Memphis Escape Rooms

Did The Mayflower room over Christmas and it was so much fun! My whole family did the room and it was very challenging but not unsolvable! The staff was great and I will definitely be back to do more rooms! I really really really wanna know «What’s in the Box?»
Highly recommended for all locals and tourists.

My family and I did escape rooms for the first time tonight. We had an amazing time getting to figure out the clues together. We escaped the Mayflower room with 14:01 left! Memphis escape rooms are a great way for families to spend time together during the holidays, and I will definitely recommend!

Compared to other escape rooms, I think it is much too hint reliant. Some of the connections can’t be made without hints, which isn’t really that fun.

We so enjoyed our experience! The staff are very friendly. We somehow did not get all the instructions on where the exit was so we didn’t realize we had escaped even when we did! But it was a blast and will definitely go visit their other rooms! We escaped the Mayflower with a minute and fifty seconds left!
They give you a number of clues (and hints if you get stuck!) to try to find your way out of the room. You have an hour to piece everything together and unlock the clues. Most rooms are for seven people, but the Halloween one I think is ten.
We had a little trouble finding them but they said they are working on signs – just consider finding the office space your first mystery of the evening! Park in the dark parking lot, go down the dark stairs into the poorly lit building. It’s sketchy but worth it! :)

This was awesome! So much fun! And I’m super proud to say my group won the game with 55seconds to spare! I forget the name of the room but it was the one where you’re going after a serial killer.
We’d heads about this kind of game in Nashville last year. So when we saw it was available in Memphis we knew we had to go. The rooms here sound great and we enjoyed the one we did. Not gonna lie it was frustrating but that’s cause we missed a big clue for several minutes. We ended up needing lots of clues. But it was still exciting and great!
This is definitely something you should do.

Memphis Escape Room was an incredible amount of fun! I begin by explaining what the Escape Room is, since I was a little hazy on the details going in.
Basically, escape room is a story puzzle. You and up to 6 other people are placed in a locked room with the objective being getting out of the room. The story puzzle we did, «What’s in The Box,» involved figuring out the combination to the lock on a box that, in the story, belonged to a recently deceased millionaire. In order to figure out the combination, the group must solve many many other puzzles which eventually lead to the correct combination. The catch is that you’re not given a road map to follow. Just placed in the room and try to figure it out. A computer will give you clues along the way if you’re off base.
I went with my brother, his wife, and my friend visiting from out of town. Up to 7 people can play at the same time, so if your group doesn’t use all 7 spots, other people may be in the group with you. Since we only had 4 people in my group, we had a couple join us. I loved this experience, since they were wonderful and contributed greatly to the puzzle solving process. The hour (50 min) went by so quickly since we were talking and actively thinking the entire time, and afterward we all really enjoyed de-​briefing with the team and the guy who worked there (who was nice and engaging).
The cost is $ 20 per person and I thought we definitely got our money’s worth given the amount of fun we had. There are currently only two story puzzles, but they open a new one on Friday ⁹⁄₂₅ and the guy said they’re going to do a Halloween one as well. I will definitely be going back to do the rest of the stories.
A final note, the place can be tricky to find since it’s in an office building. From the parking lot, walk towards the building on June road. There’s a stairway that leads to the bottom floor of the building. Go in the door and into the hall, it’s on the left.

I had a great time at Memphis Escape Room!
Going in, I had no idea what to expect: you’re in a room-​and you have to get out. That’s about all the info you have.
Well, pulling up, the building is impossible to recognize. It’s a nondescript brown lawyer’s office. We had to follow the relatively cheap-​looking signage to get in. To be honest, I wasn’t feeling great about what I was getting ready to do.
However, once the door closed and I had an hour to get I had an amazing time. I can’t reveal too much, but the challenge is very cerebral, and it was amazing how fast that hour went by. That’s about all I can say, but it’s a great way to spend an hour with a group of friends. No theatricality required!
A few things: you can get out to use the restroom, etc. Also, you aren’t required to do any heavy lifting or physical activity.
Show up with a good attitude and be ready to problem-​solve! I’ll definitely be going back!

Love this place!!! I had such a great time and had SO MUCH FUN! I’ve been wanting to check this place out since it opened and finally went for my first but definitely not my last time. We did the «What’s in the box» room and escaped!
Honestly I was nervous at first and didn’t think I was «smart» enough and had no idea what to expect. Then a friend invited me to go and I couldn’t turn it down. You don’t necessarily have to be «book smart» to do well and contribute to the escape, but you definitely have to use your brain. No real physical activity is involved. Teamwork also helps a lot.
I plan on doing the Mayflower room next and then Parallax when it opens. The staff was super friendly and cool. After we escaped the room we got to just sit around and joke about the whole experience and ask plenty of questions. Don’t hesitate to go if you’re on the fence and if you have no interest I hope you change your mind and experience the thrill of the escape. As soon as the door closes… IT’S ON!

I have successfully escaped Mayflower and What’s in the Box. Both rooms and the puzzles are great, and tell a very interesting story. Looking forward to escaping more rooms. It is a great value for the money at $ 20 a person. I do recommend booking the whole room with a group of 5 or more friends, or run the risk of being partnered up with other people.
The staff is extremely friendly and are very creative in their designs. I will say the place is a bit difficult to find if you’re unfamiliar with the area. It’s an office building adjacent to an apartment complex, and is located at the bottom of a stairwell. The only signage is a small white sign in the grassy lot of the building.

This is such a great concept! Recommend it for a fun night or a work team building activity!

A group from work went here last night. It was the funnest time. They lock your group in a room for an hour and you have to find the clues to solve the mystery and get out… Or lose. Each room has its own theme. We did the Mayflower room. Ten people rushing frantically for clues. Bring your monocle, your wit and your relative that always watched Murder She Wrote or Matlock and figured out who dunnit before it was over. I recommend no more than 7 or so in a group. The room gets warm after a few minutes with more. Also, if you don’t have enough in your group, let them know you’d like to be grouped with others if that is the case. You need at least 4 or 5 people going at this. You’ll have a blast — win or lose. Be on top of your game. And come ready to have fun and run around in a hurry. You’ll LOVE it. I intend to go back for a different room before they change the themes. This is a first for me!

Very very fun! It opens up your mind but if you played a lot of mystery games or puzzles In your childhood, some of the clues are easy to figure but overall everyone needs to experience coming here ! Coming again to try and solve the room

Lots of fun! The staff was very friendly and helpful. Can’t wait to go again!

Memphis Escape Room was totally fun and amazing! Like everyone else has said, this is a team effort and we had 7ppl to help. It came down to the wire and we Escaped with 1 min left! Go Team Fast7!
Great for group outtings and to test how well you can work together. What a great add to Memphis life. #yelp901. 2 rooms to work with now, can’t wait for the additional 3 rooms in the works which will give us more challenges to come!

Memphis Escape Room was amazing fun, and a great team builder! Mallory was so accommodating, and they had everything we need for a productive work session AND a fun activity. We did both rooms, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. Money well spent!

Such an amazing & fun time! Definitely going back. I recommend everyone check this out. Very awesome entertainment!!! The staff is so very friendly. It’s definitely worth 10 STARS!

This was so much fun! My team escaped the Mayflower room with 7 mins left! I highly suggest going with a group of 6 – 7 people to ensure success. The clues given are just right, hard enough to be challenging, but not too hard that you want to give up. Do it!

EPIC!!! NAIL BITING FUN!!!
This was my first escape room experience.
BOOK HERE:
What a rush!!!
In most escape rooms around the world, you’re given one hour to solve a series of clues, riddles, and puzzles to ultimately escape the room.
While you’re in the room, there is a timer counting down to the end, which really gets your adrenaline pumping.
You’re all detectives using various skill sets to uncover each clue.
Skills include: Logic, analytical abilities, curiosity, intuition, and more. It uses ALL of your senses.
As you solve one riddle, it leads you to the next. It’s kind of like a scavenger hunt.
The Memphis Escape Rooms allow up to seven people per group at $ 20 each.
They’re planning to have five different escape rooms at this location, using up to three rooms at a time. There’s a «Mayflower Room,» a «What’s in the Box Room» is available, they’re planning a «Halloween Room» and more.
During my trip here, another group canceled at the last minute so we only had four people in our escape room. Most groups that escape have the full seven people.
It’s absolutely exhilarating!
