Great experience for our extended family and friends! First time for all of us at a escape room. We are now trained and will be back!Taylor was very helpful at explaining before hand and during with clues.Our consensus as a group was that we should have asked for clues earlier. We hope to come back and try the new rooms.I think I want Taylors job, because it must be very interesting to watch everybody milling around the room trying to solve the puzzles.

My family and I had so much fun! We would definitely visit Escape 812 again - we are already talking about doing just that. They have some very cool sounding rooms coming soon.

This was my first time in an escape room. My coworkers and I went as a team building exercise. It was so much fun! We were all ready bbn to do another as soon as we finished the first!

I did Lottery Lost with a group of friends. It was very challenging, and you really have to think creatively for some of the clues, but we successfully finished in under an hour. It was loads of fun and is a great place to go if you’re looking for a group activity to do.

The Dr. Evilquirk room was a great way to spend an hour with my team from work. Well organized and plenty challenging. Had a great time!

This place was so much fun!! I honestly recommend it if you have a group of friends and want to try something new out. The room I did was supposedly one of the easier ones but still proved very difficult. We had a blast the entire time. And it gave us such a good feeling after we beat the room with a whole 5 seconds to spare!!

Extremely fun and addictive. Cant wait for my next visit. Everything from the online booking, to the orientation (brief), to the escape room was painless and fun. Totally worth the experience!

1st time doing this and we actually got through thanks to theothers that joined us, we would have failed if it was just the 2 of us. Definitely go in a group.

The LabIt was fun but frustrating.Suggestion for Escape812:I would like to suggest that you put in a speaker in BOTH rooms. We didnt even know you were giving us clues at first because we had the door between the rooms closed. Very hard to hear the speaker. Second; it was too dark to see your clues in the upper box. We looked up there several times, but couldnt see anything. We wasted a lot of time even though we were using the mirror correctly. Other than that, it was a well thought out escape room.Lost Lottery TicketVery cool room.I have a suggestion; Put some clear tape over the ultraviolet ink on the chips. We couldnt make out what they said because the ink was smudged. Write if very clearly, let it dry, put clear tape to protect, and then trim the tape to conceal that it is there.The sign pointing to the vent was a bit of a stretch, but I dont have a suggestion for that...I liked the use of fake clues. Like inside the hollow book in the lab, This is not a clue but it sure is fun

Dr Evilquirk outsmarted us. This room is one of the harder escape rooms I’ve been in and requires some experience to get out. Still fun and well themed if you don’t get out so don’t hesitate to try! Fairly priced and would love a third room at this place!

It was fun! Regardless of the time you take to finish and escape, it is a lot of fun. Went to Find Grannys lottery ticket. Finishes in 1 hour 2 minutes.

I have vast experience with escape rooms and this room was incredibly well done. The puzzles were challenging but not impossible. I was very impressed with this room and cant wait to do another one!

The room was tough but really fun! We almost escaped. Excited to try the new room. We also did Escape Columbus and that was cool. I hope they do it again in the future. The free Garage lunch was an unexpected perk too!

Room is very cool (evil lab), certainly difficult, but a lot of fun (we failed in the end). From what I gather this is a local couple who do this, we had the wife who was great. Theyll help you along but wont give everything away, you gotta work for it. They should add the new room!

Took my husbad and our two 15yr old daughters here tonight. It was our first time doing an escape room and it was amazing. We was paired with another group which was fine but you do have an option when booking online to make it a private group. The pricing was very reasonable for how much time you spend there and what you do. A husband and wife own this business and they are very nice and helpful the whole time. We will be definitely be going back. And the owner did let us know they are going to be adding a new room soon with a new theme!!

Escapemaster had a moderate issue getting the keys to get in the building. Not going to take points off for that. Now, not going to spoil anything, but Experiment Lab had a very high potential to do stuff Out of Sequence and thus information youve gathered can mean nothing if youve done it out of the sequence. There was even a puzzle the escapemaster said, and I quote Was a timewaster

Points for being different then other escape rooms in how you tackle multiple puzzles at once. But probably the most difficult one Ive done. The success rate is around 46%. Its not helped by equipment that struggles to unlock even when youre correct in lock combinations or lights with dying batteries. Kinda spoiled or day.Clean, though, add the owner is clearly having fun.

Very creative room, the puzzles were very well themed, difficult enough that it was time well spent, but not so hard that it wasnt fun. Staff was very friendly. I would recommend this to a friend.
