We had and amazing time! It is located in the back of a building by miracle mile. You have to go up the stairs. They have several rooms, we were given the moderate room, meaning it was not crazy challenging to escape. Jennifer and Bruce provided the BEST customer service. They assisted us with every question we had. The room itself was moderate size. The employees will instruct you how the game works and what to do and not to do. You are given an hour to solve all the clues and find your way out of the room, so be ready to be mentally challenged. Amazing team building time!!!!!!!!!

I had a group of 10 friends book The Great Escape Room for my birthday. The room fits 12, and we had a couple also in the room working with us. Out of my group, I was the only one who had previously done an escape room... and this one just didn't have as much of a fulfilling or exciting experience. In The Great Escape Room, you are given instructions to find the pieces to the puzzles you have to solve, put them together, and then solve the puzzles to escape the room within the given hour. I don't want to give away too much about the puzzles, but what you experience in the room is a challenge to solve independent riddles that are in no way connected to each other. There really isn't a way to have cooperative team work when your group gets split up to solve puzzles that have nothing to do with each other. I would spent 15 minutes trying to solve puzzle A, try to switch over to puzzle B to help, but have absolutely no idea what their line of thinking was, and there would be no time for them to explain to me how they had progressed in the time that had passed. The workers stay in the room with you and will give you hints if you get stuck. Sometimes we would get stuck because the clues were physically broken or too worn from previous players ravaging the props. I do like puzzles, and it is very challenging... but there was just no cohesiveness or reasoning behind what you're doing to escape the room. I think the experience could have been more thoughtful in the creativity, instead of trying to solve random brain teasers. I was disappointed in my experience in this escape room, and it probably didn't help that I've been in better ones. I felt bad making my friends pay about $30 to get outsmarted in a locked room.

Ashly's sweet 16!

My daughter celebrated her sweet 16 with her friends here and it was a total success! It's been days and they are still posting and talking about how much fun they had. The staff is amazing and super friendly . Nelson is great and walked me through the process to book our spot.. If u like puzzles this is the place for u! This is fun for any age .highly recommended that u spend an hour of ur time here u won't be sorry . Can't wait for more rooms! Thank u for all your help in making my daughters 16 a memorable one. ~Lindsay

This is probably the most fun I've had in a while. I did the library. It was perfect. The puzzles are challenging and fun. Helpful hint, stay organized and work fast to get the clues. Try to solve the puzzle with a couple of people while others are looking for clues.

See all

We did the Sherlock's Study room, and it was challenging but attainable, and we did succeed in escaping.

Omg we went here for valentines and it was the best decision we could have made. I've always wanted…read moreto try one of these out. It was like $45 for an hour per person. Not bad. We picked the Simpsons theme and it was so cool. We literally were inside the show. They start with a video and you have to solve clues to move on to the next clue and unlock a secret door. It was so much fun and if you got stuck you could always ask for help. Unlimited clues. But we tried hard not to use them unless we were really stuck. Everyone had to work together and we escaped with 58 seconds to spare!! Definitely would go back and check out the other rooms . Except the zombie ‍ one. Think I would literally die of fear in there.

Oh, you like escape rooms? Cool. How about an escape room where you can't see anything? Because at…read moreTimebox Escape Room, darkness is apparently part of the "fun." Our group of five got one sad little flashlight to share, so most of the game felt like playing hide-and-seek in a blackout. The puzzles? Nonsense. The hints? Even worse. Our game master, Maria Hernandez, told us to check the "gray box" which would've been great advice if the entire room wasn't fifty shades of gray. By the time we reached a room with actual lighting, the clock was basically done. We reached out to William Santiago, the owner, who confidently said the room was "supposed to have no flashlights" offered a heroic 20% refund. So generous! If you're into paying top dollar to squint at walls and argue over what you think you saw, this is your spot. Otherwise, save your money and go literally anywhere else.

We really enjoyed some of the unique puzzles that are included in the games throughout this entire company. Cons: I will forever bring down a star because these are technically shared experience so if someone books the same time as you, you're stuck with a stranger and I despise that. And the fee to reserve the whole room is insane. There's a reason almost every other escape room doesn't have this anymore and it's much smarter. I would never book one of these rooms in advance because of the risk of getting stuck with someone. The other thing I didn't like was the one employee that was at the front desk. He was not very friendly and not helpful. All other staff members were fantastic. Gold rush: there were a few glitches in the room. There's a shooting part which is really hard because the things you need to shoot at are slightly to heavy for the "ammo" you're using making it insanely hard to get them to move properly. Also there was not anywhere near enough water in a different take to get it to work properly. However everything else was great. Timeliener: no negatives. I like everything about it. Overall I will always recommend this company and their rooms nationwide (as long as I'm never stuck with random people in a shared room).

Such a fun time. Went for a work team building. One room lead to another that lead to another. A…read morebit pricy per person but a good time!
