I am really happy that Escapology came here as now there is something new to do when you end up meeting people at the mall. Plenty of easy parking, lots of places to eat nearby, you can also do some shopping, see a movie or play some video games. With another local escape room place closing recently, this may be the best local option. Its got many escape rooms to choose from, at some point I might do them all. Prices are high, but look for groupons and week day deals. Rooms are private for your group. Easy to book online. On a busy Saturday morning with not a ton of advanced planned we were able to make reservations for Batman. My 10 and 12 year old nephews seemed to enjoy it, but they are becoming escape room experts. The 12 year old had already been here and done another room. The youngest is already planning the escape room he wants to do next. We escaped with 1 minute and 11 seconds to spare. My brother complained the rooms were small and we would have struggled to fit the additional 2 people we considered bringing. The hints were provided on a computer screen so we were able to keep them up until we solved what we were working on. We used a lot of clues. One part did seem to have the answer already showing by overuse, but this was a bonus for us. Not overly dark, like some escape rooms. I really like the decor here, lobby included. Nice to have multiple bathrooms and a water fountain with cups in case you want to bring some water in with you. The escape room door is available to open at will in case you need to run to the bathroom. No lockers, but a basket to put a few items in the room if you don't want to hold them.

The unique thing about this escape room is they included an actor to immerse us in the story and to occasionally give us hints; a more immersive experience then having us push a button and waiting for the staff on the intercom to give us a clue. - Parking here is tricky. The lower-level parking structure right next door has many conflicting signs. Even the staff at Locurio weren't sure how to help us ensure free safe parking. Have to buy something at the nearby supermarket to get validated parking? Not sure. - Wish they allowed each of us a prop to hold for the photo at the end. Good thing I brought my own.

I would like to add to the rating, however, that they could have a bit more interactive decor in their rooms.

We got there, checked in and then the gal just walked us into a room, didn't really say much. Since none of us (party of 7) had been to an escape room before we didn't really know what to expect. I felt as though we were just dropped off and expected to figure it all out, which I mean, I get it. That's the whole idea but for people that haven't done these before it would've been nice to have a little more explanation in the beginning. considering I paid almost $400 for an hour event, I guess I just would've hoped it would've been a little bit more of a memorable experience. Unfortunately, we probably won't be back.

We knew we had to try We decided to do the hardest room at Puzzle Break - Escape from Seattle, The World's Fair Affair We had a group of 6 with varying levels of experience with escape rooms (it was one of our friends first room while two of us have done more than 50 rooms) and the room felt perfect for the size! There were a lot of moving parts and lots to do in to this room so nobody was really standing around. We thought the room had a great balance between technology and analog. Puzzles were logical and hard in ways, but solvable and doable! We all had a really great time and got out with 16 minutes to spare! Communication/organization is key for this room Mason our game master was great and helpful! There was also a giant lounge to wait in for our game to start with tons of couches, games, puzzles, and water. A great escape room at a great venue! Would absolutely come again and would love to do Puppeteer's Workshop in the future

I am so excited to write this review, for context I did work here for a bit, but note that my…read morereview is based off of experience with The Escape Game before and after working here. This place is EPIC. Seriously. The game design is top notch, the game guides actually pay attention to you when you're in the rooms so they know what you've done and tried, they don't watch several games at once, and they actually CARE if you had a good time. Prior to them arriving in Seattle my wife and I had done all but one of their games in different cities (DC, Nashville, San Francisco) and were thrilled that they came through with Cosmic Crisis, one we had not done. On top of the rooms and general customer service being top notch - the space is clean. Being in facilities both my wife and I judge places by their restrooms - and The Escape Game Downtown Seattle has consistently had a pristine restroom - and frankly? That counts.

A friend who has done over 200 escape rooms recommended this one. I admit, I was a little nervous not knowing what to expect but we ended up having the BEST time! Michelle was our guide and she was awesome about telling us "sort of" what to expect while still keeping it mysterious. We did "Cosmic Crisis" which they described as level 7 out of 10. I have to admit, I thought it was pretty hard! We were allowed to ask for clues, which we did end up doing a handful of times. We did manage to escape which was super exciting! We had 3 minutes to spare. Our kids are 10 and 12 and they cannot wait to go back. This is such a fun family friendly thing to do. Highly recommend!!!

I have done all 4 Escape Rooms at the Escape Artist. Spell Struck was my first ever Escape Room…read more I have since done numerous others and Spellbound remains one of my top 2 favorites that I've experienced. The ambiance and atmosphere was top notch. The variety of and creativity of the puzzles and clues in this room were among the best. My friend and I, both escape room virgins, escaped 1 minute late! (ugh) Dive to Atlantis was my second favorite out of the rooms at this location. My cousins from out of town joined us. They had never done an escape room and thoroughly enjoyed it. We were able to solve all the clues and get out in time. There was one particularly difficult puzzle but nonetheless we made it with time to spare. The same friend I did Spell Struck with and I did 13th floor and finished with time to spare. I wasn't as impressed with this room compared to the others and we were stuck in the "elevator" on a single clue for a long time near the beginning. Luckily we sped through the second half like a breeze, which was very padlock heavy (I don't like that), and we may have used hints we didn't need because we thought we were running low on time. We weren't. My roommate and I did Lost in Space and we really like this room. I would say the theming and atmosphere felt a little cheesy for a Space Station, but the clues and riddles were stimulating and we had a very fun time overall. Escape Artist deserves a 5 star rating, if for just Spell Struck alone, but they have 4 unique experiences. Two of the rooms have actual motion which is awesome. None are like any of the others so there is great variety. If you are looking for a great escape room, keep them on your list!

These were the last of the current Escape Artist and Sure Lock escape rooms we had yet to play and they were 2 of our favorites! 13th Floor featured the full motion effects, Escape Artist uses in some of their rooms. The room was smaller than some but the story elements were incredibly cohesive and they packed a ton of really creative puzzles into the space. Neon Shadows might be my favorite escape room to date. It was really hard but so much fun. Lots of the puzzle mechanics in the room felt new or novel and it was all really well integrated with the central theme. A wealth of geek and 80s references were a delightful bonus! Big thank you to our game masters this weekend, Gavin and Will. You both made our experience so fun and engaging. We'll definitely be back whenever there are more rooms to play.
