Here's a polished five-star review you could use: Escape the Place was an outstanding experience from start to finish. We completed two rooms, and both were incredibly well designed. The puzzles were challenging without being frustrating, and each clue followed a logical progression that made solving them feel rewarding rather than random. What really stood out were the creative locks, mechanisms, and gadgets. Even as experienced escape room enthusiasts, we encountered several puzzle elements we had never seen before, which kept the experience fresh and exciting. A special shoutout to Kirsten, our game master, who was absolutely fantastic. She was welcoming, enthusiastic, and helped make the entire experience enjoyable. Great game masters can make a good escape room even better, and Kirsten definitely did that. read more

Came here with the girls' wrestling team for team bonding and had so much fun! We stayed after and brought in pizza and drinks. The employees were kind and helpful! We definitely need more entertainment places like this down south! Highly recommend! read more

Fun experience! We were only about 2 steps away from escaping but had a great time doing so regardless. If you're looking for a fun escape room to try out with your friends this one has fun themes and friendly staff. read more

If I could do 0 stars believe me I would. Had a reservation for 8:30pm, we showed up at 8:20pm and no one was there everything was closed and all the lights were off. At least I got my refund but they didn't even try to offer anything to us like a free reservation to make up for it, or even really apologize for the inconvenience. read more

It was a bit of a mess, walkie talkie didn't work, clues weren't structured like an actual clue so much as "do this" which was often something we had already done. Just one room. Overall wasn't super impressed. Would try again after they move maybe. read more

BEST ESCAPING EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Staff is nice and helpful. Will do again. My son and I did The Chamber and we loved it!! read more

Worst escape room in the Springs. Did 3 of the rooms. Puzzles are not well thought out. Props and locks broken - that's a total fail. I have been here twice and both times the game master had to come in the room. Both times there were puzzles that didn't work or were not reset properly. Big improvements are needed at this place, in order to compete with the other options in the Springs that are available for the same price. read more

What a great activity with lots of different rooms for different experiences. Very friendly and helpful staff. Excellent, highly recommend!!! read more

We did the kids room PeterPan for my 7 year old grandson it was our first experience with an escape room . The staff was friendly and patient we will definitely come back for another escape room read more

We had a party here 10/10 best experience ever and fun for everyone even the parents loved it!!!

Our experience was weak. We did the chamber 2. If you dont do well with blinking lights this room is not for you! They set our room back up wrong. so we spent 15 minutes on a puzzle that we were never gonna be able to get. Then when we asked for a hint they gave us a wrong clue so we spent 10 minutes fussing with the wrong thing. The locks were super hard to use and get to. Overall not my favorite experience at all. read more

I was a bit apprehensive at first to do an escape room. It's not something that I would normally find fun. My daughter suggested we go, so I went with my son, my daughter, and her fiancé. I'll have to say we all had such a great time working together and solving all the mysteries in the room! There is no doubt we will return to try another room! read more

Five of us conquered the BlackSite KGB captured room in 53 minutes today! The clues were challenging but do-able! Teamwork is a bonus!!!! When I'm back in town for another visit I hope we can go back again. Thanks for a fun adventure! read more

Had a really great time, some puzzles were difficult and needed help but once we got over those bumps were able to make it through with a minute to spare. read more

Really poor looking rooms, and clues aren't very great. Least favorite escape room in colorado so far

This was our second time at Escape The Place the first time we did not like but decided to give it another try since my group of 4 LOVE escape rooms. We did our 8th room together ( 2nd at ETP) and we had no since of accomplishment. 5 Minutes in we were asked to leave the room because it was set up wrong. We started again everything reminded me of a quick high school project more than an actual business. The locks we had to try the same code over and over because the codes where right just picky to open the one word lock with a blank space is really stupid! The shape of the symbol we were matching looked different and the guy was like ya I don't know what ones correct? Super simple to fix that dumb mistake. I am made this was my pick of places after we did all the rooms at 21Keys. read more

I hate to leave poor reviews, but this place was just not good. Very scant puzzles that felt more like busy work than fun. The room was small, no reveals. Poor design. read more

We had our Son's 9th birthday party here! We had two escape rooms running simultaneously while the parents hung out in the party room. Awesome service and support. Angel and Kristen were tremendous at ensuring our party had everything we needed. Thank you!!! read more

Very fun, I did the Russian room, and we almost got out, but the tasks to get out were hard and easy and not too hard. Definitely worth it.

We went yesterday for our team event for work and had the best time. Lindsey was amazing and very fun to work with. Thanks for the awesome time. read more

We did microzon, but a better name would have been escape goodwill. The room was cheaply designed and scarcely decorated. Over half the room was labeled to "not touch", which left about 4 things to play with. The puzzles were rudimentary at best, we would have solved it easily with no hints in under 30 minutes if the props had all been working - the batteries in the black light and TV remote were dead and our game master had to enter the room. The game master was not the least bit enthusiastic and read off our "story" with about as much interest as reading an oven manual, and then told us multiple times not to unmake the bed, take off the pillow cases, unfold the towels, or touch about half the room. Pretty sure it's because they just didn't want to make the bed again. Save your money and go to Aha Escapes or locked in escapes - they provide an actual experience for the same price (sometimes cheaper!) read more

We did the room "Quarantine" room at Escape the Place and it was a shit show. I have done tons of escape rooms in colorado springs and have never been to one so unorganized, and all over the place. The room is considered the "hardest room in colorado" according to the personnel and i agree seemjng that no one can escape since it makes no sense whatso ever. Difficult COHESIVE rooms are worth the money, and fun no matter the outcome, but not this room since there was no logical way to escape without being as random in your guessing as this room was set up. Not worth your $30 read more

Looking for something to do with family, friends, co-workers? This is the place. Especially if you want or need an indoor activity. Our group of six attempted a puzzle designed for a group of twelve (oops execution error on our part). We came close to escaping, but just missed the mark. The puzzles were challenging, the storyline was fun, and everyone in our group (ages 14 to 55) had a good time. We chatted about it afterwards for quite some time. It's fun, it's challenging, it's worth your hard earned money. read more

We did this for my birthday and this was the first time doing an escape room at Escape the Place (but none of us were newbies to escape rooms in general). We did Quarantine, 2% escape rate at the time, and now we totally understand why. Very puzzle focused and definitely easy to get distracted! We were so close though, literally working through the last puzzle when time ran out. The only thing that I would suggest is to get working walkie-talkies. We wasted a few minutes trying to communicate with the manager of the room with a broken walkie-talkie and distracted with him walking in and out to fix it and those few minutes wasted were valuable. Thanks for the great time and we cannot wait to try another one! read more

This was awesome. The staff was very professional and they went above and beyond accommodating our softball team. Thanks for a great experience! read more

Ok. This was our first time in an escape room so we did not know what to expect. Turns out our anxiety was totally unfounded The staff is absolutely fantastic. Fun and smart and yes, helpful. We did the rampancy room which is one of their hardest and we almost completed it. It was so immersive that we almost forgot we were in a room. And we "hacked" a lock and ended up three or four steps ahead. The staff caught it and set us straight. Was pretty funny actually. But it was an extremely well spent hour. We loved it and plan to do more in the future Thanks for a great time guys. read more

First one to leave a review.... I win. Did the Hangover, feeling pretty good. Went in with a group of three and had an amazing time. The puzzles gave us some challenges, but with our mind powers combined, we solved the room. Staff was extremely friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back to try our luck with the second scenario. read more

Super fun time! Would go again. Definitely a good experience and will recommend to others.

As a lover of escape rooms, I think I go in with high expectations. This did not fail to please. It definitely requires you and your friends/family to thoroughly think through the clues and puzzles. It can easily last a long time, definitely worth the money. The puzzles are so well thought out and ones that I had never seen before. Highly recommend read more

This place was a blast. 6 of us from work escaped the CIA black site with about 5 minutes to spare. It was such a fun experience. The staff was professional and courteous and the facility was clean. They really put a lot of thought into the black site room and it shows. The cost is high per person ($28) but they do offer a military discount ($4) and in the end it was worth it. I will be back for sure. read more

Had so much fun at Hel's Manor tonight. Took a group of friends, total of eight of us and had so much fun solving the rooms and clues. It really does take team work and communication to be successful and we escaped! So much fun. We all can't wait to get together and work another escape room. The staff was great, fun, and friendly. This is must do again and again as there are other escape rooms to conquer. Great fun, team work, and making memories with friends! read more

My fiancé and I were in the Springs to celebrate our 10 year anniversary when she suggested we do an escape room. She had done several in Las Vegas this year and I was unable to attend because of work so we booked here. We received a call shortly after we booked to hear that we were the only ones scheduled to be in the room and that they felt it would be too difficult for the two of us. We had no other times that our schedules matched so we had to ask for a refund. I had to call today, 2 weeks later, and ask that our refund be processed. The gentleman confirmed that no one put our refund through. Very disappointing. Was willing to give them another shot if we were in the area, but the refund being forgotten was really the icing on the cake. read more

We took a group of teens here for my daughter's 15th birthday party. The kids had an absolute BLAST and worked incredibly well together to ESCAPE from HEL'S MANOR. The puzzles and problems were tricky and definitely required some brains and teamwork. There was one clue that tripped us up because we got it correctly, but a lock didn't open. The staff was aware of that issue and hopefully it has been corrected. Our facilitator, Patrick, was awesome. We definitely want to return and try another escape room! read more

Escape The Place - Kennedy and her friends Escaped from Hel's Manor to celebrate her 15th birthday! - Escape Games Near Me - Fountain, Colorado

We showed up to what we thought would be a cool experience only to find out They cancelled our party of 14 reservations that we had made. We were very upset to show up and find out the door was locked. The person at the front came to the door and said sorry we tried calling you but no one answered we left a message. If that's the way you treat customers, then I can only imagine that we wouldn't have enjoyed ourselves. read more

I've done about 10 escape rooms and the Time Bomb escape room here is the worst I've ever done. The room was poorly decorated. There was basically no story. We were just suppose to open a dozen boxes than contained another dozen boxes and then another dozen. No fun props. No interesting puzzles. Just 3 puzzles to solve a dozen times each. It was not fun. read more

6 of us did hangover room as a birthday celebration for the hubs. There were fun puzzles but in the end we did not escape and those 2 puzzles that stopped our escape were crap. Not creative, clever, or thought provoking... just dumb. For 28 bucks per person I had higher expectations. Now I'm no germaphobe but the room was SUPER DIRTY - severely needed to be dusted and vacuumed. I wasn't actually staying in a hotel room, of course, but it was gross with the most beaten up super junky hotel cast-off furniture! It looked like the staff who staged the room went to the dump for props... not even a thrift store but a garbage dump! And I shop at thrift stores. For the $160 clams they made in 1 hour they really should have vacuumed and cleaned up a bit. I do not recommend hangover because some puzzles were just no fun, it was overpriced, and really unclean. read more

Loved the employees and the room. We did the hangover and we had a blast. They have clear signs of what isn't apart of the game and are very well organized. The manager was awesome!! Will be coming back for sure! read more

We did this with group of people for my sister's birthday. It was a lot of fun working together to escape from the rooms. One of our people was late and they were booked solid, so they had to start the timer before she got there. We still did really well and afterwards they told us it was their second hardest challenge. I would love to do one of these again. Just make sure all of your group is checked in 15 minutes early because they have to brief you and get waivers signed. read more

Awesome way to spend an afternoon with a few friends. Had a great time with the hangover scenario, was a great hands on, live riddle. Definitely planning on going back for more of their scenarios and going to be bringing out my company for some team building. I whole heartedly recommend this place to anybody who likes puzzles and wants a fun afternoon or evening. read more

Staff was friendly and helpful. We did the Hangover scenario and it seemed to be haphazardly thrown together. Seemed just like a bunch of locks and obscure clues. One electronic lock didn't work and we were frequently called from the "Front Desk" with clues without reaching out. We had a ton of fun at another escape room the week prior but this one let us down. Unlikely to go back. read more
