The best escape room we have ever been to! We played all three games. The props and story lines were creative and the sets were immersive. Like being in a video game in real life. The clues were good too. Didn't give away too much :) read more

The train escape room was amazing! My group of four had a fantastic time! If I'm ever on the Cape again, I'm going back!

Hand down the best highlight during our stay on the Cape. The whole family enjoyed it and the staff was great. Looking forward to returning every year! read more

The staff were friendly and informative. The experience was challenging and supportive if needed. The props made the experience authentic and fun. Great thing to do with your family on a cold winter night! read more

We did the pirate room on a Monday night at 6:30pm (last slot). The initial explanation was helpful and the set up was good. We were struggling a bit in the beginning, but we're able to escape thankfully. My one complaint and reasoning for four stars opposeed to five is because I felt as if they gave us too many unprompted hints. It was almost as if within a couple minutes of us trying something incorrectly, they'd tell us something that would put us on the right track, which in some cases, fine, but we ended up finishing with 20 minutes to spare and I think had they given us more time on our own to figure it out, we would have. So we kind of felt as if may e they just wanted us to hurry up so they could go home since we were the last time slot. read more

Great experience!!!! We truly enjoyed our time and the immersive experience of the escape room that we went through. The staff was so helpful and friendly. read more

Used to take my kids here all the time, my favorite employee Kaylie made it such an enjoyable experience, although we haven't seen her in a while. read more

Great time! So much fun to do as a family. Highly recommend the Pirate challenge as the kids loved it.

Upside Down Escape Room got me hooked! I went with some colleagues as a team building event and we all had a blast. The puzzles are challenging but we successfully solved it in the nick of time! I would highly recommend doing the pirate theme! read more

The folks at Upside Down are friendly, welcoming, and eager to provide a fun experience for their customers. My group played "Like, Totally the '80s to the Max" and found it to be a fun challenge. Details like an Atari system, a Cabbage Patch Kid, and an Etch-a-Sketch brought me back to my childhood. Without giving anything away, our biggest takeaway from the challenge was that it is OK to ask for help. read more

A decent experience during a rainy afternoon while on the cape. The facility is new, and seemed pretty clean. The furry pillows in the waiting room were...interesting. We did the pirate room. This wasn't the first escape room I've visited, but it was easier than others. The introduction to the game was given by one of the staff members while in the waiting room. She was distracted by another staff member a few time during her 2 minute intro. The entire scene was in one room, and it was fairly straightforward. We finished within 40 minutes. At the end, the staff took our photo while holding some themed props. In summary, an ok way to spend some indoor time, but not terribly challenging, and keep expectations modest. read more

Great fun! I'll be here again. Well managed and friendly staff. 1920s Paris is a tough challenge.

Visited this location recently (post Covid)and was very impressed with their castle/dragon themed room. Friendly staff. Appointment started on time. Room might have been slightly easy but the design was very well done. read more

I've been to many escape rooms. My wife and I love them. We were very excited to try this one. We brought two people who had never done this before - one 50th birthday and one Mother's Day celebration. We were just under 15 minutes late to arrive which was my mistake. I misunderstood the timing. I took the blame. We went into the room with a 45 minute limit and did not escape. No big deal until we realized that the room was not booked for the following time slot. I approached staff and asked why they did not allow us to finish the full hour since there was no one waiting to play. I was told that it is their policy to run the games back to back and they would not add time. I left with a bad taste in my mouth. Will I be back? Probably not. Could I have been convinced to come back? Maybe. How about "It is our policy to run the games back to back but we understand the confusion. Here is a pass for one free player in your next game." Or "We are sorry we couldn't add time. This is why (insert explanation here). Please come back to play again. We will try to make the timing clearer in our communication. Good luck. read more

Under new ownership. Many improvements have been made to the games since they took it over. I enjoyed their games a lot, if your in the area definitely worth checking out. read more

Let me start by saying that we've been to Riddle several times before (Pirates, Candy, 80's) and on this visit we tried The Secret of Dragon's Spire which is Riddle's newest room. Each time we've visited previously, the staff had been awesome and this time was no different. Our room was ready when we arrived and we jumped right in excited to experience the new effects in a Harry Potter / Dungeons and Dragons atmosphere. Annie was our game master and she did an incredible job from the very start, beckoning to me to turn the lights off after I had found the switch. Her first suggestion to us as our benevolent witch, sent shivers. "Do you really wish to ruin the ambiance of the dungeon?" I quickly flipped the switch off. Game on! Our family had a ball and will absolutely return with friends in tow! Book a visit, Say 'hi' to Annie and have a blast! read more

Dudes, this place is awesome! I've been here twice so far and it was great both times. First time we failed, second time we rocked the socks off that escape room! They have different levels of difficulty so there's a room for every skill level. So far we tried the pirate room and vampire room. We have 4 more to test out our wits on. I would highly recommend coming here! Also, the staff kicks butt and makes the experience truly enjoyable. They have fantastic personalities and are great be to be stuck in a room with for an hour. Every one should check this place out at least once. Epic adventures await you here. read more

Had a great time here with friends in a rainy night. We did the pirate room and had a blast. Our guide Liv was a big help and we solved the puzzle with 7 minutes to spare! Definitely one of the better escape rooms we've done. read more

Amazing experience! I completed the pirate escape room. The room was very difficult, but definitely very fun!

Amazing! We had a group of 4 which was perfect for the escape the 80's teenage girl's room. Great find for an evening activity when spending a weekend at the cape! read more

First experience in an escape room at Riddle and we'll definitely be back. The staff was very helpful, friendly, and fun. We happened to pick the hardest room and decided to go with it..our guide Jared was great, giving us clues just enough to keep us moving but still keeping it challenging. We didn't solve our room but can't wait to try another room or give Mission: Homeland another shot! Highly recommend Riddle..great addition to the Mashpee Commons! Thank you!! read more

Too hard! We had a big group that was split between Paris and Homecoming. We've done several escape rooms before, and escaped all of them. Both rooms were too hard -- most of the puzzles we solved were only after getting clues. The facility was good, and the staff was very nice, responsive, accommodating. read more

I can't say enough GREAT things about Riddle. I live in Mashpee & often look for fun things to do with a group of friends & this is the perfect outing. Riddle has 6 different themed escape rooms & each offers a different degree of difficulty. We have done three as of this post: Candy, Vampire, & 80's. We are working our way to the harder rooms: Pirates, Paris, & Homeland (the last two are supposed to be the most difficult....check Riddles website for escape rates per room). I like all of them for different reasons, but I recommend starting with the Candy themed room if you've never done this type of thing before. It's totally doable & completely lighted. Special thanks to our AWESOME game masters, Graham (80's) & Rob (Nosferatu Vampire). You guys ROCK & we can't wait to see you in a few weeks for the Pirate room & hopefully add to our collection of bracelets :) Don't forget to check in on Yelp for a free clue (you must mention this when you get there). Happy Riddling!! -Team Dumass read more

we did this as a whole family and we had a great time together. We had a blast!!!. our youngest at 10 all the way o our 18 year old got into the action to help us all solve the puzzles and get our of the room. Really well done. The staff was great and amazingly friendly and helpful. Would recommend to anyone who wants to spend an hour together just having a great time and laughing . read more

We had a great time solving the Pirate Room at Riddle Cape Cod! I've done puzzle rooms in other places, and Riddle was by far the best. They had many options for themes and levels of difficulty. The staff were super helpful and friendly both before and during the puzzle room. The puzzles were challenging yet straightforward. I'd recommend this to anyone visiting Mashpee. read more

it's me again, i went to the gingerbread escape room this time so i have done three escape rooms here total. my favorite is still the nocturnal keep but gingerbread was cute. i liked the cookie reward that you got when you finished. by far my favorite escape room place i've been to. #yummyyummy i miss taylor the car crash guy though... read more

Ok so I still had fun at riddle and I've been before and love escape rooms but our room wasn't set up properly and this is a major turn off for me. I did Paris and a crucial piece was missing which was frustrating as it prevented my group from getting out due to technical errors. Edit: I just did Nosferatu and it was really cool. There are some things that need to be fixed and tweaked but for the most part I enjoyed this room. read more

In town for the week and came to Riddle with my 12-year-old son - who is an escape the room addict - and his friend. Not only did we enjoy it, but we were impressed by the care taken by the staff and the owner to ensure our experience was excellent. Given the choice of games, the challenge, and the attentive service, we highly recommend Riddle, and we look forward to returning! read more

I love escape rooms and I was excited to try this out with my boys... And it was terrible. Save your $30 and go play hide and seek in your living room instead. read more

This was our first experience with an escape room and we had a great time. This is located in a cute new development with a bunch of stores. The kids had a great time and it was the perfect way to spend a rainy afternoon in cape cod. read more

It was our first time participating in an "escape" from anything and we were absolutely thrilled with our experience. The atmosphere was transportive. The staff was extremely friendly and, when we had successfully completed our mission, spent a considerable amount of time soliciting feedback and suggestions about our experience. Would HIGHLY recommend the Paris Adventure. read more

Took my 12 and 14 year olds last week during our week on the Cape after enough beach/sightseeing time. It was super fun - I'd done an escape room once with business colleagues so had an idea of what to expect but the kids had been wanting to for awhile so we jumped at the chance. We all really enjoyed it - the kids in particular were really challenged but it's fun to see their gears grinding trying to figure things out. Definitely needed the clues offered as a few parts were beyond what we could have figured out on our own but hey, that's what clues are for. The kids enjoyed it so much they wanted to go right back again the next day! Thanks to the staff for a great time! read more

We had an AMAZING experience at Riddle! Annie was our game master and she made the already totally tubular 80's room even more RAD! Lots of fun for all ages,really gets you thinking. I would definitely recommend! read more

Wonderful adventure..! My first time in a room and it was awesome! The staff we great and very helpful. Will come back to try another room soon! read more

What awful costumer service. We bought tickets to go on black Friday 2 hours before midnight only to find out they were 40% off the next day! Tried to reason with them on the phone but they were super rude and obnoxious about it. I understand that we just missed the deal, but there's a way to deal with it and a way not to. They also claimed that it couldn't be used on that day, even though nowhere did it say that and I was able to get to checkout for the same date/time as our appointment with the deal. The actual experience was OK if you like that sort of thing, but dealing with them just put such a sour taste in my mouth. Make sure you don't buy tickets online - get them right before you plan to go. No refunds and they will NOT work with you (trust me!). read more

Had a great time with my family. The rooms were challenging and fun!

Highly recommend! Our kids loved it. The game (pirates room) was great fun and the clues were tough but the hints from the game maker helped us get unstuck. All gave thumbs up. Also special shout out to Ashley, the manager, for helping us move our the date and accommodating more players. She is terrific. Thank you!!!!!!!!!! read more
