An escape room is an activity in which the players solve a variety of fun cerebral and physical puzzles using leads, clues, and physical objects they discover as they explore inside the room itself. The room has an engaging theme. The players are given a time limit to reach their ultimate objective to “escape”.
We are open Thursday, Friday, and Saturday by reservation. Times vary depending on day and time of year. You may click the red “Check Availability & Book” button below. Then select a room theme to check available dates and times.
We require payment for at least 3 people to reserve an escape room. If a group of just 2 people pay for 3 people, the escape room can be booked and 2 people may attempt to escape. The escape rooms are intended to be run with a group of 3 or more people. For room maximums: The Blizzard Escape has space for groups up to 7 people; Through the Looking Glass is large enough for groups up to 8 people; The Untouchables has a suggested max of 9 people; and The Cursed Treasure has a suggested max of 10 people.
If you have a group that needs 2 rooms at the same time, please contact us at info@exitstrategyescaperoom.com.
Due to the difficulty in puzzles and tasks, we suggest the minimum age of 12 years old. That is just a suggestion based on difficulty. Children 7+ have enjoyed the escape room as part of a family. Please be aware: The Untouchables room features bottles of liquor and wine, as well as cigars. The Cursed Treasure room features bottles of rum and a fake pouch of tobacco. Minors under 16 years old must be accompanied by an adult.
All of our escape rooms are private, meaning you will not be mixed with another group. Pricing is per-person and varies depending on your group size.
Group of 3: $35 per person
Group of 4 - 5: $32 per person
Group of 6+: $27 per person
The Cursed Treasure hosts up to 10 people. The Untouchables hosts up to 9 people. Through the Looking Glass has a max of 8 people. The Blizzard Escape has a max of 7 people.
