    Wow!!! I escaped timeliner and this is the coolest. This game combines technology with tradition. The puzzles are classic and complex, some simple yet strategic. The staff were so friendly and so courteous plus we got some goodies and gifts at the end. I highly recommend this if you are in the Nashville area. I was with a group of some awesome friends. We worked together and the surprises in this game are suspenseful. There is typically a discount code or Groupon or a way to get a promotion. You cannot beat the price for the experience that you get!

    We booked an escape room on a whim, and it was so fun!! Staff was so friendly (we loved "Bug"!) and the escape room was very engaging, interactive and clean. We did Gold Rush. We shared a room with four other people but it was great having extra minds involved. We worked super well as a team, and we escaped! Would do again!

    A high quality escape room run by passionate 'escapees'. You can tell they take great care to ensure the rooms are immersive and engaging. The themes are fun and detailed while still challenging. The hosts are super friendly and love what they do. Ryan was an excellent host and went out of his way to answer questions and ensure we were able to maximize our time. If you are looking for a group activity or team building exercise that is engaging and fun look no further.

    We had such a BLAST here at Escape Game Downtown Nashville! I absolutely loved working with the staff, they were all so kind and easy to work with! We had a group of 18 people and had to reserve two rooms. We were hosting an annual family classic competition that we do every year and the staff was so thoughtful to incorporate our event by joining in on the competition and wearing team red and team blue colors along with getting fun gifts themed with our colors as well! We didn’t expect that and it made the experience that much more personable for us! Thank you guys for some great memories in Nashville! Much love, from Dallas!

    We had so much fun we went back the next day to do a different room. Eric was awesome, hyped us up, and gave us perfect clues. We have done escape rooms before with other companies, but this is by far the best quality and challenge we've had. We will definitely be back.

    LOOK NO FURTHER! Do NOT HESITATE to book! When i tell you this business went ABOVE and BEYOND to provide the most EXCEPTIONAL experience, THAT is an understatement! My boyfriend and I came into town to visit and did the escape game (prison break) on Saturday 8/28 at 1 pm with Pat as our game leader and we were so shocked by how FUN it was, how incredibly nice, informative, engaged and overall perfect Pat and the rest of the workers were. It was my boyfriends birthday and they even set up AN ENTIRE BIRTHDAY BANNER AND CARD FOR HIM!!!!! I almost cried it was so perfect. He and I were so shocked and appreciative. I was a little weary that it would be a little game for kids but were we wrong! It was the perfect challenge, it was so much fun and you can go with 2- even larger groups! Definitely doing this again and so excited they are bringing a Kansas City location! 5 starts does not suffice. This location, atmosphere, game, challenge, and people are all absolutely amazing. Highly recommend !!! Book ASAP!

    We had a great time escaping from Gold Rush! We have done other escape rooms in other cities but this was one of the best we have ever done! The employees were super nice and helpful. It was perfect for a group of 4- 6 people. Overall it was a great experience and I highly recommend it!

    Took our grand teens and had a great time. Really don’t believe we would have gotten out without the wonderful clues but liked the way Cally gave them to us without making us feel stupid. What a great time.

    We did Prison Break and Gold Rush. Both were incredibly fun. Prison break definitely is best suited for at least 4 people. 2 is possibly do-able but you get separated in cells. Gold Rush was incredibly fun as well. Our Game masters were Andy and JD who were both incredibly helpful and nice. The game master that helped us checking in, Frank, he was also very nice and helpful. He hooked us up for sure. He talked us into doing Gold Rush and The Ruins (done next day) in addition to us already doing Prison Break. I'm not upset one bit about it and do not regret it! Super great atmosphere overall :)

    This was AWESOME and so was Eric, our guide. This room (Timeline Train) was different for us as it is pretty high tech. Did it with just myself and hubby, so I recommend having 2 more people with you, it would be helpful having 2 more sets of eyes. Soooo fun! Such a cool concept!

    Naya was amazing and the best game master we could ever hope for! We played the the train time traveling room with a group of adults and an eight year old and she was able to give us all of the gentle guidance we needed to successfully escape! The room had tons of surprises and even a small jump scare that had us all laughing. Their merch was awesome and had shirts tailored to each room you escape from. Every staff member we met was also so kind and welcoming. I wish we had more time to do the other rooms! We got to preview the other rooms and saw an amazing art heist room and scarily realistic prison room. I’m willing to bet someone has to reach into the toilet in the prison cell! Can’t recommend this place enough!!

    So much fun! Proud to say we beat the hardest level room, Prison Break, which is a 9 out of 10 difficulty with just 4 people. We even finished with 16 minutes and 30 seconds still on the board! YAY!!!! Our friends are big escape room fans and have done a handful with friends and family. We agreed that this expereince was one of our top favorites. The four of us thought the quality of the room and the puzzles were very good. Very much like a movie set. I really enjoyed the diversity of the puzzles and clues, it really helps tap into different people's way of thinking.We were excited to see that there was more than one room to go into which we loved! Although, we didn't ask for clues, the staff gave us a few small ones when they saw we were close or stuck a bit. They even gave us a heads up before we started that we were doing the hardest room with a 25% success rate. (GO US!) When we finished they gave us stickers and took this photo for us. Overall, we had a blast and highly recommend The Escape Game in Nashville! Now I am addicted! Thank you so much!

    We were in Nashville this past weekend with a large group. While making our plans, we decided to do an escape room! After a quick internet search, we came across the Escape Game Nashville downtown. We set up a group game for "train travel through time". Our group has done many escape rooms before, and this one was one of our favorites! It was well thought out, challenging yet fun, it was in great repair and awesome use of technology and theme. The staff was great from setting up the reservation, check-in, and orientation to the room. Most impressive and deserving of a shout-out was Eric at the front desk. So pleasant and welcoming, we started chatting with him while waiting, and he went above and beyond in helping us find dinner reservations for our large group of 17 that evening. His recommendations were outstanding, and we had a wonderful time. It was totally outside of his job description, but his generosity was very much appreciated! Thank you so much for a great afternoon and helping us have a wonderful evening as well!

    Byron and Zach are the beeeeeeest!!! Hands down our best Escape Game experience! Byron was an amazing game guide and Zach the perfect host. Can’t recommend them enough. We did Timeliner and Gold Rush - both great!!

    The escape room was a great break from Broadway. We had a great time and we escaped! I don’t want to give to many clues but I would recommend it for a family on vacation. We all had a great time figuring out the clues. Staff was very friendly. I recommend this place.

    We had the best time! Meg was amazing! She was so fun and we had the best time with our friends!

  • 4/5 Lee W. 5 months ago on Google
    A solid escape experience! Jules did a great job as our game guide as well! Only thing I wish was different was being grouped with strangers. You can pay for all of the room's slots to have a private experience, but that's a bit too much at 8x~$36. Our partners were awesome to play with, but unfortunately if the other group decides to use a hint, there's nothing stopping it. I'd prefer to fail than escape with help.

  • 5/5 Brittany A. 10 months ago on Google
    Conner and Kizzie were great! My friend and I did the Heist escape room and made it out with 5 minutes left. They gave great hints and Conner helped us celebrate afterwards.

  • 5/5 Jennifer F. 4 months ago on Google
    We played Gold Rush for a company team building and really enjoyed it. The rooms were interactive and challenging. Meg and Andy, our game guides, provided us with just the right amount of coaching and hints to help us crush our escape. Thanks for a great event!

  • 5/5 Christos S. 1 year ago on Google
    We did the gold rush and it was really fun. The rooms are quite small so it's a bit tight in terms of number of people. There were 7 of us and that was pushing it. I think 5 people is probably the perfect number for the style of game and to give everyone something to do. The 7 of us managed it with 10 minutes to go and only 1 hint. Really good fun and the sets are designed well. The puzzles are good. Not too easy and not too hard.

  • 5/5 Vanessa C. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a blast doing this! This was our first time and we all had an amazing experience! We did Gold Rush! We are hooked for life! Definitely doing this again and again!

  • 5/5 Eric K. 1 year ago on Google
    We had an amazing time. We actually tried “gold rush”earlier today and it was so much fun that we came back and experienced “the heist”. My teenage boys got really involved and we escaped both times. It was the first time we had experienced it. We all thought that it was a very good time. Will definitely do it again. Zack and Shauntee were incredibly nice and helped us along since it was our first time. They made it easier to work through. Definitely recommend. Give it a try!

  • 5/5 Hannah D. 2 years ago on Google
    My girlfriends and I did the new Timeliner room and it was SO fun! I love all the themes that are built into the one room. We escaped with 2 minutes to spare (and 500 hints thanks to our awesome guide Joey!)

  • 5/5 Brandie C. 2 years ago on Google
    My husband and I wanted to do a day date to celebrate our 17th wedding anniversary. We decided to do the Prison Break at the Nashville Escape Room. It was definitely hard, but we had a great time. Brandon was our guide and was amazing with his hints. He and Caroline were so much fun and friendly. We had such an awesome time we bought gift cards as Christmas gifts so we can come back and do it again with our kids! Highly recommend doing this adventure!! And ask for Brandon!

  • 5/5 Isabella G. 2 years ago on Google
    So fun and amazing crew! I’ve done a couple rooms here and every single one has so many intricate details. Definitely some of the best escape rooms I’ve ever done. To top it all off the staff are all amazing. You can tell they hire people who really love what they do and it shows. They’re so happy to give sneak peaks of the rooms and tell you all about them (no spoilers though!) They also went the extra mile when I came for my sisters birthday and really made the escape special. Loved this place so much!

  • 5/5 Chris P. 2 years ago on Google
    I have done a lot of escape rooms and this by far has been my best experience. While I was in Nashville (from Boston) I ended up doing two great escape rooms with the most high quality rooms I have seen so far. The staff was also truly amazing!!

  • 5/5 Katie S. 2 years ago on Google
    We tried our first escape room to kill some time and now we're addicted! We did the Gold Rush room and it was great. One surprise in particular was super fun and memorable. Try it and find out!!

  • 5/5 Amy B. 2 years ago on Google
    We loved the heist! Hailey was truly amazing took the time to connect with us. We could tell she has love for her guest. Will be requesting her if we play again! Highly recommend. We were a little concerned our youngest would feel left out and she complimented him on things we didn't even notice and made him feel good!

  • 5/5 Melissa L. 2 years ago on Google
    The people at Escape Game Nashville are the best. They asked why I was in town and I told them I was there for my graduation. At the end of the game they had this very thoughtful card for me signed by the whole crew. Definitely unexpected and very appreciated. Great customer service and wonderful experience. Will come again next time I am in Nashville!!

  • 5/5 Dylan E. 2 years ago on Google
    Great experience. Staff was super fun, nice, and helpful. We did the Gold Rush room and it was a perfect difficulty for us as this was only our second escape room we've ever done. Bring your thinking cap and some outside the box thinking!

  • 5/5 Aida S. 1 year ago on Google
    I'm 61 from Puerto Rico living in Florida, I mean were fun is every day, but love country music and always wanted to visit and to tell you the truth, this was more fun than we expected, Thank you Shawnte for helping us out. It was super fun.

  • 5/5 LifeThroughEm'sEyes 1 year ago on Google
    What a fun hour! I really dislike escape rooms but this one was such a blast! I was able to figure out some of the puzzles and it was super rewarding! Our game conductor was so sweet and we just had such a great time! I recommend choosing this one because we loved ours and even I who does not typically like escape rooms loved this one! We did the train travel one and it was so fun! We also took a four year old in and he had fun!

  • 5/5 Leila D. 2 years ago on Google
    A group of us went to Nashville for a week and planned on doing one escape room at this location. We all loved it so much we ended up doing five and we are five for five! We played rooms with just our group and teammates and had a blast every time. The best part of our experience was our game overlord Luis! He helped us through three escape rooms and recommended another room at a different location! It was so fun lifting our arms, swallowing our pride, and shouting "LUIS WE NEED A CLUE!" Such a great experience at this location!

  • 5/5 Katie A. 1 year ago on Google
    So much fun! Megan was a great game host. Max players is 8, if you have less then you will likely get paired up with other people which is fun. Work together and make sure everyone feels included, there are no dumb ideas when it comes to finding the clues. We escaped with 11:02 to spare 😎

  • 5/5 Japheth J. 1 year ago on Google
    This is the best place for escape games! I have done several games at multiple locations. The staff is always really great and display a level of excitement that really adds to the experience. Highly recommend if you love escape games, or board games, or just a socially fun challenge.

  • 5/5 Jesyka P. 1 year ago on Google
    We had an amazing experience!!! We did Gold Rush and it was a blast! There were so many unexpected twists and turns that kept it so much fun. Megan was our guide and was wonderful! Definitely recommend and plan on doing again next time we are in town!

  • 5/5 Amanda C. 1 year ago on Google
    We had an amazing trip to the Escape Game! Megan checked us in and she was so friendly and helpful. We did the Gold Rush room. The puzzles were unique and unexpected. Lots of surprises. Zach was the best game host. He was a lot of fun and never let us down for our clues. Highly recommend!!!

  • 5/5 Michael �. 1 year ago on Google
    Brought my cousins and brother here on a Saturday morning just to hangout and had a great experience! The game was thought provoking, Emily (our game master) was awesome, and we even escaped with under 2 mins to spare!

  • 5/5 Rebecca B. 1 year ago on Google
    This was one of the coolest experiences EVER!! There’s a reason they have 5 stars. Definitely a challenge and keeps you entertained. I only wish it lasted longer! Andy helped us out and he was great. Super friendly and made our visit even more enjoyable. The whole staff was actually super nice. If you’re debating checking this out, JUST DO IT. You’ll be so happy you did.

    Meg was AMAZING. She helped us in the game, but also let us preview the other rooms and get excited about rebooking! Highly recommend checking these out. We’ve done a lot of escape rooms, and this one was the most detailed by far.
