Panic Room - Norwalk

Escape room center

👍 Good challenging room. We took a few hints and solved the puzzle with four minutes to spare. Our only disappointment was that we would have expected the room monitor to offer to photograph our group after completing it. We were halfway out the door when we realized that didn’t happen, so went back... People often mention room, escape, experience, great, challenging, group, time,

    Eh, I've done two escape rooms here and they were fine. They felt like they were here's a series of locks. No story or immersion. The escape room run by a high-schooler in Montana is way better.

    Good challenging room. We took a few hints and solved the puzzle with four minutes to spare. Our only disappointment was that we would have expected the room monitor to offer to photograph our group after completing it. We were halfway out the door when we realized that didn’t happen, so went back in and asked for a few photos, with which he obliged.

    Got us in and out very quickly. Good puzzles and very challenging. Polite & helpful staff.

    The gentleman there helping us was super nice and accommodating. I would request him again. My daughter had a great time with her friends. Thank you!

    It was a great time and very challenging. The staff was really friendly as well. Highly recommend!

    Christian was an amazing host to my group of friends and I. He encouraged us to have fun, gave us clues that made us think “what does this mean” while making us laugh, and he as well had fun with us! He had us laughing the whole time and made the experience more enjoyable. We look forward to going back and having him as our host in our next adventures!

    I took a bunch of 12 year olds to this age 12+ room, Tick Tock. Although it was really challenging for them (Oh, the panic! The noise!), a few well timed hints from Christian out front got them through with seconds left. The kids went bonkers. It was super fun and memorable for all. You may need a hint to find it though - enter through the side parking lot door and read the sign in the entryway ;).

    Very disappointing and would not recommend. About 8-10 minutes into the game we began to get incessant, non-stop clues that we did not ask for. I actually, multiple times, requested that they stop giving us clues and they did not. No sooner would we open a lock then they would put instructions on the screen telling us what to do next. Over and over and over. We finished the room in less than 32 minutes because we literally weren’t given the opportunity to play. It was incredibly clear to us that the employee giving the clues was rushing us out so they could go home. It was rude behavior and the experience was 1000% not worth the $200+ that it cost us to play. We’ve played so many escape rooms at other places and this was the worst experience we’ve ever had. I’ve also emailed Panic Room to tell them of our experience and had no response, so don’t expect that anyone cares about your experience. Save your money and go to one of the other many escape room places in the area.

    My kid and friends had a great birthday celebration here. Staff was very friendly and helpful. While we waited, the person in charge even gave up his comfortable desk seat to my husband when 4 of us were waiting

    Daughters 13th bday. They really like it. The guy running their room behind the scenes was humorous and courteous. The girls had a blast. The place could do with better signage to find it, and have a deep clean! But overall a great value fun hour spent.

  • 4/5 Jeannette M. 6 months ago on Google
    Our team had a lot of fun figuring out how to get to the next clue. The staff was extremely helpful, friendly and accommodating. The only reason I give 4 stars instead of 5 is because the room was dusty and very warm. Given the dust it made me wonder if the room is sanitized after each group, given all of the surfaces multiple people touch in order to figure out the puzzles, it really should be cleaned thoroughly after each use.

    Don’t go here. We had trouble completing our room as one of the locks was not working. We thought maybe we were doing something wrong but when the time was up the administrator came and we realized it was broken. They offered us a new room but they said we will have to pay for it again. After arguing with the owner of the store she said there is nothing she can do except give us only 50% of the refund since we completed half of our room… or other option we can go to the new room and we will have to hay half of it. The owner was not nice and rude on the phone. Bad experience.

    Participated in The Inheritance escape room as a team building activity and it was a lot of fun and really challenged our group to work together to find solutions to "escape." :)

    We really enjoyed our experience at Panic Room. We felt that The Last Resort was a good fit for our group of four. We left feeling accomplished and having had a lot of fun.

  • 5/5 Bina B. 1 year ago on Google
    It was awesome. We look forward to visiting again. We did Last Resort. Exciting and creative. We love thrillers so this was right up our alley but unfortunately we didn’t escape lol Fun nevertheless!

  • 5/5 Carol W. 1 year ago on Google
    This was my first experience with an escape room and it did not disappoint. It was fun yet challenging. The staff observed us through a camera and gave us timely hints at appropriate points throughout the game. I'd definitely go back

    My daughter and her friends had a great time thank you

  • 5/5 Anne S. 1 year ago on Google
    This was a super fun escape room. We were all a little puzzled at first as to where to start with all the things we had found but once we quickly got help from a clue, that helped us a long way all the way to our escape! We can’t wait to do the next one!!

    Great experience! I was kind of scared going into an office building late at night, but that contributes to the vibe of the whole thing.

  • 5/5 Laura W. 1 year ago on Google
    Excellent Employees! Fun room - just the right level of difficulty!

  • 5/5 Quirine H. 2 years ago on Google
    We had a great time. It was definitely tricky, especially with 7 younger teens, but we have a lot of fun. Would love to go back with a few friends and try another room!

  • 5/5 Jim C. 5 years ago on Google
    Did A Broken Mind. Was pretty fun. Your team gets split into 2 rooms and has to work together, separately. My group was in the dark side of Dr. Elesdy's mind and it definitely seemed like most of the work was in that side. Well hosted, they really do a great job in there.

    I would highly recommend The Panic Room. We had our kids in for Thanksgiving weekend, all in their 20s and 30s....it was the perfect family activity. We did the Last Resort Room in Norwalk. It was challenging, but not too difficult, and to my amazement everyone got along and worked together to escape the room. The staff member was extremely nice and helped make the experience great. We all had a great experience

    Very well done room! The transition from online escape room play to a realistic setting was a blast. The family and I enjoyed the experience and look forward to doing it again.
