The 11 best escape rooms in Milwaukee (2026)

“Heist Havoc was an amazing room! For being a game guide at 60 to Escape, I really enjoyed this experience. The puzzles were unique, the story was on point, and the effects were immersive. Our game guide, Nick, was very engaged and provided nudges when needed. Will be coming back to this location once other games open up!”

“Really great room although quite challenging particularly for 2. A few items we were unlikely to get without a hint and it’s fairly linear so you could get stuck for a while and you need every minute on this one. So don’t be bashful on hints.”

“I love this game, it’s engaging, atmospheric, and surprising. The set design is realistic, and the layout sprawling. Lighting is on point too. The pirate theme is a well-worn trope in the escape room world, but these guys do it well. We had a group of 4 enthusiasts, and I would probably recommend 3 to 4. The puzzles are a great mix of logic problems, dexterity challenges, and searching for items. The final puzzle is pretty tough if you’re not familiar with the format, so make sure to bring a smart person along. 👩‍🎓 As is the case with most of 60 to Escape’s games, there’s a dash of humor too. I love the denizens of the world they created, including the talking parrot.”

“Rating: 4/5 - Unique theme with a cool gimmick Pros: ➕Set looked good and was fairly immersive. Lots of custom builds and some special effects. ➕Puzzles were mostly likeable and fit the theme, seemed like there was a bit more variety than a lot of their other rooms. ➕Some tactile, physical inputs (instead of buttons) ➕Good use of audio ➕Almost all tech (buttons, screens, sensors, maglocks), no combo locks and just a couple of key locks but they were used where they made sense. ➕The room's gimmick was cool and well implemented ➕Multiple rooms to explore ➕GM was friendly and helpful when needed Could be better: ➖Some areas of the rooms felt a bit sparse, could've used a bit more detail to add to the immersion. ➖No animatronics or fun characters like many of 60 to Escapes other rooms, they have spoiled me 😅 I'd recommend 2-3 enthusiasts, we finished as a team of 2 with no hints. My ranking of 60 to Escape rooms (all locations) starting with my favorite. 1. Lockbuster Video ❤️ 2. Cheesie's Pizza Party ❤️ 3. Invasion ❤️ 4. Pirates Curse ❤️ 5. Mystery Manor ❤️ 6. Hidden Temple ❤️ 7. Duke's Farm ❤️ 8. Casino Heist ❤️ 9. Merlin's Legacy ❤️ 10. Blast From The Past 👍 11. Starship: Final Frontier 👍 12. Jurassic Outpost 👍 13. Arctic Expedition 👍 14. Museum Heist 👍 15. The Storm 👍 16. Magic Heist 👍 17. Containment 👍”

“Rating: 4/5 - Tech filled room with an exciting ending Pros: ➕Set looked great and everything you see and touch fits the theme ➕Exciting ending with an entertaining encounter ➕Good use of lighting effects, audio/music, and even scents. ➕All tech based puzzles (sensors, buttons, maglocks), no combo locks with some tactile inputs. Only 1 padlock but it fit the time period. ➕Almost all tech (buttons, maglocks), only 1 combo lock ➕Multiple rooms to explore ➕GM was friendly and helpful when needed Could be better: ➖Too dark, it was hard to find things, read, and distinguish colors. ➖One item was hidden in an annoying location. ➖Puzzle types were a bit repetitive (though still likeable), 60 to Escape tends to do a lot of puzzles involving pushing/pulling things in a specific order. I'd recommend 2-3 enthusiasts, we finished as a team of 2 with around 5-10 min left. My ranking of 60 to Escape rooms (all locations) starting with my favorite. 1. Lockbuster Video ❤️ 2. Cheesie's Pizza Party ❤️ 3. Invasion ❤️ 4. Pirates Curse ❤️ 5. Mystery Manor ❤️ 6. Hidden Temple ❤️ 7. Duke's Farm ❤️ 8. Casino Heist ❤️ 9. Merlin's Legacy ❤️ 10. Blast From The Past 👍 11.

“2nd timing visiting 60 to Escape’s Milwaukee location and The Storm was another fantastic experience. We have done all 6 Woodfield rooms and 5 of the 7 Gurnee rooms, so we knew this would be another great room. The Storm had an impressive set design and multiple rooms to explore. There was lots of fun tech used in the rooms and the “storm conditions” made you feel like you were on a farm, and in a farmhouse, during a tornado. There were fun tie-ins with some movies, and there was one puzzle that you had to be very observant at the correct moment. The room did not have as many puzzles as some of 60’s other rooms, and we could not get into a great flow like we usually do. We went down the wrong path with one puzzle and it used up a lot of time. We had an “off” night with our solving skills, but, luckily, this was an easier room and our GM (Molly) provided some timely hints to ensure we would not get swept away in The Storm. As usual, customer service was fantastic and everyone we interacted with upon our arrival was really fun to talk with. The Storm was another great room from 60 to Escape.”

“What a fun, swift moving game with lots of room to maneuver, and really great thematic puzzles. Visually, I am thankful that it is more of a tidy basement rather than making it gross or dark. It made it more enjoyable.”

“Excellent and hilarious concept! This is basically 3 escape rooms in one with a built-in fake lobby. Of course, 3 of the most common escape themes are represented here. There are a lot of puzzles overall, and bigger groups will have an easier time because it’s totally nonlinear. So nonlinear to the point where our small 2 person group had to divide and conquer, and sometimes move between rooms to more efficiently use our time if we got stuck. It’s very meta, and as enthusiasts, we get the joke!”

“Very fun and immersive! No traditional locks used and all the mechanisms were well integrated as to not stand out but noticeable enough to not be frustrating. We had a mixed group of 6 in terms of experience and we all felt satisfied with the variety and quantity of puzzles. We had plenty of time left so maybe a group of 4 would be a better size, but overall no one left disappointed. Alexa was a very nice and personable gm and did a good job briefing us and nudging when we were spinning our wheels a bit.”

“What an absolute gem of a game, in a lovely location, easily accessible to folks from Chicago or Milwaukee. A very clever and sweet story, chock full of whimsy and joy. Also, they allow players to immerse themselves into the roles, which adds to the fun. Multiple surprises that will delight players, and some very unique puzzles that utilize cooperation . Clue delivery is unique and adds to the charm of the whole game. This room is a testament to the idea that a game doesn't have to be scary or spooky or full of animatronics or a high tech. A unique story, clever puzzles and bursts of delight can make a game incredibly satisfying. As full disclosure, I arrived to play this game after failing in a game at a different (unrelated) venue. I was feeling frustrated and defeated. Purrrfect President was the purrrfect game that I could have played to relieve me of all those negative feelings and finish my escape room weekend on a positive note.”
