Although Thomas Edison remains best known for the light bulb, those close to the scientist always theorized he kept his greatest work a complete secret. A mysterious assistant has contacted our team with the location of Edison's secret office in fear that his discovery might be compromised. Believing his life to be in peril, he has given us access to the office. The assistant also made it clear: If we don’t find answers within the hour, Edison’s work will be lost forever.​

I’ve always had a positive experience at Escape Garden State! I love that their room themes are all “Jersey-adjacent” too haha. Of the rooms here, Power Surge strikes me as the most traditional room. There is some evident wear and tear, but nothing that detracts from enjoyment or ability to solve puzzles. This room is also VERY spacious. Although I never recommend doing rooms with super large groups if you can avoid it, this one could easily accommodate it if needed.

Lobe that all the rooms at this establishment are jersey themed.....this one was well done just like all the other rooms. Harder than boardwalk but not so hard that we couldn't do it (mom and 2 kids).

First room I’ve done with my mom and it was a pleasant experience. Average story with pretty typical puzzles. Slightly difficult.

This room was a lot of fun! Immersive, great set design, nice game flow. There were some puzzles that I hadn’t seen before and they all fit in well with the theme. Our game master was also super attentive and helpful. Overall it was a good experience and I definitely will try other rooms at this establishment 🥰

This was my first room after 6 weeks of not doing one so I was a bit rusty. I kept overthinking everything but overall it was a relatively easy room. Would recommend for people looking for a quick easy fun room

  • This room had a good combination of "Gen 1 Tech" puzzles and regular lock puzzles.
