Our escape rooms are designed to be fun, immersive, and family-friendly—no scares or jump scares here! The only room with a slightly eerie vibe is our Murder Mystery, which adds a touch of suspense without being frightening. Whether you're solving puzzles in the Egyptian Pyramid or cracking codes in the Diamond Heist, our rooms are all about teamwork and adventure, not fear.

-
Our skilled Game Masters will guide you through the solutions to any remaining puzzles and answer any questions you have about the room.
-

Can we ask for hints during the game?

Our escape room experiences are tailored to your preferred level of challenge. With a walkie-talkie in hand, you can request as many or as few clues as you need to ensure the perfect balance of fun and difficulty.
-
-
Is physical strength or agility required?
-
Not at all! Our escape rooms are all about the mental challenge. In fact, we have a 'two-finger or five-pound rule' in place: if you can't move it with two fingers or five pounds of force, it's not meant to be used. Everything you need to succeed relies on brainpower, not brawn!
-

Are the rooms handicap accessible?
-
Yes! Three of our rooms are fully accessible for guests with mobility challenges. However, please note that our Murder Mystery room requires navigating a small flight of stairs to access.
-
-
Are we really locked in the room?

No, guests are not locked in the room. The doors remain unlocked at all times in case of a bathroom break or emergency. However, we recommend using the restroom before your experience begins so you don’t miss a second of the action!

Can we book multiple rooms for a large group?

We’re happy to accommodate large groups by splitting them into multiple rooms and time slots!

This setup is perfect for adding a bit of friendly competition or ensuring that everyone has space to fully engage with the game. Contact us in advance by calling us at (513) 889-4628 or filling out the form under our events link in the menu above so we can help plan the best setup for your group!

-
Are phones or cameras allowed during the game?
-
​We kindly ask that you refrain from using cell phones or other devices during your escape room experience. This ensures that everyone stays focused on the game and avoids any spoilers for future players.​

What if someone in my group has claustrophobia?
-
​For those with claustrophobia, most of our rooms are open and spacious enough that it shouldn't be an issue. However, our Lost Pyramid room does include some tighter, more confined spaces that could be uncomfortable for some guests. If you’re concerned, feel free to reach out, and we’ll help you choose the best room for your comfort!​
