truly loved Project Minotaur because it’s very unique compared to other escape rooms. This escape room focuses heavily on survival and thrills, making it feel like you’re inside a horror movie. It’s highly immersive and interactive, so I’d recommend wearing comfortable clothes since you’ll definitely be active and break a sweat! We did the room with just two people and managed to escape. We found that having more than four people would make it feel cramped, so I’d recommend keeping to a maximum of four. A huge shout-out to Gabriel and Lo, our amazing game masters, for making the experience unforgettable! Overall, it’s an amazing and rare experience, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone seeking a genuinely thrilling adventure!

Jumanji was our first 60out escape room and it was great! We ended up finishing all the rooms at the Melrose location, and Jumanji was definitely the highlight there. It's really on theme, and knowing the general idea of the movie definitely makes it more enjoyable. Puzzles were fun and different.

Great room. Staff was friendly and they had parking on site. The room was imersive and I would say the puzzles were moderately difficult for experienced players. If you're newer it may be more difficult as there are not always clear instructions regarding how to solve puzzles

We made it out!! Freedom at last!!!! This was our favorite prison break room so far. Definitely better if you do it with 2-4 people at most. Super fun immersive experience. Has some fun surprises during the experience. Highly recommend for everyone to do. GM was great in giving us a couple of nudges along the way to make sure we made it out and got the full experience. Can’t wait to try the other Rooms here.

I can see why people love this room for a Gen 1 room. It's a cute room with cute/clever puzzles. Even though you see a lot of locks, the puzzles to solve them are satisfying and fun. Recommend for a small group, maybe even just 2-3 if you're decently experienced players.

Every room they produce is rich with color and sprinkled with their own magic. By now I’ve done all their rooms and I’m obsessed with their style! Every room we’ve done had a lot of “Ooos!” and “Ahhhs!” Mush Room packs in a lot of sugar in one space and having Tuesday as out host was the cherry on top!

What can I say besides that this room is just fun! The furniture and set pieces felt like we were stepping back in time. We needed one hint at the very beginning, but otherwise it flowed well. We struggled in most areas, but it didn’t feel unfair and we eventually got through them on our own. The story was entertaining and unique and if you have a chance to play this room, you absolutely should!

The atmosphere of this game was top notch! So immersive! It felt as if you were truly outside when you first enter the room. We took a little bit to get started, but once we did, the flow between puzzles was really smooth. We had no problems solving the room with three people and only struggled on the final puzzle. Probably our favorite set design of the three rooms at this location (though it’s stiff competition). All of the puzzles were unique and non-conventional. There was only one key used in the room, but its use fit the theme perfectly.

One of the most elaborately decorated set designs I’ve seen. Excellent game design allowing parallel activity but needing collaboration as well. Fantastic beginning throwing you into the action. GM is in the room with you, but honestly it worked much better than my only other experience with that model as she was in character. Ultimately a traditional room, but top-notch.

I loved the decoration in this room, especially the wallpaper. The room was lovely and filled with tons of puzzles, a mix of lock-based and tech-based challenges. It definitely requires at least four people (or three if you’re experienced), since many of the puzzles are layered within other puzzles, which takes extra time to solve. Our GM was great and helpful.

THIS ROOM!!!!! It’s been on my bucket list for YEARS and I finally get to check it off!! This room really had it all! So many fun puzzles, so much to do, and soooo many elements. The one thing I’ll say is that it’s clear there have been people who have messed around in the past because there were a loooooot of in-game precautions that kept being relayed by the GM over the speaker. It kinda distracted from the game because we would just be trying something out and then they’d come on the speaker and explain why we shouldn’t touch something, but even with that, it was still so great!

This room was just super fun! We did this as a team of two and were able to complete everything. The game guide was great at keeping us on task when we were struggling and enhanced the experience the whole way through (thanks Matt!!). The story telling was top notch. There’s two different sets of puzzles: ones that directly progressed the story forward and others that added flavor and gave resources for a later puzzle. The way they worked together was great. We didn’t complete all of them and I honestly think it was better that way as it added to the story at the end. All in all, a wonderfully fun room with great tech and setting that I’d recommend everyone play!

One of the funnest more enjoyable rooms I’ve done in a while. There is so much to do, 2 people wasn’t a great idea. Definitely recommend 3 as a minimum. Puzzles were very on theme for the room and made sense with everything. Easy enough to piece together and great use of space Our GM, Joe was also a fun dude. Very happy to have him brief us and chat after the game. Everything about play that room was great!

I rate this room a 4/5 (ck out my bio for rating system). The set and theme were fun and whimsical. I loved our friend in the room and his instructional guidance. My husband wasn't as big a fan of the amount of guidance he gave (he's one of those, the less hints the better, kinda players) but I thought it took some pressure off and allowed us to move easily thru the game. I loved the film snippets played when you finish a ghost - a great added touch! I'd give this category 1.5 pts. The puzzles were easy enough especially with the guidance our funny little friend provided. With a group of 3, we encountered the mandatory 13 'ghosts' and got 3 bonus ones as well. There were a variety of puzzle types and the experience was catered to our group size and ability. 1 point here. I enjoyed the room a little bit more than the average experience. I liked the variety and personalized experience so 1.5 pts for my enjoyment. Sadly, this was the last room for us to play at this business. I've given all 4 rooms here at least 4 points and 2 of them are on our top 3 escape rooms list (TI and FA). They are most definitely masters at creating unique and creative escape room experiences!

Solid room all around. Immersive, imaginative and a good amount of customizing and programing and love went into this room. The effort shows in every detail. Great flow and reveal moments throughout. We've done all 4 rooms here. Treasure Island is still our favorite but Flynn's arcade was a close second.

How Do Escape Rooms Work?

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!
