Maybe even a great team building adventure with co-workers. The quality of this experience over other escape rooms really sets the tone of future expectation. The waiting lounge was comfortable, everything was sparkling clean, the puzzle was a mind bender, the gamemaster (Arianna) was attentive and focused on our experience being perfect from start to finish! We felt like real VIPs. We want to go back and do all the rooms. It would be great if there was a way to track with a commemorative trinket, or like a digital monopoly game, or buy a special collection shirt for the rooms that we solve! Great experience, highly recommend!

Escape rooms are my jam; so needless to say I was excited to pop in give this place a try. We…read moredecided on the Scooby Doo room since it was my birthday weekend. The cost was $110 for a group of 3 (about $36 per person). It was a private room and I would suggest 3-5 participants as these are narrow rooms. The lobby had a Steampunk design which immediately had my attention. The hallway was narrow and down each hall there was a door that was assigned to each experience. To be honest it didn't look like it would be much due to size but when we entered the room it was cleverly decorated and very engaging. The length of the room was quite deceptive. To be honest I assumed this would be very easy room since I associated the theme to be childlike but no ma'am, no ham, no turkey! They did a great job and at the end offered us each a bottle water and bracelet. They also offered a discount for your next adventure. To be honest if I had the time I would've booked another room ! To top off the experience we received an email reminding us that we did not escape along with a picture of our experience . If you're in the Fayetteville, NC area or anywhere there's an escapology give it a try!

I had Family in town for the weekend and I was looking for something fun and interesting to do with…read morethem after brunch. Then I remembered this little place tucked behind the arch down town! We came in and were greeted so warmly by the owner. I never caught his name, but he was so nice and helped get us all set up to solve a murder. There are a handful of different rooms that you can try, and I already know which one I want to do next. The room we did was recommended because of the fact that there was four of us and we would have space to spread out and all be in on the game. Once we were locked in, we got right to it! You can get clues along the way and there are folks watching you to make sure everything is ok. I am sure they were laughing at us, as we are a very animated bunch! There is a screen in the room to pay attention to, and they will also guide you through a speaker in the corner. The clues and puzzles inside are done really well and are pretty tricky. We missed solving our murder by only minutes!!! We knew who did it, but had a few stumbles along the way getting things done quickly enough. It was still a super fun time, and I know that my Husband and I will come back to try out the other rooms!

This was LOTS of fun. Our group did the R.I.P. Rest in Pieces escape whereby we had to escape from…read morea Serial Killer's Chamber of Horrors before his/her return. The puzzles were well thought out and challenging. If you get stumped, you're allowed three clues for help. You really are locked in a room. But there is a 'panic button' if someone absolutely needs out. You are monitored by camera to ensure safety and adherence to rules. A shout out to Chris who guided us throughout. He noticed someone in our group needing to sit - he immediately brought in a chair. You have 60 minutes to escape. There is a countdown clock in the room. You always know how much time remains. Happy to say, we solved the final puzzle, which produced the key to unlock the door for our escape. It was down to the wire - we beat the clock with 1:42 remaining. Everyone in the group thoroughly enjoyed the experience. This is a fun group activity which I personally highly recommend. It is important to get there at least 15 minutes early as indicated on the web site for an intro video, instructions and sign a waiver. After completion, group pictures are taken against an Escape Room backdrop. Definitely would do this again - different escape of course. Go for it! Good luck!

Parking was pretty easy since Game On is part of an outdoor shopping mall. Importantly, there are two levels to the mall, and Game On is located on the top level. We completed the Odin's Trial room in the allotted time, with a few hints from our gamemaster Spundun :) Everything in the room worked as expected, which is always appreciated. In general, escape rooms feel a little overpriced to me, but we did have fun, so I guess I can't complain! Overall, I'd recommend Game On.

My wife and I recently visited Times Up! and we had a really good time…read more Most of the rooms at Times Up! required 4 or more participants, and since it was just the two of us, our only choice was the Room 555 escape room. Overall, I thought the room was a lot of fun. The moderator was nice, and the room had some good puzzles. My only complaints would be: 1) The text-to-speech computer program used to present the story and clues was a little awkward and clunky, and it definitely made it harder to immerse myself in the scenario. It'd be significantly better if a real person was reading the dialogue. Also, it felt like the background story could have been more interesting, although the clues were fun to figure out. 2) One of the clues was meant to be locked and they left it unlocked, so the moderator had to come in during the scenario and re-lock it for us. Not a big deal, but it did disrupt the event a bit. Overall, I liked Times Up! and would definitely come back.

As someone who has done a lot of escape rooms, Times Up! is a decent place to visit and is…read moreespecially the right type of escape room venue to take people for the first time. I've completed 3 of the rooms at this location and they are all fun and great for groups. However, the quality of Times Up! is simply not as good as other escape rooms that I've been to. Without getting into the details about the rooms or their solutions, my biggest gripe is about the quality of the rooms. The decorations definitely feel antiquated, and the rooms themselves could certainly have more personality to them. I've been to places where the themes go all out and have some pretty unique decorations. While the rooms to each have a theme, some props are clearly cheap. In some instances, doors don't open completely and locks are a bit finnicky to unlock. Plus, the backstory of the room isn't really told by the gamemaster. It's told by a text-to-speech AI on a fuzzy screen. Their speech isn't even free flowing, it's super choppy and odd. As a positive, I love how there are different themed rooms with varying difficulties. I've managed to escape each of the rooms I've attempted and I've always felt satisfied with the team performance after each room. The gamemasters have always been kind and helpful when we ask for hints. And although sometimes the execution isn't perfect, I can appreciate the attempt to try and create unique puzzles. Overall, Times Up! has some redeeming qualities to it that make this place worth trying. If you're looking for the best of the best, there are some other really amazing spots, but if you're looking for just a fun activity on a rainy day then this is the place!
