ESCAPE ROOM INFORMATION
What is an Escape Room?
An escape room is an activity where a small group of people are locked in a room full of hidden items, puzzles, and riddles. The object is to to solve the puzzles and break out before the time has expired.
Is the room really locked?
No. For the purpose of the game, the door will only figuratively be "locked". But since we can't legally lock you in a room (we're not interested in being arrested for kidnapping), no doors will actually be locked. Exits will always be available. But please note however that once you leave the escape room, the game is over for you. Your group can still continue on.
How long does this experience last?
Our escape room gives you a maximum of 60 minutes to escape. Anticipate 10-15 minutes beforehand to receive the rules and instructions for the room, and an extra 10-15 minutes afterwards for pictures. The entire experience should last no more than 90 minutes, less time if you're able to escape!
Is your escape room scary or dangerous?
No. Our escape room does not have any element of fear involved nor does it require participants to engage in any dangerous activity (climbing, lifting, etc). It can be a little mentally frustrating at times (LOL!), but it poses no threat to your well-being.
Do I need to be knowledgeable in math, science, or any other complicated subjects?
No. All of our puzzles involve basic logic, wit, teamwork, and thinking "outside of the box." No other special skills are required.
Are there age restrictions?
Generally speaking, no. But the ideal age is 13 and up, due to the complexity of the riddles and puzzles. We can, however, create age-appropriate escape rooms.
What if our group gets stuck?
Once you start, your group will be given three lifelines which you can use throughout your experience. If you get stuck, you can redeem a lifeline for a hint. However, you should use these lifelines sparingly and strategically.
Do I need to bring anything with me?
You will be standing and walking around the room the whole time. So wear comfortable clothes and shoes. Some of the puzzles will also involve reading, so if you have reading glasses, bring them with you. Otherwise, all you need is your thinking cap! Oh, and no cell phones are allowed!
How many people can you accommodate in an escape room?
Generally speaking, we recommend no less than two people, and no more than ten. Smaller groups will make the puzzles harder to solve, while larger groups could lead to a crowded space and lots of commotion.
How much does your escape room cost?
A & A charges $100 for escape rooms we facilitate (no limit on the number of guests involved) or $75 per escape room that you facilitate yourself. For an additional $20, we can provide a video of your Escape Room experience! *for local customers only*
What does you service include?
With A & A-facilitated escape rooms, we provide the clues, riddles, props, communication technology, combination locks, and any other components necessary to construct your escape room. With customer-facilitated, we only provide the clues and riddles. Any other materials will be up to you as the host to provide. Some of those items may include:
Where do you host escape rooms?
We host escape rooms at a location of your choosing. For the best results, we recommend hosting an escape room from your home. However, wherever you choose, we will work with you to scout the area beforehand and customize the riddles and puzzles to match your setting.
Who actually does this kind of thing? LOL!
All sorts of people participate in escape rooms. They are extremely popular! These are perfect for a unique date night, a get together with friends and family, special events, birthday parties, corporate events, or for people just looking for something new, fun, and challenging! We had a blast the first time we visited one. But we had even more fun hosting our own!
