A fantastic evening team building with my community! I was finally able to compete in the battle…read morerooms! Each classic game was great to play and made me feel like I was on the real show! The pressure kicks in so that adds to the fun. I went with my fellow Yelp elite members so we had a large group so we played two rounds and ensured everyone got a a turn in 2 hours. The time really flies so enjoy every minute! A tip would be to come up with your best family friendly nickname so the MCs can call you to the stage! The two MCs were so welcoming and supportive of all of our members. They even made a few modifications for us who needed to be seated versus standing. That is a huge plus for mobility accessibility. The game room is not too noisy and all the words or numbers were large on the screen too for those with auditory concerns. The venue was very accessible and the restroom was gender neutral but I did not see a changing table to maybe leave the little littles at home. There is a room to set up banquet tables if you host a party to eat. They also sell juice, tea, lemonade, beer, seltzer, soda, and wines!

We played several different games, and every one of them was a blast. The space itself was really well done--it truly felt like a real game show with the lights, sound effects, and overall atmosphere. It added so much to the experience. I highly recommend this for anyone looking for something fun and different to do with a group. We'd absolutely come back!

Some of the clues are puzzling but my colleagues and I put on our thinking caps and was able to escape in 59 minutes. We had 40 seconds left before the timer ended. We were successful and the staff that night was friendly, professional, and helpful with us during check in, during, and after completing the escape room. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to try something fun and different. As always until next time...

We did the Timeliner room and thought the puzzles and set up were cool. We didn't ask for clues, but the person leading us along did offer up some nudges when we were stuck (or never going to get there). They even commented on how we found some things, so you know they were watching! One of my hang ups here was the online booking. I understand they want to fill every spot in a room, but I don't think every room should be open to multiple parties. Maybe there needs to be something asking if people are open to people they don't know. It's also nice when places offer a discount the more people book in your party. Other than the booking situation, I would definitely do another room here!

Spoiler alert, our team did not escape. But, our host Jonathan was helpful in providing clues when we asked and told us what we had missed when time ran out. All in all, it was a fun event! My only comment for future guests is that while our reservation allowed up to 8 people, 8 was a little tight once we got into the room. Based on the room size and activities you need to complete, you're probably better off with groups of 4-6.

However, I can't wait to return to this place! Kiera was SUCH a good host and guide if we got stuck. Super pleasant, while providing excellent clues that didn't spoil the fun by giving away too much. We were in the submarine room. The props were so realistic and cute! The room was COLD, but better that than hot! Kiera suggested the haunted house room next time we return, and we will definitely make it happen. xo

I would love to come back in the future with another person or a small group.

We were intent on going to Escape from St. Louis so we could head to The Blue Duck for dinner after. When times disappeared from the booking I decided to call and see what we could do. On speaking with the manager, after closing the bookings to allow for maintenance she indicated she thought she could still get us in so we could have our family night. She made it happen! The five of us arrived at the allotted time and our hostess was ready to go, explaining the process and getting us going. We had a GREAT time! Fun Wizard theme, great clues, we loved some of the tricks when we figured them out. We 'Escaped' with just seconds to spare, thanks, in part, to our great hostess and clues. Can't wait to go back and try a different Escape! The takeaway is great management, great staff, fun rooms, book your Escape here :)

I probably should rate with 5 stars but since I don't have anything else to compare to I decided on 4 stars. Everything was explained to us (even how to unlock the varied types of locks). There were scares, noises and frightful distractions! This was great family bonding for us to all work together and even tho we didn't finish - we had a few more puzzles to solve but not bad for our first time. We can't wait to try another escape room! We plan on making another trip in the fall and bringing a few of our friends. Definitely recommend!!

Very excited for this Escape Room in Carbondale! I've done over 30 escape rooms, and I have to say…read moreJeff (the owner) adds a lot of charm to his rooms and is very clearly excited about what he does. It is a reasonable price per person, and you reserve your room online. When you arrive, you fill out a waiver, and Jeff will go through the story premise with you himself. Then you and your group will have 60 minutes to escape the room's puzzles! (although note the room is not actually locked, so one can enter/exit whenever, you just won't "win" until you figure out the last puzzle). I thought the room we did (Egypt) had a good balance of task completions, puzzles, and technology. There is a timer in the room and cameras for monitoring. You are also given a walkie-talkie in the event you need a hint (although each hint costs you your points! but the points don't really matter in the end). I look forward to see what else the Panic Room has in store for Carbondale and think the seasonal rooms are a great idea.

Our group is very competitive and it was great to see everybody work so hard together to complete the task! In case you're wondering, yes, we solved it, but just barely!

The different holes makes it feel like you can literally interact with it and not just hitting the ball and moving on. We arrived before the huge crowd and were able to take our time with each course, but once the evening crowd comes, it gets packed in there. But you will be able to reserve a time slot online. The business also provides various themed escape rooms, unique pinball machines, and a bookshelf of board games while you're waiting on your time slot. Regarding the pinball machines, make sure you bring your own quarters to use them since it doesn't seem like they have a quarter machine.

They also have a small café area where you can get drinks and snacks during or before your adventure. Our expert librarian, Jack was very helpful and entertaining, helping us along our journey that day. It's a very creative spin on escape rooms. There were groups of children doing adventures as well, so it seems like it's good fun for all ages. I love that you can go through the adventures at your own pace and don't have a time limit. I also like that we were able to do an adventure where we battled in teams within our group. I think that was really exciting in a good spin!
