My daughter picked the “undead” for her 9th birthday celebration with our immediate family of 5. Our ages ranged up to age 50. This was our second extreme escape experience at this location. We all had different opinions on which experience was harder. This escape had several wow factors! It was a bit gruesome and spooky. At first glance I thought “this looks impossible”. But we solved it with 13 minutes to spare (with help only for the last step). Everyone had a blast! Kuddos to whoever designed this!!!!! The staff were great! It was a great confidence booster for the kids and teen. Each kid contributed and the youngest (9) found the first clue! Fun family bonding time. Wonderful memory with a picture to remind us of the good times.

We did The Other Side, it is a great escape room, with great design and effects. The only critique I have is that I’ve enjoyed others escape rooms a little more when they have more puzzles that require more than one person to participate, or when you can be working on more than one thing/searching for more than one clue at a time. But what made the experience really great was the staff they were incredible!

I’ve tried to receive a refund for 3 weeks. I accidentally booked a following day and on site— the business was closed to receive a refund during “normal business hours.” I was unable to experience the services with your company. No customer should have to purchase “cancellation insurance” for an escape room. Your assistance would be appreciated ! Shawn K.

Eva's Heroes is a non profit that works to enrich the lives of individuals with intellectual special needs ages 14 and up. We took a group out filled up all the rooms they had. The participants and staff had a blast and the service was great! Highly recommend it!

We have done a LOT of escape rooms around the country. What we have learned is that the game master can make or break how fun your experience is. Chris was masterful in both of our rooms!! Karla was so welcoming when we arrived and set us up for success.

Went with my boyfriend and two sons (21 y/o and 17 y/o). We did the Curse at the Stone Oak location. It was a lot of fun. This was probably one of the easiest escape rooms I’ve done, but still engaging and fun.

Being a mom to teenagers, getting them to do “fun” stuff with me isn’t always on the top of their list but this has been different. This is our second time here and we are looking forward to completing all the rooms as well as the rooms at the Stone Oak location. The staff is always friendly and extremely helpful. The facility is nice and clean and I feel “safe” bringing my family here during Covid season.

We were in San Antonio for our choir tour this weekend and I took my seniors for a night out on the last evening of our tour. We called Extreme Escape and they were not only flexible enough to get us in late in the schedule, but they also accommodated our group by staying open after their normal time! We chose the magic room. The kids had a wonderful time. I think it was our best senior night ever! We teachers were able to watch the kids from the control room. The staff was courteous, creative and so kind. We LOVED it. This would be great for teambuilding or a group outing!!!! HIGHLY and SINCERELY recommend!!!! 🤓 thank you, EE!

This was fun and very realistic. Went with 12 yr old nephew and grandma. Everyone had a blast, but a little difficult for the 3 of us but we did make it to the treasure with some clues, just couldn't figure out last step to get out. We were looking to go back and try a different one.
