    This is only my second time experiencing an escape room and first time at The Escapery . First, check Groupon before you go because they might have an awesome deal for you and your friends. This location was much larger than the one I went to ITP, the business space and escape room. There's a few couches in the waiting area so you have a place to sit while you wait for your groups turn or friends to arrive. Only thing I didn't notice at Escapery was lockers, so we had to take our purses and jackets into the room with us. This location is opened Thursday - Sunday and you can book private events on Monday- Wednesday and during off hours. It's the perfect spot for team building or a party. Room: The escapery currently has 4 rooms and I believe they have a 5th room coming soon. Our group decided to choose Silo, 4/5 difficulty. It's a military themed adventure and not a game of horror which was perfect for me. It's a game of deduction and problem solving and every clue is important. It's important to work as a team and communicate with each other. Tip: If your group includes a child under the age of 12, you must book a Private Game. Service was outstanding and our host/ game master had a great personality and provided some assistance while we were in the puzzle room from time to time, we also had the option to call 3 times in the 60 minutes for help. Although we didn't complete our mission, we had loads of fun and laughs. I will definitely be back to try another room.

    Celebrating at The Escapery!

    What a fun time! My family and I all came here to try our first escape room experience, and thoroughly enjoyed our visit! The 6 of us made a private reservation and had the entire room to ourselves. We chose the Ripper room, and while we didn't make it out in time, we all really enjoyed it! (And we were able to guess the killer!) Jacob was a really great host, and would look forward to coming back for a second try!

    Outside at night. Look for the glowing red wheel cog.

    The Escapery opened February 12, 2016 in north Marietta. It's one of the latest escape room game companies to open in metro Atlanta. Like several of these escape room businesses, The Escapery is located inside a nondescript office park. It's in the same office park as CrossFit Kennesaw. Just keep driving around the buildings until you find Suite 235. It's the one with the glowing red gear inside the storefront window. Our team of escape room enthusiasts (Team Bad Math) took on The Escapery for the first time on April 26, 2016. I say "first time" because we plan to return later this year and try their second room after it opens. Only one room is open right now - it's called Destiny. Destiny is set in the year 1952 and your team's objective is to recover the Spear of Destiny, a coveted artifact. It's obvious elements of Destiny were inspired by the Indiana Jones movies. We were told by Mark, the owner, that they plan to open their second room, called Silo, in August. Silo is a Cold War-themed room. This is a family-owned business and I believe this is the only location. It's not a chain like Amazing Escape Room (Sandy Springs) or Breakout (Peachtree Corners, Buckhead) for example. If I recall correctly, Mark and his wife Haley are the owners and they built this place from the ground up. Mark quit his job as a civil engineer to enter the escape room business and he's the game designer. If you've never done an escape room before, here's the jist: You and your friends pay to be locked in a room filled with clues. Working against the clock (timers are typically set to 60 minutes), your group must follow the trail of clues, solving riddles and puzzles along the way, to find the key to unlock the door and escape the room. I think it's a lot of fun because you're put into a real-life, dramatic, movie-like situation. To get a good idea of what it's like, just watch this hilarious video of Conan O'Brien trying to solve an escape room: https://youtu.be/3LMtRG4Mc54. Many escape room companies have opened in metro Atlanta over the last few years. At the time of writing this review, I've played 21 different rooms at 11 different locations (9 different businesses) throughout the Atlanta area. The businesses include Room Escape Atlanta (Tucker and Edgewood), Mystery Room (Sugarloaf Mills), Paranoia Quest (Downtown), Mission: Escape (Loring Heights), Amazing Escape Room (Sandy Springs), Escape the Room (Downtown), Breakout (Peachtree Corners and Buckhead), Ultimate Escape Game (Galleria 75), and The Escapery (Marietta). I've reviewed all of them, so if you're curious about each one, you can check out my list on Yelp here: https://www.yelp.com/list/atlanta-escape-room-games-atlanta. The list is generally sorted from my most favorite escape room company to my least favorite, but let me be clear - I think all of them, except for perhaps Mystery Room, are a blast. The Escapery has a 1940s/1950s theme going on. At least, that's what it feels like to me. The vintage radio in the lobby and the art deco-style graphics designed for each room remind me of the video game series BioShock. Overall, this business is well crafted with a fine attention to detail. It looks great. I like that the lobby is nice and bright, perfect for team photos, which is essential for any escape room business. Some escape room companies' photo areas are too dark. I noticed the room we played, Destiny, has an elaborate storyline. It may have the most elaborate setup and story of any room I've played up to this point. I could tell Mark really put a lot of thought into it. He even came up with reasons, that fit into the story, for why we could only ask for three hints during the game. (Normally, most escape room companies will allow you to radio or ask aloud for up to three hints, but it's just part of the game rules, not a part of the story.) Like other escape room companies, there are cameras inside the game room so the staff can monitor your progress and give you hints when needed. They can hear you too. Unlike other escape room companies, you are not really locked in the room. The staff have left the room unlocked in case you need to take a potty break. In Destiny, your objective is not to escape the room anyway. It's to recover the Spear of Destiny from an archeologist's office. Also, other rooms I've played have a monitor with the timer on the wall. Here, you're given a stopwatch which someone on the team must hold onto and keep track of. All in all, we really enjoyed Destiny. There was one malfunction, but it did not deter from our overall enjoyment with the room. We beat it with a time of 41:12 which was the second best time. We played the room with a group of seven, the maximum number allowed. The Escapery charges $28 per person per room + Cobb County sales tax. This price is comparable to other escape rooms around town. We found a deal on Groupon (https://www.groupon.com/deals/the-escapery) so it cost us only $17.86 per person. We'll be back.

This venue is in the perimeter area near target and the forum. There is street and garage parking available for free. There is a separate entrance from the forum. When we arrived we were offered beer and wine. Then the game hosts came and introduced themselves and provided instructions. They divided us into two teams and had us select our nicknames and team name. Then we headed into the game room. We played several different games like wheel of fortune, family feud, and price is right. We had so much fun. After the games we returned into the first room and had food. I definitely recommend for team and friend outings.

My company had a team bonding event at Sipping Plant so I was able to check it out at the newest location in Kennesaw. Before starting, everyone should arrive early to sign a waiver and show ID.

Once everyone gets their bowl(s), we all sit with our groups for further instructions. Depending on the size of our bowls, we are instructed how to fill gravel and soil. Afterwards, we choose plants. We could choose 1 large and 1 small or 3 small. I chose 3 small. Further instruction is given when we decide on which plants want. Then we're off to making our bowl(s) as creative as we want.
