    Talk about some amazing escape rooms! In my opinion, this is in the top two of escape room venues in Albuquerque. My wife and I participated in an escape room enthusiasts gathering in Albuquerque recently and, among the 15 rooms we did together during the tour, 3 were already scheduled here (and we did the fourth during our downtime). Each one was an absolute blast. Top pick for my wife was Rattlesnake Junction. It was a delightfully immersive space, making you feel like you just stepped into a small Old West town. The game featured a unique hint mechanism that aided in feeling like you were in a real space with actual people. The puzzles themselves were generally intuitive, though we did fall prey to one of our usual traps. Still, if you don't have our bad habit, you're going to have a great time. We still did in spite of our momentary blunder! My top was probably Jumanji. A fun homage to the game, it had my favourite kind of layout. The transitions between areas was fun and generally logical and the set design was lovely. My only complaint would be that I almost wish the last area was larger or had an extra room. Otherwise, loved it completely! The other two rooms are no slouches, either. Mayan Temple is a fairly traditional ancient ruin themed room, but it executes it well. The lighting presents the biggest challenge but never makes anything impossible. Area 53 is a space escape which, in some ways, I wish could be expanded further, but it also featured a unique puzzle trick that we'd never seen before and became a favourite talking point. In addition to the rooms, the business is in a great location, has knowledgeable staff, and very approachable owners. If you're in Albuquerque for any reason, I definitely recommend stopping here for a room or four!

    Shorter games than "Escape Room" which is simply a different business model. Feels satisfying to be able to finish a room within an hour. Fairly interactive elements here.

    We had a lot of fun! We have a group of friends that we get together and do escape rooms and we have been to Bust Out Escape Room several times and actually both locations. And have always had a great time! The staff has always been very friendly and helpful, especially in the extra clues they give you On Saturday we did Escape Jumanji and ever who created and designed this room did a great job! The two guys at the front desk were very friendly and the guy that helped us with the clues did a great job, I wish I could remember his name to give hime credit. We actually escaped with 12 minutes to spare!! The facility is well maintained and very clean. I would highly recommend visiting Bust Out with a few friends and enjoy the experience! We always do!

    Busting out!

    It was a lot of fun. Guy was very accommodating to our group since some were running late.

    Camp Crystal lake was very well thought out and Jumanji was very immersive.

    We had a lot of fun doing the "Escape the 80's" themed room. We visited right after Christmas, so…read moremy daughter was excited to do this room as it was right in the middle of the last season of Stanger Things which she loves & since it is set in the 80's it worked out perfectly. All of the puzzles they had set up worked well with the theme of the room, some of the puzzles were obviously easier than others but they all were exciting to complete. There were six of us in total & there were enough puzzles for all of us to be able to work on something whether it was alone or with a partner to escape the room faster. We think they did a great job with decorating the room to feel like it was straight out of the 80's, we had two party members who were teens in the 80's, two who were born in 89/91 and two in the 2000's so it was a great experience for the different ages. If we were to visit Albuquerque again, we would visit again to do one of their other rooms.

    This is the first escape room I have ever done and I had a blast. I could not have chosen a better…read moreplace to be my first escape room. I booked the ZOMBIES!!! room with my brother (just the two of us) and we had the room -- and all of the puzzles -- to ourselves. This room was rated at a 7/10 difficulty, but we both like zombies, so we gave it a shot. The staff was friendly when we checked in, gave us a quick run-down of the process and what to expect, and we got to solving. We got stuck a couple of times and were able to easily get a hint, and then after we ran out of time, they showed us a big surprise we were almost able to solve. I am sure there are a lot of escape room options, but I recommend this one for sure. The next time I am in town, I will try out another one of their rooms.

Dragons House of Horror was previously lacking a bit in that there were periods of walking in which you would be walking without anything scary happening and boredom would set in. This is now a thing of the past! Now the entire mile is full of constant attraction and there is so much to see! The best part? They did not raise the price! And you will NOT wait in a line! How? They put your name and cell phone on a list so that you can enjoy their carnival like festival with escape room, food vendors, and more and they will text you when it is your turn to enter the haunted house! How amazing is that? If you are a fan of McCall's you will not want to miss this! I actually think they may have surpassed McCall's this year!

We bought three multi passes at $30/piece to get into two/three attractions. The first one was alright (advertised as a mile long, took under ten minutes) but didn't even scare the person who'd never been to a scare before and had only two good actors. The maze had aprox five actors two of which were kids. Do not recommend.
