Small, densely-packed and dimly-lit Gen 1 room. The colonial flavor is as strong as the in-room tea service. Our Frengamin Banklin was fantastic!

I did this room a long time ago when it was still at Escape Room Era. Everything was familiar at Escapades location but in a much smaller space. It was pretty crampy with just the 3 of us. The lighting was a lot dimmer than the original which made it challenging and I liked it better at this location. I just wish there were more candles to roam around with. This was a pretty fun Gen 1 room!

First game at Escapade! Hosts were very friendly and welcoming. Jacob even gave us a sneak preview for their new room! Game itself ran smoothly, some cool puzzles I haven’t seen before. 100% homemade, original room. Some alignment issues with the last puzzle. I’d come back, especially for Zoe! Four people was a bit cramped in here, I’d say don’t go above four.

We were on it today and it felt like everything clicked. However, the puzzles were really cool and there were ones I hadn’t seen before. Really enjoyed this room and our GM Jacob was great

This was an amazing room. Our GameMaster Jacob was amazing and with the help of Joseph made our experience even more enjoyable. It is a fun room with some historical touches that will make you think. You don't need to remember your history, but some basic Ben Franklin knowledge could help.

The staff has been super welcoming, entertaining and encouraging. Our GameMaster Jacob made sure we were not only entertained, but also kept on track when we happened to stumble on a puzzle.

This was a fun room I don't know why but the easy games usually kick our butt but we made it out with 20 seconds to spare our game master Jacob was hilarious definitely played the part his partner Joseph also played along. Much kudos to both of our game Masters can't wait to come back and play Zoe and Pinocchio in October.
