An amazing experience. You can tell they really love what they do there. Did the assassins lair and loved it. Troy is my dawg now. He loves his job. And he made it amazing. 11/10 plan on going in the future

Great time for the girls!! Just enough hints for younger players but not enough to make it too easy!

So much fun for everyone!!!! I recommend the Paradise room because it was just amazing!!! The staff is really nice! There are two rooms in each escape room. Plus, each room has an interlocking story! It’s so much fun to discover things! (In the paradise room, we got the highest score with the least amount of help) not to brag or anything!

The HC Remodel and Design Team had a great experience at the Cryptic Room! The experience was challenging and engaging! We had the exact right amount of help to keep us moving while letting us struggle through and figure things out. Definitely recommend!!!

Me and my friends came here and did the Assassins Lair. It was Awesome! Very fun. I loved finding clues and Troy, the owner, was very nice and friendly. You definitelty know you are going to get a good experience with him.

This was our 1st experience with an Escape Room and Thanks to The Cryptic Room it will most definitely not be our last. We are already looking forward to coming back and doing another room. All 5 of their rooms have an interconnected story that we cant wait to see what happens next. Even though this was my 1st time trying an escape room, The Cryptic Room is definitely the best escape room Ive ever tried.

Great place! My boy Troy is a G. The room was amazing and I definitely recommend trying this place if you’re near by. Assassins lair was very fun.

Lived in this community my entire life so far and went there last Saturday, and brought my wife, three kids and two of their friends. It was the first time any of us had tried an escape room. We had a great time, the place was very cool and I the staff was amazing. Troy that worked there was wonderful in helping us and explaining how it worked. Would highly recommend this place. Proud that we have something like this in the Council Bluffs Community.

Probably my favorite escape room joint. Great staff, very friendly and inviting place! The room stories are very interesting. The rooms are a lot of fun, theyre varied in difficulty, aesthetic, theme and challenges. Check it out!

Absolutely great experience!! Really fun escape room with 5 different rooms varying in theme and difficulty! The owner was very friendly and accommodating! I highly recommend this escape room for everyone! Bring your friends, family, and coworkers for a fun team building experience!!

Amazing experience! The guy was really passionate about the escape rooms. Very quality content.

Had an amazing time. The host was super friendly and the room was very realistic. Worth going to again!

The service and the rooms were amazing this man really enjoys what he does and that is much appreciated. Thanks for a great time Troy.

We did The Cave of Lost Souls and it was so much fun! It was the perfect difficulty level for the two of us and we will be back again!!

Very impressive! The rooms are well thought out and very enjoyable even for experienced escapers. You can tell the owner takes pride in his work. Highly recommended for all skill levels.

This place rocks! We have loved the stories that go into these rooms. They are very well planned out with some nice surprises.

Great escape room, good puzzles to solve, and the people are very friendly

This was the most fun I have had at any escape room. We will DEFINITELY be back! We had a group of 9! We were all trucking away at this room! Very involved, extremely intuitive, sooo underrated. I LOVE this place

Our family decided to do an escape room at The Cryptic Room in CB as many of us were in town for the holidays. We had 10 people, and only 2 had done an escape room before. We had a fantastic time at The Cryptic Room! The staff was helpful in introducing the newbies on what to expect, but also made sure everyone had a challenging, yet very fun, experience. After we escaped our room, they allowed us to take a group photo—at no cost. They also gave us a tour of their other rooms that we hadn’t seen. All the rooms look so fun and are very creative! We all plan to come back and try them out in the future! This was such a wonderful experience for us all, and was something we could do as a family with different generations. Thank you to the staff at The Cryptic Room for ensuring we had an unforgettable and amazing time as a family! We will be back again :)

Enjoyed our time here. Game was fun, engaging, and difficult enough to feel challenged without getting frustrated. The staff was polite and attentive. The atmosphere was pleasant and inviting. Overall I would definitely recommend.

We had such a great time here. This was our second escape room experience (we had done one with a different company before). We did Aunt Myrtles Room and it was so much fun we just barely made it out in time. So many different clues, puzzles and locks. It was so much fun. They are awesome game Masters and will sometimes give you unsolicited advice. Which is good because sometimes you get to hung up on something that isnt important. We also found out all of their rooms have a connect story because to quote them we (they) are nerds. And lets be honest nerds make the best game Masters. I cant wait to try the other rooms and learn about the connected story. I highly recommend them. Their stories are great and the clues are hard but not impossible to figure out.

Went through the cave of lost souls and it was very well decorated and well thought out. The staff are very friendly and helpful with their little nudges. For example, we triggered an action and hadnt realized it till they simply said look up. It was my first one ever and I had a ton of fun with it.

So much fun! Absolutely love it!!

Had an amazing time last night at The Cryptic Room. We have done a few different escape rooms, in a few different cities and this place is one of the best ones hands down. From the time we walked in, until the time we escaped, we truly enjoyed ourselves. Staff was friendly, informative and did a great job explaning tips, tricks and rules. We will be back and we will definitely tell our friends and family to come too!!!Book here, you will not be disappointed.

We had a blast here. Perfect for young kids to adults. Very friendly staff and great clues! It was challenging but a ton of fun. We made it out with a minute to spare! Highly recommend!

The Cryptic Room was by far one of my favorite escape room experiences that I have encountered so far. The room was a great balance between challenge and fun, with never a dull moment. The storyline that connects all of the rooms together is intriguing and has me wanting to experience them all. Along with that the staff was very friendly and welcoming. The gamemaster was diligent about giving helpful nudges and hints when they were needed in order to fully experience the room. Overall I will be telling my friends and family about my experience and I will definitely be going back!

This place is awesome!! If you are looking for a great escape room this is it! The owners Troy and Angel are so helpful and down to earth! They are so friendly and since we were not that familiar with escape rooms, they gave us some advice and some background which was super helpful! They took the time to explain to us how it all works and gave us a tour of the rooms! I would recommend this to anyone even if you have never thought about doing it! You will have so much fun here! We will definitely be back to do the other rooms!!

So much fun! Very detailed and plenty of clues for everyone in our group to find!

This place was really awesome! Super friendly staff, and it was a really fun and cool idea for our friends! I definitely recommend people try this out. The rooms are not as easy as you think.

Great time, great staff and owners! We will definitely be back!

Great fun and a great place.

It was cool, have to keep focus and pay attention to the clues.

We had my sons birthday party here and it was so fun! The room was challenging and the premise was interesting. The owners were so friendly and helpful, the prices were reasonable, and the decor was amazing. We will definitely go again!

Had an absolute BLAST. Budget friendly and very challenging without being impossible. The guide gave little nudges here and there without giving away clues, really helped keep you going without sacrificing the challeng.

My wife and I recently took some family and friends to The Cryptic Room during a visit to Council Bluffs.We did the C.O.R.E. Intruders scenario, and I cant say enough good things about it. Theres a nice variety of puzzles to solve, and a few that were completely unlike Ive seen in any of the other escape rooms Ive done. I thought the whole scenario was very well planned and executed !This particular scenario involves some outside help of a friendly hacker, and a very nice twist involving the players actively avoiding detection, both of which added to the fun. (Both of these are in the description of the scenario so Im not giving away any surprises here)A very nice touch was a video shown beforehand that covered some things to help players in the game, including how various types of locks work, and likely interactions with objects in the game room (e.g. , you wont need to move large, heavy furniture to advance in the game, or disassemble things unless explicitly given tools to do so)Overall, A+ ! Go check this place out; youll have a good time.

We enjoyed our time at the cryptic room! He was very friendly and gave us a tour! I would definitely go here again and it is worth the drive from Omaha!

Fun times. Staff was curtious and polite. Fun was had by the whole family

This was such an amazing experience. Its only $25 per person instead of $100 no matter how many people which made it a great cheaper idea for a couple or a few friends. I would have never made it thru Aunt Myrtles without hints and clues. This was a very well thought out room. Cant wait to go back and figure out how Aunt Myrtle died and who Mr. X is. Totally worth every penny. Thanks to the staff at Cryptic Room.

I went to this escape room for the first time with 4 other friends last weekend. The building is pretty cool and easy to find. The owners are super friendly and helpful. The rules are pretty lax (i.e. leaving the room to go to the bathroom), which I saw as a positive. The only down side was that the room itself was a little dirty and it was hotter than heck in there -- we were all sweating at the end. The room was really interesting and fun to solve. We loved it and would 100% be back -- but we may wait for a cooler evening!

We spent the evening at the Cryptic Room last night, there were 10 of us. We had an absolute blast! Only a few in our group had done this before. I received this from a Cancer Benefit Silent Auction and thankful that I got it! After we made it out of the room, we had drinks and appetizers provided. Troy was very professional and we are confident that they laughed at us behind the cameras. Definitely going to do this again! Great Job The Cryptic Room!

This is great entertainment. I loved the way the room was set up to include everyone from the novice beginner to the returning champs.

So fun! This was the first escape room for any of our party, and it was much more fun than we even anticipated. We will definitely be back! Thanks so much, guys!

Awesome time. Took my 17yr old son and buddies for his bday. Between this and ax throwing they said they enjoyed this more! So 2 thumbs way up

This place is so much fun and the people there are awesome! We will definitely be going back to do the other rooms.

Very nice owners had a great time with my family just overall great experience

Fun place to go with friends and famliy.the owners are great people.

I went with 2 of my friends and we all had a wonderful time. We will for sure be coming back to go thru the other rooms they have.

Super fun, the fact that you can do each room privately makes it so much more appealing.

Amazing and very fun place to go.

So much fun. A group of teachers and I did the cave room for a grad class I was taking through Learners Edge. Great class and great place to visit and try! We made it out in 44 minutes btw!

Had a great experience here with the family. Amazing stories with terrific customer service. We will have another family outing here for sure!

Tons of fun!!

Fun and challenging!

Our family enjoyed a fun afternoon at the Cryptic room looking for Aunt Myrtles will. It was our first time at an escape room so we werent sure what to expect but the staff was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely go back and recommend it to our friends and family.

Very fun and a good challenge. Great for date night and birthdays.

Had a lot of fun;)

This place is amazing! We had a great time working the room. The owners are super fun and friendly, we have already booked another adventure!! Highly recommended you go play.

We did the cave and it was fun! We had to have some nudges but avoided using the hint button. Kept us hopping the whole time. We would definitely do another room!

Different than any service Ive encountered. Employees are so very nice! Explained what it was. Id recommend this place to anyone. Its something to actually do in this town.

Solving the room was challenging and fun. The people working there are friendly and fun!

Amazing!! Tons of fun. Lots of action. See if you can solve the puzzle before the time is up!

Clues were somewhat doable, not impossible

Great fun, great people running it...will be back!

Great way to past by time. I would tell eveyone they have to try .

Liked it, great staff, fun experience.

We had a great time and enjoyed the challenge.

I would definitely recommend the cryptic room to everyone. We have been to a few of these this was by far our favorite.

So fun and chalenging best place ever for family fun.

My son and his friends loved it!!

Did the C.O.R.E. Intruders room and had an amazing time with my Family.
