The best escape room I have ever been to!
Our group of 8 did “The Attraction” room and it was so immersive! The challenges were diverse, and not repetitive in any way so each piece of the puzzle suited different skills. You really have to work as a group to get out in the 2 hr limit.
Located quite literally in the Palace of Fine Arts building this is a must do group activity!
10/10 recommend!
This was truly an intricately crafted and ornate escape room. The Great Houdini Escape Room was a uniquely curated space where woven historical moments were tied into creative puzzles, cryptography, and sequential analysis that push your cognitive skills to new heights. It puts into perspective the amount of creativity required to achieve this dynamic. Although not required, I recommend going into this escape room with a relatively sizable group that have some escape room experience making things more enjoyable. Whether you’re an avid historian, puzzle solver, or someone looking for a fun adventure give this place a try!
To the staff, thank you for your time, patience, and cordiality to accommodate my group near the closing hour. We absolutely appreciate you.
Here’s a photo of my group after we escaped Houdini’s elaborate design! Definitely excited to return in the near future!
We went with a team of 7 and played the Roosevelt room. It is a very fun and challenging room. We thoroughly enjoyed it. The hosts were very welcoming and explained us all the rules nicely. They give sufficient hints to allow us to make continuous progress. I highly recommend this for team building purposes. Finding the entrance to palace games can be challenging for first timers. It is on the outer Circle, near the parking space.
My favorite escape room ever. Loved how collaborative it was. Very imaginative. Well sequenced challenges. Also totally appreciate that the rooms were lit well enough for the “old folk” to see!
What's left to say of Palace Games?
It was the first name off the lips of everyone I told about my plans to reserve an escape room, and it's easy to see why. With a sharp group of 8, The Attraction was an experience we'll probably talk about for the rest of our lives. Exceptional puzzle design, seamless build quality, and the sort of twists and turns you'd expect from a high-concept video game unburdened by the limits of the physical world. Escapism in its purest form. Can't recommend it enough.
