"We loved it so much..."

We all had a great experience here and highly recommend it. We had Marcus as our guide and he was terrific. We had a party of 8 and were able to complete and solve the game room. We loved it so much we bought tickets to come back again, right after we finished the room. Can’t wait to go back and try another room. Typically our family wouldn’t do something like this, and we’re really glad we did. I would definitely recommend coming to this site!
