Monopoly was a fun & very different escape room experience than any other. Something for the whole family to do 😊. Set design and props were unique and specific to Monopoly🎩. Our GM Kay and every employee was super kind & friendly😃. This was a collaboration with Breakout & Hasbro so it was certainly unique and one-of-a-kind. Story was true to what would be apropos for someone playing the Monopoly board game 🎲 💰. We found some of the puzzles to be more challenging than they appeared and others simpler than they appeared 🧩, which made for an overall very tricky 🧐 puzzle experience. Glad we had plenty of hands 🙌🏽 on board for this one (3 adults and 2 kids🧑‍🧑‍🧒🧑‍🧒) because this game really benefited from having that many players. I don’t think I’d have been able to do it with any less than 3 adults, frankly. ♿️ This room was located upstairs in this location’s building so I’m not sure if this floor was wheelchair accessible (I’m presuming there was an elevator somewhere). Other than that, the room itself seemed very accessible with the exception of one important rather physical component of the game that requires someone to be using their legs (presumably, the GM could probably trigger this component though if someone was unable to use their legs). One other puzzle was a bit of a challenge for me because I have a bit of colorblindness 👁️ , but we still managed to figure it...

I had never done an escape room and I was a major skeptic. My kids wanted to do one while on vacation and I pushed back thinking the cost would not outweigh the benefit; I had little interest in it whatsoever. Enter, Breakout in Asheville who showed me one of the most entertaining hours of my life, no hyperbole. An employee, Jaush (im sorry im spelling your name wrong) was absolutely amazing at guiding us through our journey and my kids had a lot of fun. For me, I never really knew what to expect with an escape room and when I entered it, I got really excited. It is clear that Breakout spends their money on quality gameplay and rooms because it felt like no expense was spared in the story. I cannot express how much fun I had and halfway through it I was so engrossed in the mission that the first 30 minutes felt like 5 minutes. After we completed our mission in the nick of time, I was left feeling exhilarated and I wanted to go right back in and solve another puzzle. I'm not joking, it's all I thought about the rest of the day to the detriment of the rest of my family. I just kept going over each part of the puzzle and couldn't shut up about it. For three straight nights it was the last thing I thought about before going to bed. I found out that I'm an escape room junky and I need another fix. Thanks again to Breakout Asheville, I will be sure to do MANY more in the...
