You follow the signs to the second floor. There is a door and a check in area. The door lead to the control room. We waited outside until someone showed up. We signed a waiver they we waited down a hall to the escape room. There are two types of room available. The Spy's Safe house and the Dialed in. The spy's safe house is the easier of the two. According to the website, the safe house has a 84% success rate and the dialed in has a 33% success rate. Both rooms have the same rate, which is $25.00 a person. My friend booked the Dialed in room. I have never done a escape room so I cant really compare it to others. We were unable to complete the room within the time frame. It was still fun and I would like to do it again. However there are things they could work on. First is the room gets hot and I don't believe there is AC. The man running the room, told us to prop open the door if we got to warm. There is a fan blowing but you get 6 adults breathing heavy and it gets HOT. We were given directions on how to start but it was kind of like running around with your head chopped off. That might be the norm for escape rooms but I can understand why they have a low success rate. It seemed like the clues didn't follow a path to success. I know that's vague but I'm not going to give away anything and ruin your experience. If you miss one step you are doomed to fail. They do change the rooms up so its not always going to be the same. Right now they are doing a promo for the 'eclipse-themed' room. Which will run until August. You get a free pair of eclipse viewing glasses after your done. Its part of the normal rooms. After you are done, you can take a picture holding a funny sign saying you escaped or you failed. They uses the picture on there Facebook page. In closing they need to make it easier to find and make it easier to check in. Cool down the rooms.

This place offers at least one great escape room, and I'm eager to try the others. We booked them…read morefor a grownup birthday party. We provided the party room (the common room in an apartment complex) and they brought the puzzles, the props, the ambiance, and great show-runners. They totally transformed the common room into a magician's lair, with a nice story and a fun setup. The goal of the setup was to unlock six or so locks, which would allow the magician to escape the box of death. In order to unlock the six locks, we had to unravel about 20 puzzles, which I won't describe here because I don't want to spoil them. I appreciated, though, that the puzzles were all different kinds of puzzles, so everyone could find something they could contribute. The magician themed room was medium-hard. I am told they have some rooms that are easier and some rooms that are harder. We are looking forward to doing their more challenging room at some point in the future. I also appreciated that the people working the event stayed in character and provided a lot of good energy. We had about 20 people at the party, so they had to run the escape room two times. It took about 15 minutes between runs to reset the room. They packed up in half an hour and left the room in great shape. We couldn't be happier with this booking, and I am already fantasizing about booking them again for another room.

We loved that it was nonlinear and that we could all be working on different puzzles at the same time. I also really appreciated the health safety measures. The guy running the room (what do you call that position... the puzzle master?) noticed that we were wearing masks, and when he had to come into the room for something he wore one without being asked. It was very respectful and thoughtful. As a family that has to be health-cautious, that meant a lot to us. Anyway, everyone in our group had a wonderful time. We talked about it the rest of the evening, and the birthday kid who asked to do it said it was her favorite part of the day. It was a fabulous way to make memories as a family.

Krocbuster was a challenge! We definitely needed all our clues and hints and the host was helpful for those. It's a small room and was hard to divide and conquer. The whole group was always kind of focused on one thing and that held us up. With all the help we got, we were JUST shy of "escaping." We could have done it with two extra minutes.

Some of the puzzles just weren't very good/clear and each on had to be pretty much done in order, so unlike some other rooms I've been in, you couldn't have part of your group working on different things to solve too much at the same time and come together to put it all in play. The room is list for up to 10 and we had 9, so only three or four people could really be engaged in a puzzle all at one time-- I'd probably list it for 5 or 6 people since there aren't simultaneous things that can be worked on. There were problems with lighting not being well thought out that was needed to solve major things. My puzzle loving son agrees that the puzzles just weren't as engaging or clear. Some lettering was older or worn off on the mirror/book and not as clear. There were other major things, like the staff hadn't reset the room when they brought us in and didn't notice until we asked, and then they cleared us out to fix it. That was a bit of a let down from the beginning, to see some of the solved puzzles sitting there . We got there early/on time and they started us very late. Email questions prior to the appointment were not directly answered after two or three back and forths. It was just kind of less than the other escape rooms we've been to. I also paid for 10 people and 1 person was sick-- I didn't except to get refunded for that person as per their website rules, but it would have been a nice thing to make up for some of the more disappointing aspects.
