We had a 10/10 experience at Mind Trap Escape Room. The check-in process was a breeze, and the staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived. We were able to store our belongings in a locker before being shown to our escape room. We chose the Jurassic World room and were given clear instructions along with a walkie-talkie to request clues if needed--which we definitely took advantage of. This was my first escape room experience, so it took a little time to understand what was being asked of us, but once it clicked, things started moving much more smoothly. Even though we didn't solve the entire room, we had a great time and are already looking forward to coming back to try another one. read more

This was the most fun I have had in a long time! I highly recommend going if you want a fun activity to use your brain. I will say if you are autistic, the lights and sound effects could be triggering. But if you are solid and not off your meds, you're going to have great fun!! read more

Best rooms in Illinois! Locked up is hands down the best but you need at least 6 people.

Fun place to do an escape room! My friend picked out the room and did the booking for our group. We did the sunken ship room with a group of 7. This room was cool! ( Without giving away details of the room, I will say it was fun, challenging, and good for a group of 7 adults) They have lockers to put your belongings inside. They provide walkie talkies to request clues. There is plenty of parking available as they are located in a strip mall. Fun time, I would return as they have multiple rooms available. Pricing is reasonable. read more

So much fun! Everyone is so kind and helpful. The rooms are challenging but doable. Great family activity!

The best escape room we have done (and we have done A LOT)! The production and effects are amazing. The puzzles are challenging. We thoroughly enjoyed the Vampire room and appreciate our game master Conner's help. Will definitely return to do another one. read more

I love this escape room! I've gone to 3 of the rooms and love the detail put into each room. They are very realistic, there are details that no one would typically notice.They really make you think outside the box - which I love! They can be very challenging - i have only made it out once I can see they do their best to keep up w/ the wear and tear - not that there is much. With constantly being touched and handled - the clues can really deteriorate - and it's clear they are mindful of that. I've never thrown axes, but looks like a smaller area. I will continue to go until I do all the rooms! read more

It was really fun and difficult me and my friends had a good time we got trapped in the mummy's tomb so the guy had to come in and show us how to do it and take us out read more

What an awesome experience! Staff is great!. I highly recommend. Bring friends and family

Rooms are very well designed, lots of puzzles that are detailed and so fun to figure out. Great place for all ages (our kids have done a couple with us -- ages 11 and 13). Have done several rooms here and will go back for more!! read more

The rooms are great with their theming and challenge. The staff is helpful and add to the fun of the rooms. Hallow especially helped facilitate a good experience. read more

I came to Mind Trap Escape Room after a friend invited my fiancé and I one Saturday morning. We drove from chicago and I'd easily drive 2 hours round trip to come back here....it's THAT good! Our group chose the Mafia room with Dave as our game master. Dave was extremely helpful and friendly talking about the game. The room was so well done and you can tell the staff put so much of their time and effort in these rooms. We enjoyed it so much we stayed for another game on the prison room. Also a great escape concept and a ton of fun. Mind Trap has a ton of cool rooms that I won't hesitate to come back to play. The staff is awesome so please make it a point to check out this place! read more

What a great escape room experience! We have done other escape rooms in the past and this one was by far our favorite. Our group did the Mafia room and found it to be challenging and fun. We made it out in time! Our GM was great at keeping us on track and providing a little help here and there as well as being ready with clues when we asked. We look forward to trying more rooms in the future and thanks to Mind Trap for a fun outing. read more

I've completed many escape rooms with the same group of people, and the escape room we went to at Mind Trap was very unique. No secrets to be shared here- but the employees were all wonderful, they had safe and secure lockers for all of your personal belongings, and walkie-talkies to talk to other members of your team and to the host as the room was so large. We found the puzzles in the rooms to be quite challenging, which is great for us as veteran escape roomers. Really the only challenge for us is that our group was probably 1-2 people too big at 6 because sometimes there was only one puzzle at a time and 1 puzzle for 6 people is not enough. Overall, a great and unique experience- we'll be back! read more

Super fun place! Had lots of laughs with my family would definitely recommend for a fun game night!

Our 2nd time and we had so much fun! Great place and excellent service! Place is well run. Thank you!

We have done over 200 escape rooms and this company has the BEST Rooms!! We have done three rooms today and love the fact that they are totally immersive and the puzzles are challenging without being frustrating!! We travel the country doing escape rooms and this is well worth your time to stop and play as many rooms as you can!! Thanks for such a fantastic experience!!! read more

It's a nice place had a lot of fun with my friends will definitely come again 100% recommended

Everything. Kenny our game master was great! We did Mafia heist. It was awesome. Love this place.

Very intense and intricately designed escape room. We did the Mafia Heist - which I suggest for a larger group!

We had an incredible time for a birthday event here. We did the Dr. Death room which I highly recommend. It's hard, but fun and so realistic. Also we had Cameron as our host and he was incredible! Super engaging, funny, and just all in all made it so much more fun. Highly recommend. read more

Jayden was amazing, super helpful when we were scared crapless! Totally recommend! Best that we have done in several different states.

Second time for this type of activity with family. We had blast experiences. Definitely will be back.

So much fun and well done! So many different rooms and difficulty levels. Nolan was a great game master. Highly recommend! read more

So much fun for my Moms 75th birthday!! Vampire room was amazing for a large group!!! We had 10 & everyone was able to contribute!!! Can't wait to go back!!! Our game host even had fangs!!! Go, totally worth it!!!! read more

Great first time coming here! Was really fun! I will definitely enjoy coming with my team again!

Awesome escape room! The decor is professional. It's located within the Massacre Haunted House building. You can get a Groupon for $19/person for Pharoh's Tomb room right now, I think. So worth it!! We had 6 in our party, and was bummed when they said 4 strangers would be joining us. And when we found out they were four 9-ish year old boys, we were even more bummed. We wanted an adults night out, and 4 boys that age would most likely be a loud distraction the whole time....but it actually turned out very nice! We all cooperated and escaped with just over 12 minutes to spare. We needed a couple helps because we were a little confused about some clues. We could hear the banging and screams coming from the Dr. Death room - totally doing that one next! I highly recommend this place over the others we've tried... the professional decor makes it so much more interesting! We're going back in March for Dr. Death! read more

Mind Trap Escape Room - We escaped Pharoh's Tomb with just under 13 minutes to spare! - Escape Games Near Me - Montgomery, Illinois

First time here with family! There was 9 of who did the mafia and we were able to complete it just in time! Had a great time!

Great job building the escape rooms here. The puzzles are a lot of fun and there's a good variety. My friends and I have done both the Storm Surge and the Locked Up escape rooms, and had a great time. Looking forward to the Mafia rooms as well. Jessica was a great room master. There should be a prize for Locked Up since it's the hardest. That was was super tough but so fun. Disclaimer, there was a gift for filling out a review but I'd still give a 5/5 nonetheless. read more

Just got done with Pharoah's Chamber and it was a lot of fun! We completed it with 58 seconds to spare! It was just my husband, 12 year old, 11 year old, and myself. We will come back to try another room :) read more

One of most intricate escape rooms we've done. We did the Mafia room Nearly all of the puzzles were well thought out and logical. There was one puzzle that was a bit confusing as there was no indication that the puzzle was complete so we spent a good 10 minutes on it after we had it correct doubled checking everything. A visual or audible clue that it was correct would easily rectify this. Aside from that this was one of the top 5 we've done.Aside from that this was one of the top 5 we've done. read more

Never tried it before and Kenny was out couch. He did a great job showing me how to throw an axe. I sucked at it but got the hang of it after a few dozen throws. lol. Definitely coming back with my son and other friends. read more

We took family here ranging in age from 7 to 60. We had a blast in the Pharaoh's Chamber. It was very challenging but we were able to keep finding clues and building to our escape. We did need some help and the staff was very helpful without giving too much away. We made it out with 3 minutes to spare. The environment and decor were excellent. Much thought and design went into the features and function of the room. read more

Don't walk.... run to this place!!! The sets, the design, and the challenges are out of this world good. These are the best escape rooms we have ever done and our friends come from all around to go with us! VERY friendly staff!!!! read more

This was the BEST escape room I've ever been to, hands down. We did the Mafia room and I'm so impressed with the detail put into each scenario. It basically took us the full 75 minutes, but we made it out with about two minutes to spare. We loved it so much that we immediately did the pharaoh's room after. The game master for our first room was so friendly and fun! He was great with hints and had an awesome personality. I absolutely recommend this place for groups of all sizes!! read more

We did the pharaohs tomb for my dads birthday and it was awesome. None of us have ever done anything like this abs every one of us had a blast solving puzzles and figuring out the tricks to open hidden doors. We worked together, worked individually and almost got to the end. It's incredible how quickly an hour flies by and I'm telling you... we cannot wait to do this again. With so many rooms to choose from there is something for everyone!! read more

First time trying escape room in the burbs and I have to say this was prob one of the best ones I have ever done. We did the collectors escape room and even though we came 15 minutes late the host was so accommodating and really helped us through( without making it too easy). The theme was similar to the movie saw but scare level was around 25%with a couple jump scares. Interesting fact they have props from the actual movie as well. Anyways i loved the different rooms and how interesting the puzzles were. They really expose you to all the senses and are not always the same type of puzzle either. We went with a group of 6 and I would recommend doing this one if you have a fairly new group of friends that want to trial escape rooms. I'm excited to try their other events such as the dr death escape room and also the haunted house! Would def recommend coming here if you want a truly immersive experience and friendly hosts! I heard that the mafia room is one of the most difficult rooms too if you want something more challenging !:) best of luck to all! read more
