Frequently-Asked Questions

How do I prepare for an escape room?

Try to eat something energizing and make sure you are wearing comfortable clothes you can move around in. Be sure to get plenty of sleep the night before and do some stretches on the day of. Make a battle plan with your team so you can hit the ground running once the puzzles start.

Can I leave the escape room at anytime?

Absolutely! The door leading into your escape room is always unlocked. Step outside at any time to use the restroom or even answer a phone call.

What happens if I don’t escape an escape room?

There are no consequences of failing to escape in time. Of course, we would never poke fun at you and instead, we’ll encourage you to come back and try again next time! Or if you prefer, we are happy to answer any questions you might have on the game.
