What parents say
"This was our second visit to Breakout Studios and we had a great time. The Father of Silicon Valley escape room was a lot of fun, with lots to do, and just the right amount of challenging. I also want to recognize the flexibility that the company showed with our reservation. We had to reschedule it 3 different times due to illness and travel plans, and they were extremely accommodating. Highly recommended."

"My partner and I really love doing escapes rooms. The layout of the waiting room is so thought out and sets the vibe that it gets you excited to get going on the room. Would definitely come back again. Don't want to spoil the rooms itself but just know that we are coming back!"

"Very strong customer service. Game was well laid out and staffer was clear about how things would progress and did a wonderful job of starting the game in the time travel section. Very enjoyable hour or so. The game (Father of Silicon Valley) was very reasonable and most of the clues were very well thought out."
