Enjoyed the Pirate themed room immensely. A trio of us visited Rush Hour and we rushed!! There were a number of locks, but the locks explanation prior to game was perfectly executed making it more effective and efficient in the game play. One of the things I liked about the room was the simplicity coupled with attention to detail of the theme. Finally, this room rated so high for us due to having a game element we haven't come across in an escape room yet and we've done over 100 escape room. Well done!!! read more

Had a blast here with the family a few weeks/ a month ago. We did the Christmas Themed room. It was easy enough for my 10 year old but still challenging enough for the adults. Only reason for the 4 stars was some of our "toys" were broken/pieces missing making the task harder and sorta breaking the magic of it all. Still a great set up and better than some of the other rooms I've been to. read more

Very cool. Our first time there and we picked the second hardest one. Got out with 46 seconds to spare. Very exciting. We escaped wonderland. I don't know what they normally charged for this kind of game, but I thought it was a bit pricey. 4 peeps were $128, but what are going to remember, the cost or the fun. read more

This place rocks...complex, well developed Escape Rooms. Professional, friendly game-masters. Our group had a lot of fun! This is our second time here and we can't wait to come back to play in some different rooms. They are also developing a venue next door called the Game Show where you can play all the as seen on tv classics. We are eager to see what this is all about. thegameshowvirginia.com (website under construction so more to follow) read more

My daughter and her friends seemed to have a good time. Great for birthdays and special events!

What a fun time with our group. We did the Alice in Wonderland and the other group did the Murder in Mardi Gras. We all had a great time. Whew you really have to be in your toes looking for clues. The rooms we're beautiful and set up great. There are clues all around you and when you have a timer clicking away it makes you really makes you work as a team. I would say it's fun and I will do it again if I get the chance again. Not sure who comes up with the ideas but wow they do a great job. Unfortunately you can't post pictures but I can post a few of the waiting area and all. They don't want you to post anything to give away any clues snd such. I do have to say stay focused, talk with each other and just really look around for you will find the clues. So go give it a try and have fun! The staff was great and Meghan was awesome with explaining how the game goes. The area all around from the front of the store to the bathrooms to the actual rooms we're clean. read more

Rush Hour is a really good escape room. It is located in a mall. They operate a couple different games at any one time. We were doing a limited run Christmas game "Dashing Through my Dreams." As with any escape room reviews, you do not want to give too many details. The facility is nice and new and the staff is very friendly. The games are challenging and well-designed. It is definitely worth a visit. read more

This place was so fun. I went for a work team building event and we did Blackbeard's Brig. It was my first escape room, but a couple of the people I went with were pros, so we made it out with time to spare. A lot of locks to figure out. The props and settings were better than I expected from some of the photos I've seen online (but then again, you're not allowed to take photos bc that gives it away). Very cute and very fun. I'll definitely be back! read more

Great Birthday Party Location: My girls and their friends had a great time for their 13th birthday party at Rush Hour Live Escape Games, the party room was great and they allowed us to bring in pizza, sodas, and cake for the after the game party. Thanks to all their at Rush Hour Live Escape Games. read more

We have been to a variety of escape rooms throughout the country and this one is by far the best one we've been to. The games are so well thought out, the facility is clean and the staff members are great! We've come with adults and our kids- and we had a great time in each room. Very highly recommended!! read more

Absolutely the best escape room venue we have ever been to. Highly professional and friendly staff, exceptionally well detailed and fun rooms in a very clean and hospitable environment. Looking forward to our next opportunity! read more

My daughter wanted to do something different for her 11th Birthday and decided on Rush Hour. We called and customer service on the phone was great. We set it up for Sunday with some friends. We had 2 parents go into the room to help her and her friends with the clues. They had a great time. Rooms are nice and overall interior is inviting. Met the owner Paul and he's great. Has plans to expands and become involved next community. They have space for team building or birthday parties. Great location outside of mall. read more

Great time. Challenging but in a fun way. Allows different skill sets to contribute to the game so everyone is involved. Didn't think it'd be something I'd be into but was pleasantly surprised. Did this as a team building event for work but thinking of bringing the family. read more

I went with a friend for her birthday and had a great time solving the room. The woman working behind the scenes was very helpful. We enjoyed the costumes and storyline. My major complaint is with the customer service. The shift leader was extremely rude to us as we were leaving. He went so far as to tell us we were in the easiest room, because we were proud of our time. This is just an example of what was said. The staff overall did not seem very friendly and some even encouraged his rudeness. read more

So I need to be a family of four to do the rooms, don't care if we are a family of 3 because we have to pay for 4 to book. But wont get reimbursed for that 4th person. Then told well since there's 3 of you you need to just come in and see what's available, been there 2 times and was told sorry we are booked. So please explain to me how a family that is less than 4 is able to do a room. I'm beyond angry because my child is crying and has been wanting to do this and yet you are against family's less than 4. But hey go ahead and pay for 4 people to book a room. But you won't get to use that credit for another time. What kind of disrespectful bs is that? Shame on you! read more

A great experience with friends and family! I came to Rush Hour to celebrate my father's birthday as well as mine on Memorial Day Weekend. We brought the whole family and had a blast! The puzzles were challenging, but solvable. Our game master was very interactive and made it a fun experience. I would highly recommend this experience to anyone (and have!) I love that they swap out the rooms every month so there is always a new experience to look forward to. It can be tricky to find, so if you get confused, give them a call and they're very helpful! read more

The experience itself was fun and we really had a great time until the end when we were leaving. George, the shift leader at the front desk, is a complete dick. He was so beyond rude and such an asshole, it ruined the experience. It was so out of the blue and uncalled for, we were genuinely shocked. I have never been so disrespected in a public place in my entire life. read more

I went here for my first ever escape room with four other people and it was a blast! The room that I went through stumped us at times but it was one of the "easier" rooms that they have, so the harder rooms and even the easier ones are sure to challenge any group! The recommended number of players is crucial because this would be very difficult to do with three people or less. read more

Loved it. Had a great time. There were even puppies. Our game host helped us when we got stuck which I didn't know was going to happen but was so glad when it did!! It was the perfect thing to do with family in town on a cold and rainy dreary day. The staff is really upbeat and fun. Only drawback is it really costs as much as a pretty good dinner out - a little on the pricey side. Would be good if there was a coupon or discount for a large group. Also they should serve drinks. That would be a bonus! :) read more

This is our very favorite escape room! We have gone to four different places in three different cities, this one wins and it's not close! Costumes? Yes, please! George, our game director, was fabulous. Engaging, funny, and completely endearing. Three generations for this game and we all had a great time. Also, extremely clean and well-maintained. Now, if that would just add that tequila to the pirate room! read more

It was ok I had fun with my friends. The customer service was ok. I haven't done a escape room before. I would come again with more people. I didn't have a big group with me. read more

We had a good time. However we did get behind on the game, but the person running the game (behind the scenes) did not tell us we were behind until 8 min before the hour was up. Everyone was very friendly. read more

My friends and I escaped from one of these rooms this weekend, and I'm so glad that we did. We tried the Tomb of the Red Queen, which we were told was one of the more difficult rooms (and is usually recommended for groups of 6-8... we had 4, gulp!). But we were able to break out with time to spare (we even made it onto the leaderboard!) and had an AWESOME time solving all of the puzzles in the room. The theming was on point, and I really loved how they give you props and take your group's picture after you're done. We'll definitely be coming back to try out another room soon! read more

I went with a group of 5 this past weekend. This was only my 2nd time doing an escape room, but first at Rush Hour, so I was excited! The majority of my experience was great. Sara, our game master did a fantastic job explaining the game, was helpful if we needed hints, and shared in our excitement when we were able to break out with 23 minutes remaining. She ushered us over to an area where we could check out the leaderboard to see how we measured up with other groups and then left to go to another group. I noticed that the time of 45.. min was incorrectly posted on the leaderboard so I went over to the front desk and asked the shift leader, George if there was a way to correct our time since the totals didn't add up with us getting out with 23 minutes remaining. He did and we were excited to see that our correct time put us in first place. What was odd and soon very uncomfortable was that George proceeded to make rude comments and poke fun at my reaction and then made even more rude comments to my group as a whole. I don't understand what happened or what caused him to be so rude, however it was very obvious and very blunt what he was doing. While I believe that the set up of the business and the escape room itself was wonderful, the fact that a shift leader thinks it is ok to publically disrespect a paying adult lets me know there is much more to be desired with the customer service at Rush Hour. read more

Such a good experience every time. Grab your friends or family and go experience this high end escape room location.

I have been to this Rush Hour escape room several times in the past year. Each time on a weekend. I had purchased 2 certificates on the Thunder 50/50 deal where a certificate from Rush Hour was mailed to me. I had set up an appt to go Thursday during the hurricane rain and arrived for our appt to find out that the certificate had expired. These are Rush Hours certificates that they then hand write a gift code on it as well as admits 4 Sun-Thur but no where on it does it have an expiration date. The owner Paul was extremely rude. He said it was on the fine print of the radio website. I explained to him that he should have it on his certificate but that didn't matter to him. Now keeping in mind we are all soaking wet, its a Thursday evening with no one in the store and I offered to pay for 2 and use 1 certificate for 4 and he said no its expired. He said I will charge you for 4 and let 2 in if you give me both certificates. I told him that wasn't a deal because I paid more than that with the radio station. These were his certificates not the radio station so he had complete control to put the date on it. The worst customer service I have ever experienced. I will NEVER return to this place and will make sure that anyone I know hears this nightmare. He talked down to me like I was an idiot. All I wanted was a night out with my kids and their spouses. If I had any idea that the certificates had expired I would have agreed, however, it was clear that no date was on what I received. Paul did not take any responsibility to the mishap and as a business owner should not be dealing with people. My 1st visit here was through a chamber open house and never thought they would treat their customers so poorly. Needless to say I didn't stay and will never go back. read more

We had a great time as a family. The place was very clean and nice inside. Staff were very friendly and super nice. The game rooms really made you feel like you were in the game. The game we played was organized very well. We had a great game master. He kept us on pace, but was not intrusive in the game at all. There was plenty to do for 4 or more people in the game. The costumes provided added fun. This was well worth it. We really enjoyed it and can't wait to go back to try another game. read more

Rush Hour is a first class place. From the moment you walk in, you can see quality in everything from the environment to the friendly service. We did a challenging room with a small group from work. There was a video briefing beforehand and the manager gave us a full run down of everything we needed to know to enjoy the room. I would absolutely recommend Rush Hour to friends and colleagues. I'm going to get some friends together and go back for another adventure soon. read more

My boyfriend and I decided while walking by after dinner that we could go for an impromptu escape room adventure, went in and asked if there were any rooms available for 2 to solve, and there were! We chose the "Lucky Duck Speakeasy" room. The staff was friendly and accommodating, they let us dress up, which was awesome! We solved the room (meant for 4 people) with ~3 minutes to spare (we used quite a few hints though, very prompt and concise, always helpful). It was fun, challenging and a great price, a wonderful conclusion to our evening. We will definitely be returning with many friends soon! read more

SO well done!! We did the mystery in the woods room and it was very challenging. Our game master was so awesome and explained things in the room afterwards. He made our experience so fun and interactive. This is one of the nicest facilities I've ever been too for escape rooms. A ++!!!! read more

We visited Rush Hour for my friend's birthday and had a blast! We chose the 20s themed room and everything was spot on. They explained everything very well ahead of time and helped with clues when we would get stuck. The props, clues, and rooms were so fun to figure out. We will definitely be coming back. read more

We had a great time here with our large group and went thru three of the escape rooms before our staff meeting. This was a wonderful tema-building experience and everyone commented on how much fun it was to work together to solve the clues. Thank you for a great experience! read more

My daughter celebrated her 10th birthday there with a group of friends. It was fantastic! The party room was perfect for pizza and cake and as it was free (the party room) it was a perfect price. The best part of the day was "James the Pirate" who accompanied the girls into the room. He was fantastic with them and really added to the experience! She is already talking about having her birthday there again next year. read more

I highly recommend Rush Hour escape rooms!!! I've done three other escape rooms and this one was the most fun. They start you off with costumes and props ... how fun! The gal we had guiding us through the mystery via monitor was great. She'd give us sassy comments on how poor we were doing or how well - made us LOL!!! This escape isn't as "serious" as others ... definitely a hoot!!!! read more
