Rock 'n roll legends and Tacoma natives, Grit City, are set to start their North American tour tonight at the Tacoma Dome. The show is sold out and everything has to go off without a hitch. With almost an hour before hitting the stage, it comes to light that the band's guitarist lost his lucky guitar and they are refusing to play without it. As the old saying goes, the show must go on! Can you locate the missing guitar before showtime? Join us for the most rockin' escape room experience in Tacoma!

One of the best rooms in the Seattle area! The rock band/music theme was really well integrated into the puzzles, the visual design was clean and immersive, and the puzzles themselves were well structured with visual affordances clearly connecting which clues went with which locks. Overall a great experience, and i look forward to any new rooms Cityscape games creates!

Top notch from top to bottom! Very happy with our game experience from excellent pre-booking customer service down to post game. The game itself also stellar. Quite challenging yet all the information and links connecting puzzle elements were there. It was different having some elements used more than once but in different ways AND we were informed during briefing so it wasnβt misleading. Itβs always a tricky balance allowing the kids to have fun while maintaining some order and puzzle processing. Our host did an amazing job of the right clues at the right time to aid in the right balance. We were so close and on the final puzzle so he let us finish it out which took a couple extra minutes. The love this game was built with is palpable in the atmosphere:)

Easily in my top 3! Unique and clever puzzles, excellent signposting, and great customer service. Itβs definitely not an easy gameβ¦thereβs a LOT to doβ¦but it never becomes not fun to play. Highly recommend to anyone. π

Fun room that was clearly designed with love and attention to details. Some puzzles did not have enough of a connecting line between them to be able to know what the next step was, but a gentle hint from the GM was enough to keep moving forward.

Incredibly fun experience! Iβve only done a couple of escape rooms but this one was definitely my favorite. Highly recommend to everyone!

On our trip to Washington. We were so excited to try out escape rooms, and we ended up playing about 9 of them, going from Gig Harbor to Tacoma to Seattle. This one was very basic. Picture this: a tiny room with hardly any cool tech stuff, and absolutely no surprises. The puzzles were just okay, nothing really mind-blowing. But hey, the guy running the place, I think he might be the owner, was super nice and acted as our game master. We actually beat the room pretty quickly because it was so straightforward. It felt like we were in a dressing room for some C-list entertainer - not the thrilling experience we were hoping for, you know? And the worst part? They charged us $50 per person for this lackluster room. Honestly, we all felt it wasn't worth that much. We thought it should be more like $30 to be fair. But hey, I guess everyone has different tastes, right?

puzzlerfan, I'm so sorry and saddened to hear that you didn't have a good experience playing my game. I put my heart and soul into designing and building my game so it definitely cuts deep knowing that someone did not have a great experience playing. I am always striving to improve so, if you are open to it, shoot me an email ([email protected]) and I would love to hear more of your thoughts on how I could continue to improve my game for all future players :)

We had a wonderful time doing our first (of hopefully many) escape room tonight in Tacoma! Cityscape/Daniel really built an awesome game that we thoroughly enjoyed from start to finish. We felt really smart whenever we managed to solve a tough puzzle. Although we technically lost, they added an extra minute on the clock so we could finish solving the last puzzle which we truly appreciate! It wouldβve sucked to get so close and not see the ending.

One of the best rooms I have ever done. They have puzzles that I have never seen before so it was a breath of fresh air to experience that after so many rooms. Daniel is doing something great here. Canβt wait for more rooms!

Rockstar was a great little gem in Tacoma and definitely worth the trip out of Seattle proper. The game flow was incredibly smooth, and the puzzles were a perfect balance between tough and fun. The owner, Daniel, was also fantastic and great to chat with before and after the game. Definitely recommended!

Wasnβt for me; I didnβt enjoy the room. Some of the puzzles were just not fun and by the end, I was just ready to go. I feel like I needed to have some experience with music to really understand some of the puzzles. The room was well put together and was cleaned. The GM was nice and helpful.

Imani, I'm so heartbroken to hear that you did not have an enjoyable experience playing Rockstar. I tried my hardest to create a fun and challenging escape room experience that is fair for all players regardless of outside knowledge but it looks like I may have dropped the ball at some point if it left you feeling like you did not have the necessary tools to succeed. Please, feel free to shoot me an email because I would love to know more specifics on what you struggled with so that I could improve my game for future players! My email is [email protected] Quick note, I did notice in your review you mentioned being tone deaf might be a potential issue for people in this game. I don't know if you know this, but on the booking website, I have a note about potential accessibility concerns and a note to let us know if you have any accessibility issues. For the puzzle I am pretty sure you are referring to, there is a tone-deaf friendly version of the same puzzle available upon request. Just something to know for next time or for anyone else reading this reply that might need similar accommodations :)
