I think I've done 6-7 escape rooms at Escape the Space. I've gone with as few as three people or with a large group that rented the entire facility. Each time, I had a blast! The rooms were challenging but fun, and the game masters also do a good job of not providing too many hints or help. If you are in the Athens area, give them a try. They will be accommodating of your group; you won't be disappointed!

Escape rooms are the newest craze sweeping the nation. By combining scavenger hunts with secret codes and puzzles and placing them in a fun and immersive setting, escape rooms are a great way to take a break from reality. The experience begins when a team of up to 8 "Escape Artists" (composed of family, friends, and strangers) are locked in a room and have 60 minutes to achieve the goal and escape. The challenges will require the artists to work together and use every bit of their wit, critical thinking and problem solving skills to discover, analyze, and solve the puzzles needed to get out. Book your experience with us today and let us help you ESCAPE REALITY!

Reviewed By Dian793 - Atlanta, United States
I have had UGA season tickets for over 40 years and attended most of the home games in Sanford Stadium during that time and also as a student at UGA. I have watched this stadium improve and expand over many years to the very best in the SEC. It is beautiful, well designed and comfortable even with a full house of 94,000 fans.
