    This was the best escape room i’ve ever been in 🙏 Me and my girlfriend did the zombie apocalypse and it was really challenging and fun at the same time. The story was also very interesting which is cool to see in an escape room.

    We did the zombie escape room and it was so much fun! It wasn’t impossible to do and not easy (which is a good thing!). Hints are available if you want them and definitely something I’d go to again!! After you get pictures taken in front of a green screen with props you get to choose. Then they’re sent to you so you have a lasting memory of the escape room.

    We had an awesome time at this escape room! The price was very reasonable — $30 per person for four of us — and they even offered a promotion for half off a second room, which we couldn’t pass up. Before starting, Koda gave us a thorough walkthrough of how all the locks worked and let us know that a few could be a little finicky (which was super helpful!). The first room was fairly straightforward — fun, engaging, and we managed to finish in about 40 minutes. The second room was definitely more challenging, but still doable — we wrapped it up in 43 minutes after a helpful starting hint from the staff. All the puzzles were lock-based, and while the rooms were a bit on the smaller side, they comfortably fit our group of four. The employees were great — very attentive and checked in regularly to make sure everything was running smoothly. Overall, it was a really enjoyable experience and a great value. Highly recommend for small groups of 4–6 looking for a fun, puzzle-filled outing!
