My monthly escape group had a wonderful experience at Seattle Escape Games!…read more The Room. We had a group of 6 that played through Cell Block 12. Awesome theme, great room decoration, and a solid mix of puzzles that were a nice spread of challenging. THOUGH! I will say, I recommend you take on this room with a group of people you know well/have done an escape room with before (so you know what behavior to expect). I can't imagine trying to do this room with strangers or people who shut down when frustrated. The Facility. I wasn't sure what to expect trucking all the way out to the Georgetown warehouse district, but I was pleasantly surprised! Its clear that having such a large building allows Seattle Escape to build big games with multiple rooms and lots of decor/detail. There is also plenty of space to park, which is a rare and beautiful thing in Seattle. THOUGH---I will say, if you are an out-of-towners/generally nervous about parking in odd places---I recommend booking a room during the day. This is definitely a warehouse district that might look sketchy to anxious individuals. The Staff. We had Maddie as our Game Master, and she was wonderful! She did a great job explaining everything, was patient with us in all the right moments, and was generally a lot of fun. I also LOVED that Seattle Escape had a system set up to digitally tip the game masters! Seattle Escape won a lot of points from me by having a system like this in place to support their staff. All in all, great experience, highly recommend, and my group will definitely be coming back to try out the other rooms soon!

We were looking for something to do on a rainy day in Seattle. We convinced the kids that an escape…read moreroom would be just the thing to do. Initially approaching this place feels eerie. There seems to be an abandoned building across the street that has some odd people hanging around. Be sure to lock your car! There is parking available so that part is nice. Once you're inside the environment is very cozy and friendly. Our game host check us in quickly and have us a locker to lock away our things. If you haven't played an escape room before, they recommend that phones/wallets and etc. Be placed in the locker. Make sure your most "responsible" adult has the key. As they will be the ones to hold it for the duration of the game. The escape room itself was creatively built and just the right amount of challenge. They have a variety of rooms that offer different and unique experiences. We were able to escape and then captured a nice little picture at the end. For the price and experience - this place is worth it.

We knew we had to try We decided to do the hardest room at Puzzle Break - Escape from Seattle, The World's Fair Affair We had a group of 6 with varying levels of experience with escape rooms (it was one of our friends first room while two of us have done more than 50 rooms) and the room felt perfect for the size! There were a lot of moving parts and lots to do in to this room so nobody was really standing around. We thought the room had a great balance between technology and analog. Puzzles were logical and hard in ways, but solvable and doable! We all had a really great time and got out with 16 minutes to spare! Communication/organization is key for this room Mason our game master was great and helpful! There was also a giant lounge to wait in for our game to start with tons of couches, games, puzzles, and water. A great escape room at a great venue! Would absolutely come again and would love to do Puppeteer's Workshop in the future

Big props to the Puzzle Break team for allowing us to keep our time as they encountered a same day issue where one of their rooms was damaged. They handled it very professionally and we were still able to keep our time slot so we're thankful to the team. We had 8 people and surprisingly, most of us had something to do the whole time. Everyone had a part to play but some parts we partnered up to accomplish faster. Easily a room you can do with 4-8 people with moderate difficulty, with the more people making it easier. Puzzles were fun, a few challenging ones, but overall pretty linear progression without weird redundancies that can happen with some other escape rooms. This room is great to bring friends who are new to escape rooms as there are still a few surprises (not in the scary sense). Thanks to Puzzle Break for a great time! I didn't book the room so I didn't get the name of the person my friend spoke to but during our experience Neo did the introduction prior to the game and guided us on time when we asked (we only asked for one hint so there was minimal interaction on that part). If this review encouraged you to try it, I hope you enjoy it!

I plan to return with my older kiddos as well - I know it may not entertain them as long as a place like he and air or jump park... but my kids enjoy the indoor play places at fast food restaurants and this is like that but much larger and it was very clean. They do have a small area that's restricted to 2 years and younger for those with tiny ones. I also purchased a punch card and that makes each visit very affordable and well priced (the normal price wasn't bad either - $15 for 90 minutes)! Plan to return for sure.

The play area is huge with so much for kids to do! There's a ball pit, ride ons, climbing structures and slides, giant building blocks, and tons of toys for pretend games. When we booked the party we were offered a bunch of different optional add-ons for additional charges including options for food, drinks, cupcakes, a meet and greet with a mascot character, etc. We chose to add an additional hour of time, the decorations package, and the balloon cannon. For decorations they have tons of themes to choose from and we chose Bluey. The decorations were so cute and there were pretty table clothes, themed plates and napkins, and lots of table decorations. The balloon cannon was fantastic! We played keepy-uppy like in the show Bluey, but the addition of the cannon just made the game so much more amazing! Our son and his friends had an incredible time and the adults all really appreciated that inside the play area are lots of comfy chairs and couches to lounge on while the kids play. Throughout the party the staff were so lovely and helpful! They checked in frequently to see if we needed anything and at the end even did all the tidying. We cannot recommend them enough, it was a perfect birthday party.

The studio was prepped very well for the celebration and everything was up to the mark and our satisfaction. The usp is that they close open play and you have the entire facility to yourself (unlike other indoor play areas) at a very competitive price. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who's looking to celebrate their kids birthday.

We had organized a kids' bday party and it was a wonderful, bright experience. One of the workers, Jenny B., hosted. She happily took the onus with the 9-10 y/o kiddos, patiently instructed them (we chose making bracelets as the project, but there are many projects from which to choose) and let them create freely from there! A much appreciated reprieve from all the digital interaction kids engage with these days. Both the parents and kids appreciated! It was refreshing to see them use their gifts and get the rest of their fingers working--other than just the thumbs. Thank you for making our child's bday a memorable one! See you soon!
