Memphis Escape Rooms - South Main

Escape room
IRL

The best escape room I’ve done up to now. The perfect combination of story, puzzle design, and aesthetics. There were jump scares, and fun Jurassic Park references. We drove 4 hours roundtrip for this and it was well worth it!

A really fun take on “the Sandlot” as a back drop for an escape room. The story telling and set were phenomenal, you can tell some love went into this room. With sooo many rooms it was impressive. The hint system here was unique and short of an unlimited hint system this is as good of an implementation Ive seen. Using pre-voiced hints with in game characters almost ensures a limited hint system though. From a puzzle perspective though it was pretty 50/50. Some puzzles were extremely unique in their execution. The opening puzzle in the second room was by far my favorite. Other puzzles felt tedious or didn’t work as well as intended. We spent entirely too long on a very obtuse puzzle with including “dog tags” which in the end would have been impossible for us to solve with how worn down the paint was for those specific puzzles. We ended up solving it with some brute forcing which I hate. This puzzle kind of built some frustration in my play group that soured the room slightly. I hope to find my way back to CHI/MKE to try another 60 to escape experience because I did really like the room save for aforementioned puzzle.

An atmosphere driven room where puzzles feel like they have a purpose within the story being told. Some difficult puzzles too!

A wicked nostalgia trip with really fun sets. The final puzzle will surely have your whole team amped up. The best thong I can say is that the satisfaction this room gave my team was so sweet we immediately booked a second experience right after it. Pro-tip, our GM allowed us to use the Notes function on our phone for one particularly tricky puzzle near the end since they don’t provide a note taking device. Also if your team has 2 people and you want to do one of their larger experiences they will allow you to book it as a walk in for the price of two people instead of charging for the extra slot. (Assuming the game you want to play is open) One of the best meldings of good story and good puzzles I have ever played.

Squeeeaaaakkkkyyy flooooorssss. A well decorated room that's biggest downfall is the fact that some of the solutions were very esoteric which didn’t lead to the buzz that a good puzzle provides. I will also say, the dim lighting was atmospheric, but caused problems because it was well, dark. That said, you do get to perform one piece of "real magic" that is a ton of fun. Side note there is one moving set piece that was very comedic in how slow it was. You’ll know what I’m talking about when it happens. Our GM was also really quick to give hints that weren’t asked for, and that did somewhat kill the flow for my group. This review may sound negative, but it really isn't meant to be. This is a really solid room I would recommend to any of my friends. I just know the "Jurassic Project" one exists and is the quality Memphis Escape Rooms can achieve.

While I wouldn't quite call Meow Wolf an Escape room it is definitely an immersive experience and just about as cool as they come. There is plenty of story, small puzzles, and cool easter eggs to be found within the facility.

Avenue Q coded escape room, need I say more? The best part about this room is the sidekick you get to help you. That dude is fearless! While one piece of technology messed up on us the different creative tech was the highlight. From XRay machines to old school 3D animations there is a lot to like. This one loses points for being too easy. This company is much more focused on the experience of a room, which I can appreciate.
