a month agoAwesome! We really enjoyed the rooms, we go all over (not professionals or anything) just a family who found something we can all enjoy together and found the rooms the perfect balance of challenging yet solvable. Also, very clean and comfortable (some other places get dingy after repeated use).Eli (our game master for both games) was a pleasure- hopefully this is a case of treat your employees well and they will treat their customers well. He seemed to really enjoy his work. I anticipate coming back the next time we are in town. Oh… parking is a bit of a challenge, but it is downtown Madison and the establishment is downstairs so if mobility is an issue keep that in mind! Sent from my iPhone

4 months agoMy friends and I have gone to escape rooms for birthday celebrations for the past seven years. We've gone to the Fox Valley and Madison and have found Escape This! to be one of the best. Our group has grown to ten people, and Escape This! has had rooms to easily accommodate this size. This year, we chose Rock On! for our room. Music lovers will be delighted at this room. I can't carry a tune in a bucket and I still loved it. It was big enough for everyone to work on different puzzles simultaneously. The puzzles are very clever and you will be scratching your head at many of them. Our Game Master was incredibly helpful and engaging, all while letting us sort through the challenges and have a fantastic experience. Since our party was celebrating a birthday, the management left a small birthday gift in one of the puzzles- an incredible personal touch. We'll be coming back next year.

a month agoEnjoyed the experience but felt it was too expensive for the quality of room. The lady asked us to sign the waivers was pretty rude to us. The Alice in Wonderland room needs some work, I expected something colorful and was disappointed. The game itself felt poorly designed, with one answer feeling more frustrating than clever (why would you have a screw after we've spent the majority of the puzzle opening locks...) if the room has a 50% completion rate it may need to be a little reworked. I enjoyed the time with my loved ones, but wouldn't go back.

4 months agoThis was our third time at Escape This and it was just as much fun as the first two. The rooms are set up well with clever & challenging clues & puzzles. The two young ladies running things did a great job too - even with technical glitches affecting their role in the game - and provided useful hints as needed, gently nudging us in the right direction if we got stuck. We especially enjoy that we can book & have a room to ourselves without having to share the experience with strangers. We plan to return to do the other two rooms when visiting Madison again. Highly recommend.

a month agoWe had a great time with the Lost Friday Night room. Some things we figured out carefully, some things we figured out with luck, and sometimes we got help from the control room. The escape room was very clever. We didn’t quite finish, but had a blast!
