This is the second escape room I've done in town and this one is my favorite so far. The room we…read moredid was spy themed, which was super fun and the props and clues all went well with the theme. This was one element that was done better here than the other room I've done elsewhere. The room was $25 per person, which I prefer to having a flat fee for the entire room, and you are always in a private room with just your group (whereas some places will fill the whole room with additional people). The value for the cost is well worth it, due to some elements of the room. I can't go into much more detail than that so I don't give anything away! Your guide is not in the room with you, which was also a difference from the other escape room I've done. It was fun to have the clues on the screen. You get unlimited clues, and all were very helpful. We had a group of six people and we were just getting the door open as time ran out. It was exhilarating, challenging but not frustratingly so, and really well done. I will definitely go back to do the other room and they were working on a third room as well.

We had 4 doctors, a nurse and a teacher in our group, so we thought we would surely get through with no help with that much education in one room. 6 hints later and 50 secs to spare, we made it. We laughed a ton and thought the hour went by extremely fast. Two things that are nice about this place are that you don't share the room with other parties and the game master isn't in the room with you! Can't wait to go back and try the other room.

The staff member was incredibly rude and would bark at us if we touched the wrong item.

The stand up games are the more robust fight games or sports. Sit down is more relaxed type games. They have about a dozen games for both. These are the considerably higher end models. Most of the games are very imersive. I found my hour flew by. The only negatives are it's not cheap, $30 for an hour. They do have memberships. Also not great for people with glasses. Your face will get hot and your glasses will get foggy. Overall a solid 4 stars. Would I return? Yes I would.

Escapes rooms are something we do as a family and I'd say we are experienced. We get out of most…read moreof the rooms we try and usually aim to use very few clues if we can. Being that they had a room called The Cabin that was being discontinued we chose it since we are in the area usually a couple of times a year and are often looking for another room to play. Being a cabin theme we weren't sure it was going to be much different than so many of the other cabin rooms we have done before but we decided to give it a try anyway. Gameplay was good and made sense which is super important to us. We have so much more fun when we understand the puzzles and they work. We did use a couple of clues to help us along and made it out with a descent amount of time left. There was a good number and variety of puzzles and clues and we felt accomplished when we finished. The young man who was our game master did a good job paying attention to where we were in gameplay and knew what we needed when we asked for clues which made the experience better than some others we've had elsewhere. I think he said they have only been open for around 6 months. We look forward to visiting again when we are back in the area. Check them out!

Out of the Box has any toy /game /puzzle /book you could ever dream of, it's honestly SO astounding! Towards the back of the store is their collection of puzzles, and even though we've made our way out of complete quarantine (shoutout to all the puzzles we did last spring), that doesn't mean puzzles should go out of style!! They even have puzzles that are pictures of local spots and attractions like the Big Red Lighthouse in Holland!
