    We made it out of secret society with less than a minute to spare! The room theme, construction, and puzzles all tied together very nicely. I highly suggest this room and location, although be warned it was quite difficult and some of the clues very conceptual. The staff (Leandros and Alma) were super nice and helpful. 10/10 would go again!

    My Wife and I recently booked for the Pawn Shop. Our Game Guide, Maya, was a terrific clue giver and an even better story teller. As soon as we entered the room I could feel myself transforming into Big Al himself (Big Al was the pawn shop owner). The first room (which was supposed to be an alley way) was nice and damp, which felt really good on my old saggy skin. Unfortunately, my 300 pound wife took up most the hallway so the first puzzle was a struggle for us. Any who, we finally got into the second room (which was much larger for my fat wife to move around in), and I felt at peace in my natural habitat. I grew up watching pawn stars with my 2 dads and it really brought back memories from back in my days. Today, My Wife and I decided to come back to see good ol Maya and run their Secret Society Room. Unfortunately my Wife got stuck on the slide. Luckily Maya came in with the WD40 and got up in my wifes rolls to get her unstuck. What a champ. I owe my life savings to Maya, and my great great grandads life support money that I recently fought my sister for in court. If I could give 6 stars to Maya I would. We will definitely be back soon.

    Made a reservation here a week in advance with a deposit, only to find out when we got there that they didn’t have it. Then we waited for 20 minutes while they tried to get us a room, and offered us a ridiculously high price. We left without getting to do an escape room, and never got our deposit back.

    Our team had the privilege of embarking on a thrilling team-building adventure at the escape room in Princeton, NJ. From the moment we stepped into the enigmatic corridors, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement and camaraderie. Maya, our proficient Dungeon Master, seamlessly guided us through the captivating narrative, her enthusiasm adding layers to the mystique surrounding us. We took on the challenge of deciphering two escape rooms back to back, each room unraveling a unique storyline that encouraged collaborative problem-solving and hearty laughter. The puzzles were well-thought-out and ingeniously intertwined with the theme, pushing us to think outside the box, together as a team. Maya’s expertise and delightful demeanor enriched our experience manifold. Her hints were timely yet subtle, ensuring we were challenged yet never frustrated. She was a catalyst in transforming a room of colleagues into a unified force of problem-solvers. The joy of cracking codes, the uproar of laughter at missed obvious clues, and the exhilarating rush of escaping the room as a more bonded team is an experience we will cherish. This adventure didn’t just challenge our intellect, but also left us with lasting memories and stronger camaraderie. The professional setup, the intriguing narrative, and above all, the exceptional guidance by Maya, made our outing a remarkable one. We left the escape room not just with a sense of achievement, but with closer bonds and joyful hearts. We wholeheartedly recommend this experience to any team looking to blend fun with personal and collective growth. The escape room in Princeton, NJ is a treasure trove of exhilarating challenges that promise a fun-filled learning experience under the adept stewardship of a Dungeon Master like Maya.

    Jared did a great job running the room. Very friendly and did a good job with his pitch. Also, this facility seems to have upped there game since the last time I was there a few years ago. The puzzles were good and had a lot if interesting components that they didn't have the technology for in the past. The production value is much higher, too. It was a fun time! I'll have to go more often now.

    We had an amazing time in the train heist room! This was our kids' first time (ages 10 and 13) and everyone had a blast. There were tons of puzzles that were all so different. Our puzzle master Maya was great, gave us just a few hints but not too many. Wonderful experience!

    First time ever doing an escape room and this was a ton of fun. I never knew I was into this sort of thing until trying it out with my co workers. I loved the riddles and the puzzles that we had to do and this was an overall great experience. Would totally recommend this for a fun team building experience! I want to go back and try the other levels!

    Awesome rooms! Me and two coworkers came here after work, ended up doing two in a row, and had a blast!! Maya was an amazing game master too. She gave great hints ;) We will definitely be back!

    A great activity for groups and birthdays. Much better than a dinner. Staff was amazing, Leighanna was a great help, a great attitude, make sure to have her as your game master.

    Great Escape Room Area. Thank you to Maya for helping us. It was great fun for the whole family. I highly recommend it. Super simple process to get in we got great photos after the escape room and it was an hour well spent. Thank you very much again Maya!!

  • 5/5 Anne D. 7 months ago on Google
    We came at 10 something on a Sunday so it wasn’t crowded at all. We played the Speakeasy game and our game master Maddy was great! Super fun and highly recommend doing in the earlier part of the day.

    Amazing escape room. Couldn't have done it without our amazing Game Master Sir Guy (Jack). Bro is definitely part of the shadow wizard money gang.

  • 5/5 Max M. 6 months ago on Google
    Super fun experience! Our friend group did the prohibition themed room and had a blast. Shout-out to Sophia for setting us up and helping throughout! Would love to return again soon.

  • 5/5 Geoff D. 8 months ago on Google
    The Gm we had, Cassidy, was super helpful. She thoroughly explained the rules, the clues she gave were vague enough that we could decipher them quickly, and they were all around great. The room that we (my 10 year old step-daughter and myself) chose was The Knights quest, we were 2 puzzles away from completion. Bring your "A game" because this room was the real deal. Super intriguing and immersive. 10/10 great experience.

  • 5/5 Kayla B. 5 months ago on Google
    The escape room was so fun! We did a beginner room and it was challenging for the four of us in our family. We sadly didn’t win but Leighanna was a great game master and helped lead us through and ensured we had lots of fun. I would definitely come back!

  • 5/5 Stephen N. M. 8 months ago on Google
    Had a great time! Just the right amount of challenge, and some very cool locks and clues. Cassidy was an excellent game master, very friendly and funny!

    We had such a fun time doing our escape room! My 11-year-old nephew especially enjoyed it and did a great job with the clues, but the adults also enjoyed it. Maya, our game master, was so friendly and made it enjoyable for us, and she gave us just the right clues when we needed them!

  • 5/5 Gillian D. 6 months ago on Google
    When I tell you this was by far the best amazing escape room location my friends and I have been too. Not only is Maya polite, funny, and truly amazing at her job, but let me tell y’all about that horse. We have NEVER had so much fun taking an after game photo ever. This was amazing. I love this place.

    Family had an amazing time after moving our daughter out of University for the summer. Great staff and a challenging yet fun room! Thank you everyone at the Princeton Escape Room!

  • 5/5 Nhi N. 1 year ago on Google
    We went here to celebrate my birthday and we had so much fun! We played The Knight’s Quest room and got out with only 5m to spare since there were only 2 of us. The room has so many well-thought clues hidden around. We love how the room can balance out with clues that need to be solved individually and clues that need multiple people to solve it together. This room has clues all over and some clues are very interactive and well-designed. The story is well-structured and great to follow! Our game master, Maya, was very adorable and nice! She observed and knew when we were stuck to provide additional clues, but she also left us time to solve puzzles by ourselves so we experienced all kinds of excitement!

    Amazing experience here at the Amazing Escape Room Princeton! It had us thinking hard for an hour straight. (These rooms have an emphasis on puzzle variety). And even though we were not good enough to beat the puzzles, the staff members, Cas and Sophia, did an excellent job of building up our spirits after our failure. An overall rewarding visit. Will definitely be recommending this to my friends, and cannot wait to go again. This is one of the few escape rooms I've visited that really go all the way with their themes, to fully immerse you in the story.

    Wonderful fun place. We had Great Train Heist. It was fun to put puzzle pieces together, and important to get clues!! Nat is very helpful. Will come back. My son loves it for his birthday.

  • 5/5 Vivi E. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a blast! We had the hardest room and barely made it if it wasn’t for our masterful Game Master, Nat! He totally helped clarify areas where we were misinterpreting clues which would have costed us the game! He was a great help and the room was really awesome and clever! Definitely returning!

  • 5/5 James Matthew F. 1 year ago on Google
    An amazing time!!! Beautiful setting, challenging puzzles, clear hints(when needed) and a fun professional staff! Jared and Ro were so helpful and sweet. We did this as a film crew hang out and loved working together and solving the game. Down to the wire with 56:43. 10/10 recommend

  • 5/5 Colin L. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a great time doing this escape room with my friends. We were struggling most of the time with it, but overall it was a great experience. Maya was very helpful throughout our experience.

  • 5/5 James S. 1 year ago on Google
    Our game master Maya was excellent. Very attentive to our "limitations" when solving the puzzles. She helped up just enough to finish before the time elapsed without doing all of the work for us. She is very good at this role. Had a GREAT TIME!!

  • 5/5 Jhutch (. 1 year ago on Google
    Wonderful experience! I took 3- 12 YO girls and our hosts were lovely. We had such a good time. They gave enough hints to keep everyone engaged and a having a great time even when we were completely stumped!

  • 5/5 joshua l. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing Escape Room (Princeton) was awesome! Our game master was fantastic and the Speakeasy room was so accommodating for our large group! We had so much fun looking for the clues and overcoming the obstacles as a group. It was a great team building activity for our volunteer team! We highly reccommend

    Went here while visiting family. We chose Speak Easy. Jared our puzzle master was very helpful and welcoming. The room was challenging and we had a great time solving the puzzles. Will definitely visit again.

  • 5/5 Jules W. 9 months ago on Google
    Very good experience for a fun date night! Sophia was excellent and made us feel very welcome. Definitely will be back to finish all of them!

  • 5/5 Sharon R. 10 months ago on Google
    We had such a fun time! It was our first time and although we didn’t escape we enjoyed trying to find the clues. Our host Sophia was so helpful and friendly.

  • 5/5 Kristina K. 10 months ago on Google
    Maya was our game master and she was great! It was my first time doing an escape room and it was challenging without being too difficult to the point of losing interest. A great activity to do with any friends or family!

  • 5/5 David B. 9 months ago on Google
    Maya was awesome! She got us hyped up and was a great host. Did the robbery room and completed it thanks to her!

  • 5/5 Jen S. 11 months ago on Google
    Maya was absolutely fantastic! She was super helpful, friendly, and patient with our large group! This was our first escape room experience and we had so much fun with her as our game master 😊

  • 2/5 Susan T. 8 months ago on Google
    Not so amazing. Our family have been to escape rooms in 3 different continents (some of us to over 50+ rooms, some to over 100+). We love local escape rooms and wanted to try this one out. First of all, it was a busy day for them so I understand the craziness that goes with that. But management should've anticipated it and staffed accordingly. There were not enough people managing the front. The lobby was crowded and chaotic (one plus, the lobby was very uniquely decorated with board games on the walls...that was cool). Secondly, once we were finally sent to our escape room (The Great Train Heist), we were told that we couldn't get a clue until the first 10 minutes and any clues after that would have to be 10 minutes apart. Basically, that means you can't get more than 5 clues IF you start asking for clues immediately after the first 10 minutes. Now, we are shameless when it comes to asking for help. If we are stuck, we are stuck. But we usually don't need more than 3-4 clues. We didn't ask for a clue until about 15 minutes in, which means we were limited to 4 clues max. Some of the first puzzles were straightforward but after that, we had quite a bit of difficulty. We asked for a clue and it took a minute or two to get a response (again, I understand...it was busy), but that also eats into our puzzle time AND our hint time. We got through a decent amount and then hit another wall. We were near the end of solving and asked for a clue. We still had enough time for 3 more clues. We ended up stuck on this one puzzle for the entire rest of our time in there. ALL THREE REMAINING CLUES were used for this ONE puzzle and we basically had to sit and wait for the next clue. The clues were not very clear to us and the waiting game sucked. We still tried to figure stuff out while waiting but never did and failed the room. We don't mind failing a room if we had a good time doing it. We did not have a good time. We will not be returning.

    Had a wonderful time in the train heist room. Would definitely recommend for anyone of any skill level. And the associate that helped us out, Sophia, was wonderful as well. They were very kind and helped make the experience even better.
