Ive done about 15 escape rooms across the state and Mission Escapes is by far the BEST in all of Colorado! Both the Treasure Hunt and Lunar Escape were perfectly handcrafted. James puts a lot of thought and planning into the puzzles to make sure they flow nicely and players do not get confused. The rooms are the perfect level of challenging, but not impossible. I will definitely be back when they expand!

We had a great time doing treasure hunt! It was a great family experience! We did it with our 3 kids (10,8,7). They were able to pitch in and enjoy the whole experience too!

This place was awesome! We did the Lunar Escape with 7 people and it was great! Challenging but in a good way. I recommend it. It seems like a lot of effort and details went into the set up. Look forward to returning!

We were just visiting the area and love escape games, so I did research based on what was close to my hotel. Mission Escape (Treasure Hunt) seemed like the best fit for us, because there are only 2 of us and we dont like to play with other people. Being able to book a private room (without paying for 8-12 slots) is our top requirement. James was so friendly and got us in early. We really enjoyed all the puzzles with no need for a grand theme. We escaped, and had a lot of fun doing it! Thanks James!

Really enjoyed these rooms. Very well put together and interesting. We’ve done escape rooms all over and these rate high on our list. Definitely recommend!

The best choice weve made for our first escape experience. So we went back for another game. Lunar Escape was a little too difficult for me, but with my teammates(smarter than me) and some hints(depending on whether you want it or not), we finally escaped. Perfect for birthday parties, and James is very welcoming and professional. Waiting for his other rooms to open!

My first escape room ever and I am definitely coming back. The steps were very well thought out and responsive, so the team was never confused as to what to look for next. The operator was nice the rooms were really well set-up. I really recommend coming here for a little fun.

We are in Denver for a wedding and wanted to do an escape room as we do escape rooms frequently at home. We stumbled upon mission escapes as it was close to our hotel. We did the treasure hunt room first and had a blast! There are lots of puzzles to solve and such a great variety! After completing that room and being impressed with the quality, we decided to come back to do lunar escape. This room was so impressive! James advised he will be moving to a larger location with new rooms so and we will definitely come back to Denver to challenge ourselves more!

Me and three friends did the Lunar Escape room for my birthday. For all but one of us, it was our first escape room experience. We all had a great time, and it felt like we were all able to contribute different logical skills because the puzzles were nice and varied. I think were all keen to come back and try the other room!

Review №12

It was a lot of fun! We went with a group of friends and we had a couple of seconds to go before the time went out. Then I successfully got the key to open the door! I would definitely recommend this place. The man who attended us was so sweet, it was amazing.

Our family does an annual escape room when get together during the holidays. We have some talented puzzle solvers in our group so we solved it pretty quickly. We still had 27 minutes left on the clock when we escaped from the lunar one. Even so, it was a great experience and our group enjoyed the mechanics of the puzzles and we felt it was overall well done.

Great family entertainment!! Puzzles are really creative and this escape room is much better than the other ones weve been to. Definitely try the Lunar escape! Amazing customer service and even more amazing experience. Worth every penny! Looking forward to trying treasure hunt next time.

I was so impressed and pleasantly surprised with this design! Having done around 20 escape rooms all over the country, I can say hands down Lunar Escape has been my favorite. This was so cleverly designed and well thought out, we debated staying longer to do the other room in the same day! Im very excited to return and cant wait to see what other rooms will be offered in the future! WELL DONE MISSION ESCAPE!!

Scheduled an escape room to celebrate a friends birthday. Website was easy to use, and price was very clear. The place was easy to find, and the staff was super friendly. Puzzles were fun to work through, and overall, we all had a great time!

Review №19

Just finished the treasure hunt! So amazing, the young man running the show today was friendly, welcoming, and very professional! The layout was amazing and not enough can be said about the puzzles. Everything was original and mind blowing. Every solve had an immense sense of accomplishment and made you want more. Whoever designed the puzzles is a genius, a lot of time went into the processes and is executed very well. I will absolutely be back to try the other rooms!And thank you guys so much for providing such a high quality escape room here in Aurora!!EDIT: We just completed our second escape room here. Its hard to describe how much fun this place is. HANDS DOWN BEST ESCAPE ROOM EXPERIENCE IN COLORADO. Thanks again for such an amazing time, I hope all the best to Mission Escapes and am REALLY hoping to see them expand in the future!!

We completed Treasure Hunt today and holy smokes! So much fun! We highly recommend it. We will be coming back to try out Lunar Escape for SURE.

Review №21

Having done escape rooms all over the United States, this is definitely on the top of the list. The room quality and puzzle solving are brilliant. The rooms immerse you in the theme and keep you racing against the clock. Currently ME has two rooms and I can not wait for new room designs from them. I would highly recommend Mission Escape rooms to any one(beginner to advanced) interested in escape rooms.

Wi
Review №22

We have done both of the rooms at Mission Escape and they are both excellent. We do a lot of rooms and these are 2 of the best. Great use of technology/electronics, while still using plenty of good old fashioned locks. We will certainly be back when they open a new room.

We had such a great time doing the treasure hunt! We managed to escape with 16 seconds left! Very impressed with the thought of this escape room and I would highly recommend it. We had a group of three people and it was a perfect size for that room in particular.

We escaped a few nights ago for my wifes birthday. We made it out of the Lunar Escape with six people, no hints, and 11 minutes left on the clock. We all had a great time. There are currently 2 escape rooms, but they will be moving to a larger location soon with more rooms. Try these rooms before its too late!

Review №31

We came here for my daughters birthday and were very impressed by the Lunar Escape. The room was very well laid out and impressively technical (not just props from Ikea with combination puzzles). The walkie talkie system that puts the onus on the player to ask for hints was really nice as well. We will definitely be back to try the Treasure Hunt!

Review №32

If you are looking for a fun thing to do before you leave Colorado, make a reservation here! Or for a fun night out for friends if you are local. We solved the room with only 5 seconds to spare. We did have to use a couple of hints, but the game was not so complicated that we were totally stumped. This was extremely well thought out and it was very fun. An A plus in my book!!

Review №34

It was my first time ever doing an escape room. I went with four other coworkers who also never have done an escape room. We all had so much fun! We escaped from Treasure Hunt and we are all planning another escape room at the same location. The staff was amazing we were greeted by a tall younger looking man with glasses who was so helpful with hints and so polite!! Wish I could rate this place a 10/10!

We are the owners of Mystic Escape Room in Littleton and we took our team to Mission Escapes and played their Lunar game. We all had such a great time. Great game, great puzzles, great props. James is amazing! Definitely going back to play the other game soon. Must see! Book yours today!

The treasure hunt room was fabulous! This was our 15th room and one of our favorites. Great mix of puzzles, challenging, but not frustrating. My husband and I made it out with 15 minutes to spare, but our adrenaline was pumping at the end!!!! UPDATE: We did the lunar room today and its even better! Highly recommend!

Review №49

The only complaint i have is that this location only has two rooms. The rooms are amazing I have done over 200 rooms my self and this locations rooms are some of the best Ive played. Thankfully the owner said that they are moving to a bigger location to do more rooms, I will be on the lookout for when they do.

Legitimately two of the best escape rooms ive ever done. flying in from california with friends and decided wed try some escape rooms. our flight was delayed and they were very understanding and rescheduled us for the next day. we did both rooms back to back and were blown away, having done about 20 rooms already. 100% recommend to anyone who enjoys escape rooms. looking forward to new rooms from here!

Excellent escape room! We did the lunar escape and felt that it was really dialed in as far as being challenging but possible to progress through. Also, it had some nice design elements. We would highly recommend it!

Review №53

We are new to the escape room experience, Mission Escapes was our second escape room we have done and it was excellent! We did the Lunar Escape, the puzzles were great and kept our crew of 6 engaged throughout the entire experience. The use of technology was fantastic and elevated our journey to the next level! We made it out without a hint and 13 minutes and 48 seconds left on the timer. We are definitely going to return for the Treasure Hunt escape room!

Summary: A solid escape room experience which was fun and exciting!This was the first experience that I and a number of those in my party had with an escape room and it was great! It was fun, exciting and mysterious. Very well put together, fun, exciting and entertaining for everyone! We will certainly return to this location to try the other room!I highly recommend giving this escape room experience a go!

Review №59

I can’t believe I never wrote this review earlier, but a sour experience with a different company reminded me to prop up the businesses I believe in. Mission Escapes is stellar! I’ve done about 20 rooms across 3 countries and I gotta say the two I did here are among some of the most well thought out and clever rooms I’ve seen. The computerized technology isn’t overdone, and it’s used in exciting ways. James is a fantastic person, very lovely to work with as well as being incredibly accommodating. I just wish he’d hurry up and make more rooms because I’d go again in a heartbeat!! What a shame you can really only do each room once. The lunar escape was so clever and had the most fun surprise I’ve ever experienced in an escape room. The treasure hunt gave us lots of “ohhhh” moments, plus a heart-pumping finish as we exited with only 8 seconds to spare! There’s tons of escape rooms in Denver, and having done several I know that there’s more than one great option (and too many thatcher meh), but please make sure you put Mission Escapes on your shortlist because they are among the greats in this city.

My first time doing an Escape Room and really enjoyed it. Definitely have to work together and I was with 4 couples and was a great time! Very impressed as I wasnt sure what to expect! Our group is planning on going to back to do his other room! Highly recommend!

Review №61

I have done dozens of escape rooms and really enjoyed both The Treasure Hunt and The Lunar Escape rooms. The puzzles were great and we appreciated that there were no frivolous props or red herrings. The rooms had some awesome special effects and all locks and devices worked properly. Definitely do these rooms with a group of 4 or more. We had 6 people and there were times when all of us were working on different things and there are some physical challenges of the room that make having more participants beneficial. Would highly recommend and will go back if new rooms are introduced!

Absolutely awesome escape rooms! Me and my family have done both treasure hunt and lunar escape. The design of these is great and they flow really well. Unlimited clues and an awesome clue master who gives you juuuust enough to figure out what you’re stuck on without straight up giving you the answer. Awesome surprises in these rooms! Definitely among the best escape rooms in the Denver area.

My family and I did the treasure hunt room and it was AMAZING! James was super friendly and helpful. The room was filled with fun unique puzzles and right when you thought it was over another huge surprise happened, but I won’t spoil that part. It was a fun time for all age ranges. James was so nice and let us finish the puzzle even though the timer went off because we were so close to finishing.10/10. We will for sure be coming back for the other room!! Thanks!

Top tier escape rooms. I have participated in over 20 escape rooms and Lunar escape was by far my favorite! Their other room, treasure hunt, was also super fun and creative, but Lunar Escape takes the cake. It is truly unlike any other escape room experience and I would highly reccomend to anyone looking for a quality day out!

Review №75

I found that booking a room was very easy! I was a little disappointed to see only two room options at first, but after having done the Lunar escape room I find that they did very well in focusing on the quality of the room rather than throwing as many rooms as they can out. The room had many interaction points and really had us thinking, but we were able to escape! Ive done about 6 other escape rooms, this is the first time I visited this place and Id have to say that it was my favorite so far!

Mission Escapes has the best Escape Rooms in Colorado. I have been to a lot and these are easily a cut above any rooms I have been to. James is awesome and a great host. Both of his rooms are high tech, creative, puzzling and super fun with the perfect amount of challenge. I would recommend these to anyone without a doubt. You are missing out if you go somewhere else.

Awesome experience and fun time with family!!! Tried Treasure Hunt first as a family of 4. Have two sons, 9 and 12, middle schooler was raving about it since we found what we were told and escaped the room. had to come back and tried for the lunar room. Absolutely stunning but little challenging with kids but we had so much fun trying to gather information to solve the puzzle. Most importantly, you work as a team! Great team building!

Review №85

Me and my family did the treasure hunt and I thought it would be simple but it turned out being very intricate and lots of fun. We barely completed the room and loved the complexity and twists and turns. You really have to bring your problem solving game and we left feeling like we did something special. It was great for families but like 4-6 adults would have a wonderful time too. Look forward to doing the other room that they have here.

The Lunar Escape was a great experience. I’ve done quite a few puzzle rooms and this had a number of unique and custom-made elements to bring another dimension to the puzzle. With three people it was challenging yet doable; we completed with a few minutes left on the clock. It’s clear a lot of thought went into making each challenge. Absolutely worth a visit.

We have done both rooms and they were both excellent although Lunar Escapes is our favorite by far. The puzzles are more innovative and varied than we found in some other escape rooms. The games are private and appropriate for tweens upwards, as well as adults. The owner is talented and hardworking. He hopes to open another room next year and we can hardly wait!

Mission escapes is such a fun place even if it only has two puzzles. My family and I did both puzzles and they are both so much fun, they are difficult and it takes teamwork to figure them out, all and all it’s epic and you should visit, five out of five stars.
