Mac was amazing and super sweet! The kitty room was so cute love it!!!LOL!! Would recommend!!

Went for the first time to this location, this past weekend. My friends and I did the Spy vs Spy room. It was honestly the best escape room I have ever done. Our game master Mac did an excellent job and had the whole group laughing the whole time. I have not stopped talking about it since. Already planning to go back soon. Shout out to Mac and cheese for our 5 star experience :) read more

Kitty Cat-astrophe was so much fun! This was my first time doing an escape room with my cousins + 2 little ones. We had a great instructor name Nick. He was very helpful. We made it out and had 18.05 seconds left. read more

I came here with my niece and sister today. Booking a room in advance was pretty straightforward. I've never done an escape room before so I wasn't sure what to expect with regards to pricing or the overall experience. Our host, Michael, was excellent. He had such a great attitude and made everything more fun with his interactions. The themes for each room we did were pretty fun. If you've never done an escape room, I recommend giving it a shot. I might go back if I'm ever with friends and family again. read more

I never knew we had an escape room in Elk Grove! This is seriously one of the best activities in town! We did the wizard room and it was seriously sooooo much fun! It reminds me of Harry Potter. Our host Gigi was AMAZING!! She was so funny, sweet, helpful, and really go into her role. This is my 3rd time doing an escape room type of activity and this was the best one I've ever done. Great for a double date idea ( like we did) ,perfect for birthdays ,or even team bonding activities. read more

This was my second time here, and my groups first. We had a blast with our host Nick doing the Spy v Spy room. My cousin and I carried the boomers on the team ;) but everyone had lots of fun. I'm glad there is a space like this in EG. The rooms are very interactive with lots to figure out. Definitely recommend that everyone tries this place. read more

First time here on a whim with my friends and we definitely did not regret it! Staff is super friendly and we were so lucky to have Mac guide us through. Loved her energy and how much she made our group laugh from start to finish. We chose the Wizard room (medium difficulty) and it was super fun at $35/person as a group of 4. Our group escaped with 3 minutes to spare thanks to the CLUES. It's in a rather secluded area but I don't mind that. It did say appointment only on the door but not sure if they are strict on that. My friends and I still booked online in advance anyways. Would definitely recommend. read more

I wish new ones would come out more often! Im always so excited to try out new ones, so I check the website quite often. Looking forward to the next escape room. read more

Michael was a great game master. We had a lot of fun with room and the puzzles. I would definitely recommend exit strategy games!

It was really fun, Michael and Cece were excellent gamemasters and ill Def be coming back to try another escape room

Second time at Exit Strategy. Our game master Steve is a great narrator! His voice fit the theme almost too well Did a scary escape room today. It was pretty good and a good amount of difficulty. The process to check in was also super fast. Would recommend and looking forward to getting into more rooms since they reset and retheme them every once in a while. read more

Mac was the sweetest! 100% recommend going there with family and friends. We did the butcher the butcher kind of have a zesty voice ngl kind of sounded like a discord moderator. Didn't mind being kidnapped by the butcher read more

My family had so much fun here. We had our brains running at max speed and we jumped and laughed a lot everytime we succesfully solved a hint or unlocked a lock. The Butcher room was fun, its set-up was one-of-the-kind that I have not seen at other escape room locations. You should try. We ESCAPED tho :) Gigi was super nice and helpful. She gave us a weekday promo code to save some $ and also guided us through out the game when we got stuck for too long. This place is highly recommended for family bonding and friends. Prices are considered reasonable and even cheaper than other locations. read more

Came here on a Friday night to do the Spy vs Spy room. We had a 9:30pm reservation but probably didn't go in until closer to 10:00pm. While that would normally bother me, our game master Chris really helped keep us entertained in the meantime while other parties were wrapping up. I could really tell he enjoys his job considering how emphatically he set up the story for us. I also really enjoyed his humor, and how he picked up on our group's humor so quickly and matched our banter. I didn't feel very much awkwardness after the first couple of minutes. Once we got into the room I really enjoyed the puzzles and how they all tied in together, as well as the AI aspect of it all. I won't get into any details, since I don't want to spoil one bit, but this set of puzzles does a really great job at keeping the whole party engaged, which can be difficult the more people there are for any escape room. We finished the room in a little over half an hour, which is a little on the faster side, but I still feel I got my money's worth since I was entertained and actively working on puzzles the whole time. I've come here before for the wizarding school room and enjoyed it, so definitely open to coming back for the other rooms, especially since it's down the street from me. read more

We didn't know Elk Grove had escape rooms!! It was awesome!! My cousins and I chose the Butcher's Torture Chamber room (the hardest room) and it was really fun! Great puzzles and we had to communicate very effectively and thoroughly! We escaped with only 6 minutes left! Our gamemaster, Mac, was super friendly and helpful!! She guided us through the Escape Room process and was super energetic and in character for the job!!! So glad to have had her as our host/guide! We would definitely come again thanks to her and the games! read more

Great hosts! Awesome rooms! We've been here twice so far and had a blast both times!!! Thanks for the fun memories! Will definitely come back in the future. Highly recommend read more

Recently did two rooms at this location because we had a relative visiting. We started off with their spy vs spy--which we really enjoyed, and their wizard room. Both rooms were entertaining, and we enjoyed our visit. Shout out to our game masters Chris and Mike (I think that was their names, sorry if it isn't). They both throughly explained our games and made us enjoy it even more. Enough to where we ended up signing up for another game. read more

This was our first time here, Gigi helped us set the mood, she really go into character, she was inspiring and has a magical spirit. (Spoilers: BWARE of TROLLS) We did the NUMA puzzle and we left with 6 minutes with no hints, it wasn't easy but it wasn't hard, it was actually perfect difficulty. Try this place out! read more

They are so friendly and helpful! We took my daughter for her 13th bday. Her and her friends had a blast.

Came here a while ago for a cousins night and it was a great time! The plot for the room we were in was spy themed. The KGB versus the FBI, and honestly there were some great twists and turns throughout the room. Some of the puzzles were a bit difficult but it was worth it, & everyone was able to contribute within each of the mini groups. read more

Gigi was so amazing and friendly. The whole escape room was scary hard and amazing. We have come so many times and always have so much fun! They deffo go the extra mile and we love coming anytime family is in town! read more

Place is a little hard to find, but it's near the Elk Grove Food Bank. Chris was our game master. Our group did the Spy vs Spy game. Loved everything from the start. Chris was awesome and funny! What a great way to do team bonding. read more

Mac was an excellent host!! Super friendly! We did the Kitty Kat challenge and we had an amazing time. Highly recommended

Came here for a birthday celebration. I thought it was pretty fun and cute. We booked the Hide and Squeak, and finished it in about 20 minutes, granted our group was bigger than usual. Each riddle was fun and interactive with each room. Definitely recommend coming here if this is your first escape room style game. read more

We played Spy vs. Spy with Tony as our GM and we had so much fun!! They made all of the rules clear and made sure we knew what was going on. I'll definitely be back to play through more rooms :) read more

The scout troop had a great time and were able to solve the Wizarding room with 5 minutes to spare! One of the troop members (ages middle-high school) has done the "hide and squeak" room with a birthday party and recommends that one as well. Michael was the troop's game master and was very personable, funny, and made the kids new to escape rooms comfortable in the new environment. read more

We did the butchers room and it was so much fun! We were a group of six. It was definitely challenging. Can't wait to try the other rooms!

Nick was an engaging and chill GM for our group of 7! We started with just one room (Kitty Cat-astrophe), but ended up doing two more (wizarding school & the butcher). It was super fun and the wizard one honestly really picked our brains. Time really flies when you're in the rooms! I really appreciate Nick for stepping in when we were really stuck, but also letting us figure things out when we were starting to turn those gears in our heads! Thank you so much Nick for making this a fun experience; will definitely be back to try the other rooms! read more

I came here with a group of friends from work past & present. This was the first time I had gone to this particular escape room and I've done one other escape room at a different place previously. We did The Butcher's Torture Chamber, which was a hard difficulty room and I will not spoil it for you, but it was great! For this particular room, you need to be able to communicate well with your team. That's all I will say. We finished with less than a minute left! Chris was our game master and made the experience fun. We did need a little help here and there but overall it was challenging but very well thought out. Some additional things they ask that you leave your items in a locker, taking pictures is not allowed (I didn't risk it!), they will take pictures of you after you finished the room. The rooms have cameras so the staff are able to assist you and make sure you have a safe experience. I will absolutely be back to try their other rooms! read more

What a great experience here! We did the butcher's torture Chamber and that was really challenging but definitely forced all of us to be engaged and participate. We spent a lot of time on one silly task so I think we could have finished faster but oh well. Still had so much fun. Definitely want to try the spy one. read more

Michael was amazing, great escape room, I'd highly recommend going and doing the wizard room.

My 8 & 11 year old did the Wizard School one with 2 of their 11 year old friends. They did it completely on their own and beat it with 1 minute to spare! My husband and I trusted the staff and they were amazing! We were able to just sit outside in our car while they did their thing. We came in about 15 minutes before they finished and we could hear them laughing and getting a hint from their attendant. It was adorable and they had a blast. My 11 yo is now obsessed with escape rooms and keeps asking to do it again! Will definitely be bringing her and her friends back again. read more

Although there are several escape room spots in Sacramento, we decided to test our intelligence at Exit Strategy Games in Elk Grove. We had planned to be in the area, thought the Santa's Workshop would be fun for the kids and they had great reviews. We were two families of 4 with the youngest being 3 years old and oldest being 13. We arrived a few minutes prior to our stop time as requested and met our host Calidah. We took a few minutes to use the bathroom, lock away our cell phones, talk about safety and then the fun began. We were debriefed and entered Santa's Workshop. We had a slow start as it took us a while to figure out where to even start but finally got things under way after a hint from Calidah. She kept a good eye on our group keeping us on track and even diverting the kids to help with another puzzle while us adults patiently worked together to figure out another. The puzzles varied in difficulty. There are some that are straight forward while others require a little more thought, memory and recognizing things around the room. We managed to escape the room with 7 seconds to spare. Calidah congratulated us and took a few photos of us that were emailed and texted after. The price is right, we all had fun and the kids are looking forward to returning for the Squirrel and Wizard rooms. read more

Our host, Mike, was awesome and really made the experience fun. For most of us, it was our very first escape room, and my brother chose The Butcher Torture Chamber. It was intense but such a blast! We got lucky and managed to escape with just over a minute to spare. Definitely planning on coming back! read more

Exit Strategy Games put on a super fun and Christmas themed escape room! A group of 10 friends went last night to challenge ourselves to their escape room called Noel's Nutty Christmas. We arrived 15mins early as instructed which gave us time to use the restrooms, put our phones and bags in a locker, and sign the mandatory waiver in case we hadn't already. I noticed right next to the waiting area is the control room where the gamemaster's hang out, watch us, prompt clues, and scold us or give clues if necessary while people are in their escape rooms. We were greeted by gamemaster Gigi and told we were just waiting for our escape room to finish being set up for us. Once it was ready, Gigi escorted us to the entry door and gave us a brief introductory story to the room we were about to attempt to solve/escape from and set some basic rules. Gigi brought the energy and the subtle humor and we were led into the room! We watched a short animated video on the TV in our room that set us up to understand our mission and then the timer was set to an hour and we were off to solving puzzles! The room was decorated very well, immersing us into the story in a life-like way. There were many locked boxes to discover the codes for, a door to discover the lock code for, and other mathematical and artistic puzzles for us to solve along the way. It was a very fun journey that definitely required the effort of our whole group. We were given two clues throughout the hour that were displayed on the TV which helped us advance and although we had the opportunity to ask for clues from our gamemaster through an intercom, we never did. We solved the last puzzle with about 16mins to spare and as we were beginning to celebrate, our closing gamemaster, Tony came to congratulate us. He was impressed by our problem-solving skills throughout the game and said he enjoyed watching us. Humble brag, he said he thought we solved the game the fastest out of any group thus far! Lastly, Tony took three group pictures of us in the room and let us out for the night. There were shirts and themed stuffed animals for purchase on our way out. Exit strategy Games was such a fun experience - definitely would recommend and I want to go back as well! read more
