Escape-It Stratford — Local services in Stratford

Puzzles were pretty bad. I wish more care and effort was put into the ambiance. The rooms are cluttered with nonsense that kind of adds to the theme. The creator of these rooms is ambitious to build a great room, but needs help to perfect it.

The rooms were not great and when she asked if we liked them, we made it obvious that they were just okay. Not once did she ask for input. I assume she thinks her rooms are much better then they really are.

The rooms are all lock box, combinations and keys. That is not the issue. We don't expect all escape rooms to be high tech and amazing effects. The execution of the puzzles were terrible. FYI, the Battleship puzzle is poorly executed in your rec room. CHANGE IT! AND... Why have sheets of paper that teach someone how to play chess when the puzzle has nothing to do with playing chess. Don't laminate sheets of paper that are meaningless.

Also, don't give the tool to figure out puzzles before you give the clue. Basic escape room building. We would figure out a code, then 5 minutes later find the clue to solve it. Building escape rooms are difficult, yes. So...

I booked an escape room for my husband and two friends to try. They seemed to have a good experience overall and rated the room a 7/10. They're older and have lots of experience doing escape room style games online. They felt the challenge was an appropriate level to enjoy the game. They were done with 10 minutes to spare. (This one was called "Bigfoot"). The owner was friendly and accommodating and I would definitely use the space again in the future for something different. I'm grateful we have this here...

Had my daughter's 5th birthday party here. The staff was amazing and built a custom barbie escape room for my daughter. The kids successfully got barbie to the party on time by using clues to unlock outfits and clues to the final safe ❤️. 5...
