We had a lot fun finding the mystical orb yesterday. We bought a gift card for our son last year around this time. He was saving it and then COVID hit. We were very excited to see your business was able to open again and so grateful to have a fun and safe family activity to do over Thanksgiving break. We will be back!

I’ve been to a good number of escape rooms in the area, and can honestly and enthusiastically say this is my favorite. The craftsmanship is fantastic, the experience is immersive, the puzzles are creative, the staff and owners spent extra time with us and obviously love what they do. I’ve played two rooms so far, (80s and heroes) and I can’t wait to schedule my crew for the other two! Highly recommended!

I brought my daughter and a friend here. They have been to other escape rooms before, but this was the clear favorite. The room themes were interesting and the puzzles were the perfect level of difficulty. Additionally, the owner was very kind a took a few minutes to explain how some of the puzzles worked afterwards. We will definitely be back!

Thank you for a fun time! We did the 80s themed room and it was super fun! We cant wait to come back and try the others. Great for beginners and experienced players!

Great place; super staff. Groovy rooms with very fun puzzles. Our group absolutely slayed the 80s room! (NO hints!) Great music playlist/soundtrack, too. We have to go back for that villain room at least!

We had alot of fun at this room!! The room flowed really well. The guy that helped us and was so friendly. We will definetly come back to do the other rooms.

Super fun night Bustin’ Outta the 80s! WBE has done a great job of making the experience feel safe for COVID, and we really appreciated that. Also, the room was incredibly fun to play, and FULL of puzzles. Thanks for having us, we’ll be back.

Awesome fun! Very well thought out puzzles and the staff couldn’t be more friendly!

Bad a wonderful time figuring out where the mad scientist was with my brother for his birthday, we didnt technically find him in time but we still had a lot of fun

Whole Brain Escape was a great event for our leadership staff. We had to communicate and work well together to get out of the room with time to spare. The staff was great and very informative on what what going to happen. I would recommend to have family, friends or work groups go and you will have great memories to talk about.

Went on a whim and it was the best time weve ever had. The staff was absolutely wonderful, extremely friendly, and helpful. So much fun. We will absolutely return in the future and I highly recommend this to anyone looking for a fun time.

Our family tradition on Christmas Eve has been to experience an escape room. This was our 3rd year and it didn’t disappoint. The Mad Scientist room is chock full of challenges / combination locks to keep any number of participants busy. There was no downtime and everything was logically laid out. Highly recommend this room.

My boyfriend and I had a great time here. Weve done many escape rooms in the area but this place was one of the best! The staff was very friendly and helpful to us. I definitely recommend going with more than two people because it can be very challenging! youre going to need all the help you can get!

It was AMAZINGLY AWESOME! Took the extended family to try our 1st escape room together, & it was so much fun! Everyone was working together & we were all blown away by the amount of creative thought that went into making the room. We will definitely be back!

A wonderfully creative experience for all ages! Ive done two rooms and cant wait to do more! I love seeing the varied age groups, from tween/teens to date nights. What fun Heather and Rafael have brought to Apex!

I bought this escape room experience for my family as a Christmas gift and we were not disappointed. We had a great time and escaped with 13 minutes to spare. We will be going back to try out the other rooms!

My husband and I have never been to an escape room before and we left wanting to come back for more! The puzzles were challenging but not overwhelming and it was a great feeling working with my husband to solve the game.100% great date night idea and I can really see how this would be amazing for team building as well!

This was an amazing experience. It was a ton of fun, interactive, lots of laughs and fantastic for building a team and learning to work together. I highly recommend it!

Great time as a family! Set the standard high for our first escape room experience. Mystery of the Mad Scientist room was challenging and interesting for five adults. 10/10 would recommend!

This place is one of the best Escape Rooms me and my wife have been to. Its all extremely well done and the couple that run it are clearly very passionate about what theyre creating! We did one room right after lunch with guests we had in town, and had so much fun we booked another room for later that evening. Absolutely cannot wait to go back, and look forward to following whenever new rooms are created!

Our small group from church got together and we did the Secrets of the Mystic Orb room this past Friday. It was absolutely awesome, a great challenge and it took all 10 of us working together to solve it just in time. I highly recommend trying it out with your group as it was well designed, and a lot of fun. My wife cant stop talking about it and wants to do another one in the future.

My wife and I and another couple did the 80s room. Everyone had a great time. The staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Loved all of the memorabilia in the room. Definitely brought back some memories. Cant wait to try out the other rooms. Keep up the great work!

My husband and I did our first escape room ever here for a date night recently and we had a blast! We did the Supervillain Lair together. It was challenging but we were able to solve it with just the two of us (we are big gamers). That particular room would also be hugely fun for a kids birthday party or a family outing. The staff was also very friendly. We will be back!

Family Fun! My family of 4 had such a great time, kids ages 9 and 13. Everyone had a puzzle or clue to work on. As a group and individual challenges working against the clock. Super cool room design and props.Very helpful clues, clean and organized, and a definite memorable family fun night.Would highly recommend!

Great group activity! Hosts/owners were quite friendly. Our first escape room experience. It wont be our last!

We had a great time escaping the supervillian’s lair last night! The game creators/hosts were very friendly and really put a lot of thought into the room and making it a fun experience for everyone. We have done several escape rooms in the past, and this was one of our favorites so far! We came with another couple who had never done an escape room before, and they got really into it, too. We will definitely be back!

This place is AMAZING. They pay so much attention to detail and go out of the way to insure everyone has a blast. I can’t wait to go back and try a new room.

We just did the Bustin’ Out of the 80’s escape room today and had so much fun!!! It was an all around great experience and we’d recommend to anyone looking for an hour of fun! It was so well put together and thought out and we barely busted out of the 80’s!

Fun escape room! There was a wide variety of puzzles and a ridiculous number of locks (shocker). My wife and I did the 80s room with a family of 5 who had done escape rooms before. We finished in plenty of time because we split up and worked through different challenges. With the number of locks/puzzles, it might be difficult for a group of two (especially if new to escape rooms) to escape before time runs out.The owners created the stories and puzzles themselves, and you can see that they have game design experience as you find your way through the room. I highly recommend this escape room place for a group activity!

Very, very fun. Other escape rooms weve been to were fairly convoluted, while this one was well-designed with discernable patterns. We went with mature-for-their-ages kids (11, 12, and 14) and had a blast. We baaaarely solved our room with a minute to go, and only needed a few nudges from the friendly staff.Clean, well thought out, well-lit, safe, family friendly while not being cheesy. Definitely coming back.

We took a group of 14yr old boys here for a birthday and they had the best time. We overheard them talking about the super villain room the rest of the night and how fun it was. I would highly recommend.

This was one of the most fun escape rooms Ive done! The people there are super friendly and the puzzles were challenging and a lot of fun to figure out! We had a great time!

Friendly staff, great challenging room. The room my group was in had plenty of puzzles and they were really fun to solve! Plan to go back to try the other rooms!

My first escape room experience and it was a blast!! Definitely kept you on your feet! I did the 80’s room. No 80’s knowledge needed so anyone can have a blast doing it! Lots of neat clues and puzzles to solve! Definitely recommend going!

Visited with a small group of friends & loved it, a great way to spend an hour or two. The puzzles were great, fun and not overly difficult which if great.

Had a great time! The room we played had awesome decor and was still challenging. Well definitely be back to play the other games.

This was my first escape room experience and it will not be my last. We did the 80’s experience and it was so much fun. The clues were so clever and well put together. Get a group and do it. You will love it!!!

Great team building experience! We will be back!

Nice escape room from the 80ties. Highly recommended.

We did the supervillian escape room and had a blast! The room had super cool decor that went perfectly with the theming, but the escape room was too hard for us. We were a small group with mostly children and some of the puzzles were way above our knowledge.

Great rooms... family-friendly.

I had SO much fun at this escape room! The intricacy and dedication in the creation of the rooms truly show! One of the best escape rooms I have participated in. 10/10 would recommend.

For my first escape room, I had an amazing experience!!! I will definitely come back again to do another! Loved every bit of it!

What a fun night out! Clever clues, great themes, and a little something for everyone. If your office needs a team building exercise or your hard to please teenagers need a night out, check our Whole Brain Escape in Apex.

This was our 4th escape room experience, each with a different company in the Raleigh area. The two teenage boys loved this one the most and asked when we could do another challenge here! The room had a lot more locks, but it kept us moving to solve them and forced us to break apart and communicate! We were challenged in different ways, but never to the point of being frustrated that we couldnt figure it out. Well be baaaack (for the 80s room)

Awesome spot for an escape!! Great hosts and very competitive room, definitely be back.

Great time with great friends.

Totally tubular! Had a great time. So challenging. We did the 80’s room. The teenagers in our group had a great time too.

Nice place fun escape rooms

Had so much fun doing the Super hero room. Very very nice people. Can’t wait to come back.

Wow what an amazing place. A husband and wife team created this business with over 30 years of collective experience in the game and puzzle world. Available for parties, groups, and corporate teambuilding.

We have had two great experiences at Whole Brain Escapes. The puzzles are well thought out and alot of fun.

This place was a good escape room I would recommend this

Lots of fun with a group of friends.

The Superhero Room was amazingly clever and had some fun lore to it.

We escaped the 80’s....barely. Lots of fun, we hope to be back.

Had a great time! Took a group for 14 year olds bday. It was perfect! Highly recommend.

So much fun!!! Definitely takes everyone in the group. The owner was great!

Date night at the Whole Brain Escape!!! Great couples therapy as we worked together to solve the Bustin Out the Eighties Room. Be sure to check them out in Apex for a group date night or girls night out!! #worthit

Husband and I had a blast!

Lots of fun. Got you to you to use your brain.

First time ever in one of these, staff was awesome, very good time, I think this is a great time had by all, come check this out.

We visited Whole Brain and did both Escape the Supervillain’s Lair and Bustin Out of the Eighties. The owners were both there and were fun to chat with.Bustin Out of the EightiesWeve done a few really *bad* Eighties-inspired rooms, so it was a real treat to see a room get it so very right. The props were a great touch, so many times I found myself just wanting to sit down and look at the memorabilia instead of completing the puzzles! Theres also a lot to do in this room - we split into two groups and both stayed plenty busy for the entire experience. Really recommend!Escape the Supervillain’s LairOddly, Ive seen very few Supervillain rooms. Plenty of mad scientist, etc, but never just a comic-book supervillain. The room was a little more linear than their Eighties experience, but we were all still engaged with a variety of different types of puzzles that called on each of our strengths. One puzzle went between 4 of us, each figuring out a small bit and another group member getting the next part. Really great design.

Had a great time out witting the nefarious Quizzler.
