    Solved the room with 30 seconds to spare
    Zuzana K.

    Four of us did the Hour before Christmas escape room and solved it with 30 seconds to spare. Cheyenne kept an eye on us and provided excellent pieces of information when requested. She also gently chimed in when we were spending too much time on something for which we did not yet have all the clues. At the end she told us about the other rooms and offered to take our photo. We had great fun and would definitely come back to check out the other rooms.

    Out of the past was a blast! Our team of 4 went through several well thought out clues and with the support of Taymahn...we made it back to our time! Definitely recommend this venue.

    Can we get out

    My first impression was, this is crazy. Who thought of this?!!! You quickly realize who are the brains in the bunch. It's like be immersed in a living puzzle and an endless maze of clues and riddles. Everything in the room has purpose and meaning which means you have to pay attention to everything. You can work alone. It's important you work together and communicate. Memory does come into play but they supply a pad for you to take notes. On every wall there are object that essentially are puzzles to solve. We didn't successfully complete the rooms. We did our very best, but we will be back. This is an amazing place. Jasmine was our game master and she was awesome. Please do yourself a favor and stop by and give the escape room a shot.

    Escape rooms are great fun for a group. paradigmQ was quite the drive from where I live in Beaverton but had to try when they had the fright before Christmas themed room. From the outside, the shop doesn't stand out too much, but once you go in, it's a very clean and spacious lobby with a very cool and large logo with an illuminated background. It makes you feel like you've entered a mysterious space. They have you sign in and do a waiver and also promotes safe precautions. They had us wash our hands before starting and ensured us that the room was cleaned prior to us entering. You get an hour to do the room and it was nicely decorated for the theme. I will say it was a simpler room than other ones we've done. It's a small, maybe 30' x 15' space with fairly straightforward puzzles. If you're looking for a more casual experience that'll still get you thinking, I would recommend doing this room with ~4 people. There was one puzzle (ornaments) that we weren't quite fond of, not because of difficult, but the design. I'll leave it at that as not to spoil anything :).

    My husband wanted to book an escape room as a team building exercise for his employees. There were 5 of us in the Sasquatch room. The room was great. Lots of locks and we thought it was quite challenging trying to figure out what clues went to what locks. There was a main room and then a small "outside" room that had to be unlocked. We all had a great time! Our game master Peter was awesome! He was so friendly and helpful. He provided nudges when we were way off track and gave great hints when we asked for them. We did not escape the room in our hour time limit! We were on the last puzzle and would have escaped with an additional 2-5 minutes. We are definitely planning to return and try additional rooms. So fun!

    We played the Nightmare before Christmas parody. It is a single room game. The decor is good. There are a lot of puzzles in this game. The story is cute, but the puzzles don't really connect with the story organically. It's more geared toward puzzle lovers than immersive enthusiasts. I love that it merged Halloween & Christmas!!!

    This was our first time attempting an escape room. We did the Sasquatch experience. It was so much fun and our game master John was awesome.

    Hard room!

    If you haven't read my reviews you have to know I LOVE escape rooms! I have done three escape rooms with ParadigmQ, a sister location to Escape Games PDX! It is located less than 10 minutes away from where I live, so the convenience is there. Their location is spot on and smart as they are right off of Mill Plain and next to a popular Mexican restaurant - so grab some food and margaritas (that is what half our team did!). Everything is brand new once you enter. Open waiting area, friendly staff and we love their introductions prior to when you enter a room. I have had Bex and Natalie be our room masters. All have been great! If I had to rate them based on difficulty here is what I think, this is strictly based on my opinion - obvi! 1) Out of the Past 2) Into the Future 3) The Hour Before Christmas I'm so happy there is another escape room in the great Vancouver area, they are creating a couple of more escape rooms in the next couple of months, so be sure to know that I'll be there once they open! I can't wait to do another!

    our game group!

    Shalece & Taymahn did a great job keeping the game moving along. Sasquatch was fun, challenging, and aesthetically pleasing.

    After seven years of attending classes and exercise activities we have found that we like this…read morebetter than some of the other exercise clubs we've tried. They have really great hours. The bathrooms are always clean and once you figure out what is the best time for you to attend, you can get in an easy groove and attend on a regular basis without any hassle there's plenty of room to do whatever you wanna do here lots of space and lots of options. The pool is exceptional. The hot tub is great. The exercise areas are amazing and the indoor walking trail is really amazing in the winter if you want to stretch out and stay dry, we use it all year because my husband is blind and it's the safest place for him to walk. We really appreciate all the amenities here they are very handicap friendly and the staff is exceptional. We love coming here

    I had never been in this building even though we often are at the library next door. My son and…read morefiance have told me many times how nice it is inside the facility and specifically my son has said how badly he wants to try the waterslide. My fiance and I had a few minutes to spare today so we decided to drop in so she could show me the facilities and we could talk with someone about a membership. As we are walking down a hall (within the first 5 minutes of getting there) in mid-conversation this older man begins following us and recording us. I don't mean to stereotype but it is what it is, this man was filthy, looked like he hadn't showered or changed his clothes, you get the idea. He tells us that we look like people who stole from there yesterday. My fiance told the front desk and they basically said the following: He recently had his cell phone stolen, so thats why hes suspicous of us. (The one he used to film us with I presume?) And basically we just need to deal with it... I never do reviews and really try to avoid leaving negative ones. But not only did this homeless older man follow us with a camera in our face just for entering the building...the worst part is the staff basically profiled/stereotyped us and told us to deal with it. My fiance said it best, "how could we have avoided that? Just for entering the building we are subject to that?" I definitely don't feel comfortable allowing my child to be there in a bathing suit. God forbid he "fits the description" or something and has to deal with the harassment from guests followed by a shrug of the shoulders from management. If you have a son or daughter who goes here regularly I would just like to say BE CAREFUL and PAY ATTENTION to who may be watching or FILMING YOUR KID!
