THE QUICK ANSWERS.

Here are the basics to know before your visit to Big Screen Escapes.

01

BEFORE YOU BOOK

What is an escape room? +

You’re “locked” in one of our rooms for 60 minutes, working your way through a legendary story while solving puzzles, figuring out combinations to locks, and using some other creative methods to get things to open in order to find your way to the end and “escape.” We should note, the doors are never actually locked!

Are our rooms private? +

Yes, all Big Screen Escapes bookings are 100% private. You will never be paired with strangers.

How long is an escape room? +

You'll have up to 60 minutes to complete your mission. Plan for a little additional time before and after the game for your introduction and wrap-up.

Can two people play? +

Yes — two-player groups can absolutely play! Some rooms may feel more challenging with fewer hands, but it’s very doable (and a blast).

Are escape rooms family-friendly? +

It’s an experience that is fun for the entire family! Bring the kids! Bring Grandma! Everyone loves fun.

Are the rooms scary? +

Only if it sounds scary to be in a room with your family and friends for 60 minutes! Kidding asside, our rooms are appropriate for all ages and are not scary.
