Permanently Closed - A heavily armed group of paramilitary invaders have breached the White House. The President has been escorted to a safe bunker. All secret service agents on the premises have been neutralized. To make matters worse, the paramilitary group has launched a series of missiles that can only be disarmed inside the Oval Office.

Two people that work together well can complete this in under 60 minutes. Well thought-out puzzles and the theme is consistent throughout. I think this room is slightly older, so some of the props are a little banged up, but it doesn’t hinder the experience at all. Loved it!

Tatiana was an amazing GM. Very kind and helpful from the moment we walked in the door. She is genuinely interested in Escape Rooms, as opposed to someone just working the desk.. which helps immensely for immersion and the overall experience. Thank you Tatiana!!

Fun room. There was a lot to do. Just the 2 of us. Gave us extra time because one lock was backwards. Finished the room but well over the 60 min

For my last game with Americas Crisis at 1600 did not disappoint! Walking in we understood why this room was meant to be played with 4+ players but we are thankful that our GM’s gave us time to wrap up the end game. Many puzzles and tasks to do throughout the experience but each were novel and had a fair amount of depth! Had a lot of fun here overall :)

This is a great first escape room for beginners! This was one of my first escape rooms and while I think I’d have a different opinion if I were to play it today, I really enjoyed it for what it was. The setting was a little bland but they did have a pretty cool target puzzle!

Loved the history and the puzzles, all the history references, and details put into the room. I would recommend this room to anyone, but would highly suggest more than two people for your team

One of the first games I ever played. Loved it. It still stacks well in the almost a hundred I’ve done. Highly recommend. We really felt the pressure at the end.

For the gameplay itself, there was PLENTY to do. Definitely can be done with larger crowds. We did it with two players and barely made it out with 6 seconds to spare and felt having two extra sets of eyes, ears, and hands would have been super helpful. The decor was ok, I think that’s where AEG is lacking in general as they rely on painted walls and wallpapers instead of physically building a set like escape effect, mystique, the escape ventures, game over Tampa, etc. So you go to AEG for the puzzle challenges versus the immersion. Other than that, it was fun, like I said PLENTY of things to do albeit they have no rhyme or reason as to why they would be in the Oval Office so once again it’s all about authenticity and the quality or the theming which is lacking here. Just enjoy the puzzles and try to escape but AEG, unless they prove it to me otherwise with future creations, will not be in my top 5 or top 10 because there are many other companies that truly go above and beyond to make incredibly immersive and realistic rooms so I have to give them props…they deserve it…but for puzzles..AEG will keep you busy the full hour
