    Amazing time and very cool staff. Sophia was a great game host and even let us preview a few other games. Edit: we have officially played all the games and loved every single one of them. The staff is wonderful and very helpful. Perfect place for all ages and challenge levels.

    Great rooms and AMAZING Staff! Ana, Kit and D’tron were so great and so helpful without ruining the fun! Definitely will be coming back on my next trip into Columbus to do the other three rooms!

    This was an awesome time! Not for young kids by any means. My 8 year old son was bored to death! Lol but all the adults were having a great time. My son and I joined a party of 6, we did not know each other, but teamwork definitely had us working as a group and enjoying ourselves! I definitely recommend this place for a date night or birthday party. We did not end up escaping, but did make it to the final room! I do have to say the price is pretty steep, it was $85 for 2 people.... that's not very affordable. But overall it was a great experience!

    We booked the Prison Break game and ended up being in it with 7 16 yr old girls. With us being 30, the girl at the front desk offered us to move to another slot but we said we were fine. The experience of the game was still awesome and fun! When we finished, the girl at the front offered us 2 cards to book another game, on them! I thought that was very sweet and considerate and something they didn’t have to do! Will definitely be back for the awesome service alone and excited to try other levels 🥰

    We took our daughter yesterday for her birthday and we had a blast. We did the Classroom Room which was suited for 12 people but it was only us 3. With the help and maaaybe a few extra clues/hints, we were able to solve it with 1:52 remaining. A big time recommendation!

    A group of six of us escaped the Special Ops Room. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the themes were fun. We enjoyed the multi room and the twist! Ana was a great guide. We definitely would recommend to others and hope to return to try the other rooms.

    Awesome time together with friends! We escaped with 25 minutes remaining. I loved the game and the atmosphere! Also, located at the easton mall where there is plenty of food to eat and places to visit! If you are in the area or visiting the city, you have to come and check this out!

    I’ve never been to an escape room ever in my life and I absolutely loved the experience! It was so fun solving the clues and just being there, the staff were so nice and kind and helped us really well! I would definitely recommend going with your friends or family, it was amazing! And I even escaped in time before the time ran out! If you visit Columbus definitely go there if you don’t have anything else to do or your bored!

    Eva and Christine ran both the rooms we did today. I love the fact that we got a deep discount to do a second room and we totally took advantage. Both rooms were very immersive and we had a blast with both our rooms. Both people running our games were fantastic, and we had a great time. We did the Heist and Gold Rush. Both my daughter and I enjoyed ourselves. 10/10, we’ll definitely being coming back.

    Escape Game is an incredible experience! There is absolutely no question about it. You will enjoy each and every moment of it. The staff are very nice and extremely helpful. We have had a great time in all themes, 'Gold Rush' taking the trophy! I believe they have centers in other places too like Chicago and all! The best part, each city has a different theme! It is intriguing, the efforts and thinking put into each are profound and every single moment of the game is exciting!

    Fantastic experience with amazing people, super energetic, clean facility and easy check in! Highly recommend. The Playground was a BLAST! Shout out to Moderator Bre who swung in for the assists. Niko is the best part of waking up!

    Gaby is genuinely one of the best and kindest person I’ve met . Such a fun person to be around. My friends and I went here for mine and my friend’s birthday and we had so much fun, thanks to Gaby and the rest of the team. One of the best birthdays I’ve ever had. Thank you sm Gaby for everything and I hope your life is filled with the positivity and light you showed us tonight <3! P.S. so glad to see you enjoyed Taylor Swift as much as I do !

    I've done 3 of the rooms here and they've all been phenomenal! The depths was the most recent one I've played and it was such a blast. It incorporated things I haven't seen in any other escape room. Our game master, Gaby, was super lovely and helpful when we needed it. She even made me a birthday card to give me after we solved the room! Will definitely be coming back to see the rest of the rooms

    What a great experience! Our group did the Gold Rush and I highly recommend!! Rodney was our game master and he was incredible and made some of our more apprehensive team members feel better about starting the escape room. I've done several escape rooms all over Ohio and this was by far the best! Our group of 4 was joined by another group of 4 strangers. We were very lucky to have more people helping us find the clues. I highly recommend doing it in a large group or joining a group of strangers like we did.

    We played The Depths and it was AMAZING! Loved the story behind it, lots of fun puzzles. The specimen room was my favorite, and the chase had me at the edge of my seat (feet, there wasn’t a seat.) 10/10!

    Niko was our escape room guy and he was so fun! The playroom is the one we did for a work gathering and had so much fun! Definitely take the time to go! I will definitely be back!

    You guys were amazing hosts! We had such a great time doing prison break, that we came back and did heist last on! Hoping to come back soon to "break out of prison"

    Ana was our guide. She was very friendly and helpful! Highly recommend the Prison Escape Room. We managed to get out with about 30 seconds left. It was quite the nail biter but tons of fun. I was surprised they had an open policy about taking photos as much as you liked. They also offer tours of all the rooms after you finish which is helpful to see if you want to do a different room.

    We did The Heist and it was so fun!! Definitely challenging but the game host did such a great job with helping us out but not giving too much. This is great for families, friends or coworkers etc. I love how it's great for all ages. My youngest is 8 and she can even help with the puzzles.

    We had a blast! The playground was so fun. Lots of puzzles requiring different skills sets, so nice to have a team with many eyes and brains to work on the goal. The rooms are well constructed, and the clues rewarding when we finally solved them. Would definitely recommend to everyone! Heaven and Athena, our guides, were super helpful, provided great advice, and even took our pictures at the end! Look forward to trying a different room with them next time!!!!

    We went here as a brand new team for a brand new medical center that we all work at. This was a bonding Christmas gathering for us and we had the 8/10 difficulty heist room. IT WAS HARD! But so fun. 60 minutes blow past and our game master was so amazing, friendly and helpful. Would totally recommend this for any event or any occasion! It gets hot quick especially with the group we had but so worth the money spent

  • 5/5 Mike P. 7 months ago on Google • 8 reviews
    Awesome fun time, staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and the nicest people you'll ever meet. We had a tour of all the escape rooms, super cool! We did the Depths, it was fantastic. The most fun iv had in along time. Shout out to our guide your a very cool human being. Will definitely be back.

  • 5/5 Annie S. 3 months ago on Google • 6 reviews New
    Love this place and it is always a blast! I’ve done every room with a variety of different ages and group sizes from friends and family to colleagues. My 6 year old son LOVES going and even though many of the puzzles are too complex he still has fun searching around and enjoying the (amazing quality and high detail!) room. We did The Depths today and it was by far our favorite! I was screaming at the end and we all left laughing (shout out Josh, our game guide, for supporting our hijinks!) The only downside is the rooms stay the same which I understand as the time and effort in to creating them is so next level, but it would be great if there was a room that switched out yearly.

  • 5/5 Miranda N. 3 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    Matt our game master was wonderful and Tron got us hyped while waiting and was incredibly personable. They were both fantastic! This was our 5th escape room (The Heist) and it had so many twists. The clues were not obvious and the facilities were very well kept. Thank you for making a fun night for the 8 of us!

  • 4/5 Nelson Y. 6 months ago on Google
    We did the Gold Rush room as a party. The ruins were very nicely themed. Good mix of shorter puzzles with more complex puzzles. Opening doors to new areas were fun but some areas felt small. And one puzzle had a difficult mechanism. Overall very enjoyable with a group.

  • 5/5 Jonathon L. 1 year ago on Google
    Intricate escapes and an overall great time too! The Escape Game is an exiting twist on a date night. The Playground was my wife and I’s favorite game, but we did 3 in one night! Make an effort to grab some friends and have an awesome time. Or, get grouped with a few strangers and make some fast friends. We did!

  • 5/5 Joy W. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been to a couple different escape rooms, and “The Escape Game” at easton is by far my favorite location. They are very well set up. The games are fun with great prompts. I love the multiple rooms to explore. The game guides are wonderful and friendly staff. It’s overall a good atmosphere! We went for a friends birthday and when we checked in, the front desk noticed this on his check in info and wished him a happy birthday. After our adventure, the staff presented our friend with a birthday card signed by all the employees there at the time. That was really going above and beyond and we all mentioned this several times afterward. Thank you guys for a great location.

  • 5/5 Lauren K. 1 year ago on Google
    I could not recommend this escape room enough! The room itself was incredible with so many different components and super interactive. Our guide was INCREDIBLE and so kind and helpful. We are definitely going to be back- in fact, we are doing a second one later tonight!!

  • 5/5 Melissa E. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a blast! The clues were our life line. Great welcoming experience for a first timer. It was just 2 of us but we made it out in the nick of time. Matt was very kind and helpful. Highly recommend.

  • 5/5 Alexis K. 1 year ago on Google
    We had a great time! Booked special ops for a private game with me and my partner for his birthday. The room was challenging without being too frustrating. Illyas was fantastic! They were our game guide and gave us great guidance without giving any thing away. The staff was lovely. The set was fantastic. It was clean. And so much fun! We will be back. Only criticisms/tips: No bathroom on site, so go before you check in. And the capacity said our game was for up to 8 people? 4 would have made our lives easier, but 6 would probably be the max I’d want in that game, some of the parts of the room are cozy!

  • 4/5 Daniel H. 5 months ago on Google
    My best friends family and my family went and tried "the depths" escape room. This is my third room with the escape game. The other two I tried were in pigeon forge Tennessee and I had such a good time that I wanted to try one here in Columbus where I'm from. It was really challenging and I loved how the room looked. Definitely recommended! We are trying gold rush next in a month or so. My only gripe is, the audio from the room videos was way lower in Columbus. It was harder to hear. 4 out of 5 stars

  • 5/5 Brandi L. 10 months ago on Google
    I’ve been here twice, once on date night and once with my whole family. Staff is super friendly. It’s very clean. Lots of puzzles and so fun. We have some family on the ASD spectrum and they were very understanding. Escaped twice!!!!

  • 5/5 Leah D. 11 months ago on Google
    We enjoyed “The Depths” this afternoon with a group of 6…and escaped! We had a GREAT time. The room was challenging and so much fun. We let the people greeting us at The Escape Games know we had a birthday in the group, and they made it a special experience. Bre did a great job as our guide. She even gave us a sneak peek of a few different games afterward! The Escape Games are high quality, has friendly and helpful guides, and definitely impressed us. We’ll be back!!

  • 5/5 Tarae P. 8 months ago on Google
    I didn’t I know what to expect but it was amazing! I really like the adrenaline and it was very interesting. Scary at first but nothing to worry about in the end.

  • 5/5 J M. 6 months ago on Google
    We came here for my husband’s birthday and we absolutely enjoyed it! We did Gold Rush and The Depth and had so much fun! The rooms were super detailed and interactive. Lots of surprises! GGs Ana & Christine were awesome and super helpful! Regardless of your party size, this will definitely be enjoyable!

  • 4/5 Shannon W. 1 year ago on Google
    The rooms are smaller than some other locations and also more expensive than some other locations. The puzzles are a bit challenging. Because you often have to solve one clue at a time having 7 people seemed like a bit much. 4 would probably be better to keep people busy.

  • 3/5 Talia C. 6 months ago on Google
    I was in a party of 6 and we choose to do the Gold Rush. My party and I were greeted my Josh who was awesome and super helpful! We were able to get as many clues as we wanted the environment was clean, and creative. We were able to get out with a minute and a half to spare. However, we weren’t asked or given the chance to take an I escaped picture with our group and were lead out after we escaped which was pretty disappointing. Other than that, it was a fun experience

  • 5/5 crooz3 3. 7 months ago on Google
    Christine was really great and sweet and he led us through the escape. Although we weren’t able to complete it fully we still want to come back and try again. And they wished me a happy birthday which was a real moral booster, thank you!

  • 5/5 Shaquez E. 10 months ago on Google
    THE PLAYGROUND WAS AWESOME!!!! We only made it halfway through but it was a great experience.. We will go back escape this room and every other room possible.. THIS IS A MUST TRY CHALLENGE!! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

  • 5/5 Payton S. 7 months ago on Google
    By far the best escape room experience I’ve ever had!! I’ve gone to a few different locations in Columbus, but this place makes the rest look like child’s play. Very well scripted themes, amazing decorations, helpful hints, and realistic hands-on displays. Can’t wait to come back and do another room!!

  • 5/5 Kat 8 months ago on Google
    We had 2 people that were not in our group join us and we had such a fun time. We had been in a few escape rooms but this was their first, they did an amazing job! The staff was super friendly and helpful and you get unlimited clues with no penalties. Will be back here!

  • 5/5 Emily S. 7 months ago on Google
    My husband and I had a great time at The Escape Game in Easton! Christina was a fantastic game master. She was attentive when time was running short with our hints, but also jumped in on her own when she was seeing we were stuck. We will absolutely be returning with a bigger group to tackle a more difficult room!

  • 5/5 Maggie Yu M. 10 months ago on Google
    We had so much fun! This was our first time doing an escape room, and it was a blast. Our game host, Matt, was really friendly and knowledgeable and made us feel prepared. We didn't end up finishing the game, but got really close! Time flies when you're having fun 😂

    Took my sister here for her birthday, we had an absolute blast!! We did The Heist, and Gold Rush. The staff was super friendly and personable. Our host Ana and Chorcie (I’m sorry if I spelled them wrong 😭) were super amazing and helped us a lot. I definitely recommend, their rooms are so much fun and have a nice twist to them.

    We went and played Playground for our anniversary and they were wonderful! They blocked the room so that it could just be my husband and I to do the room and they also gave us a free online Escape room. The workers are very kind and courteous, they are also very helpful when we’re in the room trying to figure out the puzzles. We had previously done Prison Break and we had the same great experience! We can’t wait to go back and do Special Ops and Heist!!

  • 5/5 Ava B. 6 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Super fun!!! Even when we had to ask for hints it was just the right amount of help so we weren’t just told the answer and could still work it out. There were enough puzzles where everyone could work on something too. When we first started, our guide Faith(?) gave us all the info we needed so I felt safe and ready for the game. Amazing way to spend your time.
