None of our escape experiences require knowledge of the theme in order to escape. While Atlantis has the highest success rate of our rooms, it is not an “easy” room for adults to breeze through. Escape the 80’s has been conquered by those born after 1990 and Dino Lab has been conquered by those born after 65,000,000,000 BC. The only thing that may influence your group’s decision is the aesthetic and the difficulty. None of our rooms are scary, and they all offer something unique to experience!
Atlantis: 85% Success Rate
Dino Lab: 55% Success Rate
Escape the 80’s: 45% Success Rate
