Jun 2021 • Family
We took our pre-teens and teens as well as our Grandpa into Gold Rush. We knew it was going to either be really bad or really awesome. It was awesome! Everyone played a crucial part in solving the escape. I love how each clue triggered differently in each brain! So fun! We would and do definitely recommend The Escape Game experience over any other brand! Five stars!

Really high production facility, but Mars needs some TLC
I’ve done two other rooms at The Escape Game, both in New Orleans, so maybe they’re a bit more up to date, but the Playground room and Special ops were amazing. We chose the Mars room as it’s unique to Orlando and we thought there was no way we wouldn’t have another 5 star time.
However the room clearly had been around for a while and needed some touch ups. There were pipes broken off, one of the puzzles were superglued and as I was just normally using it, it fell apart, not to mention it failed the cardinal sin of escape rooms and had 2 puzzles that didn’t work properly! The first one was a digital code that we entered correctly, we were told by a computer voice it was correct and would open something, and so we look around, waiting, and maybe 2 minutes later the door just opens up.
The other big one which really cost us the whole experience was that there were magnets that we needed to place in a fairly obvious spot and did so almost immediately after receiving them, but it didn’t activate. So we moved on trying thing after thing, but obviously none of it worked as we had to do the previous puzzle with the magnet. Our host then tried to help by letting us know that there was indeed a magnet in the object which didn’t help at all.
We still managed to nearly escape after spending a solid 15 minutes doing essentially nothing, and I think if we didn’t have that issue we probably would’ve both escaped and given 5 stars. Just make sure your puzzles work and when it doesn’t feel free to let us know so we can try again.

Good first experience
May 2021
I didnt really know what to expect here at first. I had some good fun with my friends. We didnt ask for any hints but we got them at the perfect moment we started to get stumped. We were very grateful for the extra few minutes and veing given the win despite running out of time at the last puzzle. Also a very big fan of our guide saying "awesomesauce" near the end.

We were in Orlando for 5 days and we did 3 escape rooms at The Escape Game.
Set Design: 4/5; despite having done 3 rooms, all of very different themes, the set design was consistently done well. The less high-tech rooms still had a lot to offer.
Puzzle Creativity: 5/5; original puzzles with solutions that made sense. Some puzzles, for the sake of being difficult, require solutions that are unreasonable-- that was rarely the case for the rooms at The Escape Game. There was a good mix between puzzles that were hard because you needed to figure out the steps to solve them (eg. slipper sizes), puzzles that were hard because it required lots of steps to solve (eg. map), and puzzles that required physical ingenuity (eg. cane).
Storyline: 3/5; the storylines for the rooms we did were pretty standard stories. The puzzles all fit well into the events and nothing felt like it was a stretch.
The game masters deserve some praise. All 3 game masters that we had were attentive and responded quickly to our requests for hints. They paid attention to where we were in the game and were able to provide help promptly. It's especially appreciated when they provide a small nudge in the right direction-- not because the group was truly stuck on any particular challenge, but more because we were bad at looking at things. We frequently spoke aloud what we were expecting to find in order to solve the next challenge but would fail to identify the item, despite it typically not being hidden (eg. "we need puzzle pieces to complete the image so that we can decode the lock combination," the puzzle pieces were stacked at eye level). Our game master followed along well enough to be able to remind us, at the relevant moments, to search properly.

Seriously the best escape room ever
Apr 2021 • Family
Best escape room ever! We love doing escape rooms as a family and we've done quite a few. This room was so unique and multilayered in the tasks but also the room atmosphere, it was amazing. I don't want to give things away but this room has something for everyone. Traditional escape room portions but also more high tech puzzles. Plus the staff is super nice. Hannah was our puzzle master and she was great. She was great with giving clues when we needed them and even helped us pick another room because we booked another escape before we left 😀

Hi, I’m planning to come in July with a group of 4. I’m 29 and bringing my nieces and nephew. Age 17, 16 and 13. What room would you suggest ? Difficulty wise .

I have osteoarthritis in my hips. I CAN walk, stand, and do stairs, BUT it is a bit tiring and chronic low level discomfort, especially if no short moments to sit sporadically. Like, I can do Disne World, but I sit on the benches as I cross the park. Do you this is manageable?

These escape games are available for different levels of challenge. You can go at your own pace, however, you only have an hour. There are at times, situations you encounter where you might need to crawl, bend and stretch to reach difficult places. Also, unless you purchase the ENTIRE room, you could be paired up with others. Rooms can be booked up as much as 6 to 8 people depending on the game room allowance. You also have to sign a waiver before entering a game. I would suggest calling them directly and speaking with the friendly and knowledgeable staff for their insight on your concerns.

What is the most people that can go into one room? we have a party between 10-12 people

Gold Rush says up to 8, our party originally had 9 going that they were going to allow us in with but we ended up only 7. I could see that more than 8 would be pretty stuffed. I suggest 7 for Gold Rush room.

I'm thinking about doing Gold Rush which is rated as one of their least difficult rooms with my wife and 9 year old daughter. Without giving spoilers, do you think 9 is too young to play? Is there any content in the room that would be inappropriate for young children to see?

I didn't do Gold Rush but I did the Heist and I can say absolutely none of the content was inappropriate. If Gold Rush is one of the least challenging ones then I imagine it'd be even more appropriate than the Heist! If you're still unsure, you can always call, the staff will give you the details you need to know.
I want to do this with my gf. I know I'll have to pay for the empty slots but how many is considered a group? Also would it be possible to escape with just the 2 of us?

First of all you do not pay for empty slots and it is possible to play just the two of you it depends on which game what time and what day my girlfriend and I did the art Heist and we were just two

what happens if you do not escape within the hour

Throughout the hour the staff member is watching and can communicate with you on screens. You are allowed to ask for three hints at any time. In addition, they can give you clues throughout the game that don't count towards those three. If you are close to a clue, they will give you a hint. I think that they make sure most groups make it through.

Hey just wondering how much this is and would I have to pre book?
Thanks

It is about $31 for an hour, per person. They recommend that you book the entire room if you want a private experience, which means you would pay for all available slots. We booked a party of 4 on the morning of the day we wanted to go (a Friday night), but our preferred time was already booked so we chose a different time. When we arrived, they asked if we had preregistered, so I think they may take walk-ins on a space available basis.

If you had to choose between Gold Rush and the Heist, which would be your favorite? Also there will only be 3 of us! I am booking an experience with myself (25 yo), and my parents (50s). I'd like to think we're intelligent people, but if you have a suggestion for which you might think would be better with fewer people and with a man who might get a little impatient, I'd love to hear your thoughts!

I did the Gold Rush with 6 people. Four were in their fifties and two were late twenties. The help is excellent at the Orlando venue. I think it will be a challenge for 3 people for either one of the games. However, there is some crawling in the gold rush. I might try the heist, instead.

I am bringing my 8 year old with a full group including his 13 year old brother. Will this be any issue?

We played a game with younger players and they loved it. It's good that you have a full group of people you know because younger players definitely changes the game dynamics and for strangers, it might not be as good an experience.
