An incredibly fun room that kept our entire group involved so no one felt left out. So many different types of puzzles or riddles kept every part of the room feeling fresh and novel. The room details combined with the audio and visuals made the entire experience so immersive. I’m not from the Reno area, but would come back to play all their other rooms.
Unique fun puzzles and riddles unlike other rooms I’ve played before. Each solve flowed into the next one so it was really easy to know where we needed to be in the room, and all players were always involved so no one was left out.
The attention to detail is absolutely phenomenal! It really keeps you immersed in the room and story.
Super friendly owners and staff.

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.

One of the best rooms I’ve ever done. Super cool room with flavorful theme and puzzle. 10/10.

This room was lots of fun! As mentioned by other reviews, the puzzles required everyone’s participation to solve and were very creative. I’ve been in escape rooms where puzzles can be easily solved by one or two people which makes the experience for a group not as fun. Freak show did a fantastic job at making group puzzles! However our group size was too big (8 people) even with the extra puzzles. Ideal size is probably 5 people. There is an element in the room where you are in tight quarters but it doesn’t last too long. We really enjoyed the room and were really impressed with the decor, props, and overall design of the room.

The room itself was very unique in its own way. Your a freak of your own freak show which is pretty cool. The setting is set on a run down circus and you are part of the show.

Holy Cow this room is good! The set design was wonderful. The theatricality was amazing. Puzzles were all great. (Two of them in particular still make me smile when I think of them. ) Do yourself a favor and play this room. Note - you need exactly four people to experience this game at its best. More would be OK, though I wouldn’t go above about 6. Less than 4 doesn’t really work - for storyline reasons as well as logistical ones.

Awesome set and design! Puzzles were plentiful for hard groups with nothing being exceptionally difficult or confusing. Like Deadline’s other rooms, decent mix of classic locks and tech!
