I came here with 5 other friends. This was my first time in an escape room. I did the Mayan Tomb so my review is based on that. It is located on John Street in Morristown. It can be a little tricky to find since there are several buildings nearby but hopefully you can get in so you at least make an attempt at getting out. I was skeptical but this is definitely a great night out with friends to do something different. You have to think and work as a team or you will never make it out. read more

We did the Jewel Heist escape room, which was one of the more innovative and exciting rooms I've participated in. This had a good mix of logic puzzles with some physical elements mixed in. There was tons of room to move around for our party of eight. There were some VERY interesting mechanics in this room that helped build tension. Excellent design, smart puzzles, and a close finish that left us with about a minute at the end. This IS a harder room, so eat a good breakfast and get a good night's sleep before. read more

On September 10 we took a birthday party group to Last Minute Escape on John Street in Morristown. We have done other escape rooms, but never for a birthday party before. The Mayan Temple room at Last Minute Escape is probably the best escape room we have ever done. Avoiding spoilers: the puzzles are creative and nicely thematic (meaning they match the story that the room tells). The game master was observant and helped just enough to keep the puzzle flow going. And we solved it with 41 seconds to spare :-) Definitely recommend this one for puzzle room afficianados and novices alike. read more

Came here with 4 other people for a friend's low-key birthday celebration. It was my first time going to an "escape room" and I have to say it was pretty fun! We did the "Mayan Tomb" which is an hour long thing. I think it had something like a 52% success rate. Well, I'm happy to report that our little group solved this thing with a whole entire ~15 seconds~ to spare! We were pretty relieved that we weren't in the bottom 48% of escapists. If you succeed in escaping then you get to high five eachother, autograph a whiteboard, and have your picture taken holding that whiteboard. I'd share our picture, but one of our friends has a vulgar nickname and so the whiteboard says "Happy birthday *vulgar nickname*!" and I'm not sure that's appropriate for Yelp. read more

We were 8 people in December 2016 who were enjoying the challenge and made it almost to the end. We would have solved the game had the light sequence been functioning properly. After time ran out, our host came into the room to show us the correct sequence and could not do it herself. She confirmed the malfunction. A waste of our time and money. There was no offer of a refund or do over at another time. We felt unfulfilled and cheated. read more

Had an amazing time at the Morristown location trying to escape the Mayan tomb. The room was challenging and a lot of fun. Staff member was very friendly and helpful. Would highly recommend to any "escape the room" fans. read more

We wanted something fun to do over President's Day weekend and Last Minute Escape was fantastic! We have done a lot of Escape Rooms and this was one of the best - all the clues make sense and work together to propel you forward in your escape. We did the Mayan Tomb and found the setting and scenery to be very well done. We were four adults and it was the perfect number for everyone to feel involved and we were able to escape with a few minutes to spare! We plan to go back and do the Jewel Heist. read more

We had so much FUN!!! We are a family of 4, ages from 9-51, and we all enjoyed it. Staff was friendly, gave us hints to keep the hunt going. We did Mayan Tomb. I would definitely recommend this to everyone!! read more

We have done almost every room with last minute escape in all their locations. They're so fun! Staffs amazing. We're addicted and on a mission to do all the rooms! read more

I arranged this for my work team, as part of a team-building experience. We definitely enjoyed the Jewel Heist challenge! We failed, but it was fun, challenging, and exciting...so time and money well spent if you are looking for a corporate team-building event. I am going to go back and try the easier Mayan Tomb room and see how that is - but I expect it will also be a great experience! read more

We went to the Morristown location last night. 7 Adults, no kids. We had a blast. Staff was very friendly, facility was clean. We had a great time on our adventure. read more

Loved it! We did the Jewel Heist and had a great time. Glad clues when we needed and puzzles were really hard. We managed to escape with maybe 2 minutes left. Can't wait to try the Mayan Tomb. Highly highly recommended. read more

Went with my husband and kids and we had a great time! We didn't get out, but it was still awesome. We each tried a different clue and puzzle. Perhaps would have been better with a full room (8 people) since there was so much to do. We will definitely be going back when the answer Jewel Heist opens in Morristown. We will also venture to some of the other ones. Wish the price was a bit lower, especially bc the kids loved it so much and want to keep finding rooms to solve. We knew this would be a fun activity and it exceeded our expectations. read more

Last Minute Escape are the most polished and immersive escape rooms in New Jersey. My favorite rooms are Jewel Heist and Submarine. Bring friends, because a lot of their puzzles are team oriented. Their staff is also very friendly. read more

Looking for a way to make a memory for my mother's 81st birthday that would be enjoyable for my 10 & 11 year old children also. We chose the Mayan Tomb escape and had a blast. The rooms were well thought out and puzzles were challenging yet not so hard that everyone couldn't contribute. It was my mothers first escape room experience and now she wants to do more! Last minute escape did a great job on setting, back story and room set up. We had a blast and will go back again! read more

The Mayan Tomb is a challenging escape room experience that crams in a ton of themed puzzles (logic, teamwork, hand-eye coordination, etc). It's lovingly built utilizing the individual skill sets of a group of teachers. You'll find original content here, not a carbon copied boxed escape room chain. The Last Minute Escape brand is expanding into other games around NJ so check em' out! read more

I took my team to the Mayan Tomb room in Morristown. The venue was great about opening midday for our adventure, which was a total blast and showed how well the team works together -- yes, we got out! Highly recommend! read more

My friends and I just completed the Submarine room in Montclair. The staff clearly put a lot of effort into the planning of the room. It was really well done. We found it challenging, but were able to complete the room by working as a team. I would absolutely recommend this room for both beginners and returning customers. read more

Hands down great fun for families , couples or a group event. Staff is very friendly and helpful. The event is set up so well and very clean. I had an amazing time with my family doing this and would recommend it to anyone. It's a must go !!! read more

Great experience! It was challenging but with a little help we were able to escape within our timeframe. Highly recommend this hour of fun.

The Mayan Tomb is awesome experience for first time group. And it's so interactive and it draws you in! Plus we finally won so that's a great plus ! read more

Had a great time doing the Jewel Heist - this was our second time doing a room escape. The storyline and atmosphere was fun. The first time we didn't finish the escape since there was only two of us. This time we were grouped with another crew and it made the experience much much better and since we are competitive at heart finishing the challenge felt great. Big shout out to the veterans we were paired with - u guys rocked and it was nice meeting the four of you. As for the location. I called a few hours earlier spoke with a gentlemen that was very professional accommodating and just made us feel comfortable upon arrival. Definitely a great job on the locations part having quality employees with a great attitude always is a bonus. Hats off to this room escape and to the genuine host. Highly recommend. Will be back for another adventure in the near future. Go here you won't regret it read more

AWESOME! This is my 4th escape room, and it was the best thus far. We were a group of 6, half of whom had never done an escape room before. The puzzles were challenging enough for someone experienced with escape rooms, yet not impossible for someone trying out for the first time; we got out with 2 mins to spare. We did the Mayan Tomb and it was great. From the decor, to the cheesy acting in instructional videos, to the diversity of the puzzles themselves, everything was thoroughly entertaining and top notch. Can't wait to try their WW2 room next! read more

We escaped the Mayan Tomb and had a fantastic time! Last minute escape does an excellent job with the set up of the rooms. We've been to a number of escape rooms and last minute escape is by far the best! We completed the Mayan tomb tonight and just 2 nights ago escaped the jewel heist. We can't wait to try the other locations! Highly recommend it for adults and kids. read more

We had a blast! There were two of us and we did Mayan Tomb. I've done escape rooms before, but my friend hadn't and it was a success! We didn't beat it but we can't wait to go back! read more

We did the Mayan Tomb as a corporate team builder. Of the 9 people that attended, only two had done an escape room before. We had a blast trying to get out in time, however, we missed it by a few minutes. Regardless, every one really enjoyed it and the people who had done one before said this room was definitely a challenge. I highly recommend it! read more

We had a blast with our adult children and grandchildren. The staff was amazing and made our adventure that more fun.

My team at work decided we needed a different kind of team building exercise this year, so we went to the Mayan Tomb escape in Morristown. What a blast!! The puzzles were so much fun, all different kinds of things, and the space was big enough for all ten of us to be working on things without stepping on each other's toes. We made it out with plenty of time to spare, proof that we're good at working together, I guess! We were all on such a high when we finished, we immediately started taking about doing next year's outing in Wayne or Montclair, and I'm planning to bring my family back to the Morristown site over Christmas break! read more
