The parking situation is a bit horrific in this area, but its an old home turned into this escape room place. Our group arrived a little late, so we were told we werent receiving our full 1 hour, and the timer had already started upon our arrival. For me, that was the biggest disappointment about the experience, as our group was one step towards the very end and solving the puzzle, but we lost 7-8 minutes of our time before even beginning. The game itself is fun and creative, and apparently we had the hardest room. You do unlock two extra rooms before fully escaping, and receive 3 hints. The difference between this escape room and the one in Englewood, is when they say a hint, its a hint, where Englewood will basically give the clue away to help you move on.

So far Ive done two of the rooms here, both with my fiancée. We did The Other Side with two other couples, and managed to finish (in record time!), and then, since they had an open time slot, we attempted The Moustache Thief on our own, and didnt finish in time. I think, if I were to go back and try some of their other rooms, Id want to go with more than two people. Otherwise, it can be a bit overwhelming. Ive been to 4 escape/puzzle rooms in CO, and Epic might be my favorite. I felt like they were more creative with the escape room format than others, and the rooms were a lot more challenging than the one I did at Puzzah!. I definitely plan to go back and try another of their rooms.

I planned a surprise birthday event for a friend here and booking online was quick and easy. The rooms themselves are housed in a charming and beautiful century home. The staff were very responsive even when I realized I had made a booking mistake and had to change the date on short notice. The room theme was very well thought out and consistent with a story/theme which added to the flow of the puzzles. The provided phone intercom and staff monitoring the room is also very helpful to help ensure the group doesnt get stalled too long, but always ask so that you only get as many hints as to suit the group. I can easily see why this is one of the top rated escape room venues in the city.

Met with Michelle and her staff. They were very kind and gracious hosts. Having never been involved in any escape game before we (four of us) had a blast. We wound up completing or should I say "attempted to complete" three rooms. They were all very challenging, exciting and fun. While far from easy, they are not so difficult that you feel the need to give up. We enjoyed every minute. We all felt the need to say thanks and encourage other to try this somewhat new type of gaming experience. This business will continue to grow wide and far in my opinion. Thanks Michelle!!!!

Woo! What a great, well put together, well planned, challenging, fun experience! Myself and 5 friends booked the Timescape room and wow did it impress. The room itself had very unique and challenging puzzles. It was put together in a way that really took you to another place in time. Everyone that worked there was very friendly and knowledgeable. Shoutout to Pacific who helped when we needed and was on point, he would be perfect if only he had the voice of Morgan Freeman, but thats really digging for any criticism! Cant wait to go back!

We have done many escape rooms. The home is an awesome back drop for the escape rooms. We did CONSPIRACY THEORY the puzzles seems disjointed. There was a couple puzzles you could unknowing solve 1st before another which I think can be confusing I puzzle we solved and we did not even know it was a puzzle. So that was kind of weird. Then there was a "clue" you got for one of the puzzles that you needed for the very end but you did not realize is was a clue. So we will try another room but if its like this room we probably wont go back.

I made a trip to this particular gaming house as a birthday surprise for my husband. There were a couple of small issues with technical difficulties and whatnot but the staff was super helpful and even gave us extra time. I was hoping that we would get to do the game alone but we ended up having to play with other people. It turned out fine because they were great, I just wished I had known that previously. All in all though, it was a good experience for a couple of first timers. My husband loved it. Thanks guys!

The 15-minute early show up policy is a little rough for Denver traffic, but our Game Master (Im not sure what they call themselves at this place) was super duper helpful, sweet and attentive. The room we did might get a little crowded for a bigger group. It was just two of us which made trying to figure everything out a bit more hectic, but that made it more fun for us as well. And we escaped with just a couple minutes left!

Our group was skeptical at first about the concept of an escape room. Even at first glance, the rooms might not appear impressive, but that was where our skepticism ended. The puzzles were well thought out and kept our interest. The hour ran incredibly fast, but definitely was worth it. The staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for something different to try!

Friendly staff, and a very fun hour. There were 4 of us, in a room with up to 8 participants; we all felt that 8 would have been tight, and maybe awkward if there were strangers, depending on their social skills. It was our first time, though we are seasoned at puzzle games. We thought the challenges were just right. We didnt escape, though we were close. Ours was the Pikes Peak room, with a 39% success rate.

We did this for my birthday and had a great time! We had never done anything like this and decided to do the hardest room. We didnt win but it was extremely fun, intellectually invigorating and was an awesome way to come together. The staff was very friendly and and we felt they were rooting for us the entire time. I strongly suggest this and we will be back! Vengeance for Father Time will be ours!

This was our first escape room experience. We were a group of 8 with ages ranging from 10 to 48. The location in an historical house in Denver was great. We did the Conspiracy Theory Room. Our game master, Tom was a helpful and engaging. The puzzle was fun and challenging enough for our group. I would definitely recommend it to friends and we will be returning.

This is the first escape room Ive ever gone to. We were a group of 4, and have the room to ourselves. It was insanely fun. If scheduling had worked out, I would have gone another round at the first possible opportunity. Sadly, we could not solve a puzzle in time. That doesnt bother me at all.

I did the Timescape room today and I was thoroughly impressed. Kenzie was our puzzle master and tried really hard to carry us out of the room to no avail. Ive done about a dozen escape rooms around the Denver area and this was probably my favorite. Really creative and challenging room.
