It was such a fun time and a challenging puzzle!! Matthew was super helpful and did such a great job telling the backstory and even a little fun fact at the end!

Cheyenne was the best. She gave us just enough of a nudge to keep us going but kept it challenging and fun. Thanks for the good times!

Had a great time. We solved it with 3 people and no clues. However, it wasn't too easy for experienced escapers. Chyanne was a good host.

We had such a great time! The room was a real brain teaser and definitely kept us thinking. Cheyanne and Allyandra were amazing—so helpful, fun, and made the whole experience even better. We had a blast and would definitely come back!

Ryan was a great host and narrator and the rooms were very detailed and thought out and if you enjoy science I would recommend choosing the experiment

Went here with my gfs for my birthday, and loved it! We did the kidnapped room. Lowkey scary. But I love scary stuff. Hehe.

Great escape room - we did the dark room. Matthew was a fantastic game master - perfect amount of hints. Recommend 100%

We had a great time playing the game show and doing an escape room back to back. Chyanne was incredibly friendly, explained everything well, and jumped in to give us clues exactly when we needed them. I’ll definitely be back next time I’m in Seattle!
