The big top circus is on a halt, as the magician’s wand had gone missing. The show cannot happen without this and the clown is on the way to find it, help them out!

Great hint system. I like when it’s not a video screen or walkie-talkie and it matches the theme of the room. This room is fairly linear, well themed, and had decent puzzles. No real complaints (well….maybe the one song on repeat). It is a solid room.

Cool Carnival theme, and a creative hint system! Honestly can't ding it too much, solid game!

Great room. Flowed very well. The set was highly immersive and the game master was fantastic. Unexpected game flow entering the third room. Really fun. Highly recommended.

This room is an absolute must do if you're in the Phoenix area! I love this room so much!! Big Top has a variety of creative and fun puzzles that require some thinking and some physical ability. It was definitely one of the older rooms and more of a later Gen 1 or early Gen 2 but it was still an amazing room! This one was probably around my 10ish mark for rooms and it was probably the first or second really good room that really awed me. Loved the room and would definitely recommend!

Great lighthearted room, mid tier room. Not the best but not the worst. Had some fun game reminiscent of a circus that made it enjoyable.

Overall super impressed by the design of the room. If you’re used to super linear (lock and key, combination, pattern) puzzles then this is definitely a new experience. There were puzzles me and my team needed nudging on simply because no one would’ve thought to solve them that way. My only negative on this room would be the usage of smell and sound to create the atmosphere. After a while, both components became more of a headache and less of a creative liberty.

A linear circus that can only be dampened by the personalities of your group. Play along with the theme and you’ll have a fun time with the games and festivities. We had a great time and a nice game master to cheer us on. An easier game but seemed to have a cool hint system if you needed it.

This game is a lot of fun, though the first room starts with some more drab or standard escape room puzzles. The unique theme and the fun in-world hint system are delights. Once you get to the midway games, the room really takes off. Solves generally become less traditional and more creative, which bucks the trend of diminishing returns with most escape experiences with multiple sections. There is one surprising section of the room, and there are some highly memorable props. Well worth doing this one!

Very good for kids if they want to start doing escape rooms.

This room will always hold a special place in my heart as it was my third room overall and the first one that blew my mind. The theme lends itself to a ton of physical puzzles and delightful presentation. The owners and GMs are always so fun. Side Note: We eventually took my brother and our partners to try the room and the GM let us (those that had done it already) join them in the booth to watch them play. Super cool behind the scenes experience.
“Definitely worth [it] checking out... the greatest show on earth!“
“A colorful circus game with some cute puzzles made this escape room a good choice ...“
