Return of the Pharaohs

Stunning setup. Extremely immersive!! Not necessarily scary, but quite loud (which scared me😅). Puzzles were very unique though the theme is quite familiar. Really enjoyed it!

Great escape room! Our game master was a lot of fun. This room was a lot of fun and had a lot of interactive clues, alot of visual clues. Really enjoyed the layout of this room and all the hidden gems in this room. I can’t wait for this location to open more escapes!

Paragon's first room was an absolute win. Still one of the best rooms I have ever done, and definitely the best Egyptian-themed room I have played. The family the runs the place is so friendly and passionate about their work! We stayed up well passed midnight walking through the room and talking about the inner workings and industry. One of the rare rooms I would pay to play again because I just had such a fun time. It's a little bit of a drive outside of Phoenix but it's absolutely worth it.

The hype is real on this one. Best Egyptian game out there thus far. Especially great if you don’t like locks. Story, music, sounds, lighting puzzles, non linear, it has it all. Play this game with no hesitations. Also play what ever these guys build. Seems like they have a great vision!

The overall set design and the flow of the room was incredible. Very thought puzzles laid out in a visually rich environment.

We played Return of the Pharohs and the set design, special effects, and overall presentation was stunning. It felt like we were transported to the middle of the Egyptian desert including sand underfoot. This game is way out of the way for most, but it is absolutely worth the trip. One note: there are loud sounds and some of the content may not be suitable for all people.

Very immersive!! The production value and tech sets the bar high!

I can see why this room has been nominated for so many awards! The set was incredible, the technology used was amazing, and the story was unique. And we almost didn’t get to play- the day of our original booking their server went down and we were unable to play; they graciously made an exception to open EARLY the day we flew home so that we could play before our flight, and I’m glad they were able to- I would NOT want to miss out on playing this room!

Recently replayed this game and I’m happy to say it’s still one of my favorites in the valley. Beautiful set design with great puzzles and tense moments. Even though my group had no hints it was still a very challenging room. My only gripe is the distance. It was almost an hour drive both too and from Paragon and I live very close to the Central Phoenix area. My recommendation is to wait for their second room to open if you’re worried about the distance (which hopefully is soon!). That said let it be known that if you do make the drive you are truly in for something special!
