“We loved this room! It's a great room, and it's cool that they have a wheelchair lift for the stairs so they're accessible. Love the hidden parts of the room, and the puzzles. Everything in this room flowed well and made sense, making it an easier room and a good room for beginners. It's cool because the theming was very well done, so you really feel immersed in the room while you're in it.”

“Great room. The theming was done very well, an exciting take on the classic FBI/CIA themed rooms. Great use of technology and exciting puzzles. Would definitely recommend especially for those trying out escape rooms for the first time.”

“This game is incredibly unique. If you’ve got 2 groups of friends to play with, it gets very competitive and tons of fun to mess with the other team. The puzzles here and theme are really well done. This is the most fun experience I’ve played. It’s not really an escape room, it is more a competitive challenge against another team.”

“We got so lucky with the placement of strangers in your room and had 3 really awesome women to do the room with! But otherwise, the game was really fun, super interactive, great variety puzzles. I had a lot of fun here!”

“In the old days, games were based on putting players in some miserable situation that they wished to get out of. This game instead takes you on a proper adventure, at the end of which you wish you could stay longer. We were the 2 randoms in a group of 6, so we had to step back and share the fun a little. Since it's linear, it is possible to keep track of every step that occurs without missing anything. Good music, and subtle lighting direction. Helpful subtitles on the video.”

“What a fun room!!! Tons and tons of puzzles, and very youthful and fun. The puzzles themselves aren’t an overly tough, but there are a lot of them which means lots of action throughout the whole room. We played with 4 adults and one pre-teen and it was just right.”

“We loved this room! It's dark, but the flashlights from the jump help. The story is well designed, and it's a fun, easy one to breeze through. We didn't even realize we'd finished it at first because we breezed through so much because the story leads the way so well.”

“What a wonderful game. Yes, it's the most common escape room theme, but it's also from The Escape Game who knows what they are doing. You need some co-op play & this game (unlike most) is more Shawshank Redemption than generic escape room. A must do!”

“Best TEG game ever. Also this game in general is incredible. So much fun. Adventurous, funny, thrilling. Worth the trip out to Nashville just for this room. The build is insane and a step above normal TEG quality. Go play !”

“Overall rating - 9.4/10 Puzzles - 10 Gameplay - 10 Atmosphere - 9 Experience - 7 For a breakdown of my weighted rating system you can refer to my bio. I think this is a great room for two players, flows nicely, I think all the puzzles are very fair and make sense, we really enjoyed it. It had a nice flow with 2 people and the set design was really fun. I felt like all the puzzles had the perfect mount of thinking to "clicking" ratio. The puzzles were also very interactive, a lot of touching and turning stuff. Also I don't know if something changed with the room or they just forgot to turn the lights off but this was definitely not a dark room.”

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!
