Had a great time! The challenge was fun and for our first time it was a whole lot of fun. Wonderful activity for our family to do together on the Thanksgiving weekend!! Dan read more

I took a group here this past Saturday and we had so much fun. I had never been to an escape room before and didn't know what to expect. The challenges were so creative. We did get stuck numerous times and they were there to nudge you to give you clues if needed. Nicole was super friendly to our group. Thanks for a great time! read more

Had so much fun...a great time and just challenging enough! Can't wait to try another room.

We had THE best time! Came here for my nephew's 11th birthday, and he had a blast. He's young, but still solved many of the puzzles or could help assist. It's an excellent way to get QT with your family in a new way! The staff was helpful, supportive, and super friendly. The place felt very Covid safe as well. Highly HIGHLY recommend! read more

There are three rooms located at this site. In the past two years, I have done all three with my grandchildren. They are so much fun! The staff is totally committed to your success. They are very very helpful and guide you when needed without taking away the challenge of solving it. Highly recommend this for a very fun afternoon! read more

I have two daughters one is 13 and the other one is 15. The three of us made it through the escape room and we had a blast. I would recommend this to anyone. I am excited to go back. read more

the gentleman that was supposed to set up the room was late and rude when he arrived. He rushed us as if we did something wrong. he said we had to start right away because he had another appointment after us. the woman was extremely nice. She helped us throughout the game. the escape room was so much fun and we had a blast. we would definitely try another room next time. besides the man being late and rude we had a great time. read more

Wow this was a lot of fun. My family is super competitive so this was perfect for us. It requires a lot of teamwork to get through, but I highly recommend it. If you and a group have a free afternoon on a weekend, this is the perfect place to go. read more

My family did the Vampire room and it was really exciting with a lot of interesting puzzles. We are definitely pretty novice at this, but we liked how varied the puzzles were and how some had obviously taken a lot of time and effort to design and implement. We also appreciated the helpful hints that didn't give the entire puzzle away when we were stuck (like I said, we are novices). My only suggestion would be to have a color blindness warning the the website for rooms that have a lot of color coded puzzles. I am colorblind, and thus my group of 5 was down to 4 for a lot of the puzzles. Otherwise, a great experience. read more

Oh my Gosh!! Kim was the beat host ever. This is my first time doing a Escape Challenge. I went with 6 other people and we had a great time. I would recommend this Escape Room to all. I don't want to give any clues, but this was such a cool Friday night. read more

Our group had a great time here. It was the first time for any of us at an Escape Room, however the guide/moderator did a great job explaining to us how it would work. We made it through and had a fun time figuring out all the puzzles within puzzles. The price of $25/person is more than I would typically spend on entertainment. However, it is on par with other escape rooms in the area, and is not unreasonable considering the amount of time that must be spent setting up the room(s). It was certainly worth it for experience we had. All in all, I would recommend this Escape Room, for sure! read more

Took my family here a few weeks ago as a Christmas present. We nerd out over games, trivia.. that sort of situation. I'm tellin' ya, put your cell phones down, gather some friends, crack a cold one and engage in a timeless classic board-styled game.. revive the lost art of actual socialization with in a group problem-solving setting! I digress, we went to Escape Room NWI and we loved it. I was skeptical at first, ya know, because I immediately thought it couldn't amount, in quality, to taking everyone into Chicago and doing an escape room there. I was wrong.. you know what the say about assuming.. anywho... The puzzles were challenging and the gal (who said she was part owner with her husband) was funny and helpful throughout the whole shin-dig. It was certainly worth the time and money and we can't wait to try the other versions of the game they offer! read more

This was a great experience. I definitely thought it would be easier than it was but it was challenging and That made the experience fun! Mary was an excellent host. I will be returning to try the other rooms! read more

Escape Room NWI - We escaped!! - Escape Games Near Me - Schererville, Indiana

We had such a great experience at the Escape Room NWI. Great customer service and instructions. We had a blast being prisoners and successfully escaping from jail (with some extra hints, lol). We will be back. read more

This was so much fun. Makes you think outside of the box. Mary was an awesome host with a great personality. Will definitely be coming back again to experience the second room. read more

Escape Room NWI - Escape Games Near Me - Schererville, Indiana

We had a group of six since one couple canceled. I was unsure of how this would work, and if it would be just a group of lame puzzles that would be like playing clue when you were a child. Lame it was not! The group gets 'locked' in a room and attempts to solve puzzles in order to open the door to the next room. The puzzles vary, and each one gets you one step close to the key. Once in the second room, even more puzzles await you in order to learn the key code to open the door and escape the room. There were a few surprises, and a couple false clues that meant nothing in retrospect. The puzzles, and clues, were interesting and required a bit of 'outside-the-box' reasoning to solve. Each member of the group thinks differently, and everyone contributed to solving at least one of the puzzles. If we got stuck for too long, the operator of the room would chime in on the radio, and give a vague clue that would steer us in the right direction. While he didn't give us the solution to a puzzle, he prevented us from spending 20 minutes on one problem and getting frustrated in the process. The clues, and puzzles, were complex enough to require a bit of thought, but not overwhelming to the point anybody threw their hands up in defeat. It's a great time, and a great way to start an evening with friends! We will definitely try another room at a different location, and come back to this location once more rooms are completed! read more

1st visit to an ecape room. Planned it as a little 25 yr high school reunion with great friends. IT. WAS. A. BLAST. So much fun! You really get to see how well you work with others. You get an hour to "solve" all the mysteries. And we had 8 min to spare :) I'd definitely do it again. A different room next time. read more

Went to the Escape Room with the Outcast Thunder Team and Parents! So Much FUN!! They also play excellent tunes in the waiting room. The Game Moderator were both GREAT, explained everything and gave good clues when we needed it. If You Need Beverages aka Liquid Reinforcement, TGIF and La Carreta are across the street. I Will Be Back!! read more

Definitely check out the Escape Room, just not at this location. Due to a scheduling error, that was my wife's fault, my family and I were met with great disrespect and an overall unpleasant attitude by the owner of this establishment. If you are looking for a friendly, welcoming environment to solve puzzles and enjoy the uniqueness that is the escape room, I encourage you to look elsewhere. Great business idea, poor business management. Edit: In regards to the reply by Escape Room - The scheduling error was my wife's fault, but that's not what this review is about. This review is about how our situation was handled. After the first phone conversation where my wife asked to switch days/times, she immediately felt she had inconvenienced the owner. She was met with a disrespectful attitude and unhelpful demeanor, so much so, that she was fearful to call back to ask another question. Upon arriving with our party of 7, we were told only one of us could partake. We decided to respectfully decline, and left. That night, we were never offered a refund. We were never offered to reschedule at a different time. We were never shown empathy for the confusion. We had small children with us, to which the owner had commented, "We are not a babysitting service". He knew we were the ones that called a few days prior asking the rescheduling questions.The refund only came about after my wife summed up the courage to call and ask for it three days later. No accountability was taken on their behalf. And as far as the woman replying on Escape Room's behalf, Nicole, you have never had any interaction with my family or our scheduling error, so I'm not sure on what authority you are posting. I am business owner myself, and I would never treat any patron the way Escape Room treated my family and I. As a newly established business, I would expect more. As any respectable business, I would expect more. Escape Room of Northwest Indiana, I hope for your success in the area and for future discrepancies with customers to be handled like a professional business should. read more

Easy online booking for a family activity with kids (10 & 13), parents, and 2 sets of grandparents. Very friendly greeting and a few quick and clear instructions later, our escape attempt in the Fabrege room started. The clues were challenging but not impossible, and mostly unique throughout. They watch via video cameras as you work your way through, and if you get really stuck, they nudge you in the right direction. Thanks to the rock star 10 year old in our group, we solved it with about 30 sec to spare! We're not local, but if we were we'd try the other two rooms they have! read more

All of us enjoyed doing this escape room. This room had the most combination locks we had to figure to find certain clues or objects. Was a great time and are looking forward to going back. read more

If I could give them more than 5 stars I would! This was great entertainment! Not only does it challenge your mind but it also gets your adrenaline pumping! I have done both rooms and today we did the faberge heist and it was so much fun! I have done other escape rooms in the past and the fact that they don't limit the number of clues makes it fun for all ages! These guys really have their stuff together! I can't wait until they open their their room! read more

My boyfriend and I went to EscapeRoomNWI on a date and I can honestly say this had to be the most fun we have had in a long time. Mary greeted us and explained everything to us and another group who had booked the room too. It took teamwork between all parties and we were pleasantly surprised that we all got along so well. I know that this was a good clean and wholesome form of entertainment where we actually enjoyed ourselves fully. This would also be a great team building activity for employees in many different industries I highly recommend this activity to anyone read more

This was my first time at an escape room - and I cannot wait to go back and try the other room (they have 2, with a third on the way) with some other friends! It was a lot of fun - the puzzles were quite challenging, and the "hostess" radioed in key hints when she saw we were at an impasse (they watch you via camera to see your progress). I won't give away any of the puzzles, but they were varied enough that everyone in our group contributed in different ways to help solve them all - no one felt left out or that they didn't contribute. Our whole family enjoyed it - which in itself is a great compliment. read more

BAD customer service! I wanted to book a reservation over the phone but continuously got an answering machine. After reluctantly booking online I realized it was the wrong date. I was still unable to connect with anyone over the phone . read more

Here is the thing. This is expensive. This 'experience' is less than an hour. I paid $125 for 5 of us to do this. Since we varied in age and IQ the younger folks figured everything out and the others basically watched. So only do this with someone of your intellectual equal or definitely wait til the hype dies down and this thing is on groupon. read more
