    What a great time!

    We decided to try the Paint Room instead this time and was not disappointed. Ryan was a wonderful DJ and host. He answered all of our questions, took great pictures and was super helpful. We all had so much fun interacting with each other, painting our pictures and slinging paint all over the place. Highly recommend!

    Back for another birthday party. We had 4 groups this year and I was in the yacht heist. This one was a little different because you are trying to steal as much money as possible instead of trying to break out. The puzzles were a lot of fun again. I love how all the rooms are so different and can't wait to try more.

    I have been to one escape room before, so was excited to try another one out at this Winston-Salem location for a friend's birthday. There were more limitations as far as group size allowance and different safety procedures due to the pandemic. However, I was fine with all that as it made me feel more comfortable doing an inside activity. The escape room we did was called the Enchanted Forrest and it was actually almost brand new at Total Escape. It had a total of three rooms with various puzzles to solve under the guidance of your digital fairy friend/helper. I was impressed with the level of difficulty of the puzzles, just hard enough to challenge us, but also obtainable in the time allotted. Total Escape was very creative in coming up with different types of puzzles/activities that fit the theme and they really did not waste any space in the rooms. There was something everyone could be working on at same time, until the end. We were a group of 7 people and escaped with 11 minutes to spare!

    My husband and I were looking for a fun Valentines date. We normally do the movies but this was some thing new and different. I chose our room based on the theme and not the difficulty level. We did not beat the enchanted garden but we had a lot of fun trying to. The woman who checked us in was very nice and explained things well. At the end she also showed us how we would've finished the room. Everything was very clean and organized. We will definitely come back in the future.

    We escaped, and they escaped, and one team got out of their room faster than the other.

    I have now done three of the four existing escape rooms at Total Escape and today was my first time doing an escape room in "interesting times". I love their puzzles, and more importantly these days, I also feel very confident in their cleaning the rooms between groups. Most recently I helped save the Enchanted Forest, and I also have escaped the Temple of Tikal. I particularly liked the loot element in Yacht Heist in which you had to clear a certain amount of $$ to escape, but if you had more time and found more gold, it was pure profit to you and your crew. The puzzles were diverse and complex enough to keep everyone involved and I've done rooms with adult groups and middle school groups. I hope they keep putting together new rooms because I've thoroughly enjoyed all I've done there and while I know eventually they'll cycle rooms out, I hope to get to do all of them.

    Had so much fun! The rooms are so immersive and interesting to solve! The staff were friendly and helpful!

    We had 9 family members visit us from four different states. Only three of us had ever tried an escape room. Two were hostile to the thought of being "locked in". My wife and I four our group to give "Yacht Heist" a try. We are so glad we did. The many puzzles spread through out three different rooms were largely solvable. We solved all but two and finished our hour just shy of the $1,000,000 goal. Everyone thought this event was great fun!

    Behold!! The ticking clock!

    My two granddaughters are visiting from Mississippi and I was looking for something fun to do. They…read morehave had experience with escape rooms before so we chose The Sanatarium. When I booked our reservation over the phone, I was told that there would be 7 other people, but that they group people all the time. We ended up with 11 in the group.....the 3 of us and 8 others all related. When we first entered the 'house', there was a very weird unpleasant smell which progressively got stronger the further into the house we got. The rooms were small and very crowded with 11 people. The other group basically took over everything.....did all the opening boxes, inputing codes, etc. We had a black-light flashlight, but they kept commandeering it. Finally in the last room, one of the guys said to give us back our flashlight. Between the smell, the heat (probably from having 11 people closed into such small spaces) and basically being excluded, we were really glad when the hour was over. I would not do it again. A real disappointment.

    I've been to Kersey Valley a couple of times before for the outdoor laser tag. Very fun stuff…read more After my brother's and I first experience with an escape room, we decided to try the one here. We chose to do the autopsy room and had a party of 4 adults and one teenager. The room was clean, yet set up as a vintage autopsy room. The background noises was befitting as well. Nothing scary, but the ambience was a bit creepy, lol. You have an hour to solve all the clues to obtain the final key to escape the room. We manage to do it with 10:09 left on the clock. Our game master, Al, was great! He gave us very clear and detail instructions on the room, and also gave clues per request. We only needed 3 of them. He also gave us a brief tour of the grounds on the way to the escape room and also let us in on KV's future escape room projects. I look forward to trying them all out!

    I have no idea what this kick ass escape room is doing in teeny-tiny Hudson, NC just off Hwy 321…read morebut I'm so glad they're there! We thought we knew good escape rooms having visited a few impressive ones (and a few not so impressive ones) in Charlotte, but Xscape's Curse of the Mummy room put them all to shame! My husband's family lives in Valdese, just 20 minutes or so from this escape room, and when we were looking for something fun to do with his sister for her birthday, we decided to book at Xscape. They only have the one room right now but are working hard to open a second (involving diffusing a bomb, I'm told) in the coming months. The Curse of the Mummy room incorporates amazing props, immersive "scenery," and incredible technology. Seriously, it's the best room we've ever experienced, hands down. I don't want to give away too much, but will tell you that I'm still emptying sand out of my shoes a couple hours after escaping with just a few minutes to spare. ;)
