    The Alice in wonderland room was very fun. Lots of riddles and puzzles. Escaped with 15 minutes left. Can't wait to try their other rooms. The staff was helpful and the clues let us still feel like we were solving the puzzles, just a nudge in the right direction. Even our 6 year old was able to help with a couple puzzles.

    We did the senators office. The puzzles were great and unique. There aren't red herrings which we appreciate. The puzzles were at a good level of difficulty. Some math was required but the staff helps out if your math skills aren't great. The story is good, there is a true sense of purpose. None of the puzzles were meandering or far off base. It was very chronological. The staff was awesome and was great at providing hints. The room is high tech but not complicated and doesn't come off as obnoxiously over teched. We are excited to try their other rooms. They do Groupon specials so check Groupon before you book. Good luck!

    Our team of four completed the Crime Scene Room. It was challenging but not overly difficult. We had a lot of fun. The staff was awesome and really friendly, really took the time to explain the rules and everything to the remainder of our group who hadn't done an escape room before. Can't wait to try their Mad Hatter room!

    I was skeptical, but we had a great time. Not at all easy but great fun for adults

    Very fun! We went here with some friends and coworkers for a fun night out. We were split into two rooms, so not only were we trying to escape our room, but also get out more quickly than the others. It was challenging but still fun and the staff definitely makes sure to provide enough clues if needed.

    This place was a blast! It was our first escape room experience, so we were pretty unsure what to expect. We had a group of 7 people booked for the Mad Hatter room. It took us 40 minutes, but we were able to solve all the riddles. It was definitely challenging and an amazing experience for our group. We will definitely be back to try the other rooms. Thanks guys! :)

    The room was nice but had a little too much math to be enjoyable. It felt like the limit for solving the room for my group of 2 was to do all the math or to solve somewhat tedious puzzles. Like counting marked bills (so scanning each bill with a uv mark on it or doing math without a calculator). We were constantly on the right track and really did not need hints whatsoever. Staff is nice and friendly and room was clean and somewhat interesting.

    We choose criminal scene and we liked it. It was our first time at the escape room and it was not very difficult how we thought, but unfortunately we failed :/ ( we were so close) :D Overall highly recommend for everyone and definitely we will try another rooms. Thank you for great experience.

    Don't go here! Business closed its doors and didn't contact previously booked parties, so now I have to try to get reimbursed. Phones disconnected.

    My group of 6 did the Crime Scene room and it was the perfect amount of challenge. Curtis was awesome and super helpful. We had a great time and made it out. We plan to do the other rooms too soon.

    Showed up, door was locked and no one was there. Not sure how you can take an appointment and not honor the reservation. Clearly they weren’t open, mail was being piled up at the front door. WILL NEVER do business with them again.

    We had a private party of 8 that experienced the "Crime Scene" room. Staff was very friendly and explained the rules clearly. Without saying too much the room was challenging however when paying attention to the right clues in the right order you were rewarded with a sense of accomplishment that let you know you were on the right track. Can't wait to try out their other rooms!

    Great date night. We teamed up with 2 other couples. And we all worked great together to get out with 1 minute 20 seconds to spare. They just need to replace some of their props every once in a while.

    Family of 6 adults. We had a great time! Host was very pleasant explained everything we had to do to get started. It was challenging enough for all levels of family fun. Unfortunately we were just 1 puzzle shy of exiting the room so the host gave us a clue and we solved it in less then a minute to answer the final code to get out. (Senator's room) We highly recommend this location.

    Wonderful Veteran Owned Business. Such a fun place that’s perfect for Corporate Events, Birthday Parties, date nights, etc. Owner is so fun, friendly and accommodating! I highly recommend you visit Escape Strategy!

    I loved doing the escape room here! It was a ton of fun. Although the room may be a little bit small, there are tons of puzzles that are such a fun challenge. The staff was incredibly nice and I overall enjoyed the experience. This place is something you should try out.

    Great experience! The crime scene room was awesome. First time and we were a large group not expecting for it to be so fun. Staff is great, place is clean and just a great time while we celebrated my sons 18th birthday. Book a time and go have fun...

    This experience was awesome! There were only three of us doing the murder mystery escape room and we made it out with 2.5 min left! The clues were challenging but good enough to figure out what each clue meant. Detail is everything in this room. We will definitely be doing another escape room here!

👍 The place is amazing, the incredible actors, each with their essence, if not for the bad disorganization with the line would give the 5 stars! But it was worth going! congratulations guys. The area of ​​3D magnifies, this area I did not expect, until the DJ is amazing.

🫤 Me and my gf have done over 50 escape rooms. This places quality and puzzles are top notch, however their "clue" system is terrible. We were told at the beginning they would provide clues on the monitor as is the usual for most escape rooms. When we finally got stuck toward the end, we didn't even h...
