10 Room Escape Games in New Hampshire That You Shouldn't Miss
If you are looking for diversity, you will certainly find it in New Hampshire. From lakes to beaches, waterfalls to woods and mountains to sea coast, the state has huge potential for outdoor vacations, including downhill or cross-country skiing in winter. With no less than seventy-five state parks that offer natural areas, hiking trails, beaches and historic sites, New Hampshire caters for a variety of tastes. Crawford Notch State Park in Harts Location has picturesque waterfalls, wonderful mountain views and opportunities for viewing wildlife. You can go hiking and fishing there as well as pay a visit to the historic Willey House. Monadnock State Park, unlike some other state parks, is open all year round for hiking. Want to go swimming? You will find five state park beaches along the coast of New Hampshire, such as Wallis Sands with its view of the rocky Isles of Shoals. On North Hampton State Beach and Jenness Beach you can have a picnic as well as a swim. When you've finally had your fill of fresh air, head for the Museum of New Hampshire History in Concord with exhibits focusing on heritage and traditions; children should enjoy them just as much as adults.

I took my son and some of his friends to this place to celebrate his 12th birthday and we did the vintage circus room. It was a HUGE hit! They were able to accommodate 8 of us in a room and everyone had a blast figuring out the puzzles. We were even able to escape the room with 5mins to spare, but it wasn't easy! Definitely a great activity to do during this pandemic! Clean facilities and super friendly employees! Highly recommended!!!!

We have completed 3 of the rooms here (The Incident, Cuckoo's Nest & House in the Woods) and had a great time. The themes are very good. The puzzles look to be all made by the puzzle master here; and some are very unique. We have played over 10 rooms throughout New England and Dallas and although the "sets" at the nationwide Escape rooms are more elaborate, the puzzles are great here. Each room had a variety of puzzles that kept all of us on our toes. There are 4 of us that do this and we were all kept busy in these rooms. We will be back to do their newest room--Western Whistle. The monitors give us just the right nudge if we ask for one without giving too much away.

Monkey Mind was a lot of fun. My husband I have done 15-20 escape rooms over the last few years. I was impressed by the knowledge of the staff here on the evolution of escape rooms. We did both the Antidote and Mummy rooms because we were offered a discount for doing a second room and it was a blast. The two rooms were quite different, but totally enjoyable. The special effects were cool- in both rooms, there were moments where I jumped because of something happening that gave a little spook but nothing serious. Regarding COVID, they had plenty of protocols in place to ensure cleanliness and safety. Highly recommend!

I'm not exactly sure when I last visited, but it was pre-pandemic. I've been here many times and just about every time has been fantastic. The staff are really friendly and make the experience far more enjoyable than most escape rooms I've been to. The exquisite detail and ingenuity in each room makes for a fun time regardless if whether you win or lose. If you are a puzzle guru or new to escape rooms altogether, if you happen to be in North Conway, Mystery New Hampshire is a MUST.

Reviewed By Nordway125 - Roanoke, United States
By far the best experience we've had at any escape room we've done. We have done rooms from Orlando to Washington DC, Greensboro, NC, Roanoke, Va and now Manchester location. The room itself, theme The Agency, was a cool concept. We've never had to get another person in our party out of another room. The facility was clean, staff was amazing, knowledgeable, kind and was on point whenever we asked for a hint. We had two teenagers with us and they were entertained the whole hour. Well be back when we are in the area!
