The puzzles were varied and the rooms were meticulously arranged so that everything mattered if you could just figure out how and why. They gave us just enough hints to help us not stay stuck but only when we asked for them (be sure to let them know to only offer hints when asked if you want that). (Hint: Look for their dedicated entrance with a sign since it's an otherwise nondescript office building.) Sadly we didn't finish but it was still a lot of fun anyway. Highly recommended.

Such a great time at this Escape Room!…read more I went with two of my best friends and we did "Abducted: Escape from the Madman". This is where you are abducted and you wake up in a stranger's closet, which you have to escape from! I thought the storyline was awesome and our Puzzle Master (not sure that is the correct name but the person that gives you clues when you are stuck!) was great. She knew exactly when to give us clues especially when we were so close to finding the answer. I thought this multi-room escape room was awesome and challenging. We managed to get out with 2 minutes to spare and will definitely check out some of their other Escape Rooms if I am ever back in the area. Also, the place is a little tricky to find as its in an industrial area so just keep circling and you will find it!

Escapology Escape Rooms Haunted House Review: Haunts and…read moreHorror Reviews We were able to play the newest Escape Room at Escapology in Danbury, CT called Haunted House. This one has a backstory and atmosphere that is darker and more ominous than a basic scary mansion theme. It is an immersive experience of being in an old house that is haunted and tormented by evil spirits and the tragic end of the family that lived there. It packs a lot in a small space with some jump scares and it is probably best for a group of 4 to 6 people. Some of the puzzles can be challenging so it's good to have help. The final stages of the game really elevate the experience as your time ticks down and urgency increases. The tasks to be solved become more sinister in nature but also were the most fun part. The detail and atmosphere really put this one over the top. Highly recommended if you enjoy spookier types of games and experiences.

We are scheduled to attempt two of the three rooms that they currently offer. The facility is located inside of an office building on the main floor. Once you enter the lobby there's a large waiting area w/disposable cameras & water bottles for purchase. The first room that we decided to try is their most advanced one "A Broken Mind: Psych 102". The room starts off divided into 2 groups. Obviously, teamwork is extremely important in order to help each other out. This room had a little bit of technology implemented and it was utilized cleverly. The decor complemented the theme very well and the puzzles stuck to the storyline the whole time. Normally the suggested amount of people is four, but the two of us managed to escaped with 3 minutes and 42 seconds remaining. The next room we are scheduled for is "Last Resort"."Last Resort" is classified as an intermediate room. The minute that you we stepped inside "Last Resort", we noticed a lot of upgrades in the decor and the design. We felt immediately drawn into the storyline from beginning to end. There were some locks and technological puzzles that we've haven't seen before which made the experience all the more interesting. Overall, Panic Room CT delivered great customer service and we can tell that they are constantly stepping their game up! We can't wait to try their new games in the future! *For more info, check out my Yelp profile.

I came to visit my family in CT for the week and we decided to do an escape room for old times…read moresake. We went to the Stamford CT location with high hopes and our thinking caps on. We chose Biohazard because it has a higher difficulty and we can usually "escape the room". The room wasn't 100% ready when we arrived.. some locks were undone, there was no paper for us to write on.. bottom line, things were missing. There were too many locks and not enough story line. The four of us were minutes away from escaping but ultimately didn't make it out. The guy running the place.. think his name is Matt, was kind of abrupt once our time was up. Felt like we were rushed out. There were TWO more puzzles we had to solve and it's not like there was a line of people waiting to get in.. it would have been cool if he let us finish the last couple things. The room has potential but overall, we found it disappointing.

He was down to earth and took time to get to know us. The lobby was decorated nicely (but not crazy). After signing our forms and getting a briefing, we received a story about the room and were placed into a very cool bio lab. From there on, the room was DIFFICULT. We had 4 players altogether and it was tough! We were one puzzle away from winning the game but our time ran out! Definitely don't overthink everything which you can easily do. I'm we had a blast and can't wait to come back!

We have a team of 3 and escaped the Biohazard Room with ~11 minutes to spare. WHAT WE LOVED: The room was engaging and high quality. I personally love a room that is immersive and this room made me feel like I was THERE. The story was consistent and generally logical. There was a good amount of puzzles and they were challenging/satisfying! Oh and Christian was an absolute GEM! WHAT SETS IT APART: One of our members had a different starting place and our first mission was to get her out. Unfortunately for us, we picked the smartest one so it probably took us a bit longer than it should have... it was still different and fun! BONES TO PICK: Our person that was separated felt a little helpless and wished there was more she could do while the others flailed trying to release her. She wasn't sitting there twiddling her thumbs but she couldn't do as much as she would have wanted to. Also, this is minor but we aren't used to having to use an item more than once after its helped solve a different puzzle. For Veterans, just make sure you throw the "one and done" rule away. OVERALL: a great experience and fun for both beginners and seasoned veterans! We will go again in the future especially once the other rooms are updated!

They are located on the second floor to the right, just follow the signs. The staff was very friendly, and even offered to take a picture of us at the end. A few different rooms available, we chose patient number three. It was close to an hour of fun and got us to use some critical thinking skills. They honored a coupon code from almost 4 years ago when I had to cancel a party due to Covid. It took a few minutes to find, but there were no issues when the code was found in their database. Will definitely come back to try another room.

We had a special event and the website mentioned they can do something special for special events if you contact them, but my attempts at contacting them were fruitless. Just in case you are unsure of where to go, the escape room business is on the second floor. We played the Clue room. Given the price being so low, it was a solid room with a fun theme. That said, there were puzzles you could just brute-force your way through if you wanted to, and the clues from the game-master we needed were mostly not clues but help because a certain piece of the room didn't work from a technical perspective. Unlike at other escape rooms, the game-masters are definitely not paying any attention to what you're doing in the room unless you call on a walkie-talkie for a clue, at which point you have to explain to them what you're doing.

We originally booked one of the rooms but on the way called up and asked if we could switch to the other. Since they had no one coming in after us they had no issue allowing it which was nice. We did the Zodiac Killer. It was an alright room but was all manual locks and puzzles, nothing electronic or anything. A fair escape room, but certainly not as good as the three puzzles we've done at the other two locations.
