We asked for clues and it took forever to get a reply, and the rooms were not up to the quality I'm used to from escape room sets. The challenges were just number challenges over and over, it wasn't very creative and when we didn't get out in time we couldn't even hear the video message that came at the end. Would not recommend. read more

We asked for a clue and it sometimes took them 10 minutes to acknowledge us. Sometimes the clues were things we already solved, it was like the person giving the clues wasn't paying attention. Would not recommend . We didn't find the lamp but it said we solved the puzzle, left more confused leaving then coming out read more

We visited in December 2019 and it was a disappointment. We arrived 15 minutes early as requested and then ended up having to wait 10 minutes after our start time for the other people who had purchased tickets in the same rooms as us to arrive. On top of keeping us waiting for the other people in the room we were in, the other people did not have a person over 18 years of age with them and were told it was OK because we did. As experienced escape room visitors it was really disappointing to see that the rules were not adhered to. Then, while in the room, we repeatedly showed that we had one of the locks correct, but the cabinet door that was opened by the lock was stuck. We were not believed that the door was stuck. The failure to be able to get the door opened was very frustrating when it was clear the door was stuck. Definitely not an escape room we will patronize again. read more

ESCAPETHEROOMers visited Elite Escape Room in Media, Pennsylvania back in March 2019. There is tons of parking outside the facility with a couple of restaurants right next door within the complex. The lobby is spacious with plenty of seating in the waiting area. We were fortunate enough to meet with the owner/ developer to learn more about the company and what inspired him to create the rooms. We tried "The Magician's Assistant" room that day but it has since been retired. Although "The Magician's Assistant" is still a work in progress since we beta tested at the time, it had a lot of potential. The room design was structured quite well with a lot of detail. The puzzle challenges correlated with the storyline which kept it interesting. There were some minor hiccups along the way which is an easy fix. We recommended some suggestions to improve the flow of the gameplay. We took a peek at the other two rooms - "Escape From Oz" and "Andy's Room" in order get an idea of his finished projects. We are confident that once completed, "The Magician's Assistant" will offer the same type of quality. We look forward to visiting the new location once it opens! *For more info, check out my Yelp profile. read more

Host was very friendly and was able to juggle multiple rooms at the same time very well and smoothly. The rooms weren't cheesy or too easy. Each room had a nice theme. The only thing that would help for five stars is for better decorated, realistic escape the room. I've been to other escape the rooms where the room was more well decorated and realistic. read more

After asking my fellow mom's for some recommendations on a good, family friendly Escape room (our kids are 6), we landed on Elite Escape in Exton. They had three rooms to choose from - a Video Game theme, Wizard of Oz, and Aladdin. The gentleman who answered the phone when we called in was very helpful - we told him our group size, the ages of the kids, and our "goal," and he helped us pick the right room. We landed on Aladdin since the kids had seen the movie and it was a larger room (there were 8 of us total, five adults and three kids). WARNING - Aladdin literally takes place in a desert. The floor of the room is covered in sand. I would not recommend this room to anyone with sensitive eyes or breathing issues - in fact, I removed a star since this wasn't addressed in advance. Other than that, everything was perfect - the manager gave us clues as needed to keep us on track so that the kids could finish the room in the allotted time (I love that he got this - what six year olds want to lose an escape room?!). The level of puzzles/clues was a good mix - there were plenty for us adults to figure out, but still plenty for the kids to do on their own. There's a clue that involves smelling something -- they LOVED it. I highly recommend this as a Covid-friendly activity. It felt clean, we were in our own room, and the kids got out of the house for a little bit (what more can a parent ask for in the winter?!). And the fact that it is near Victory Brewing didn't hurt either.... read more

Elite Escape was my first time doing an 'escape room' and it was awesome!! Todd (owner) was incredibly accommodating - he even reached Back out, letting me know the room I initially wanted to reserve became avail! He was super helpful throughout the whole process, very nice and funny! Highly recommend!! read more

Wish there was zero stars. Very bad experience. Owner didn't even take the time to get out of the chair to welcome his guest and present a storyline. Which just created frustration and disappointment. So many better choices in the area, don't waste your money. read more

It was fine. Not great, not horrible. We did the Aladdin room. Some of the puzzles did not really fit the theme and seemed random. The props felt cheap. The gamemaster gave us too many clues, even when we weren't asking for them. If you've never been to an escape room and are just looking for a fun time, this will be fun. We do a lot of escape rooms and this ranks as one of the lowest simply because it's not sophisticated enough and our experience was poor due to too many clues given. read more

if i could give it 0 stars i would. Aladdin room was terrible, it didn't make sense, the room was filled with sand and after a while it gave you a headache. You only get four hints per game and they were the same hints each time. Do not go. read more

Todd was fantastic being able to juggle all three rooms that we were all used by our group! Andy's room was a lot of fun and we all want to try the other rooms they have! Can't wait for them to open their 7 room Escape room in Pottstown! We will definitely be returning! Thank you Todd and Elite Escape! read more

I really enjoyed doing the escape room here. A friend and I did the Escape from Oz room and were pleased with how we were able to get through it with little hints. It was hard enough to make you think, but not so hard that you felt like you couldn't do it. read more

We went today with a group of 10 people in the "Escape your Fears" room. This is the third room escape room I have done and it was awesome!!! We all had a great time and loved the different puzzles. We will be going back and doing the two other rooms!!! read more

Great time had here with my party of 10. The host was very friendly and explained the rules to us with humor and patience. We tried the Wizard of Oz themed room first and took just over a half hour to complete. We enjoyed the set up and the puzzles so much we asked if Andy's Room had been booked. We got lucky and it was available so we did a second room. These two rooms are great for beginners trying out escape rooms. The hard room at this place was called Escape Your Fears. We may try to tackle that one at some point. The restroom was clean and water was available outside the themed rooms. Reasonable price also at $26.50 a person. Not sure if our group's organizer found a deal on Groupon so the normal price might be higher. Easy location in a strip center near plenty of restaurants just off the PA turnpike. read more

Very disappointed with the Aladdin room. The puzzle to start makes no sense and hints are all the same when given, not helping at all. Came a few minutes late and our time was cut in half with no sympathy from staff. read more

We did Escape from Oz and Toy Story rooms. We loved them both. It was a fantastic experience, great rooms, great puzzles. Well-maintained facility with an easy to get to location. read more

Great local escape room place! The rooms are so creative and well thought out. It's my 3rd time here and the rooms are always changing up to keep things fresh. Fun vintage arcade games along the hallway to play while you're waiting to start. Highly recommend! read more

Hints were not helpful at all. They were not helpful at all when booking the room. Came a few minutes late and cut our time in half. Waste of my money. Very passive aggressive with me coming into our room after time was up saying "Looks like you could have used those extra 30 minutes." Worst escape room of my life. read more

One of the best escape rooms in the area! The facility is clean and the rooms look professionally decorated. You truly are immersed into the story! The puzzles are challenging but so fun! Definitely give them a try read more
