Decided to come here after the escape room at westgate was booked up. It was a couples date night, we did the Blackout Motel, and had an amazing time. It was the wives' first time doing one and they both had a great time too. We'll definitely be coming back and doing another room! read more

The Room Escape Games - Blackout Motel solved just in time. - Escape Games Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

I've been to more escape rooms than I have teeth (and I have all of my teeth) and I must say, this was the worst First of all, the context inside of the rooms needs improvement..... tell me why there's a bunch of squares on a table and they require a specific order when the objects aren't even square On top of that, whoever was working tonight seemed like he could care less to be working there, had zero enthusiasm Furthermore, the solve for the room was displayed on a TV monitor 2 rooms separate to the room we were in when we hit the button, I'm not exactly sure how we're supposed to magically see a TV monitor two rooms away as we solve the room It's just not set up in a way that makes any sense The puzzles really had minimal context and solving the room requires you to somehow magically know that as you solve the room you are expected to have one person in one room and another person two rooms away in the room that you thought you already solved It was just a very weird experience to say the least However I will give this 2 stars as the escape room is cheaper than any of the others I've been to Finally, I don't recommend read more

This was my first experience with an escape room. We had so much fun that we booked the Asylum room the next day! 10/10 recommend this place. I will definitely be back soon. read more

Pretty fun room! We played blackout motel. We weren't totally sure that we had finished the game when we did--it seemed like there was still more left to do. Clues were helpful and everyone was friendly. read more

So much fun!! We booked one room and had such a great time that we stayed and did another right after. Definitely recommend if you want to try something new! Will be returning to do the rest of the rooms. The staff was also awesome. read more

Getting there: Located at 9995 W McDowell Rd Suite 108, it's easy to find and there's plenty of parking available. Experience: If you're looking for an exciting and challenging escape room experience, The Room Escape Games in Avondale is a must-visit. My mom and I recently tried the golden treasure escape room (not sure if that's what it was actually called), and it was a blast! We were able to solve the first two rooms, but unfortunately, we ran out of time before we could finish the third. The puzzles were challenging but not impossible, and the room was well-designed and immersive. The staff was friendly and helpful, and they did a great job of setting the scene and building excitement. One hour is definitely not enough time to solve all three rooms, but we're so competitive that we're already planning our next visit. Overall, I highly recommend The Room Escape Games for a fun and engaging activity with friends or family. read more

I was expecting to have a good experience here because of the high reviews but the first red flag we experienced was the phone call. When we called the escape room to tell them that we weren't going to make it 15 minutes early, whoever picked up the phone was so unprofessional. The second one was when we were actually in the room, we kept trying to get a hint and kept pressing the button. We waited for about 7 minutes until someone helped us out so we wasted time there. The third issue we had was when we needed another hint but that item we were supposed to be looking for was missing. It took over 15minutes for the person over seeing us to realize that and instead of giving us our time back, we just had to accept that we wasted that time for no reason. The final issue was when we were in the final room and needed a hint, they gave us a hint to something we had already solved so it showed they weren't actually paying attention to what we were doing. Honestly, I try giving the benefit of a doubt for small businesses like this but it was just one of the worst experiences I've had with an escape room, especially with the amount this experience costed... read more

Great time! 5 of us attempted the Treasure Island escape room and I am happy to report that we escaped!! Woohoo!! It's pricey to play- but most things are these days!! read more

Was super easy to book online, when coming in was greeted and helped right away. Offered drinks (alcoholic and non) and brought into the room. We did blackout motel and it was challenging but fun! The hints were very helpful and needed. Will definitely be coming back to try the other rooms. read more

We had such a fun time doing the Treasure Island escape room! My daughter wanted to try one for her 11th birthday. They made her day extra special by noting her birthday on the sign out front and giving her a cupcake afterwards. We were pretty bad at solving the first few puzzles, and the employees were very gracious in giving us clues (and not counting all of them either...). All of the kids had a blast and I appreciated that The Room went above and beyond my expectations to give my daughter a fun, memorable birthday experience. read more

Honestly didn't know what to expect other than knowing we would be stuck in a room for an hour together! We did Blackout Motel and I highly recommend it. Very clean, friendly staff, lots of photo ops and even a place to "hang" inside if you get there a little early. read more

The Room Escape Games - This TV was our lifeline:D - Escape Games Near Me - Avondale, Arizona

This place is amazing! I'm so glad to see an escape room on the west finally. From the moment you walk in, this place is much different than the rest. I feel like everywhere you go, there is an empty room with a desk to check you in. This place is decorated properly and has a nice waiting area. Our group didn't drink but I still think it's a good idea to have drinks for those who would like it. We did the Blackout Motel and it was great. Usually you get some form of story in escape rooms but this was the first time I felt submerged into the story and actually felt like I was a character in it. The host was actually really funny and had a great attitude from beginning to end, you can tell she likes her job. I would definitely come back to try the other rooms and I would recommend anyone come here to try it out. read more

I visited the escape room with four others on a Wednesday evening. We worked through the Speakeasy room. Serenity was VERY accommodating of our group and did an outstanding job making sure all of our needs were met (drinks served, rules understood, etc.). We had a remarkable time largely due to how welcome we felt. I can't compare the quality of the puzzles to other escape rooms because this was my first experience. However, based on the amount of fun I had I can't wait to go back and try something new. read more

Had an amazing time doing this. The puzzles were a lot more involved than I initially anticipated, and the experience was very immersive. Enjoyed every moment of it and can't wait to try the other rooms! read more

***Some spoilers ahead*** I have mixed feelings about this escape room. We tried the treasure Island, and that experience was great! We loved it so much we decided to come back and do Blackout Motel. *SPOILERS BELOW* Blackout Motel: To begin with, we were told prior to our time starting that there was nothing to with the bed at all or undoing the bed... not true, and should be worded more clearly. We were also told not to undress anything and if it didn't come out easy, then it wasn't meant to come out. Hate to say it but the guy had a jacket on with THUMB HOLDERS holding his hands to the body which prevented us from moving forward! Sooooo annoying and disappointing. To further emphasize the situation, we carried the mannequin and because of the sweater being on the hand, that didn't work either, only come to find out the hand was supposed to come out. Three stars to balance both experience. read more

We brought our Cadette Girl Scout troop here for a fun outing and it did not disappoint! We were able to fit all 10 girls plus two adults in the room at the same time, which was a selling point for us. The girls successfully completed the Treasure Island room with time to spare. It was very organized and the young woman who was the staff support was very helpful. The girls had a great time! read more

Omg Room 187 with Tom was MUCH more complicated than any of us expected. We barely made it about 60% through & that was with help and clues. Lots and lots and lots of surprises. I highly recommend it!! read more

Our group had an awesome time. It was clean and the room was hard but not too hard where it was frustrating. The ambiance was great!

We had a great time as a family doing the treasure Island escape room. Our daughter who is nine had a great time helping us. Totally a fun family activity! read more

Worst escape room I have ever been to. Paid over $100 for this horrible experience. I have done MANY escape rooms in the past and have never been this disappointed. Our game master would not give us extra hints even though we made it clear we did not care about a leaderboard or anything, we just wanted to solve it. Plus the hints we did get were horrible. They did not help in any way and when we asked for a clarification, she took away another hint. The puzzles in the room had to be PERFECT in order for it to work. We had an item placed A CENTIMETER OFF and it didn't work. We even asked why it wasn't working because we knew we dis it right. To that we only got ignored. Please don't waste your time or money here. Also the owner responded to another review extremely passive aggressively so that alone really tells you a lot about this business. Yikes. read more

My wife and I have done all the escape rooms here. We did the asylum one today and were disappointed. **Spoiler** We were told that the corpses are already resting and do not touch them. We have done blackout escape room and I won't spoil that more. Indeed the corpse was a key piece on moving forward for Asylum. This room play was disappointing read more

Usually have a good time and the game masters are typically very attentive and quick however this time Chloe and Jeremiah were our game masters and they took 2+ minutes for clues after being asked but when we touched anything they were quick to tell us not to. Every minute counts with these rooms and it's just frustrating that we weren't given the experience you expect. They also Let us sit there for 7 minutes at the end because the door didn't open without telling us what went wrong so we lost. I don't care about losing, we have lost rooms there in the past, I'm frustrated that we we're basically ignored which added frustration. read more

The waiting room/bar was beautifully decorated and staff was super friendly and helpful! We did the Treasure Island room and had a lot of fun! Our game master was helpful and prompt with hints. The room itself was themed well with decor, lighting, and ambient music/sounds. And since the Treasure Island room has you change from a boat interior to an island, the second room has sand which I thought was a nice touch! The puzzles ranged in levels of difficulty, so the experience didn't feel monotone. The only criticism I have is that the rooms were pretty small so I would recommend sticking with a smaller group (4 people seems like a good amount to me) even though you can book up to 12. I definitely plan on returning and trying out the other rooms and I recommend this business to all, even if you're a escape room expert or if you've never done one before! read more

This is the 4th escape room I have ever been to and hands down the best experience. I have never written a Yelp review but felt compelled after going here. First off all the decor throughout the place is amazing! (Even the bathrooms are beautiful) I wanted to hang out and have a drink but maybe another time. I came with my two sons. We did the Treasure Island room. The minute I walked into the room I was impressed. I had read a review complaining about the sand but they let you know there is no need to dig through it so it really added to the authenticity of the room and we were prepared and wore slides and flops. I'm not a fan of sand either but this sand wasn't like the sand on a beach. We all actually commented how much we all liked it. The clues were challenging and unique. Everything was in proper working order which is a big deal for an escape room. We have been to rooms where things weren't functioning properly and it ruins the whole experience. We used 1 clue and ended up coming out with twenty minutes to spare. Both my boys want to go back and do another room there we had so much fun. It's in a great location also. I'm almost afraid to do another escape room because it will probably be a let down after enjoying a top notch experience! read more

10/10 recommend to come to The Room Escape Games. I planned my sisters 18th birthday here and that made her feel so special with a sign outside, and her name and happy birthday on the screen in the room. They also have a bar with drinks and you can bring the drinks inside the escape room. We did the Blackout Motel and had a blast, it was challenging and unfortunate we did not escape but will be back to do it again!! Wonderful and friendly staff! I can't say enough wonderful things also in a shopping plaza with food, shopping, and more entertainment across the street. read more

My family and I did the Blackout Motel and it was amazing!! I've never done an escape room before but this exceeded my expectations! It's so well thought out and creative, the decorations are well displayed. It was a bit challenging at times but we all loved every minute of it. We completed it with only 8 seconds left!! We are definitely coming back for the Asylum one! The young girl at the front desk is so nice and super cool. The whole experience was awesome and I'd recommend this place to anyone. read more

What a fun and great experience! I wasn't sure what to expect being that it was my first time and my only experience with one was watching an episode of 2 broke girls. Lol. I tried my hand at the Hard level which was a Speakeasy theme (a room that spoke to my inner soul!) And made it out with just minute to spare! It's also an added bonus that they serve alcohol! The only escape room in AZ to do so. read more

My friends and family and I have played a lot of escape rooms in the valley and we ALL agree this one has the absolute best rooms. We've played all of them and got to try the newest one asylum today. Previously blackout motel was our favorite (with the pirate one very close behind) but I think asylum beat it out. These rooms are SO thought out with the best stories we don't feel like we're just completing random puzzles in a random room it really feels like you're in a story figuring out crazy secrets which is our favorite part of the whole experience. take it from someone who's done so many escape rooms all around town when I say these are the most exciting and fun escape rooms and every single one is worth a trip! read more

This was my very first time doing an escape room and I must say it's something everyone should try. The staff were very nice and welcoming. The decor of the place was also really nice. They also have a bar when you first walk in for those who want to drink and try to escape. We chose the speak easy room which was their most challenging room. 10/10 recommend!! read more

This was such an awesome, neat experience. We have never done a escape room & the entire group agrees that this was the most fun we had in a while! We did the "Speak Easy" room. It was super challenging and full of excitement! We just about got to the end & made it out alive with one last clue. We definitely will be back to try the other rooms & recommend our friends. Great date or family night. Full of great surprises & super sweet customer service. read more

What a fun place!! We've done two of the three escape rooms here and both were very fun. The Blackout Motel theme room was our favorite. They also sell beer and wine which is a nice touch for a date night. read more

Had a great time with my sons here. The rooms were not as hot as other rooms we have visited. The staff was friendly and contributed to the good experience. The lobby area is much nicer than other rooms we have visited also. read more

Great team building fun activities. I took two groups from my work and we all had a great time and worked together to solve the puzzles to escape the rooms. They have different levels and hints along the way. I would recommend this for family, friends, or work team building. read more

I must say I was excited to try it out with the kids the turn around was not good I am allergic to dust and the front desk personal advised to go on the treasure island room after going to the second room the sand was going up it was very hard to breath I don't recommend this one for family's with kids or people who are allergic to dust they should really ask customers or aware them of the dust. I personally didn't enjoy that room because it was hard to breath and there is no fan on the second room just on the first one. That's my advice to not go in there with kids or if you have breathing problems. read more

This was our first time ever experiencing an escape room. My 10 year old daughter has wanted to do one for awhile, so we decided to celebrate her birthday here. They have discount pricing for children, which I really appreciated! The set up is clean and very themed. I enjoyed having a drink before from the little bar at the front. While we didn't escape, we had so much fun and will definitely return! read more

Came here with a group of friends and they all liked it, we did blackout and it can be challenging pretty cool room. Only complaint I have is the black lights weren't that strong and we would struggle to find clues with them. read more

Went with family. Three. had done at least one escape room prior and 2 were new. The person who scheduled selected too high level to solve the end storyline but we had fun. In fact we are already planning our next room. We did the train storyline. The staff was great and the room was clean. Enjoyed the entire experience. read more

Our first Escape room, we had a great time in the Treasure Island room, thanks Room Escapes for a fun escape!

The rooms are set up nicely, but the staff gives you unwanted hints and ruins the challenge for you. They tell you, you only get 4 hints, but even though you never ask for help they take it upon themselves to help you out anyway. Was excited to do more after our first visit, but the last two rooms we did were ruined by unwanted help. I Would not recommend this place if you want a challenge read more

Amazing!!!! First impression when you walk in and you have a moment of, do I need to escape from here? The decor is amazing!! They do serve alcohol! The owner is a sweetheart! She's so down to earth! The rooms are very well put together and well done. I understand why they are the best in the valley! read more
