Great Escape Room Experience - My daughter and I did The Heist room. From the moment we walked in the door to the moment we left everyone we interacted with was personable, helpful, and fun! The room was tough and as people who do a lot of rooms, had some exciting challenges.

Escaped the playground! - Highly recommend the escape experience! Each one is a different experience but the playground was so much fun. We were given the extra minutes we needed to escape so that was a plus!!!!! We were paired with another couple which was so much fun.

Amazing Hospitality!! - We did 3 rooms in these 2 days. Every time we entered the shop, the shop staff (receptionists) welcomed us with the positive smile, which makes us excited already. They know the best game for us always based on our experience. Once we go into each room, it’s another world! Each room is well decorated so that we can feel as if we were in another world. Another thing that I like very much is that each room can be enjoyed even if you are not good at English, we totally enjoyed as foreigners (average Japanese) without any language troubles. Then the quizzes! They are awesome!! When we finished the 1st room (Play Ground) which we could not escape, we already knew we would come back soon! Then we made the reservations for the next room for the following day. 2nd room (Gold Rush) was also awesome! We did escape the room, we used a lot of hints though. We had 5 members in the team which means we had 2more than the previous day and we had more power and brains! We were so happy that we ran into the 3rd room (HEIST). The story and the room decoration is beautifully made. I like this one the best. Throughout all those 3 rooms, the tour guides watched us and listened to us closely enough to provide us the appropriate additional information. Lastly, I can not avoid to tell that the shop staff’s prompt first aid. One of my team mates fell down on the way coming to the shop and arrived with bloody face!!! The receptionists brought the first aid kit, and helped us a lot! Thanks so much. His injury was not so heavy and he could enjoy the escape room game after that. In total, I really recommend all the viewers of this post visit this shop, see talk with the receptionists and go into “another world”. 2日間に亘り、3つの部屋に挑戦しました。 Play Ground, Gold Rush, HEIST の3つです。 いずれも非常に良く構成されていて、虜になりました。英語が不得意でも特に困難なく進めることができるので、安心して参加してください。

We loved our visit - We did both gold rush and prison break rooms. We loved them both! They are challenging. Staff was really nice. Kristin was our game master and she was phenomenal. We loved having her.

Great Austin room escape - We love escape rooms, and this company never disappoints. We were able to do the prequel to Special Ops,called Classified. Our game master Daniel was so wonderful! Apologies if name is misspelled. We took advantage of the 20% off the next room, and did Playground the next night. This was such a special room, so much fun for a large group! We did it with 5. Lobby was nice and cool, which is so helpful when you come in from the hot Austin weather. My game experience is always improved when the staff loves room escapes, and these people really did! Thanks so much!

Awesome escape room experiences! - Amazing escape room experience! My husband and I have have done around 25 escape rooms and we were so impressed with their rooms at this Escape Game location. We did 2 rooms here (Classified & The Heist) and both were well-themed with clever puzzles. Kristen was our Game Host for both games and she was so welcoming, fun, and has awesome energy! We highly recommend this escape room location for everyone!

Absolutely Amazing Experience - The escape room, classified was absolutely amazing. The room itself was decorated so creatively and so well done. Our “team lead” Jonny helped us all the way through the room. He was most definitely the best part of the whole experience, and he wasn’t even in the room!
