There's not a lot to do that isn't a bar in... Western Oregon honestly, and Conundrum House is solving it. For insanely reasonable prices (that lower even further with membership) you can rent table space for RPGs, gaming time on video games, attend costume events, themed tea parties (with incredible gnosh), enjoy interactive murder mysteries and far more than I'm going to take time to list here. All in a beautiful building full of art and whimsy run by incredible, enthusiastic people. They support local artists, writers, game creators and creatives of all sorts in a way you don't often see in this area. So comfortable it's a bit like going home, and every inch of it was made with the intent to build fun artistic and creative community upward. The owners are amiable, chatty, and proud of what they've accomplished, and they should be. Need something to do outside of the same old drudgery? Get here! Check it out, inquire within, look them up, they deserve the community's support. They opened six months before Covid and managed to survive it, if that doesn't scream worthy business, I don't know what does. It's nested on the second floor so pay attention to the sandwich board on the sidewalk, it's totally worth a short trip up the stairs. I recommend checking this out heavily. Perhaps the most check-outtable place I've ever reviewed. We will definitely return.

We are always excited to check out games we haven't tried before and love taking friends with us when we go. We've purchased puzzles and even robots for family gifts. They have single to multi-player available. Their LARP games can play several people to hundreds! When we're in the gameroom it's very convenient that they have snacks, hot and cold beverages ready. They are also so involved in the community. They offer weekly puzzles in the local newspaper, they participate in Buy Local First Corvallis annually and are engaged with the arts and business community downtown and beyond. Check them out today!

I've…read moredone many escape rooms but mostly from the same company so it was cool to check out a new company. I'd definitely recommend this one and hopefully will do more of their rooms. Krocbuster was a challenge! We definitely needed all our clues and hints and the host was helpful for those. It's a small room and was hard to divide and conquer. The whole group was always kind of focused on one thing and that held us up. With all the help we got, we were JUST shy of "escaping." We could have done it with two extra minutes.

I wish I could tell you about the Salem EscapeTech's "SAVE THE ASYLUM" escape room, but, you know…read morethe rules ... no spoilers! I will say that Staff was friendly, humorous, attentive, and accommodating, (Thank You, Hunter, Great Job!), and the experience was challenging, entertaining, absorbing, mentally exhausting (an hour is just right), and surprising. This was a birthday gift (thank you, kids!), and all three couples had a GREAT TIME, and we are all ready to go again. This was our first escape room experience, and will certainly not be our last. As a matter of fact, the ladies are already planning our return to EscapeTech. Will it be the Sherlock Mystery room, or the Doctor Jones Study Heist room? Highly Recommended. Richly deserved Five Stars.

This place offers at least one great escape room, and I'm eager to try the others. We booked them…read morefor a grownup birthday party. We provided the party room (the common room in an apartment complex) and they brought the puzzles, the props, the ambiance, and great show-runners. They totally transformed the common room into a magician's lair, with a nice story and a fun setup. The goal of the setup was to unlock six or so locks, which would allow the magician to escape the box of death. In order to unlock the six locks, we had to unravel about 20 puzzles, which I won't describe here because I don't want to spoil them. I appreciated, though, that the puzzles were all different kinds of puzzles, so everyone could find something they could contribute. The magician themed room was medium-hard. I am told they have some rooms that are easier and some rooms that are harder. We are looking forward to doing their more challenging room at some point in the future. I also appreciated that the people working the event stayed in character and provided a lot of good energy. We had about 20 people at the party, so they had to run the escape room two times. It took about 15 minutes between runs to reset the room. They packed up in half an hour and left the room in great shape. We couldn't be happier with this booking, and I am already fantasizing about booking them again for another room.

You follow the signs to the second floor. There is a door and a check in area. The door lead to the control room. We waited outside until someone showed up. We signed a waiver they we waited down a hall to the escape room. There are two types of room available. The Spy's Safe house and the Dialed in. The spy's safe house is the easier of the two. According to the website, the safe house has a 84% success rate and the dialed in has a 33% success rate. Both rooms have the same rate, which is $25.00 a person. My friend booked the Dialed in room. I have never done a escape room so I cant really compare it to others. We were unable to complete the room within the time frame. It was still fun and I would like to do it again. However there are things they could work on. First is the room gets hot and I don't believe there is AC. The man running the room, told us to prop open the door if we got to warm. There is a fan blowing but you get 6 adults breathing heavy and it gets HOT. We were given directions on how to start but it was kind of like running around with your head chopped off. That might be the norm for escape rooms but I can understand why they have a low success rate. It seemed like the clues didn't follow a path to success. I know that's vague but I'm not going to give away anything and ruin your experience. If you miss one step you are doomed to fail. They do change the rooms up so its not always going to be the same. Right now they are doing a promo for the 'eclipse-themed' room. Which will run until August. You get a free pair of eclipse viewing glasses after your done. Its part of the normal rooms. After you are done, you can take a picture holding a funny sign saying you escaped or you failed. They uses the picture on there Facebook page. In closing they need to make it easier to find and make it easier to check in. Cool down the rooms.

During the game play we could ask for clues, we needed many, ha, ha. The clues they gave were helpful and helped us push on to eventually solve it with only less than a minute on the clock. We did the Tales from the Attic room. I won't give away any of the room, I will only say it was kind of like a mystery game of hang man to fill in the clues as we found them. It was different than other escape rooms I have done, but it was fun figuring out the clues to fill in the puzzles. I believe they have 4 different escape rooms here and I am sure they are all just as fun. If you are looking for a fun group activity, work outing, birthday party, etc. I would recommend an escape room and if in the Portland area check out Escape Games PDX. If you solve the game, you can pick a little key trinket as well and go up in the leader board if you solve it fast enough. We unfortunately did not make the leader board. Enjoy!

We did the Prison Heist room because a couple of us had never done an Escape Room before and it seemed like a perfect starter room. Loved that the room is non-linear and the clues were all cohesive. You had a choice of dressing the part as they had inmate costumes readily available. The door is never locked so you can get out if needed. Also, for this room, there is no clock. Your gamemaster will let you know once you have 30 and 10 minutes left. Jake gave us fantastic clues and didn't make us feel like idiots for asking. I feel like we asked for only maybe a handful of clues. We escaped with about 11 minutes to spare. Loved that they had merch for each specific room. Makes it easier to grab a souvenir. We also were able to pick out a tiny key as our prize for escaping. Cute touch. Good job, Escape Games PDX!

I was the only one who had much experience in escape rooms, so although we did not make it out together we still had a great time solving the clues we could. The room was quite interactive with several elements you had to engage with in just the right way, rather than just a series of locks to open. Definitely challenging for us but maybe that just means we need to come back and have more practice!
