My family has done around 20 or 30 escape rooms over the past 8 or 10 years, two of which were at…read morethis location. We just did their Great Outdoors room a couple of weeks ago, and what can I say? It was top notch and a lot of fun. Many of the escape rooms we've done at other places just make you solve a dozen puzzles that are all similar. Solve a numeric code. Solve another numeric code. Boring. But, this place's escape rooms have a much wider variety of types of puzzles to solve, and it's much more fun than just solving one number code after another. You have to figure out how to open one room, which leads to another room, which leads to another room, each room with different types of puzzles to solve. We still needed a few clues here and there, but, overall, the puzzles were tough, but not unsolvable. I don't want to give away too many details that would ruin the puzzles for readers. I'll just say that the rooms are quite clever, and full of nice surprises. We are in this town only about once a year, but, you can bet that we'll be back again next year. This bunch of escape rooms at this location is superior to the ones we tried at a different place up the road from a different organization. I think this outfit has the best escape rooms in the Dells.

This place has three escape rooms to solve. Their entry-level room is a mission to Mars, their…read moremiddle-level room is a quest to get to shelter because a tornado is coming, and their hard-level room is a quest to save yourself from the sinking Titanic. If you haven't done escape rooms before, you should definitely do the Mars one. It's fun for beginners. It's also cheaper and takes a shorter time duration. There aren't as many puzzles to solve as the middle level or most difficult one. But, it's still quite fun to do. The most fun is in the tornado room. They had an option to do it with the lights on or off, and we chose to leave the lights on. There is enough going on already, and we didn't need to be distracted by having it be too dark. The puzzles are a little tougher, and this one takes a full hour to finish. The theme is great, and the variety of things to solve is perfect. It's not just a routine of solving one number code after another. The toughest one is the Titanic room. And, I can't help but lower my rating of this place from 5 stars to only 4 stars as a result. I don't mind that it's tougher. That's fine, and that's not the reason I am deducting a star. There's a difference between making something tougher, vs. making something that absolutely nobody would understand. This room is around half of the size of the tornado room, yet, it has double the amount of things to solve. And, frankly, some of the puzzles are just a bit too cryptic for my liking. They just went a little too far with confusing things to figure out, that didn't really lead anywhere. It's a shame, because 70% of this room has some really great features that most people will really have fun with. But, about 30% of the stuff you need to solve is just impossible without taking clues from the staff, and even after getting the clues, it still doesn't make much sense. And, they really need to make this one 1.5 hours long to accommodate all of the things you need to finish. Overall, though, I'd recommend any of these rooms, even the difficult Titanic room. I just think that room needs a little more time allotted, and a bit of tweaking to a few of the puzzles to make them more reasonable.

Not for the faint of heart…read more I have mixed feelings. We went around 11am on a rainy day during spring break. There was a line. It wasn't super long, but it was slow moving because they give each family their tablet and explain how things work. Waiting in a slow line is really hard for kids when they are super excited. I wish the people at the desk just sold tickets and that they had someone in the starting room explain the tablets to a group at a time to speed things up. Some people behind us in line bought tickets in advance online and were annoyed that they had to stand in the same ticket line as everyone else. Buying tickets online does not expedite things at all. There was no line when we left, so maybe late afternoon is a better arrival time. Overall, the design of the questing area is very cool. There is a lot to explore, and there are lots of fun details and secret passageways to explore. My kids are age 7 and 9 and really enjoyed it overall. As a parent, 2 hours was way too long for younger kids. It would have been perfect for teens and adults, but it is way too long for younger kids. We're pretty fit, and we were exhausted by the end because there is a lot of walking and going up and down the stairs. We were also carrying our kids coats and umbrellas as we didn't see the lockers until the end. Tip; Ditch any gear before questing. There are very few places to sit and take a break along the way. This would be a very poor choice attraction for anyone with mobility issues or anyone who can't handle a lot of walking. I wouldn't bring grandparents along on this adventure. We ended up taking a break in the snack area, and they paused our quest, so taking a break wouldn't count towards the 2 hours. I wish we didn't pause the quest because we ended up deciding we were done after 90 minutes of questing time, but 2 hours of being there, and our kids did not want to leave time on the clock. As a parent, this was a lot. My kids were SO excited to find things and explore, but I felt a bit stressed because there are lots of passageways and secret doors, and any time another family exposed some secret entrance, they immediately wanted to run through it. I had to be on high alert to avoid losing them to their impulses to go through any secret passages they stumbled upon. I read everything on their website, some online reviews, and watched videos about Wizard Quest, but I wish I had more info going into this about what to expect. We finished 3 quests. We would have to come back multiple times to complete everything. That would have been nice to know going into it to manage kid expectations. People in larger bodies might have a hard time navigating certain areas because some passages are quite narrow. There are 3 levels. We never made it to the fire area in the basement, and I feel like most of our time was in the earth area. Tip:choose quests that start in different realms to explore different areas. There was a lot of walking back and forth, going back to places we already explored. I wish there was an option to tap for a hint in the app instead of asking the staff. We went inside the tree so many times. When my kids had trouble finding what they needed to complete the task, we had to circle around, come down, and loop around to ask for a hint and then go back up again (and again and again). The staff is helpful, but having to go in circles to get a hint was frustrating for younger kids. They wanted to finish the task and move on to explore new areas. I also wish there was a back feature in the app. When little kids tap through quest details quickly, They miss important information. Both kids had a blast and said it was 4 stars and want to go back. I had fun, but I also feel like I would wait several years before considering a return trip.

Enjoyed the fact that we could book a private room, so there were only two of us, which was nice but also tough! There were some technical difficulties with their computers so the game master had to run in and give us a clue at one point which wasted some time. The room was tough and there were a lot of misleading things that took us off track but added to the fun. We had the key and new will in our hand when time ran out so 30 more seconds and we would've broken out but I'll say without the clues we wouldn't have made it as far. Overall had a great time and would try another room here.

You can easily reserve a room on their website - their website is easy to navigate and gives just enough information about each room to give you insight into what the experience will be like, while still leaving you curious and wanting to know more. 2. The escape room we did was well designed and fully immersive - once we stepped into the room, we completely forgot about the outside world and were able to really get into solving the puzzles. 3. The puzzles themselves were logical, fun to solve, and numerous enough that our group of 8 could work on several puzzles at once without feeling like we were getting in each other's way. I really appreciated that all the puzzles made sense and fully aligned with the theme of the room as well. 4. After we finished, the staff talked us through the room and gave us great insight into the success rate of the room and how we did overall. Whether you're looking for your first escape room experience or you're a seasoned escape room adventurer, Escape This is the place for you!

When we walked out, we asked the game master about this particular puzzle and he realized that it had not been set up so we would have never been able to get our next clue.
