    My colleagues and I completed The Heist at The Escape Game. Some were skeptical, hadn't enjoyed prior experiences, or were brand new to escape room games. But our game masters welcomed us and started the game before anyone could change their minds! We played The Heist, which is a fun recovery mission for a stole work of art. This game was rated an 8 out of 10 in difficulty. Our group used 4 hints, I think, and completed the room with 13 minutes to spare. There were many puzzles to solve in this room. Some of them were obvious, some hidden. Some were mental, others required more physicality. It was a nice mix of puzzle types, so the game never felt stagnant or predictable. (That's all I think I can write without giving anything away!) Our game master was nice and debriefed us afterward, sharing what she observed of our group and how we worked together. It was fun to hear what she saw and compare it with what we had just experienced. My only critique is that we had 9 players, which was a few too many for the physical space in the escape room. I am glad they accommodate our group but wish they would have split us into two groups or recommended a larger room. Lastly, I've done a number of escape rooms before at different places with different companies. Some of them are quite poor quality; items in the rooms look old, over-used, or dirty. This was NOT the case at The Escape Game. The room felt clean and mostly new and of nice quality. That gets a big thumbs up from me! Overall, this was a fun experience and definitely a location I'd recommend if you need to get your escape room on!

    On a complete whim, we decided to try out an escape game. It was just two of us, but we did the Heist game and had a fabulous time! The game was well paced, challenging, but not impossible, and themed very well! The hosts were kind and explained everything beforehand so we could have a great time. I'll definitely be back!

    Great place. Best Escape games out there. These games really put you into the situation. It feels real.

    The Escape Game is the bees knees. I have completed two of the rooms (and CANNOT WAIT to come back for more!). I have done A LOT of escape rooms and am a firm believer that even a bad escape room is better than no escape room at all. The Escape Game is among the best I have ever done (Definitely top 3, maybe even the best, I'm not sure). Each room is filled with so many nice touches and it's evident that TEG doesn't miss the little details. Both times, I've truly felt transported somewhere else and the multi-room experience really keeps you on your toes and makes you feel like you're constantly discovering something. The clues are difficult, but logical. If you're looking for something different to do with your afternoon- go visit The Escape Game. The prices may seem a little high for an hour's worth of entertainment.....but both times I've been they leave me wanting more. I'll be back soon to try out the other rooms!

    Great experience ! We mentioned it was our sons birthday, staff went above and beyond to make it special! We really appreciated it. We escaped Prison break with 3:39 remaining whew. Much needed fun time in the middle of a pandemic.

    We had an amazing time and escaped the room with 16 seconds to spare! Such a great staff and atmosphere.

    Started off with Jeremy at the front desk and he was friendly, helpful, and just a great guy to talk with.

    We are awful patrons as we showed up late and had to leave early due to a babysitting situation. I…read morewish I knew what we were getting into as I thought their plant night would be an opportunity to try and bring plant life back into our home. I figured there would be instruction and tips and an open forum for questions. And I believe there was all of that, however, nothing that I could actually hear. The woman instructing was very sweet and friendly and put in a bad situation where the room that she reserved was not available or some failing occurred. Everyone should have been given the choice to re-schedule as no one at our table could hear anything. We were asked often if we could hear and every time I shook my head indicating I could not hear but yet she still spent all her time at the other table with a few attempts to come closer to our table when a question/answer session started. It became SO frustrating not being able to hear that I tuned out hoping we'd get home in Time for the sitter, wishing I could just get the supplies and finish in my comfortable, quiet home with no equines within 6 feet of me. NOT the relaxing, enjoyable, therapeutic experience we were hoping for and next time we will spend the 11$ (the fee ON TOP of Groupon pricing you will get charged) on a similar planted/Halloween plant at Michaels Regarding the woman that tried to teach this class I feel bad for her as she may not know how to handle these unexpected situations and may be limited in what she can offer but this was unacceptable.... We were forced to be a bigger part of the bar experience then we would have liked. We got there about 8 minutes late and she checked our names but other people at the table were musing how anyone could have taken their seat as their Groupon was never checked...and we were in the middle of a bar. The people at my table were complaining about the 11$ fee on top of the Groupon fee... young professionals feeling like they got ripped off isn't a way to inspire repeat business... IF THERES A FEE include it in a higher Groupon price so people don't go into it feeling ripped off or leaving feeling even worse when the experience was a failure. I had forgotten that fee but the young professionals had not. Skip the plant nite... even if everything has been as it should have been I believe this group on Would have been a failure either way and I would never recommend or do again... the conservatory has free workshops all the time and often you take things home with you... all for less (admission is 4$) then the "additional fee" with this company

    Had a blast! Great date night and if the people in my group are any indication a great girl's…read morenight out. I like that this company goes to different venues to have painting parties. It allows you to check out a place you might otherwise have never visited which makes it super easy to surprise someone. Guys, make the reservations online and take your lady out to dinner or for drinks and surprise her when the painting party starts! Our facilitator was Rachel and she was awesome. She dumbed it down enough that even I felt like I was doing okay! The fact that they visit different places to hold the parties is probably the reason why there are so few reviews here but the night I went if we had all reviewed there would be twenty more 5 star reviews on here. We all had a good time and it was fun meeting new people and going outside my comfort zone to do something new. Will definitely do this again!

    My Mr. have been here before with this previous job. He highly recommended it. Plus it's only 15…read moreminutes from our home. You can book your reservations online however we decided to pay up at the desk due to the weather. Didn't know if it was going to rain but it turned out to be a gorgeous day. First it is required to sign a waiver then you check in. There are several options. You can choose between the 2,3,6 or 8.5 mile trek. You can rent tandem kayak, single kayak or canoe. We opted for the tandem kayak $86.00 for the both of us and we did the 6 mile round trip. You pick your life jacket, wait for your name to be called out and you take a bus. From there they will drop you off depending on what mile marker you chose. The staff makes sure to explain where to not go and when you have to be back. Make sure you are back by 7:00 pm. Once you get to the river you pick your paddle and kayak/canoe and off you go. You may hit some rough shallow spots but for the most part, it was smooth sailing. Make sure to pack a small cooler for your drinks. Stay hydrated. We also kayaked to Little Miami Brewing and had a couple of libations. That was fun! Overall the whole experience was great and I had a blast. Coming back the staff was super friendly, helpful and laid back. I would definitely come back. This place rocks.

    Fantastic canoe outing in the Little Miami River, facilitated by the Scenic River Canoe Excursion…read moreteam. This was our first time with this company (not first time on this river). The location was easy to find on Round Bottom Road, big grass/field parking lot and well - set up registration area. Getting signed in and life jacket was a breeze. The shuttle to the put-in outside of Miamiville for our "Fletcher" paddle was a quick ride, and our canoe, kayaks and paddles were waiting for us. A staff member was on hand at the river for those needing a push in, but otherwise it was easy to handle on our own. And we were off! There were little rapids on the way for some fun, a few "beaches" for taking a break. It was a Tuesday and we saw people paddling the whole way, but did not feel crowded at all. Saw lots fish, a few turtles and a turkey vulture. We did stop at Little Miami Brewing in Milford for a break which was fun. Return to the car was easy and again staff on hand to take your equipment. Great time and we'll definitely do it again!
