    We've been there twice and their rooms are very challenging and thought provoking. Jordan did a great job helping our team!

    Employees must not have prepped the room appropriately because clues were in incorrect boxes or…read morelocks were broken and hints were incorrect (clock told the wrong time, magnets for the next clue were in the wrong box, keys did not work). Disappointing.

    My friends and I did the Zombie Refuge room this evening in celebration of my 30th birthday, and…read morewere far from impressed with the staff. The guy working there was not at all enthused or pleasant to work with. He barely greeted us, wasn't in the spirit. Also, the video intro that we were asked to observe before our time started very clearly stated that clues would not be used twice, and yet one of the puzzles was only solvable by reusing a clue. When we pointed this out to the guy after, he denied it repeatedly. He refused to acknowledge the error, despite all 6 of us being confident it was in the video. The idea for the room was cool, but there were some executional flaws. And it ended very abruptly on our escape. It didn't feel like there was any closure. Finally, when we escaped our room, the staff made no attempt to come get us in a timely manner. When he did finally come get us, he said "that's it. Thanks guys" and offered us no opportunity to take a photo with the props, didn't tell us our final time, or invite us to come back again. As an escape room aficionado, I expect a higher caliber of service and immersion than my friends and I received during this visit. Will not be returning.

    Unfortunately this was one of the less fun Escape Rooms I've done in Milwaukee. There were four of…read moreus in our group and 3 others we didn't know. We all worked together fine, but it was extremely hard to even get started on the puzzle in the room. Most Escape Rooms that we've done at least give you a hint or guide you in a direction. But we had to ask for help almost immediately (and by immediately I mean after about 20 minutes of trying to figure it out ourselves). A lot of the puzzles were too difficult to even guess at how to solve. The room we were in had a number counter that went from 0 - 100 and back to 0. It just kept going. We finally had to ask what we were supposed to do with it and they told us that we were supposed to press the button to make it stop on the same number that was displayed before it started counting. Never in a million years would I have thought to do that. Nor was there any indication that that was what we were supposed to do anywhere in the process. There are far better Escape Rooms in Milwaukee than this one. Go to one of those.

    7 of us went to do the "Full Throttle" room on a Saturday night…read more All of us have done multiple escape rooms in the past. This was the worst put together and least professional experience we've ever had. Extremely disappointed. Our "game master" told us at the start that her and her "best friend" would be watching us and giving clues along the way. We were stuck at two points in the game and had to scream at the camera to alert someone. Both times she came on the speaker and asked "So what have you figured out so far." They were clearly not watching. We finished in 40 minutes but only because the gal on the speaker said "Ok, you've escaped" and came in the room. There was no true escaping. She informed us that the "Full Throttle" room hadn't been working properly and many of the tasks in the room weren't working or linked properly. She went on to say that last week someone broke a handle off of one of the cabinets that was part of a task we needed to do. Also, she informed us a yellow light we needed was burned out. She was very unapologetic about all of the broken items. We could not believe that we paid money for this. I had mentioned a refund but she ignored us. We asked if we could take a picture so the gal did take our pic but there were no cute signs to hold or even a wall with the logo to stand in front of. We paid money for an activity that was not working properly. The one employee that we did deal with was very unprofessional. The "Full Throttle" Room needs to be shut down and fixed before any other people waste their money.

    This was my second time doing an escape room but first time with Save Milwaukee. What I liked about…read moreSave Milwaukee is that they give you a scenario which seems to create more urgency and also a reason (aside from just getting out of the room) to crack the codes. There were 6 of us total celebrating a friend's birthday. As soon as we entered the room we set about our task. We received periodic updates to the scenario and I won't say much more as to not spoil the game for others. We got out with ten seconds to spare!! I'm 2 for 2 on getting out of escape rooms. Only odd thing was they suggested we create agent names and we wrote them on our sheets but they never came to play. Perhaps that was up to us to embrace more. They have two rooms and I'm looking forward to trying out the 2nd room!

I'm back home for the holidays and was excited to introduce a group of Milwaukee friends to my new obsession. I gotta say, this room was a very pleasant surprise. While the look of the room was a little bland, the puzzles were for the most part excellent. It's rare I run into a puzzle that's totally new to me, and this room had two memorable standouts. Great use of technology, including puzzles that require physical teamwork (the best kind). The owner/operator was a friendly, quirky gentleman who enthusiastically brought us into the story of the room. We had a chance to chat with him afterwards and his next room, The Election, sounds fantastic - wish I was going to be around when it opens! My only gripe about this place was that we found it too easy - we broke the record and escaped in about 25 minutes. That was probably due to having a couple veterans on the team. If this is one of your first rooms (and seeing as I've only found 6 in Milwaukee, it probably is!), I absolutely recommend it. Good times!
