This was one of the best escape rooms we have been to. My husband and and I have collectively completed about 20 or so escape rooms around the country and this experience was great. It was immersive, the puzzles were novel and creative, and the game masters were fun! We will very come back next time we are in town. If you’re a serious escape room enthusiasts, try this place out!

Game On Escapes & More delivers above & beyond expectations. My husband, son, & I wanted to celebrate this 2020 Global Pandemic Halloween with an entertaining activity. All NC Covid-19 guidelines were strictly followed. The staff is courteous, friendly, & professional. Our personal Game Master David was a helpful & patient wizard guiding us when necessary. We picked the MacGregor Manner Room due to the spooky holiday theme. On a scale of 1-10, 1 being easy and 10 being extremely difficult, we rate the Manor Room a level 9. Definitely not for beginner Escape Room players. Game On Escapes in Cary is conveniently located on the 2 ND floor with elevator accessibility. It is a family friendly environment with several room options. The cost for an hour of engaging, logical, & critical thinking skills used to have a great time is priceless. A group photo was taken to commemorate the occasion. If you are looking for a unique family activity that will teach you to think, solve puzzles, use team-building strategies, & have a memorable time, this is it!

Paid for an escape room for my daughters 15th birthday. She had some of her friends go with her and this is what she says about the experience: It was extremely fun and had some good jump scares, but could have had more and wish there were cameras in the room to take photos of us while we were in there. Overall I had a really good time and it was a lot of fun. The staff was very helpful and friendly and the rooms were packed with clues.

This was my 3rd escape room, definitely my favorite! We escaped from the the jungle Great effects and lots of different puzzles, Andrew and Holden were great game masters and made the whole experience so much fun. Played with 7 ppl age 17to 65 and all had a blast. This was more creative and interactive than the others I’ve done and we will definitely go back to Game On

Had a blast! Summer and Justin were our game masters and they were incredibly helpful! The room itself (Dr.Love) was definitely difficult, but had so many fun clues to figure out. We already plan on going back when the rooms get switched up!!

Review №11

Had so much fun! My cousin and I completed the Macgregor Manor today. The hosts made it scary which made it more fun! Definitely recommend this place and well be here again. If you want hard rooms it would be Rest Easy Motel and Macgregor Manor.

Review from an escape room enthusiast that has done over 70 rooms!! We did Rest Easy Motel and the Trapped in a Jungle, both were Awesome rooms!! Both in our favorite top 5 ever!!! If you are local you must do these rooms!! If you are passing through, it is worth your time.

Super cool escape room place. Lots of interesting in depth rooms with awesome themes. And the staff seemed really friendly and helpful throughout the whole thing. Even with covid this place seems to be keeping everything extremely clean and limits the number of games to make sure its all safe.

Review №16

Our experience was RUINED by our host Mackenzie who kept spoiling puzzle after puzzle with her nudges that we didnt ask for or desire. The whole point of the $180 we spent was to be challenged by creative puzzles that we could work through as a team, not to have the answers quickly dispensed if we didnt immediately find the answers. Maybe some beginner room escapers like getting tons of help so their success is guaranteed, but as veterans we found it unwelcomed and completely detrimental to our enjoyment. This was our 3rd visit and sadly probably our last.

Review №17

The degree of difficulty was intense, but it is masterfully designed! Truly brilliant. We didnt make it out, and required a lot of help, but we had a great time and would do it again any time. Highly recommend.

This was our first escape room and it did not disappoint. We are a family of 7 I had ages 9-16. We all had a blast. Would definitely recommend. Already planning our next escape room.

Review №23

Our guide, whether his name was Zade, or Zane we’re not totally sure, was great. He provided such stability for us during these unprecedented times. We want to personally apologize for our mildly aggressive and demanding behavior. We went from “We don’t need your help bruh” to “Dude we asked about the phone not the mirror!!” pretty quickly. Despite being under great stress, that does not excuse our attitudes toward someone who was only trying to help us. We’re sorry Zade, or Zane, or Zay, whatever your name was, keep up the good work. Are you guys hiring?

Took my 12-year old nephew. We did the Manor House. Was a great experience for us both. Andrea, our host, was awesome! He was friendly, helpful, respectful. My nephew wants to do it again!

We had a great time in the Sorcerer’s Mistake room! The facility was extremely clean, COVID-conscious, and very well organized. This was definitely one of the top escape rooms I’ve done and would highly recommend!

Review №26

I scheduled a game here for a 9:30 appointment on my way to the game I got a flat tire and was unable to make it. I called them and explained that I got a flat on my way there & I was unable to make it to the game and was there anyway I could get a refund. He had an attitude and stated the weekend nights are his “prime nights” and by us not showing up he was losing money. I understand you are a business but what the hell did he expect me to do walk there ? I am sorry me getting a flat was an “inconvenience” for YOU but that was terrible customer service and extremely unprofessional, I would NOT recommend.

Review №27

A lot of fun! Definitely want to go back for other rooms. The hour went by so fast we were having so much fun

Review №28

Went there to celebrate my 21st birthday, and it was the most fun Ive had in a long time. The room I did was really well set up and the puzzle was engaging, and difficult enough for the victories to feel well earned. The game masters are incredibly friendly and helpful, especially if they notice youre struggling in a certain area. This place is a fantastic idea for parties, or if you and your friend group want to break from normal routine and work your brains a little. 10/10

My son and I have so much fun at escape rooms! This was a great experience at a well-thought out room!

Review №30

Emmy - our host was great! This place itself was super great. The thought and time that went into these rooms are impressive. The level of detail shows though the fun and complexity of the many puzzles. 60 minutes in a room went by so quickly as we were all having so much fun. We did this as a work thing and I was unsure at first in how the night would go, but it turned out to be so great! If you are on the fence do it. The Bates hotel-ish to was the room we did (one of many options) and we do not regret it one bit. Just go there already and have some fun!

Review №31

Our summer camp group from RushHour Karting really enjoyed this experience! Everything was very well kept and cleaned. Andrew was very helpful with helping the kids understand what to do, and what not to do. He had a great charisma and made it a fun experience! The kids really enjoyed themselves! Thank you!

Jo
Review №32

This was my first time doing an escape room and I really enjoyed the experience. The room is full of clues and solving the riddles is very satisfying. I also liked that they engage all of your senses - not just sight and touch.. The staging is good too - sets the mood and keeps you engaged in the story. I will be going back.

We did MacGregor Manor and it was a hoot and a half. Andrew was our game master and he was wonderful! Really engaging and fun, he really did an excellent job keeping us laughing and moving forward in the right direction.

Review №37

Our family did this together as a post Christmas adventure and thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience. Our guide Emmi was fabulous! She achieved just the right balance of intrigue, challenge and suspense, without letting us get overly frustrated with the game or each other. Thanks, Emmi. You were great! We strongly recommend this as a fun, stimulating activity for family and friends.

I came as a large group for a birthday party. We did two rooms and had an absolute blast! Andrew was fantastic as a Game Master, explained everything clearly, and did everything he could to ensure we had a fun time. Well definitely be coming back soon!

Review №42

I have gone to probably 4 or 5 other escape room facilities and this have been my favorite thus far. The staff is super friendly and the rooms are awesome!! The story line behind the rooms are creepy and interesting and the puzzles are set at a good difficulty. Some of the rooms also include some jump scares which makes the experience even better! My onyl complaint is that the price is a little higher than most rooms. Regardless, youre paying for a good quality experience.

Review №43

Really unique and awesome rooms. Staff are great and help you as you go if you want it, no limit on hints. They make sure you get out as a winner! The three of us (my parents being beginners) did the motel room which I was told after was the hardest one, and we beat it (with a little help from the staff) but it was so much fun!

Review №45

Its a great place! I came here for my first ever escape room experience, and it was really fun. Our game master, Andrew, was also really nice and an overall chill seeming guy, who was more than willing to help us out if we ever got a little stuck. Id definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to have an escape room experience of their own.

Review №48

We went to the Cary location with our friends on a double date for Valentine’s Day. McGregor manor was challenging, had a good backstory set up, and was a fun puzzle to solve. Andrew was very welcoming an excellent host. Being new to escape rooms, we appreciated both the time he gave us to work on our own, and the well-timed gentle nudges he offered so that we didn’t get too frustrated or lose too much time. We would definitely go back for another round. My only suggestion would be to clean up the hallway and bathroom, as they are old & dingy. The front room and escape room were very presentable, though. Overall we had a blast!

Review №49

The best escape room in town! The puzzles are clever and engaging and rely on a combination of both critical and lateral thinking. The owner is a game developer who is passionate about making exciting new experiences, and Andrew (our game host) is always pleasant and equally committed to making sure you have a wonderful time. #AndrewRocks

We did the rest easy motel escape room and escaped! It was extremely fun when you find a key or finally get a clue to work and move on to the next step. Our game guide was very helpful and entertaining and the overall experience was definitely worth it. If you’re looking for something fun to do for an hour I definitely recommend this.

Review №52

Well after many screams we escaped from the Rest Easy Motel! It was an awesome game that flowed very well with the clues. Being a 6 person room it was perfect for our group and resulted in everyone feeling like they were contributing. Our gamemasters (Malik and Carter) were great and made sure to explain everything well since we had some first time escape room people. The room had a lot of different physical elements that really made the experience more enjoyable. Would definitely come try their other rooms.

Review №54

Ive been to three rooms here so far-- The Jungle, Rest Easy Motel, and the Sorcerers Mistake. The puzzles here are awesome! They have a lot of moving pieces and variety, so you never do the same puzzle twice. The Game Masters are wonderful too! Everybody Ive brought here always appreciates Davids energy :)

Review №55

My friends and I did the MacGregor Manor room and loved it! I have done several escape rooms, but two of my friends had never done one before. Everyone had an awesome time solving the room! The clues were good without giving us too much help. There was an interesting variety in the kind of puzzles to solve. David was a great host, and were already planning to come back soon for another escape!

Fantastic time playing the manor! It was only my boyfriend and I but we escaped with 5:46 left with 2 hints! The room had us captivated the whole hour long; it was emerissive and the aesthetic was on point. Logan was an excellent game master and was great to talk to before and after. Cant wait to take on the jungle next!

We did MacGregor Manor a few days ago with our family (teenagers to grandparents), and had an amazing time! We managed to escape with fifteen minutes to spare. Our game master, Tyler, was so helpful with clues when we needed them, and seemed just as pumped as we were to recap the experience afterward (including congratulating members of the family on which puzzles they solved). The room was hard, but incredibly well done, and the level of thought that went into the puzzles was obvious. Thanks again! We will absolutely be back!

Tyler was an excellent game master! Clues were helpful but not spoonfed answers. Really cool puzzles and a great overall experience. Think 6 players / room is a bit tight and can be challenging to organize with so many “cooks in the kitchen”.

We did the Rescue Hotel room and it was pretty challenging but so much fun! One of the more challenging Escape Room I’ve been to but much more fun than most places.

This was a great escape room! I enjoyed every second of my 60 minutes in the Jungle Room. It was well designed and full of fun twists and turns. I really appreciate the time our game master Sierra who took the time to explain to us everything we needed to know to be prepared for the room. This was my second escape room (first one at Game On) and I felt that Sierra did a better job preparing us for the challenge ahead. Definitely would recommend for a fun weekend, party, or get together. Can’t wait to do it again!

Hands down, best first escape room ever. My best friend and I have been wanting to do an escape room together for a while. This was my first escape room but my friend had already done one before. She did not have a good experience with the previous escape room, in Wilmington, but we LOVED our time at Game On. Sierra, our game master, and Game On Escape room made sure that my friend and I had an excellent time with the escape room. She was very kind and explained things to the fullest so that there were no questions about how to proceed forward. Even though we did not manage to escape I had fun during the entire event and the encouragement she gave us afterward did give me the desire to do another escape room with them. I am looking forward to visiting again!
