Company Trapped! Escape Room

There’s a legit surprise, cheerful theming, and a nice mix of puzzles. One dexterity element wasn’t my favorite but it fit the vibe, and our GM Rose balanced guidance so both I and my son got to contribute. Not scary, though there are some flashing lights, and even my 4-year-old had fun.

Fern ran our game and she was fantastic—gentle nudges for my kid, space for me to figure things out. Cute, zero-scare room with one silly dexterity moment that made us laugh. Left smiling and still talking about Grandma.

A solid espionage room with an office setting that fits the theme even if it isn’t flashy. Character moments and a little dress-up add charm, and our GM was on point. Puzzles tracked well, but the room needs some love—one prop showed obvious answer wear and we think an end sound cue was missing. We actually finished the main mission around 35 minutes and got stopped mid bonus puzzle at 60, which f... Expand

Great mission-style tasks that keep everyone busy, plus cutscenes and playful penalties when you botch a code. The GM-in-character comms and assigning roles made it feel like a real op. We finished quickly and got adaptive bonus puzzles, which were okay but pushed the big finale back. Still had a good time, just not one I’d travel across town for.

Two experienced players here: we finished the main objective in about 23 minutes and wrapped the three bonus puzzles for a total of 49. The room feels a bit older but still charming, the story is amusing, and Fern was a great GM both times we visited.

Great pick for families. My 7-year-old could help, the 4-year-old just enjoyed the spectacle, and nobody got spooked. Bonus puzzles kept the adults engaged.

Adorable and wacky with lots of twists, but fairly easy overall. We went as a duo and still had extra time, and Jack was stellar while juggling the whole place. The room shows its age and one puzzle was down, but he swapped in an alternative on the spot.

This one swings from parallel solving to a more linear flow, and we even got extra puzzles after finishing early. A goofy dexterity bit made me laugh, a caregiver-flavored task hit close to home, and while the story went a little off the rails, the puzzles were solid overall.

Fun ideas and smooth flow, but one prop was finicky and the background music felt loud under time pressure. Still finished early and got extra puzzles, which were fine but softened the finale for me.

I wanted to love this after Rabbit Hole, but a couple puzzles misfired and my radio wasn’t working at the start, which the GM admitted should’ve been set up. Early on there were piles of papers that felt messy and confusing. The concept is cool, but having extra puzzles only if you’re fast was frustrating—I’d rather it be part of the main line.
