From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere immediately set the tone for a fun and immersive challenge. The lobby was clean, well-organized, and had a cool puzzle-themed vibe that got everyone in the right mindset before we even started the game. One of the highlights of the entire experience was our host, Jamie. She was incredibly welcoming and did a great job explaining the rules and the story behind the room without giving anything away. Sometimes escape room briefings can feel rushed or confusing, but Jamie made everything clear and engaging. She had a really friendly personality and made our group feel comfortable right away. It felt like she genuinely wanted us to have a great time, which made a big difference. The room itself was very well designed. The puzzles were creative and challenging without feeling impossible. I really appreciated that the clues flowed logically from one to the next, so when you solved something it felt rewarding rather than random. There was a good mix of different puzzle types too--some that required careful observation, others that needed teamwork, and a few that really made us stop and think. It kept everyone in our group involved instead of just one person solving everything. Another thing I liked was the level of immersion. The set design and props were high quality and made the whole experience feel like you were actually part of the story. Nothing felt cheap or out of place. You could tell a lot of thought went into creating the environment and making sure the puzzles fit naturally into the theme. Jamie also did a great job monitoring the game and giving hints when we needed them. The hints were helpful but not overly obvious, which is exactly what you want in an escape room. They helped keep the game moving without ruining the challenge. After the game ended, she took the time to talk with us about the puzzles we solved and the ones we struggled with, which was a really nice touch. Overall, Riddlebox delivered a fantastic experience. Between the creative puzzles, immersive room design, and Jamie's excellent hosting, it was a memorable and really fun activity for our group. Whether you're new to escape rooms or someone who has done a lot of them, I would definitely recommend giving Riddlebox a try. The staff clearly care about making sure guests have a great time, and that effort really shows. I'm already looking forward to coming back and trying another room

And it was spooky vibes without being scary at any point. The puzzles were challenging and we did need 3 hints, but we were able to escape with plenty of time left too. There was a good mix of physical, tactile puzzles and thoughtful logic/word puzzles. We will be back to try more rooms in the future! The staff was helpful and kind and we found the whole place and lobby to be clean and nice.

Though, we did have to get a hint or two only because the puzzle sequence seemed out of order? We got ahead of ourselves it seems on solving them. Because of the number of folks and the number of puzzles to solve, we got through it fairly quickly. It "felt" like there should be another room to be challenged in, so it felt short once we "escaped." We were all disappointed it ended so abruptly. It's in downtown Plainfield, so there are restaurants and bars to grab food before or after.

The puzzles were clever and engaging, and there was a perfect mix of challenges that kept all the girls involved and excited. We met with Ty when we arrived, and he was great at setting the scene for everyone. He was encouraging when they needed help, without giving too much away. It was a fantastic team-building experience, and the girls loved working together to solve everything before time ran out. They solved the case in 50 minutes! It was a few sneaky tricks, cool puzzles, things that stumped us and over all a whole lot of fun!! Highly recommend for groups of kids or scout troops, familes or adults looking for a fun and memorable activity! I'd love to go back and try the other rooms sometime soon!
