    Excellent room! One of my favorites of all time. There is an animatronic skeleton that kept our younger kids entertained on some of the tougher puzzles. It's well themed and the story flows well. Highly recommend if you're in Reno!!

    Probably one of the best rooms in Reno. We've done it twice. Once when it opened and then again recently with our children (we took a backseat and watched). Both times were excellent! Very little changed over the years but we forgot a lot of the puzzles. There are some very unique puzzles, where you need to really think about what's happening to solve them. The story ties into the puzzles and flows very well. It's good for large or small groups and the game masters here are by far some of the best I've seen. Keystone Escape Rooms is located in a kind of sketchy part of Reno, however you never feel unsafe. Parking is easy and there is plenty of it. If you're visiting and staying downtown, it's a 5 minute drive which makes it convenient compares to the other good escape room places. The inside is themed very well for the rooms they have.

    One of my favorite places in Reno. This room was nicely done with some creative thought put behind it. It was hard for our younger kids to stay focused because the puzzles are pretty linear or more challenging. They still enjoyed the atmosphere of the room and the theme is great! It did seem like we got out of the room quicker than we thought we should, the ending went fast.

    Awesome room! Very well put together with lots of unique puzzles and theming. Interesting story line with a few twists. We did it with a 10 year old and a 14 year old and they also had a great time. Deadline is one of my favorite places in Reno, they've done a good job of creating some fun rooms in a very quick time. They are also very nice.

    The Escape Room locations are shared experiences with others. It was changed to individual parties during covid but brought back to shared now. I mention that because we did two rooms here. This one was the second one in a row. We escaped the first and then waited 20 minutes and right as we were told we would be going in, they said they had to wait for the rest to show up as they had just booked. 10 minutes later they show up, hadn't read the fine print and were upset about having to share with us. The game master told them and offered a solution of refunding their game and booking another time. Then they discussed for 10 more minutes. All in, we sat there waiting for 40 minutes and ended up doing the room alone. That time wasted was unappreciated. This was my second time going a "The Escape Room" location and the lobbies were nearly identical. Not very themed and pretty boring with some merchandise for sale. Gold Rush was a cool room. This theme/story is reused often however they did a good job of making it interesting. There is one puzzle involving a pellet gun that took us a while to complete because we were over thinking it.

Once we got into this room, it was awesome! My wife loves Rugrats and it was definitely done well to invoke all the feels from the show. Puzzles were challenging yet do-able. None were extremely unique by any means. The last puzzle had us running to finish and we barely got done in time - which I found fun.

    Really creative room. Lots of unique puzzles that give great laughs and memories. The game master was engaged and the location was convenient.

    Awesome experience!!! First off, the owners are amazing and very personable. Took time to get to know us a bit and asked about our gaming style (never had that happen before). We were on a work vacation in the area and did a few rooms because beaches aren't our thing. Instantly when we got to room time it was immersive. The story was well told with the owners taking on an in theme title. When you walk into the room it's like stepping into your Aunt's old house, smells included. The puzzles were fun and engaging with some techniques we'd never seen before. All the puzzles flowed well. We skipped one by accident, it would have helped shave some time to get us the record for two people. Absolutely the best room we did in the area and I wish we were coming back to do their future rooms. Maybe some day!!

    Located inside a mall, easy to find once you get inside. The room was interestingly located across a hallway from the actual lobby, which was very nicely decorated. When we got inside the room, it felt like we were inside Alice's bedroom. It took us a bit to get started from here. After having done so many traditional puzzle rooms, breaking from looking for the obvious signs can be tough. This room is more immersive and unique. Puzzles are part of the story and the room together, they were not obvious at all. When we finally got started I thought I'd hate the room because of this but after finishing it I can say it's one of my favorites and I'm glad we did it while in Vegas.

    Nexus Escape Room

    Tagged this room on after doing another room at Nexus. If you're in the area, I highly recommend this location. They're doing things other places don't and making experiences that you won't get elsewhere. Their lobby was decorated well and the game master was very fun. Once you walk onto the beach of this room (there's actual sand once you enter) then you'll start feeling like this is real. There are unique puzzles that involved the story and theme without repetition. Some of the puzzles were unlike anything I've ever seen involving some high tech programming. I do wish I took them up on keeping shoes on and wearing their footies!

    Every escape room. Every haunt. Ever.

    Really nice concept. Started off awesome, middle was fun, but the last puzzle didn't make sense even after it was explained. There is a bit of gore and some jump scare parts but not scary. You start off separated and I like rooms that do that. Mix of good puzzles and bad. Overall a fun room though. Flow wasn't the best.
