Things to do in Kentucky, United States: The Best Room Escape Games

November 23, 2021 Vivienne Hutton

Famous for Bourbon Country and horse farms, civil war battlefields and beautiful natural parks, Kentucky offers a delightful mix of experiences. You might begin in Lexington, where the 1200-acre Kentucky Horse Park is a popular attraction. The university adds exciting sports, impressive art and a vibrant student/professor population to the city. Louisville is similar, where renowned Churchill Downs hosts the annual Kentucky Derby and the Belle of Louisville, the nation’s oldest steam-driven river paddlewheeler, hosts enchanting lunch and dinner cruises along the beautiful Ohio River. Next, head south to visit Mammoth Cave National Park for a day of touring the cave (the world’s longest known cave), hiking and canoeing on the Green River. Paducah, Berea, Bowling Green – so many places to explore and enjoy!

Countdown Games

Largest and finest escape rooms in the world. Located in Lexington, Kentucky in the Hamburg area. Plenty of parking. Located behind Chick fil A.

Reviewed By rockytopfan06 - Knoxville, United States

My husband and I are an experienced escape room team (80ish together) and we really enjoyed both Pharoah’s Curse and The Castle. The price per person is very reasonable, especially given the quality of the rooms. The gamemasters were super nice and did a great job giving nudges when we got stuck. The decor in both rooms was beyond immersive, with multiple floors of fun. The puzzles weren’t too complicated and seemed fairly intuitive. Countdown Games is a gem and we will definitely return to try other rooms!

My friends and I did the Wizards Tale / Harry Potter themed room for my friends birthday and had an absolute blast! The puzzles were hard enough that it put the pressure on to get through everything, and the staff was beyond helpful with clues - even expanding on clues when we struggled with the basic hints they gave. I’ll definitely be going back!
