Great place to have your first escape experience. Not super difficult but still very satisfying.

We did THE LOST ANTIDOTE puzzle and had a lot of fun. The staff were very nice and professional. Price is very competitive for a group of 5 to 7. We had fun and will try another one.

This was my familys first experience with an escape room and it was a lot of fun! My husband, myself, and our children did it together. Our children are 10, 8, and 5 and they were all able to help in some way or another. Overall it was a great experience. It is a little costly when you are paying for a family of 5 but I thought it was worth it.

First time the 6 of us have ever done a escape room. Was very fun even though we sucked at. We did tell them that we were beginner and would like a easy room, they ended up giving us the hardest one they had besides that they were very helpful with the hints and we enjoyed it very much. Would definitely come back!

This is the 3rd time weve been and the 3rd room weve tried. The first 2 trips were awesome but the Uptown Murder room was awful. It was too dark, too difficult, and there was not a variety of puzzles. Visit The Escape for a worthwhile experience, but avoid the Uptown Murder room is you want to enjoy your visit.

Took my 12yo and 4 friends for her birthday. They had a blast working through the clues in The Lost Antidote and were super proud of themselves when they beat it at the very last second. I would definitely recommend this place and I hope to go back and try some other rooms.

I went there with my two boys, what is 14 in the other is nine. We were told at the very beginning that there would be unlimited hints. After having five hints, a girl came in and told us that we have been asking for a lot of hints so they are going to ask us to try to complete this on our own for a while.

Uptown murder was amazing! Great for teams and challenging yet fun. Super helpful and kept everything very safe as far an mid-pandemic safety is concerned. They take a apic and upload to facebook so keep an eye out for that!Only concern was the lack of response and awareness to when people got there but other than having to call it was amazing!

We did this as a family for my daughters 11th birthday and we all had a lot of fun. The clues were challenging and interesting, but solvable; we got out with 14 minutes to spare. :)The ONLY reason I wasnt comfortable giving it 5 stars is because we arrived at the requested time of 5:30 for orientation to start at 5:45 and our orientation didnt begin until 5:50, so we didnt get started until just after 6:00. That wouldnt have been so bad, but we had reservations for dinner at 7:00, which we ended up having to cancel.On a more positive note, the gentleman working there was extremely helpful and apologetic as - apparently - the family right before us had broken one of the items that was a clue/lock. It was well worth the trip!

Our family of four, with our 13- and 10-year-olds, escaped the Zombie Room! We had a blast and were thankful for the help we received before entering. This is such a fun and unique experience. Thank you, The Escape Omaha!

We took our daughter and her friends for her birthday. It was a blast! The Lost Antidote was the perfect one for beginners. They were so excited and attentive the whole time! The rest of the day they couldnt stop talking about how we escaped with 10 minutes to go. Thank you to the team at The Escape Omaha- it was a great time!

Review №16

The Escape Omaha was truly an amazing experience. I took my wife here on a date and we had an absolute blast. The appearance of the building made me think that initially we were about to be kidnapped and all of our organs sold on the black market, but once we were inside we felt right at home. What was great about this place was the staff wants people to have fun here, they want people to solve the puzzles but they dont force help on people who dont want it. 10/10 will return for another date.

Kelsey and Adam were amazing at helping facilitate a proposal in one of their rooms. The room experience was so fun. I HIGHLY recommend this escape room. I can’t wait to go back again and check out another room.

Lots of fun! Recommend 4+ players to help increase odds of solving mystery/puzzle. Only complaint is that I wish the odds of finding solution were higher.

Review №22

How fun! There were seven in our party only one had done an escape room before. The room was challenging enough a so much so that we had to ask for help twice in the same clue. That helped propel us through all of the mist please for this fun to let my birthday boy 14-year-old open up the door to escape. We did finish We just needed to get over the toughest hurdle.The staff was friendly they got us in quickly they were friendly also as we were leaving. The place was clean having nothing to compare it to it seemed like it was top notch! The price was lower than others in town, that leads me to believe that others may have more bells and whistles.

Our group of 6 (ranging from the ages of 18-55) enjoyed the experience greatly. We found it challenging but achievable. The staff was very professional and friendly. I would definitely recommend for a group of friends or family. We can’t wait to solve another room!

Review №25

This was so much fun! I was super nervous but the staff made us feel right at home. There were 7 of us and we made it out! Had an absolute blast and already booked our next one. We chose this escape room company based on the fact it was $99 for a room and it didn’t disappoint!!

Review №26

This was the first Escape room for 4 of the 6 people in our group. We ranged from 18 to 53.. it was a fun time for all!! Get your puzzle solving brains on! Made us want to try another room after we finished! We would most definitely come back.

Review №27

Had 14 of us split up into two rooms, and we all had a blast!! The staff was funny and helpful and the rooms were just the right amount of challenging! Very cool technology in the spy-themed room. 10/10 would recommend for a group of friends!

We went to The Escape Room yesterday for our son’s birthday party. It was a group of 7 fourteen-year-old boys. They were in The Lost Antidote room. They were able to escape just over the hour time limit. They had one clue remaining to solve and they were allowed to finish, which I thought was really nice. We also had The Uptown Murder room for my husband, older son and his friend. They said that room was much more difficult. Overall, we had a great time and would go again. The staff was accommodating and friendly. I recommend!

We went with our 3 teenage grandsons. Had a great time! Always fun to watch them work together to escape. The staff was very friendly. We have done a couple of the rooms and enjoyed them all. Great thing to do for grandparents wanting to spend time with older kids with no phones!!

Review №34

We had a blast! This was our first time going to an escape room so we didnt know exactly what to expect. We had 7 in our group (2 adults and 5 teenagers). We did Area 405 which has a 35% escape rating. We finished in just under 29 minutes shocking the staff. We will definitely go again and recommend it to anyone wanting a fun group activity.

Review №36

My wife and I have done 10+ Escape rooms and this one was one of the worst we have done. There are very few steps to breakout. Some of the clues were broken and the employee was unaware. We regretted spending money and sharing the experience with friends who had never done escape rooms before. Staff was very pleasant still but for those who have done quite a few we would recommend going somewhere else in town.

Puzzle was challenging yet accessible. Theres parking in front of building off 64th St or behind building. Staff was great. Puzzles had cool variety of locks and clues.

Had a good time with friends. One clue was hard to find due to a dark room and instructions to the contrary but other than that it flowed very well.

1st Time Group. Place easy to find w/parking right outside the building. Staff very friendly & helpful. Challenging but Fun!! We didnt Escape but we are excited to go back. An hour goes by SO FAST and the cost for 7 people is very reasonable. Thank you for an enjoyable experience.

Good attention and good puzzles. Although, I would love to see puzzles that relate to each other by some clues. The room details were highly elaborated and well marked. I would recommend some sound effects.

My co-leader and I brought our Cadette Girl Scout Troop here for a fun event and we all had the best time. They figured almost everything out on there own and we escaped with plenty of time to spare. They want to come back and do the other rooms. This is a perfect event to escape the heat of summer or cold of winter and bond with your friends and family.

Review №57

The workers there were great, they explained to us the rules clearly and helped us when we needed it. The room I did with my friends was also great with everything you would think a great escape room should have without making it impossible to solve. I loved the experience and it was a great group bonding activity! I highly recommend going, especially if you love trying to solve puzzles

My friends and I had a great time figuring out our room. We did the lab room, which was a great level of difficulty for our group to solve. The lobby is super nice, the rules are simple and help narrow our scope for the clues, and the story for the room really help set the mood and prepare you for the puzzles. Would absolutely recommend that you check it out!

Review №70

The puzzles were adequately challenging but they dont put much effort into making the rooms feel immersive. For example, having large bookshelves as decoration with maybe 5 small books on them when thats the only furniture in the room along with a few small pictures on the wall. The rooms in general just seemed bare. Ive had a much more immersive experience at another escape room in Omaha.

Review №71

My fiance and I did the murder room and completed it. It was very exciting! You really have to use your head. Its not anything too overwhelming and is definitely solvable by anyone in the sense that you dont need any special knowledge beforehand. We will definitely be going back to try a new scenario. I asked if they change up their scenes and they informed us they do about every 6-8 months!

Review №75

Had a wonderful time. I would have given a 5 star review but the worker was very rude. I called because our dinner reservations got pushed back. He said to make it there as soon as we could, so we did. We got there close to our original time and he seemed annoyed that we made it on time and said he “didn’t get a chance to get the room together.” We were the only people in the building on a Sunday night. Not too sure how long it takes to get the room ready but we waited for 20 minutes before we did anything. He was very rude and it was kind of awkward so we just talked amongs each other until he decided to look up from the desk.

Review №76

Disappointing experience yesterday. One critical padlock wasn’t reset from the visit before us, so we solved the room in our first discovery, then hung out for 15 minutes doing the other clues in the room before finally entering the code we found first to escape. There was no acknowledgement that our experience wasn’t what it was supposed to be. A small gesture like that would have been enough, but I won’t be going back now.

Review №79

I have done two rooms here and am very impressed. The rooms and puzzles are a good, but achievable challenge. Solved one room with 5 others and another with 3 others helping. The pricing is in line with other escape rooms in the area. The staff is friendly and helpful. We needed one hint, and the staff made it vague enough that we didnt feel too bad about needing it. I would recommend this facility to first timers or seasoned room solvers.

It was ok, we did the murder room. Some of the tools they provide are not in the best working condition... maybe intentional not sure but it made it difficult.... we could barely see the clues but it was fun and we still did well....as most of the escape rooms... a little pricey for an hr

Review №96

Despite how fun it was and how much we enjoyed it, I can only give this 3 stars because of how ridiculously its priced. $100 AFTER the employee gave us discounts. And thats one of the cheapest rooms! And this is the price you pay no matter how many people go into the room with you, so for just my boyfriend and I, it was pretty steep
