Ruins: Forbidden Treasure

Ruins: Forbidden Treasure

The Escape Game Nashville: Berry Hill

Escape room
IRL

Great room. Expansive, immersive, well-made, interesting, good story. They said that it's only in their Nashville location because it's too expensive to build out elsewhere. That lines up with what we experienced. Definitely worth trying out.

The Crypt

Escape Hour Austin

The production on this room is on par with one of the national escape room companies. Really great. Puzzle design was good, and the components and atmosphere was great. It's a large room with lots to discover. I'm used to doing rooms with just 2, and this one was too big for us. Our only failure to escape. But they offer a 50% discount on replays, so we went back to experience the last part of the room. I'd highly recommend a team of at least 4 for this one, even if you're used to doing rooms with 2.

Amazing concept: a time traveling train! Production was fantastic, as usual with The Escape Game. We had a good time.

The Asylum: Playtime

The Asylum: Playtime

Lost Games

Escape room

Played this while visiting and did all three of their rooms. It's billed as "chapter 2", but you don't really need to do them in order. The story connecting them is pretty thin, but that's not a bad thing. There were some great and clever bits in this.

The Escape Game Nashville: Opry Mills

This is a cool, innovative room. It's set up as a competition between teams, which is different from most rooms. The design is neat with how new puzzles are revealed, and how you send and receive challenges between teams. Because it's competitive, you probably want more people than normal for the room. Two teams of 3 is probably ideal.

Cool game. It's designed for larger groups, and gets harder with fewer people. We did it with just the two of us, and we were huffing by the end.

The Escape Game - Las Vegas

So, this company operates nationally. The Rugrats game is their Playground game with a different theme. I had played Playground, but was curious to see what was different. There were one or two different things, but if you've done Playground, this one will be familiar. The Rugrats theme was fine, though it didn't really add anything for me.

The Secret Chambers - Arlington

Escape room

I asked someone who has designed multiple escape room what his favorite room was, and he said this one. So I had to try it when I was in Dallas. It's very cool. There's lots of neat things to find, and the puzzles are innovative.

Prison Break

The Escape Game

Escape room

This is my favorite game at this location, it's also their hardest. I played this a few years ago (2021, I think?), and it's had some small updates since then. But it's pretty challenging, and you have to be on your toes during it, especially at the beginning. You start in adjoining rooms and have to go from there.

So this is not an escape room. It does have some simple puzzles for you to solve, but not a lot, and that's not the reason that you should go. But you should go because it's very cool, and it does give you that sense of discovery that you get from escape rooms. If you want to go and just take some cool pictures or selfies, that's definitely an option. And that's what I thought it was before I went. But when I got there, I found that there was a whole story (multiple stories, in fact) to discover as you went around. I ended up staying for 4 hours, but wish I had started in the morning so I could have stayed all day. In those 4 hours, I didn't even get to the second floor because I got so caught up in it. There's a lot to see and experience, and if you like that discovery, then there's a TON for you to find. Pay the extra like $5 for the bloop card; it's worth it.

Every escape room. Every haunt. Ever.

Special Ops: Mysterious Market

Special Ops: Mysterious Market

The Escape Game Houston - The Galleria

37 escape rooms

Mission Ops is a thematic sequel to another game that The Escape Game used to run called Classified. I played Classified in Austin, and was unsure if this would be different. It only looks the same, though. All the puzzles are different. Had a good time. Loved the progression of the story and the change in atmosphere.

Yes

It's right in the Galleria. Easy to find, though a pretty small storefont.

Parking

Medium

It's Galleria parking. There's a lot, so there will be parking, but you have to deal with the whole area and walking through the mall.
