    Escaped in time!
    Fironica L.

    Did the "Captive" escape room with my bf the other day and we barely made it out! The owner was nice enough to give us a couple minutes of extra time since we were soooo close at finishing the last puzzle. This was such a hole in the wall but the owner is super enthusiastic and I can tell this is one of his passion. The escape room itself was quite bland, with nothing fancy or crazily decorated. Don't expect a lot of immersion with how it is set up BUT the quality of puzzles and complexity do make up for it. It seemed low budget but there was a lot of thought out behind it. Puzzles were 9/10 challenging with many required some actual physical skills on top of mental skills. It's pretty unique and not something we've seen before. And we've done about 10ish escape rooms together. I would put this as 4/5 in terms of satisfaction but the creativity adds to it. Also it's such a small mom&pop looking place that I would hate for it to go out of business. Come check it out if you're looking for some mental workout!

    NOTE: This review is from 2022. We were in the area for something else and decided to give this…read moreplace a try as our first large-scale escape room. We've been a bit spoiled from going to Rabbit Hole Recreation Services since then :-), but this is certainly one of the better places in Colorado. We did Alcatraz and "Jack's Revenge" (both changed/replaced as of now). Loved the family atmosphere and their heart for the Lord. Positive highlights: 1. Staff were friendly and accommodating. Gamemasters were engaging and told you what you needed to know. 2. Set and props were detailed and immersive (but see critique #1 below). A delight to look at and work with. No music, but neat sound design. Plenty of cool moments and effects, if a little "tamer" than Rabbit Hole. One puzzle in particular kind of blew our minds (think "Wow, are we actually about to do this?). Big props for the technology/engineering. 3. Puzzles were fun and creative! Challenging but achievable overall. (See critique #2 below.) 4. They provide a "grace period" of 15 minutes when you've hit the time limit, which was extremely helpful and allowed us to still finish the game ourselves. This gave a feeling of accomplishment that I actually prefer to Rabbit Hole. (They pace the game well and show you the end if necessary, but it's not quite the same.) 5. They were laid-back in general and fine with pictures and videos inside, as long as you didn't post spoilers. Some small critiques: 1. A few out-of-place props: both rooms included some fake severed limbs or similar bloody parts, some of which we had to interact with for a clue. Not hyperrealistic or extremely gory, but seemed distracting/unnecessary to the story and detracted slightly from the family-friendly vibe. 2. A couple of the puzzles or story elements were a little disconnected or confusing, which I understand now after visiting other top-tier rooms. We just chalked it up to being newbies at the time. Nothing horrible! 3. The gamemaster spoke hints over the speakers, which worked fine, although it broke the immersion a bit. (I personally prefer textual hints integrated into each set, like what Rabbit Hole does.) Also, for the Alcatraz room, we got a small penalty for each hint (losing optional "cigarettes" that determined who could spin the prize wheel at the end). I personally don't prefer that, since I already have to already force myself to ask when I need hints; however some people might appreciate this extra motivation to rely on each other first. 4. Pricing is on the high side with no tiering. (For 4+ people, for instance, Rabbit Hole is actually less.) However, it's still a great place and we were happy to support them. All in all, definitely recommend!

This is a unique experience that is great for friends, or work/organization team buildings. Bridget and Zach were our hosts and they were great! They explained everything really well. We were able to buy some very reasonably priced beer and wine before going in for our 1 hour game. The games themselves were quite fun. It's nice that they have other game options so the experience can look different every time. The only downside is having to pay for all the spots in advance-- understandable, but also challenging if someone cancels last minute. It's about $40/person before gratuity.

The games were already fun but his presence blew up the fun meter. Jordan and staff was 10/10. My coworkers and I attended GSBR as part of our Holiday Party. We drew color chips out of a hat to determine which team we would be on: red or blue. We then were led to a room with two large tables color coordinated and lights simulating a game show. NOTE: They sold drinks at the front and required you to purchase your drinks ahead of time before entering the room. The room had a small fridge to keep them cool. We played survey battle, match up wars, cups (not like you've seen) and more. Our team had a blast, cause we won. The blue team had fun too but wants a rematch. I'm sure we'll back for some redemption rounds.

    My work team and I participated in an Escape Room at EscapeWorks as a team building activity…read more I'm not sure how great of a team building experience it was because we definitely argued the whole time about what the clues meant LOL The theming of the room we did was pretty good. It was the Egyptian Tomb room. Very moody feeling in there with dim lights to give you a little bit of a spooky vibe. There were a lot of fun aspects, like things popping out (we had a screamer in our group so that was hilarious), but we weren't smart enough to figure out the escape plan by the time our clock ran out. The attendant came in and told us how far we had gotten in the puzzle to make our escape and we were nowhere close! We either missed a few clues or this was a harder escape room than others I've done before. I feel like escape rooms overall are kind of going the way of the dodo, but this one was actually pretty fun and had good theming, so I do recommend checking it out for yourself.
