We had a great time doing several escape rooms here on different days. We did Prison Break - Walk the Mile, Towering Inferno - Race the Flames and Jack the Ripper. All rooms are private to the group that you came with. We wear our masks inside and then could take them off while in the room. The lobby is also nice and open with lots of space. No one else was there, but if there was another group - we'd have been spread out. They had some good tech - especially in Towering Inferno. We are a family of 4 with two teen boys. We've now done about 120 escape rooms. The staff here were friendly and provided recommendations on our second room after finishing Prison Break, we then went to Towering Inferno. If you are new to escape rooms, it's like a 3D puzzle, with many different types of puzzles. Definitely tell your gamemaster that it is your first game. That will help them tailor the clues. The game master will also sometimes offer nudges if you don't know what to do next or are going in the wrong direction. So if you like mysteries, cross-word puzzles, Sudoku, riddles, word games, etc.. these are for you. The first part of any escape room is usually a seek-n-find. Communication while you are in the room is very, very, very important. Sometimes letting your team members know that you found a place for a key just to find out they found a key (for example). Make sure to look at the escape rates of the rooms. Again, the game masters will usually accommodate if you let them know ahead of time. Happy gaming!! A great activity for families with teens.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 72 reviews
Escape rooms are a new form of reality gaming where players are locked in a room, provided a mission, and given 60 minutes to discover the way out. Try something different when you play one of our escape games. Find a room theme you think sounds fun, and see if you can discover all the clues to solve your way out of a locked room in less than an hour.

Great fun! Very happy with Covid precautions. We were the only people we saw besides the host. He had us sanitize upon entry and we all remain masked. The room was fun for our family of 6. Only downside to having smart kiddos (tween to 20's) was sometimes there were too many cooks in the kitchen. Hard to follow as everyone was solving things equally. We enjoyed it very much and will do it again for sure!

We saw a Whitney Cummings here and had a great time. Plenty of parking in the area. Lots of food and shopping options in addition to the club in the area. They had a pretty good system for getting people in and out. And they had one of the best waitstaff before and during the show that I’ve had at a comedy clubs. Prices are high for drinks and food, but that’s a Chicago for you.

1st off a storm came thru with torrential downpours. Suffered a brown out during the afternoon. Power came back after 1/2 hr. Boys saw Annabelle while I snuck away to the Avengers! Theater is huge, nice modern clean theater with recliners!! Boys of course indulged at concession stand, popcorn was fresh (exclude fake butter). A/c worked well some made need a sweater!! But those full seat recliners?! Don't go tired cuz so comfortable u'll fall asleep! And for just $6.79 this is your best bargain entertainment! (Especially Avengers was a quick 3hrs with Anabelle quicker 110min.!)
