8 Room Escape Games in Pittsburgh That You Shouldn't Miss
Pittsburgh has been remade and reimagined. Think 24 miles of riverfront trails, beautiful parks and historic attractions. Home to 90 neighborhoods, the ‘Burgh feels authentic and unpretentious. No visit is complete without a trip to the Strip District or PNC Park, a ride up the Duquesne Incline or a stop at The Andy Warhol Museum. Architecture buffs love Pittsburgh for the amazing downtown buildings. Hollywood producers, do, too—the city has even been called the “Hollywood of the East."

There were five of us that took on the Dr. Stein’s Laboratory. We solved all the very clever puzzles that kept us thinking. I can’t tell you much about the puzzles other than we escaped with 50 seconds to spare! Located in an old building, another reason why Pittsburgh Escape Room is notable. Special thanks to the staff who were engaging and put on the extra special touches ala mad scientist.

In short, Liberty Magic is dedicated to elevating the art of magic. On the same block where Harry Houdini mesmerized Pittsburgh crowds in 1916, Liberty Magic is an intimate, speakeasy performance space dedicated to the art of sleight of hand and prestidigitation. With less than 70 seats in four rows, Liberty Magic offers a one-of-a-kind experience that is easy to access and hard to forget.
