We have been to this escape room several times now and it does not disappoint. Spybot and Yellow Brick Road were both spectacularly done and very innovative in comparison to dozens of other escape rooms we have done. Would recommend Yellow Brick Road to all audiences and first time Escapees as it is a little bit easier than others. No shortage of fun with iSpy Escape Games.

We were very surprised to enjoy this place so much as some of the science equipment would need some repairs and upgrades but there is so much to do that we spent more than 2 hours to do everything. They even have science shows and you have a bonus of learning about a jail that was in used for more than a hundred year. I would go back again if I lived closer.
5. Legislative Assembly Building

When we found we were passing Fredericton we decided to tour the New Brunswick Legislative Assembly Building. The building was built in the 1880s to impress the public with the status of the Province of New Brunswick. Our tour guide, Corben, did an excellent job of explaining the art and rooms of the building, all spiced with amusing associated anecdotes as well as the governmental forms and political parties of New Brunswick. I recommend this tour for anyone interested in New Brunswick history and government. As well as Americans curious about the Canadian government system.
