TL;DR- A fantastic owner, a great location, and some rooms that really show off potential for…read morestorytelling and tech integration. All at a price point that won't leave you scratching your head. My wife and I came here to wrap up our anniversary escape room tour and absolutely had a great time. We were immediately welcomed by the owner who struck up conversation about how they just opened recently, what they're working on, and some of the neat little features that they're implementing as part of the Escape Room Passport program that a lot of other New England escape rooms are starting to do recently. Super enjoyable and warm to talk to, like most owners in the escape room community seem to be. The prices are right on par with others in New England at $25 a head, though I did LOVE the option for a little more (+$5\person) to make the room private. That's a feature that not many others offer, and gives great flexibility to people wanting to give these types of games a try in a more private atmosphere, without worrying if you'll be grouped up with strangers in the room. The room itself was really fun. Clues were clear, and flowed into each other nicely. There weren't red herrings typical of big box or amateurish rooms that artificially inflate escape rates for bragging rights, and the non clue props were a nice touch, though a bit misleading in some spots. The production quality was right about what we expected for a newer business fresh into the field. Lower quality printouts and some hard to read handwriting had us scratching our heads in some places, but we escaped the room, and had a blast doing it. Overall this place has so much promise, and if you're in the Wakefield\Naraggansett area looking for a fun activity that isn't tough on the wallet, this place is a super fun tucked away spot to have a great time!

Really enjoyed the "La Cosa Nostra" room! My husband and I were looking to do a daytime date and…read morethis was a perfect indoor activity. It was definitely tough but so much fun and satisfying cracking the codes / clues. The "set" was very well done with an actual car in the room and a mural backdrop of a street. Everything was well utilized and locks weren't sticky. Super creative in the different ways the codes/keys were hidden too. The guy running it was friendly and helps you out with clues if you're in need of them, which you pace out. We probably should've gotten more clues sooner since we didn't escape the room. We probably got to about 60% of them (had a whole room we didn't get around to unlocking), which we were warned it is tough for 2 people, but we were up for the challenge. What I really like about this place is the discounts to return (half off I think to do the same room). What a great idea to get repeat customers. They also have another deal to buy discount passes only right after you finish a game.

We had a great time here! I came with 4 other friends who all love escape rooms. The puzzles were…read morevery straightforward, interactive, and engaging.

This place is absolutely AMAZING!!! First I have to say, do not listen to any reviews from…read morebeginners. You have the option to get help and there shouldn't be any reason you don't get through before the hour ends, so the low reviews from that are bull crap. That being said, as a long time escape roomer, this place is top notch. The decor is awesome, the clues are well thought out, and like I said, you can get help anytime you want. It's only as difficult as YOU make it. I've done both the Aftermath and Temple of Laughing God. Both were so much fun! You seriously have to give this place try. You can tell they put a lot of thought and love into it all. Don't miss out!

Went with a group of friends this past Saturday. I will say it as fun and that none of us had done…read morean escape room before. The game god (or whatever he was called) was very nice and helpful! So my critique is not with him! The critique is with the fact that this beginner room was very difficult. I mean maybe they are all this hard, I wouldn't know. But our one hour ran out and we still had the challenge we were working on and three others left. When the game god came in and said time was up, we chatted for a bit and asked what the success rate for this particular room was. He said it was 17%. We thought that was a bit ridiculous for a beginner room. But again, maybe all places are like that. So if you don't mind losing, lol, then yeah, definitely check it out!

His enthusiasm and wit were perfect for when we needed a hint to make it to the next section. He was kind and personable and never made us feel stupid, which I think is pretty important. Overall a great escape experience and I would highly recommend it. Tell them John sent you and Ask for Andy!!

Escape RI is really an adventure for those who take part of it.... The staff sends you into a themed, immersive game space filled with puzzles, and you have to solve them all in order to "escape" within the hour. Now after the pandemic, all games are private, so you only go in with people you know. The are several room and several types of experiences! While you play, the venue is being constantly monitored by a trained Game Operator, and an emergency exit is always available in case of discomfort or actual emergency. You are never locked in a room. The lights may get dim at some points, but there's no (intentionally) spooky music or sounds, no frightening pictures, and certainly no one is going to jump out at you. All surfaces are sanitized regularly by the staff. The base price to rent one of the rooms is $79 which includes two admission tickets, which is also the minimum number of players needed to play our games. Each additional ticket is an additional $29 per person. Each room has individual capacity limits. The smallest game room can hold up to 4 players, two of the game rooms can hold up to 6 players each, and the largest game can hold up to 10. Our group needed some help in some of the rooms with the puzzles and clues, so you can ask for help and the operator will help you with hints. At the end of the game, we did not Escape, but it was a fun experience about teamwork, leadership, puzzle solving, and much more.... LOL...

I left feeling profoundly entertained and with a great level of brain fever. I'm still telling friends about it weeks later. It's 100% worth the trip from Boston. You wont regret it!
