Well, folks. My husband and I were both layed off from the restaurant business and looking for something fun to do to get out of the house. We found this gem in Chandler! Kate is an exceptionally nice and caring owner, who runs an exceptionally clean business and really cares about your experience. The rooms are private, so it is just you and your group-no strangers! We went 3 different days this week and had a super time. All rooms were neat, clean, and challenged our little grey cells very nicely. (We are both over 60 and had a blast.) Our favorite room was The Cabin, which was extremely well decorated in theme. Kate was our gamemaster for one room and Jon was our gamemaster for the other two. They were both fun and patient, and we enjoyed ourselves immensely. (Thx, Jon! Thx, Kate!) All the rooms we did are family friendly, but the cabin room had a creepy theme, but not scary. Kate explained the cleaning procedure for the business, and we hope that more people will find these rooms fun to do during this hard time. Highly recommended!…

Our group of four had never gone to an escape room before so this was new to us. The employees did a good job of explaining everything to us. We had a good time but I wish we had picked an easier room. We booked it on line and should have researched it better because we picked the Kates Hotel room which is a little more than a beginner room. You are give 90 minutes instead of the usual 60. So no we did not solve it... still fun though. …

Response from Kate O, Owner at ESCAPE:chandler

Hi ChrisP4242! 👋 Thanks so much for taking the time to write us a review of your experience playing with us! I'm the owner, and I'm very sorry to hear you didn't feel that you experienced a 5-star experience. You're certainly correct that our Kate's Motel game is a challenging game for players new to escape rooms! I do apologize that you didn't recognize the low escape rate for the game, which typically signals a more challenging game. Perhaps we could do a better job advertising this fact and we will certainly look into how we can improve conveying the difficulty level. I am happy to hear you had fun nonetheless (I lose when I play escape rooms, too! ha!), and I would love to have you guys give our other games a shot: we really want everyone to feel we're a 5-star facility, and I'd love the chance to earn that extra star from you! Please contact me personally at kate@escapechandler.com if you'd like to come back and try another game! I'll help you select the perfect game for your group! Thanks again for taking the time to write a review of us. We do sincerely appreciate it!

We were a group of 8 that had an absolutely fantastic time figuring out all the clues in the Escape Room in Chandler. I would highly recommend this activity. This was challenging, exhilarating and a great activity for friends. What a sense of accomplishment when we emerged from the room having solved the mystery! Do It!…

While in town for the weekend for my cousin's wedding, we found time to fit in two escape rooms, The Pawn Shop and The Cabin. Loved them both! The puzzle variety was excellent and the props, especially in The Cabin, were impressive. So much fun! Additionally, Kate was a fun-loving, outgoing host who clearly loves her job. Wish we lived closer so we could continue to challenge ourselves with their rooms. If you are anywhere in the metro Phoenix area, you must check out this escape room spot!…

The owners and staff here are amazing. And also a bonus: their rooms are amazing too! My friends and I have all done around 40-50 rooms each so we were very excited to try out the new escape rooms that open around the valley. They’ve been open for a bit, and we finally got the opportunity to do two rooms: Pawn Shop and The Cabin. They make great use of the space that they have. Lobby looks beautiful and their rooms do too. Puzzles were the right amount of difficulty to make it challenging, while also rewarding. You’ll get some classic puzzles and also some new unique ones here also. The game flows smoothly and puzzles makes sense so you’re not stuck asking for clue after clue after clue. Definitely come support this business, you’ll enjoy their rooms and be addicted to escape rooms (if you aren’t already). Highly recommended from an experienced escape room enthusiast (also an employee at a different escape room).…
