My sister in law and I were on a family Vaca in Nampa. Our husbands and a bro date so we decided to have a mom's night out.
We decided on an escape room. We figured if we didn't escape then our kids were safe and in good hands.
I've done escape rooms before, but Labyrinth is on a whole nother level. As soon as you walk in you are transported to a new world. They have made this not just a room but a whole experience. It's low lighting and mystical. Ryan greeted us enthusiastically and was excited we were there. My SIL pre ordered a drink so he took us back to the bar. She had a maitai. I do wish they had a sugar free sprite, but they did have Coke products thats a huge A+. After she got her drink we went and sat in one of the many very cool waiting areas.
We waited maybe 5 min and then Ryan took us to our ship wreck. He did an excellent Job explaining the rules and describing the scene we were in. He told us to duck and he was serious. When the door opens if you don't duck you'll run onto a wall..we crawled into the ship wreck. The way have they rooms set up is super detailed. Make sure you have your lantern...you will need it. I love that they have unlimited clues IF you need them.
That's where Ryan became Jarvis/Alfred. He was an excellent game master. He was helpful without telling exactly what to do. I won't give too much away, but the puzzles are REALLY well done. I will say, at the end he said one puzzle that I solved rather quickly is usually the hardest for people. In the 2nd room there is a cool effect that made us jump.
In the end we survived with 13 min to spare. Ryan also showed us the other rooms we could do. We don't live in Idaho, but we want to come back to do the other rooms.
I definitely recommend labyrinth escape rooms. 10/10. Ryan is the best!!
Also if you pre order drinks it's cheaper and you can't drink till you're in the room.
Thank...
Read moreOkay, first time going to a proper escape room and may I just say WHAT A HIGH NOTE TO START ON, WOOOH! I am beyond impressed with this place, the ambience is set as soon as you open the door. I mean, the attention to detail is insane. Eat your heart out, Disneyland, HA! The "Intentional Mandela Effect" notice was my favorite. After taking in the sights from the comfy and themed lounge area, our hilarious, amazing, entertaining, smart, beeeeeeautiful host Marissa took us into our time machine and delivered the rules in a fun and clear way. I can't overstate the setting and your surroundings, it's surreal. We did Shipwrecked with a trio: me and the hubs (thirties) with our kiddo in tow (10). Your host is there to help and Marissa was a freaking pro. She was always helpful when asked and managed to keep it immersive. And get this: during one puzzle, she could see and hear our daughter get frustrated and insecure about not "helping as much" and Marissa went out of her way to ask "the young traveler" to help solve a puzzle and pitched her the intro. Our kid solved it and it made her entire evening. That was really, really memorable and it takes a special person to intuit that and then assist in an experience saving way. I think our wonderful host may have created a core memory, no joke. I'm still so warm and fuzzy from watching that. Oh my gosh, then we solved the puzzle with ten seconds to spare!!! The special effects were A M A Z I N G! Notice how I'm typing like an overexcited child! Marissa took photos of us and even answered my questions about the adult rooms. We will be coming back and this place comes highly recommended. WORTH EVERY PENNY, if you're thinking about trying this...
Read moreIF you love puzzles and code finding… IF you love highly trained and entertaining guides… IF you love a complete experience with lighting, decor and different rooms… IF you want all other escape rooms to be RUINED for you… This is the place for you!
But seriously, I don’t think I will do any other companies escape rooms now! We had a BLAST at their Boise location. We originally booked Gold Rush where you’re transported back in time to a well thought out and very decorated location. If you’ve been disappointed in other escape rooms by their lack luster decor and really no feeling of being anywhere special (like you just checked into a 90s motel) then this is the place to go. Just go to their lobby and you’ll KNOW you want to do an adventure here! They hire trained actors to be your guides which made the entire experience amazing, thanks Brad! We finished gold rush with 14 minutes left in our hour and asked to look around their other room at the Boise location (ancient Egypt) and were blow away by the attention to detail and the different feel to the room. They didn’t have the room booked for the next time slot so we quickly snapped it up! They have a discount if you stay-and -play additional adventures. We were faster this time with 17 minutes left. It was so fun!
We asked about how often they change or update rooms and they said every year-year and a half, which is great! I love that I can come back and have a completely different adventure or the same time stream with different unique puzzles. I know it seems expensive but it is WELL worth it! You will be talking about this adventure for...
