Route 51

Route 51 was such a fun experience!! The puzzles were cleevr and engaging, and the room had a great atmosphere from start to finish. Jack was a fantastic host and kept the energy up. We loved it so much, we decided to jump into another game right after..

We had such a great time! We were seriously impressed by all the clever alien-themed touches throughout. The storyline itself was really cute, and everything felt cohesive and intentional. The staff knew exactly when to step in with a soft nudge in the right direction.

No clues! Puzzles were cohesive to the room theme

This is the nicest escape room building I’ve ever been to, highly recommend!

I was so excited to see this escape room company open up. When we first walked in, we were very impressed. I’ve been in restaurants that weren’t as nice as this. Everyone was super friendly and very accommodating and encouraged us to take our time and enjoy hanging out. We were very impressed with the rooms we especially loved route 51. I thought the game flow and puzzles were unique and just challenging enough. I really feel that any negative reviews, this room may have received in the past were taken into consideration and improvements have been made because our experience was absolutely positive. We played the morning after as well, and genuinely laughed at some of the props and puzzles. The wizard trial was a gorgeous room, probably the easiest of the three we did today, but no less delightful. I hope panIQ has a long and prosperous run at this location. It’s a delightful spot to for any escape room enthusiast.

Just discovered this place that apparently only opened a couple a months ago. We got a VIP experience because it’s all so new and pristine and the staff seems genuinely excited about the launch. We really lucked out with Jack as a terrific game master in the wizards room, he was present and fast to respond whenever we needed help or guidance. This room is AWESOME. The trailer doesn’t do it justice, actually the trailer is a little weird, but the vibe of the room and the puzzles are just a blast to go through. It’s magical without feeling like a knockoff of somebody else’s idea. You’ll see your classic witchy iconography like potions and wands, but there are creative and fun new elements that I’ve rarely seen. We also did the Gas Station 51 room to take advantage of their deal to book another game for 30% off. We could’ve booked it for another day, but we were on a bit of a high and decided to jump right back in. The alien gas station theme is unique and fun with fewer but more challenging puzzles featured in the room. Our game host Josh was just terrific and allowed us to go over the interesting mechanics of the room and various puzzles. On the whole I preferred wizards to alien, but found both enjoyable. My partner and I spent a day enjoying each others company at PaniQ and we loved it so much. The shooting gallery add on, which is such a good deal it would’ve been stupid not to do, was so fun, there are arcade games and a tasty nonalcoholic bar in the lobby, which is picture perfect and beautifully put together. As a bonus we got to talking to the lovely bartender Sky, and she introduced us to Trey, another employee who was so kind as to offer us a preview of the soon to open Quiz Game. SO. MUCH. FUN. I can’t recommend this place enough, not only the escape rooms, but the whole event of spending the afternoon was just fabulous. I’m excited for the superhero room to open, we’ll be back :)

we were excited for PanIQ Room to open nearby. Sadly, after trying both Area 51 and Casino Heist, we left disappointed. Area 51 was nearly impossible to complete with 2 people in just 45 minutes (it’s now 60, but too late for us, and some of the games were just time wasters). Great set design, but not worth the price until the gameplay is more polished.

I don’t like the hint system at all. A lot of time is wasted for them to type it out.

I've done close to 100 escape rooms, and PanIQ is EASILY one of my favorite places I've ever been to. The entire place is gorgeous + thoughtfully crafted to host parties of different sizes and experience levels. They have almost as many non-escape entertainment options as escape rooms, and the lounge/bar area is so photogenic it's absurd. The only places I've seen go the extra mile with their space like this were in Vegas. They just opened, so definitely check it out before it gets too busy!! Room Design: Excellent. The concepts are super fun and well thought out, and you can tell they built the rooms with a ton of attention to detail in the art and props. My group did the Wizard Trials room and Route 51 room, and we'll 100000% be back to do the rest. The puzzles were innovative and highly interactive. I would recommend Route 51 for groups with people newer to escape rooms. Both were family friendly! Staff: Excellent. SO kind and attentive, great energy. Shoutout to Sam, Joshua, and Kylie for taking good care of us!! Bonus 1: They have this awesome laser gun shooting gallery in the reception area that you can play with your friends while you're waiting?! It's genius. Perfect way to get hype and loosen up with a mini-game before the main event. Bonus 2: Private karaoke room!!! And a very pretty one at that - futuristic disco vibe (selfie lighting out the wazoo). Song book included K-pop and the Pokemon theme song! Bonus 3: A QUIZ ROOM! We only got a peek at the set, since it isn't open yet, but we nerded out nonetheless because it looks awesome. I don't know who's been listening in to our dreams of battling friends on a trivia game show, but they nailed it. Overall: 10/10 - just pop in for the vibes if you still need convincing. We'll be back!

Really fun and creative set!
