Got to try this for $ 5 at a Unilocal event. Did the escape from the prison cell and would highly recommend for group fun. I look forward to trying the other 2 rooms at some point plus they are finishing a 4th room. The regular price is $ 20 for students or $ 25 for everyone else, they have a Unilocal check-in offer and have previously done a cisaves deal of $ 59 for 6 people. If they have that offer again I would buy it as a gift.

So, a bunch of friends and I just did this tonight and it was so much fun! We did the insane professor hunt and we literally found the key to get out at the 60 minute time mark. It was challenging. The puzzles were interesting and we just kept finding more and more clues. I will definitely do this again.

This was really fun. We had 2 groups who did the Oval Office Room and the Professor Hunt Room. We had been wanting to try this for awhile but it is very expensive. We found a CiSaves coupon for 6 people(per room) that came out to $ 10 per person. Our group escaped the Oval Office in a little over 27 minutes. It was challenging and fun but I am glad we had the CiSaves coupon. I would love to go again, but will wait for another promotional offer. $ 25 per person is a little too expensive for us for the short time you are here.

We have never done anything like this before and it was amazing. We did the oval office with only two people. It was a blast but definitely recommend it for three or more people. It was challenging and really had us explore our inquisitive sides. Will deathly be doing again when we are in the area.

Went here yesterday with a couple coworkers and we had a blast. Did the defusing the bomb in the Oval Office one and got out with 40 seconds remaining. So exciting!

My friends and I had a lot of fun here, and we managed to escape the insane professor’s cabin with just 2 minutes to spare. But what’s really insane is the(ab)normally steep price of $ 150 for six people for a 1-hour activity! Luckily we got a cheap Groupon that brought it down to $ 59 in total. This was my first time doing an escape the room, but I went in with confidence, maybe even arrogance. What could outwit me? Pfft. The room’s puzzles weren’t exactly as easy as I thought they would be, but they didn’t crush my spirit either. Some things were really neat and clever, while others were much simpler than we thought. We were allowed to ask for three hints, but because we kept getting off track or stuck on something for too long, the person overseeing us kept giving us small helpful messages. I appreciate her help, because we would have gotten stuck and frustrated and wouldn’t have escaped in time. But it felt kind of wrong to get all of that help, like we cheated somehow. Maybe I’m still too arrogant. Next time I’ll see if brainstorm escapes can knock me down a peg.

I’ll keep this review short and sweet. This was the most fun I had in the past 6 months. It was a great experience, you have to give it a try!

This was so much fun!!! A different experience that our whole family enjoyed! My husband and I brought our 14 year old son and we all had a blast! Can’t wait to go back!!!

So my friend got a CU saves coupon and there was six of us. It was like 10pp with the coupon. You have to sign a waiver. Don’t break anything. We chose the Oval Office. It was bananas! The staff people are hella awesome. It’s a super fun time. Although at times, I wanted to shake the shit out of somethings, but it’s a rompe cabeza. And it literally broke my brain. I slept hella good that night. I wanted a drink afterwards. Yo, I can’t think that much or that hard. I know I don’t exactly sell it well. But trust me, you have to experience it. I would pay the full price to do it again and we are planning another one. We laughed a lot. I had a great time, except that making me think too much makes me cranky. If you like puzzles and riddles, this is it. It’s a great activity. Birthdays, celebrations, whatever what have you. What I really loved is that if you finish, in your honor, they donate 1 dollar to a sanctuary of your choice(you have four to choose from — a sanctuary for DV victims, animal shelter, children and I forgot the other one. It’s also per person, so I chose one and my teammates chose their own = 6 bucks, not bad. I know it’s not a panacea but shit, people can do what they can.). They call it «The Escape Movement».
