My wife and I did The Bunker escape room while on a weekend getaway. Afterwards, we decided that it was by far the best escape room we have done to date (we have done a lot). We had an absolute blast. The details and other such things we can’t speak of were so well done and made the experience so believable! I highly recommend this room to anyway who’s looking at it. We will be back to do this room again with our friends and family. The staff were also professional and super nice, accommodating our schedule needs and only having two people.

We did a virtual escape room on Runaway Train. Trell, our guide, was very ncie and did a great job being our avatar. They have done a great job making the experience virtual in terms of being able to see your clues and 360 views of the rooms. We were able to escape with about 48 seconds to spare! I highly recommend this experience for a group of friends or for a team building activity.

My wife and I came here on our honeymoon, and we did the Runaway Train game. I have done a lot of Escape Rooms in the past, and I spent 2 years working at one. This game was one of my favorites that I have ever done! It required my wife and me to communicate effectively, the puzzles were challenging at times, but not nonsensical. Coolest of all, the game was actually inside a real train car!
Big shout out to Jada, who was our game guide. She did an excellent job with guiding us through the game, was fun to talk to, and also helped me find my phone when I lost it in the room afterwards. Overall, I highly, highly recommend this one!

Don’t come here!! This business took our reservation for 2:35pm today, then we arrived to locked doors. No email, no call, and no note on the door to let us know they won’t be open. We wasted time and money on our vacation to Uber here and we’re beyond disappointed that they do not have respect or decency to tell us they can’t accommodate customers today. Beyond rude. Don’t come.

Hi Jen! Are you sure you came to our escape room and not another competitor? We can't find any record of you creating a booking, but maybe we are looking at the wrong dates/names, etc. Please give us a call so that we can resolve this. If it was our company, we certainly want to find your booking and send you a refund. So sorry that happened to you. Thanks! (423) 551-3306

Room props and some of the locks were wore out. You could guess the actions of the clues by how much things were wore out in the room. Opened one lock with the wrong code and it actually worked. Lady at front desk told us code once we were finished and our code was wrong but yet box still opened and was able to get out. Things need to be updated. And refurbished from wear and tear.

Staff was very friendly. But many things went wrong. Some of the necessary items needed to move forward with the challenge were missing or didn’t work. Communication with staff while in the room was slow, frustrating and sometimes not helpful as they were telling us things we already knew. I have done dozens of escape rooms and this was one of the worst experiences I’ve had. For all the things that went wrong, I feel we should have been discounted or received a discounted or free room experience. That would have gotten me back to determine if this was a one time mistake or a pattern. As of now. Not likely I will choose this location again.

We did the runaway train escape room - for starters - it’s ON an actual train. This is honestly the reason we chose that room and we were not disappointed. I believe their rooms are for up to 8 players, we did it with 2 and made it out. We have done a lot of rooms, so I would say if you were a beginner, you’d definitely need more than 2 people to tackle this one. It’s a great room, unique with some fun gadgets and multiple rooms. Highly recommend!! And they were nice enough to accommodate us on a last minute booking late in the evening.

This was by far the best escape room we have ever done. The attention to detail, the special effects were incredible. Complexity was good. We did need to ask for a few clues, and those were very good for moving us along without giving away too much. We had a group of 6. By the way, we did "The Bunker". It was cool because there were 2 missions, escape and a second mission. Enough for us to break into groups and help each other. Highly recommend!

I was able to do this room during the COVID pandemic with friends from several states and it was a phenomenal experience. High quality, everyone enjoyed it, I was very impressed with the experience. Their in-person removes are also great, but even virtually it was done well. Highly recommended.

Group of friends from work decided we would have some fun after hours but no boys allowed. Wide range in age but all had an awesome time from the oldest (59) to the youngest (30). Only two had been to an escape room before but all were able to help. We did have to ask for some help but Matt was great. Not easy but not so difficult you couldn’t win. I highly recommend for anyone that is competitive, likes to figure things out and have clean wholesome fun.

What ages can participate? We have a 5, 11 and 13 year old.
Written July 4, 2018
They can all participate as long as there is a guardian adult with them in the room. The 13 year is a great age for this type of activity and will get the most out of the experience. The 5 year old may not feel as involved.

Written July 4, 2018
It would be very difficult for an 11 and 5 year old. I can only speak for myself, but it was challenging intellectually. I absolutely loved it, but I think it certainly for teens and adults.

Can a couple play or do you have to have a larger group
Written August 26, 2017
Yes! A group of two can play alone. Having only two people will make escaping more of a challenge. Having a larger group will increase your chances of escaping, but you will have fun either way.
If you book for a private event you are guaranteed to only have the two of you in the room. There may be a additional people in your room if you don't book for a private event.
Written August 28, 2017
We will be in Chattanooga on Monday 10/10/16,party of 2. Would like to book at present we are flexible as far as time for activity.

I hope you figured out that Trip Advisor isn't the business. It's just reviews of businesses. And I hope you contacted Escape Experience Chattanooga and got to have as much fun as we did there :)

The cost is $28 per person, plus tax. The total price for four (4) people, including tax would be $122.36. Thank you for your interest in the Escape Experience!

I have a group of 9 but I keep only seeing booking options for 8. Is 9 just not possible?
Written August 3, 2015
Hi, thanks for your question! We limit each room to 8 people to prevent overcrowding the room, especially when it is a group of strangers. However, if you are booking an entire room for your group, we can stretch capacity up to 10 people. In this case, just book the 8 available spots and bring your ninth person along to pay upon arrival, or if you know exactly what time you want to book, we can manually increase the number of participant slots available to book. In this case, please give us a call at (423) 551-3306 to let us know what time you wish to book, and we will be happy to accommodate your larger group.

On Facebook it says there is going to be a 3rd scenario soon but in the pictures it shows there are four scenarios. Is there a fourth one coming soon and will it be scary? Also will the scary one have a required age?
Written June 7, 2015
Hi Emily! We are currently in the process of finishing the third scenario and hope to have it open to the public by the end of June. Our building has enough space that we can add additional rooms once the third scenario is open. However, we are focusing all of our attention on finishing the third scenario before we start any work on the fourth, so it will be at least a few months before the fourth takes shape. Because of this, we really only have a basic idea for it and cannot yet say for certain whether it will be scary or not, but since our third scenario will have some scary elements in it, the fourth most likely will not. As of right now, there is no required age. Before we open the third scenario to the public though, we will spend some time testing it, which will help us determine whether there needs to be a minimum age. When we announce the opening of the scenario, all of this information will be covered. Thank you for your questions though, and we hope you will come give one of our rooms an attempt!

What are the ages that it's geared to? We have two boys 5 and 8 are they too young to do this?
Written June 2, 2015
Hi Nina! Thanks for your Interest in the Escape Experience - Chattanooga. We recommend and design our escape experience scenario rooms for participants that are 12 years old and up. That being said, we've had several participants 5 years old and up go through each of our experiences. From my observations, I'd say the 8-year old will have a blast and will understand what the objective is and contribute accordingly. The 5-year will probably good at finding hidden things. I'd recommend C-Block for young kinds. They'll get to where handcuffs and they seem to enjoy that.

Hi Stacy! The cost is $28 per person, plus tax. Our hours vary. Each experience is by appointment and booked online through our website. We currently have a full schedule of options to choose from Thursday through Sunday, with limited availability Monday through Wednesday. If you have a special time that you'd like to come, just call/email us and we can also setup up a private event for you. Thanks for your interest in the Escape Experience - Chattanooga!

We think so....and it looks like our customers think so too. Check out our reviews. Several have addressed your question directly.
Come give us a try. We think you'll agree.
