What To Expect

Here’s how it works: You and your team will work together to find clues, solve puzzles, and ultimately complete a mission. Escaping will require teamwork, communication, wits, a sense of adventure, and most importantly: YOU!

Once you arrive, a dedicated game guide will take you on to your adventure and help you as needed. You will have exactly 60-minutes to complete the mission in your adventure and escape.

Choose to play one of seven uniquely immersive games:
- Only Murders in the Building: Help Oliver, Charles, and Mabel find the missing film reel!
- Gold Rush: Find hidden gold in the California hills!
- Prison Break: Complete a daring escape from the evil warden!
- Special Ops: Mysterious Market: Uncover the truth as a secret agent!
- Playground: Complete your report card and get to summer break!
-The Depths: Explore the deep sea laboratory!
-Timeliner: Train Through Time: Save the future!
