I want to tell you a story. A story about how two friends decided to travel from Dallas, Texas to…read moreConway, Arkansas to do escape rooms and eat David's Burgers. We left Dallas in the morning, leaving an extra hour of travel time just in case we hit traffic. Unfortunately, we hit lots of unexpected construction traffic. I emailed Ozark Escape to see if they could help us shuffle our times around, and a very nice man named Miles helped us push back our room times. Everything seemed like it was good to go. We knew disaster was on the horizon when we saw billowing black smoke right outside of Texarkana. I-30 quickly came to a complete stop. So we sat there on the highway, thinking that there was an accident and that we would be on our way shortly after emergency services arrived. We listened to a podcast. Thirty minutes ticked by. I napped. An hour. We stood outside the car and talked to our highway neighbors. Ninety minutes. We were at a complete standstill. Eventually I decided to drive in the breakdown lane, partially in the grass, to a point in which I could cross the median and go the opposite direction. Utilizing the power of Google Maps we found a back way around the accident and were on our way again. I called my new friend Miles at Ozark Escape again and told him the bad news. He spoke to his experience curator (game master) Emma who was on site in Conway and they again, a second time, made arrangements for us to be able to play both of our rooms even though they had a full schedule for the rest of the day. This included Emma agreeing to stay late just to make sure we could do our rooms. Eventually, we made it to Conway and completed our rooms, which both were relatively new concepts with innovative puzzles and a decent level of immersion. I can't speak highly enough of both Miles and Emma. They were wonderful, and went out of their way to make sure we had a good time despite our unfortunate travel experiences. If you're ever in the Conway area, please give this establishment your business. Good rooms and A+ customer service. You're going to have a great time! Highly recommended!

Another excellent experience at Ozark Escape in Conway, AR…read more This was our third escape room with them (20 overall at various venues) and we were very satisfied with the room ("Power Hungry") and the price ($28/person). Their rooms have excellent equipment, storylines, and puzzles. There is something about the way that their rooms play that makes them logical but challenging. Of the 20 we've played overall, Ozark Escape's rooms are slightly easier relative to how they label their rooms, but that doesn't make them any less demanding or any less fun. Samantha was our "experience coordinator" (close to what she labeled herself) again, and did a great job overseeing our experience. Although we didn't ask for any clues she saw where we needed a couple of nudges to break our efforts loose and provided them. They were ours to use or not (she just put them up on the screen) and they were perfectly timed. Sometimes it seems like the game coordinators are not paying attention at other venues, but that has never been our experience at Ozark Escape. The lobby is clean and as COVID-friendly as customers want, and they have "practice" locks available in case any of them are unfamiliar. The website provides an efficient means to sign up for a specific time, and complete required waiver forms ahead of time. We learned yesterday that "Operative" and "Hidden Elixir" rooms are no longer available as they are combining them to create a new room opening in mid-January 2022 (advertised). We will definitely be returning to play the new room based on our experiences with Ozark Escape in Conway, and we look forward to a future trip to Fayetteville, AR to play some different rooms at that Ozark Escape. If you're new to escape rooms, or an experienced player, you'll definitely want to visit Ozark Escape - Conway.

Overall, we had a great time, and plan on returning with others.

We waited 5 minutes for our first hint just to step out to hunt him down and find out that he didn't turn on his walkie talkie yet because he was too busy with other groups. Not to mention the fact that we still finished with about 15 minutes to spare and sat there messing with it for up until about 5 seconds left because he wasn't there to notice that we made it out. We ended up having to ask him what we were waiting on and have him realize we finished. To overbook and understaff like this baffles me. It was definitely our last time at Cryptex.

The "Diamond Heist" was our 18th escape room of varying levels of quality, and our second at the…read moreEscape Mystery Rooms (previous was CSI: Conway). This place was a little different, with a homier feel, and we had a little bit of a frustrating experience the first time around based on the way the room was laid out and the way our game was managed. However, the Diamond Heist was very well put together. We got an appropriate/abundant level of helps and hints that kept the game moving along. When we got stuck it was almost completely on us, and the game master helped where needed. Parts of the game were very innovative and despite this being number 18 we were amazed that there are still new ways to solve "puzzles" and Escape Mystery Rooms integrated a number of them into the room. The one drawback, associated with the "homey" atmosphere, was that there were a few young children running around (grandkids?) in the front area. The only issue with that was that they were an auditory distraction while we were trying to immerse ourselves in the room (minor) and might have been a distraction to the game master once or twice(?). In the end they credited us with escaping at 59:59 and we were very satisfied with our experience and disappointed that we missed out on the Hotel Room (which appeared to be closed for replacement), but are looking forward to what they install next. We will continue to return to Escape Mystery Rooms, especially if they end up opening their date night room as they'd discussed a few months ago. I recommend this escape room as one of the top in the local area. And if you need to discuss this review hopefully I'll be the one coming out of one of their escape rooms at under 60 minutes.

Occasionally the production quality is lacking (cheesy scripts and the like.

Escape Branson was a good time and even allowed us to take our small children in free of charge (8 and under). I am partial to the style of rooms that utilize the video monitor to feed clues rather than entering the room and unfortunately they enter the room here. I feel it takes away from the feeling of being "trapped" inside and needing to escape. The girl working the counter was nothing short of amazing. She was interactive with our kids distracting them and then including them during her brief to us by having them stretch out and speaking specifically to them. It was really adorable and unexpected to see her level of inclusion for the littles. She's the reason the place is getting 4 Stars. We did end up using 2 clues but we definitely didn't need them as we finished the room with more than 15 minutes remaining. They definitely had some clever clues and riddles that were new to someone like me that's done a lot of these. I felt the rooms were about average though and very good for beginners that need an introduction to escape rooms. So far Breakout Waikiki has set the standard for how Escape Rooms and no other establishment has come close to reaching the bar they've set.
