ESCAPETHEROOMers was very excited for this location in wellington as the advertising posters looked…read moreamazing and it definitely matched up it! The owners are two brothers and they are both super friendly. The facility is extremely spacious w/ three escape rooms and two more in the works. Xcape Wellington is only a couple blocks from the train station which takes you right into town. Before you start the room, you are in a dark room w/ a TV providing you instructions and the intro to your game. Next, a door will open for you to enter into your escape room. The minute we stepped in, we felt transported into a forest to begin our experience. This room had a combination of all different types of challenges from technological, physical, and intellectual. We were so impressed w/ this location and game design that we decided to attempt the "Asylum" room back to back. The same instruction process was given.The minute we stepped inside we felt fully immersed into a mental institute gone completely wrong. We felt as if we were trapped inside of one of Jigsaw's games. The quality and the attention to detail was insane (no pun intended). In comparison w/ "The Caretaker" room, "Asylum" felt slightly easier to us but more entertaining due to the storyline. We were fortunate enough to be able to take a peek inside of the third room challenge that they offer - "The Lost Tomb of Monthu" and it was amazing. Due to timing we couldn't try the third room. Xcape Wellington delivers quality throughout all of their rooms. Everything from the customer service to the the decor to the puzzle designs. An incredible experience and definitely one to remember! *For more info, check out my Yelp profile.

Me and two other friends took on the asylum room today and It was one of the funniest things we'd…read moreever done! The room was so well done with very detailed tricky puzzles and very good jumpscares! We didn't quite manage to make in in an hour but we were so close to the end they gave us extra time to finish it! We will all most definitely be back to take on the other rooms and recommend this place highly! It's affordable, and you really get your money's worth!
