RISE Escape Rooms - Spellbound

Definitely our groups favorite of the three and a really great way to wrap up our time there. The room is super well-designed and make a great use of space, decorations, puzzles, sounds, and really everything to give you a thrilling time. From the moment you enter, to all the twists and turns between, right until the end, everything really came together.

Price:$$$28 per person

Theme:★★★★This theme is great, and from start to finish it feels like you are thrown right on into a witches home. I really enjoyed how well things were done and how elements flowed as you made progress.

Quality:★★★★★Things worked great, especially when we stopped to follow instructions.

Difficulty:★★★There are so many different things to do, and a wide variety of elements in play as you progress. We definitely had to split up and try different things to be successful.

Fun:★★★★★This was a pleasure the whole time, and we love everything about it.

RISE Escape Rooms - The Bookie

Of their three rooms, this one was the hardest for us - not because of the room itself so much as us being difficult about it all on our own. There are definitely some great decor elements, puzzles very much in line with the theme, and surprises. We also enjoyed how some of the puzzles played on teamwork to get the best solution. Another thing we missed in here was doing a good job finding things, which you would think we'd be better at by now. I would say that I spent the most time in this room working with Meredith, but we also moved around and tried puzzles as they suited our skill sets.

Price:$$$28 per person

Theme:★★★This room looks nice, and components within are fun to experience. However, as usual we struggled with the setting as none of us really know how these games work in real life - and while this wasn't necessary, it did throw us off.

Quality:★★★Things worked great in the room, and we were able to split up and work on things as needed.

Difficulty:★★★★There was a lot going on, and we made this much harder than it needed to be because of our hesitation with the theme. The puzzles made great use of the theme.

Fun:★★Through not fault of the room itself, we didn't enjoy this as much as the others they have because we got in our own heads. But it was still a challenge and we are glad to have done it.

RISE Escape Rooms - Hijacked

This was the first of three rooms we did in a row, and this was a fantastic start to the day. This is especially because they went above and beyond to be open while we were there, and their staff member did an amazing job in all three rooms we played. This first room was a great experience from start to finish - we really liked the introduction, the setup to the room, and how we started out. And making use of the space allotted was done in a clever way that made sure to only use things that might really be in a plane. The process of discovery and solving puzzles used skills from our whole group, and we really enjoyed this room.

Price:$$$28 per person

Theme:★★★★Once inside, this is quite impressive, and how you start out in the room is a fun beginning to a room that makes great use of the space and ideas.

Quality:★★★Write about the quality here.

Difficulty:★★★While there was a little trial and error, most of the puzzles in here were easy for the group, but there were plenty to keep us intrigued.

Fun:★★★★This was so fun - they really make the most of the space and your typical plane experiences to make this is fun and interactive room.
