I had a blast here. We had scheduled for only 2 of us and instead of joining with 8, 12 year olds, the owner let us do another room. Let the party be on their own and us on our own. We definitely appreciated that and when I come back I will be back for another escape room. Really wanted to do the haunting so hopefully its still there when I come back. Highly recommend if you want a good time and enjoy an escape room.

My friends and I had a blast attempting to solve this escape room. It was well set up and even have a few lighting effects to give it a great feel. We will be back to try the other ones one day. We will not stay defeated.

Compared to other escape rooms, The Panic Room was more exciting because of the owners involvement during our time in the room! He was very interactive in truly giving us a memorable experience. Highly recommend!

My husband and I love doing escape rooms when we travel. The Panic Room is our favorite. We’ve completed 3 of the rooms. Each one was unique and a lot of fun.

Excellent puzzles to solve. The guy who runs this place is nice and friendly keeps you thinking even if you ask for hints. I was very close to solve the little Egypt puzzle although felt short of time.I recommend this place for real life puzzle solving.

My daughter wanted to try one of the rooms for her 14th birthday. We made a reservation for her and 5 friends, and they had an amazing time! Jeff was great with the kids, and even though they didnt escape, they were talking nonstop about how fun it was on the ride home! Will definitely be back !

Total fun! We did the Little Egyptian room. It had plenty of puzzles that were just hard enough to make you scratch your head, but once you knew the answer it was completely obvious. I loved it! I will definitely be coming back and bringing more friends with me!

I was very pleased with The Panic Room. We scheduled the Secrets of Little Egypt. The room was set up very nice. The clues and props flowed great. The game master did an amazing job with the clues, most of the time we where on the right track, just needed a little push in the right direction. Wish I could come back to do the rest of his rooms!

Did the Secrets of Little Egypt... Super fun! It wasnt scary like I was expecting (Im a scaredy cat that doesnt like haunted houses) so that was good. The guy working there was so friendly and really amped up the excitement and fun. Would definitely go back and try the harder one (even though its a haunted house!).

The guy was very friendly. The Christmas escape 2 was very well made but since it is family friendly, the escape was too easy for us. We spent a lot of time at the beginning thinking we wouldnt be able to finish so we asked for a couple of hints but we shouldnt have because toward the end it ended up being way too easy. We ended up unlocking rest of the locks (a lot of them) in 10 mins finishing the escape in 40 mins total........... Wish it was a little more complex. It was an easy and boring one but great for first timers/beginners. Also $25 pp is way too expensive.
