Overall this escape room was an awesome first escape room experience. It started with Jacob, who…read moredid a great job acting and setting the scene for the Wild Wild West adventure. So good, in fact, that I kind of thought he was actually drunk instead of just pretending. But, he wasn't. He was very funny, helpful, and definitely added to the experience we had. The adventure itself was challenging, but not too challenging. We got out with 8 minutes to spare and felt that all of the clues made sense and ultimately led to our success. I was surprised by the cleverness of the clues and just how much fun we had overall discovering the clues. I would definitely visit this escape room again despite the slightly creepy location (it's in the basement of a weird office building.)

We had a really fun time here on a date. Our host was funny and set the stage for us. We were in…read morethe "Back to the 90's" room which was appropriately setup to match the theme. The music choices were especially fun. We came as a couple and were then together with a group of 6 that seemed to have done this sort of thing several times before and so we took a few minutes to get into a groove with the rest of the team. Once things got going though, we had a really good time. Our team got out with 4 minutes to spare. One note: $25 per person seems a little pricey to me. We found a Groupon and so were able to do a little better than that, so keep your eyes peeled.

I experienced the raucousness of this experience through a company team building and mission accomplished. Our group had about 75 minutes of time in the "Prime Time" room which was ample time to play takes on Family Feud, the Match Game, and more physically interactive games like bean bag toss, spoon flipping and flip cup. Maximum fun in a great atmosphere, and the staff's energy and on stage personas really envelop you in the game shows experience. The "Classics" room that we did not experience reportedly had takes on the Price is Right and Wheel of Fortune, which.... sign me up for that next time!

That was not the case with Escape It, which was very professional in terms of service (staff spoke with us on the phone ahead of time to determine which room was best for the girls' age group, and were friendly and helpful when we arrived), and quality of the room, its details and decor, its effects (surprise walls moving, etc). The experience was great from start to finish, and I would recommend it to any group in the future.

We have done many escape rooms and Breakout is one of our favorites! We even have the box set…read morecalled Dispatch that you do at home, not sure if this is an option anymore since we got it in 2018. This company definitely got some things right! The service here has always been exceptional. Breakout along with other companies are moving away from the standard key and combo locks and integrating more "magic" as one of the hosts called it. More moving parts and ones that just open automatically when a puzzle is solved which is much more fun so if you haven't been in a while I'd say this is your cue to book a new room. My favorite room at this location was Do Not Disturb which doesn't exist in Ohio anymore but most recently we did Museum Heist. It was engaging with clues that could be solved by kids and adults. We had a party of five and made it out in time with our youngest player being 13. The clues are fun and challenging and the hints are given on a TV screen when you ask for them. I do prefer the ones where you can just speak to the host but these hints are specific to what you ask, you just may have to walk to the other room to see the TV. That is the only slightly negative thing I have to say because we love this company! If you've never been then this is a good place to start because they all seem passionate about escape rooms and making sure people enjoy it. For anyone who has done multiple escape rooms or plans to, you should check out the Morty app if you don't have it already!

Our room was fun and creative. We escaped and found out who did it at 44 minutes, using one of three clues we could have asked for. We had 6 people which was the max allowed in this room (I think). The items in the room were in good shape and the storyline flowed well. We had a blast and will come back for some of the other rooms!

Worth it! *** BUT PLEASE ADD A COLOR-BLIND ACCESSIBLE OPTION.***…read more Activate is definitely worth the drive! It's a great date place. One thing I will suggest is that I wish the Grid game and the pattern matching games were more colorblind accessible. For example, in level 6, green is VERY close to yellow. Red and orange are also too similar. A person with Deuteranomy cannot distinguish those colors easily. Deuteranomy is the most common form of color blindness, affecting approximately 5% of males and ~0.4% of females. There should be an option to choose "avoid green/yellow" or "color blind accessible"/"Deuteranomaly or Deuteranopia Accessible". It is very nice that there are free lockers to use!

Great way to burn off some energy with engaging games. Plenty of parking and free lockers to store stuff in. Also, sitting areas for people not participating.

We ended up solving 2/3 of the puzzles and they were quite challenging! I will say it may have been even more enjoyable with less people around. It was a bit crowded and many times we were trying to solve puzzles and children would come between us and the interactive piece. We understand that it's an interactive experience for all so we didn't mind waiting. But it did slow down a bit of our excitement to solve a puzzle. All in all I think the entire experience was exciting and fun. A great place for a date where you can take pictures, see cool rooms, and maybe solve a puzzle or two!

The place was in a shopping center that seemed pretty empty but once we got inside it was like we entered another world. The place wasn't too packed and there was one worker at the front who was really sweet and patient with our group. They also allowed me to do a tour of the game area which I appreciated. There was a little something for everyone, adults and kids included. From the time we walked in we were met with room after room filled with interactive exhibits which we enjoyed. I don't want to give too much away as I don't want to ruin the surprise but I definitely recommend checking it out! The tickets were a bit pricey but after seeing everything inside I didn't feel too bad about paying so much. If you find yourself in the area, you should definitely make your way out to see them!

The building is old and adds to the ambiance but I will say it was quite cold temperature wise as we wore our coats throughout the game. All I'll say so I don't ruin it for the next person is the first room took us much longer than the second, not allowing us enough time to complete the third. Don't overthink the clues in the first room, as difficult as they may seem overthinking will make things that more difficult. I recommend this escape room, it's more along the lines of a family owned vibe rather than mainstream chain (although they do have numerous locations in various areas the customer service and concept seem more intentional)
