Our family did the Elliot Ness room and it was awesome! It was challenging, fun, and the theme was very well carried through as you go through the puzzles. The game master gave small hints when we asked for them, but he still made us think through the meaning of the clues when he gave them to us. The room was ready on time and the staff was helpful and friendly. Highly recommend going here! We were visiting from out of town but would go back anytime - great value and great fun!

Well thought out mystery. We got stumped in several areas and needed some clues. Great way to spent an hour! Rebecca was our host and she did a great job. We will be back for more fun!

First time escape room for 6 out of 8 of us. We did the Eliot Ness escape; it was fun. Nick did a great job of introducing the challenge and gave us a couple of clues when we needed them. Our 2 younger family members (in their 20s) were definitely the reason we were able to get out in time! A great New Years Day family event.

This is the second time we've been here. First, we did the Eliot Ness room and it was amazing - challenging yet solveable (we did it!). This year we did the Clockwork room - also challenging, fun but much shorter (we were done in less than 30 minutes). We really love Perplexity, the games require real teamwork and all types of thinkers and doers. Don't pass them up!

We had a great time! 6 girlfriends (above 60) celebrating a birthday. The puzzles were good and challenging. We had to receive help and we didn't finish. We needed at least 1/2 hour more.
The whole experience was fun. The guides were wonderful. Enthusiastic and gave us hints. They were very encouraging.
Parking was ample and right there.

We appreciate Perplexity coming to our rescue on a Sunday! It was my son's birthday. Another Escape Room never showed up for our appointment! (and a person could not be contacted via phone). My son obviously was very upset. We called Perplexity and talked to a live person!. They were able to make us an appointment in the afternoon. We turned a very stressful situation into a fun one with the help of Perpexity. We enjoyed the escape eoom experience. Thanks for saving my son's special day.

I had a lot of fun doing the room, even though we got stuck and had to ask for help. There was really only one math problem that stumped us, and if we had finished the room quicker I’d kinda would have liked to see if it was solvable or if there was a typo (since they just restarted after Corona). We would definitely come back and try another room! Brandon was very helpful, polite, and encouraging; he made the experience even better!

Thinking about including our grandparents in their late 70's and one needs to sit rather than stand during the 60 minutes. Are chairs available? Is lighting sufficient?
Thanks

Choose the Eliot Ness Investigation rather than Clockwork Caper. Lighting is sufficient and there is a chair in every room. We had a 75th birthday party in the game yesterday!

Group discount for 10? This would be an award of sorts. Can't be scary or involve any steps or getting down on the floor. A couple of our people may need a chair available is that possible? What is your slowest night. We do not need a weekend. For a fun evening full of laughter which room would you recommend?

Thanks so much for your interest in Perplexity Games! The steps may be a problem. We are in the lower of a historical building with no elevator. There is a single flight of stairs straight down to get to us. If your group can navigate that, the rest is right up our alley. The Eliot Ness game would accommodate you, is not scary, and has chairs in each room. please call to discuss pricing.

Hello,
We are a family of 4 from Denmark (children age 13 and 15). We will stay in Cleveland in july this summer. Is it posible for only 4 people to play this? And do you know if maybe the lack of some english words will make the game to diffucult for us?
Thanks!

Hi, either game is possible to play with just four people. If you wish to play by yourselves we may be able to accommodate that if you call us and pick an off-peak time. The American escape room industry primarily uses an open booking system that allows people to play with others that they don't know, as opposed to the European rooms that book only private parties. The Clockwork Caper game has few written clues so might be a good choice. Thanks for your inquiry. We'd love to see you!
