Best escape room we've ever been to and we've been to several throughout North Carolina!…read more The coolest thing about this escape room that's different than other ones we've played is that instead of working mostly out of one room, you work your way through several and the rooms are extremely immersive. There are things to push, pull, grab, slide, swing, and at the end, you actually get to slay the dragon! Unfortunately, there's only one room right now, but they're working on building a new one soon. I can't wait till more opens up. This one's unlike the others and I'm glad that it's closer to us than some of the other great ones we've experienced.

We did the kidnapping one and I have never done an escape room before, but this was so fun.

We did the island escape. At first appearance, the room seemed fairly bare but as we got into the clues things started opening up and the momentum grew!

Once we we started our "room" which was actually more like 3 rooms, plus other surprises, it was clear that tons of effort and planning went into the development which made the experience great. I would highly recommend and cannot wait to go back and try more rooms!

Once inside Addison was very welcoming. We are relatively inexperienced with escape rooms so he gave us some basic tips to set us up for success. We did the Under Pressure room which is themed around a distillery. The room was fun and had some unique puzzles unlike others I had encountered in escape rooms. We definitely had a great time and are already talking about plans to come back!

My group played all three back to back and they're all strong. If you can only play one, I recommend the distillery. Because it's in a historical building, everything has a unique feel. They really made the most of the space. I cannot recommend key to escape enough. Such an amazing hidden gem

My two granddaughters are visiting from Mississippi and I was looking for something fun to do. They…read morehave had experience with escape rooms before so we chose The Sanatarium. When I booked our reservation over the phone, I was told that there would be 7 other people, but that they group people all the time. We ended up with 11 in the group.....the 3 of us and 8 others all related. When we first entered the 'house', there was a very weird unpleasant smell which progressively got stronger the further into the house we got. The rooms were small and very crowded with 11 people. The other group basically took over everything.....did all the opening boxes, inputing codes, etc. We had a black-light flashlight, but they kept commandeering it. Finally in the last room, one of the guys said to give us back our flashlight. Between the smell, the heat (probably from having 11 people closed into such small spaces) and basically being excluded, we were really glad when the hour was over. I would not do it again. A real disappointment.

I've been to Kersey Valley a couple of times before for the outdoor laser tag. Very fun stuff…read more After my brother's and I first experience with an escape room, we decided to try the one here. We chose to do the autopsy room and had a party of 4 adults and one teenager. The room was clean, yet set up as a vintage autopsy room. The background noises was befitting as well. Nothing scary, but the ambience was a bit creepy, lol. You have an hour to solve all the clues to obtain the final key to escape the room. We manage to do it with 10:09 left on the clock. Our game master, Al, was great! He gave us very clear and detail instructions on the room, and also gave clues per request. We only needed 3 of them. He also gave us a brief tour of the grounds on the way to the escape room and also let us in on KV's future escape room projects. I look forward to trying them all out!

We thought we knew good escape rooms having visited a few impressive ones (and a few not so impressive ones) in Charlotte, but Xscape's Curse of the Mummy room put them all to shame! My husband's family lives in Valdese, just 20 minutes or so from this escape room, and when we were looking for something fun to do with his sister for her birthday, we decided to book at Xscape. They only have the one room right now but are working hard to open a second (involving diffusing a bomb, I'm told) in the coming months. The Curse of the Mummy room incorporates amazing props, immersive "scenery," and incredible technology. Seriously, it's the best room we've ever experienced, hands down. I don't want to give away too much, but will tell you that I'm still emptying sand out of my shoes a couple hours after escaping with just a few minutes to spare. ;)
