There is a reason all the reviews you read on this place are so great and 5 star. Twisted Limits has the best escape rooms that I have been to and they are truly immersive into a story as you solve the puzzles and "escape" in the 60 minutes time limit. The owners truly go above and beyond to provide an amazing experience from the moment you walk in the door. If you are looking for something to do with friends, family, co-workers, etc. make sure to try Twisted Limits Escape Rooms. After trying the first room, I was hooked and have been bringing other groups of people to come with me. The puzzles are imaginative and go far beyond the lock-centric style that you see in many of the other escape rooms in the area. And the puzzles are set up in such a way that everyone in your group can actively participate instead of having to stand around and watch one or two people work through one puzzle at a time. Twisted Limits is honestly the best escape rooms that I have experienced.

Awesome experience! My first time doing an escape room. Ideally they said the best group size is 4-6 people and I went with a group of 8, the max amount. It was definitely a "too many cooks in the kitchen" type situation, but the puzzles were challenging yet simple enough for the whole group to participate, and no one had to be sitting on the sidelines which was really quite impressive. The room was excellently done, with detail that really made you immersed in your "story". I think having 8 people made communicating about the puzzles difficult and although we were so close we did not "make it out" in time. It was still such a complete blast and absolutely totally worth it! I will most definitely be going back to try another room, perhaps with a smaller group. We were early for our booking time too, and their party/waiting room was simply amazing. Just fantastic hosts that really go above and beyond to truly make it an experience.

Ive done both rooms and had an amazing time at Twisted Limits. The clue system is the best I have seen. They use a tablet in one room and a tv in the other. The hosts are watching the entire time and add an extra element to the game. They even have an opening video for the Executive Order room where you get to meet your agent. She talks to you along the way. It is really clever and allows you to be taken into the story. They key is to work together. Its harder than you think. Id love to see the success rate percentage posted on the website for each of the rooms. Such a good place! Highly recommended.

This is the best escape room, hands down! These rooms are creative, realistic and mind blowing! I drive over an hour to come here and its worth it! Great service and location. They have free snacks and beverages. They allow you to bring in alcohol to relax before and/or after. They love hearing your input and they have customized everything by hand. This isnt a cheap hole in the wall that youll conquer in 30 minutes. This is gray for team building, parties, anniversaries and more! Two rooms open with five more coming!

I enjoyed this with a party of 8 with ages ranging from (13-65). Get ready to start thinking creatively. Twisted limits does a fantastic job of creating a unique experience for your family, coworkers, and/or friends. Communication is a must. Lots of smiles and laughs in this adventure. Theres a lounge area before you start complete with refreshments, cookies, and brownies. ( All free too) I definitely recommend twisted limits for anyone looking to experience something fun and new.

Definitely the best escape room Ive been to and they said they werent even finished yet. Not only did everything actually work unlike most places, the puzzles were clever. The tablet communication was a cute touch I thought and was amusing even if you are so good you dont need hints. My whole family went, 8-83 so it works for any age group, though it did require having at least one younger person who can do physical activities.

Absolutely great experience! Totally original puzzles and well put together. Ive done other escape rooms and this was far better! Needed about two more minutes to escape. :-( the owners are super nice guys and great hosts. Looking forward to the next rooms they put together because well definitely be back for those!

My group and I went in to twisted limits with low expectations because we never did an escape room before. Personally, this is one of the most unique, fun, and adrenaline packed experiences Ive ever had. If you have or have not been to an escape room before, I highly recommend you go to twisted limits!!

Finally, the third room, The Omega Hour, is finished and it was worth the wait. After doing the first two, I didnt think they could get better. But this one is packed with challenging and original riddles. The Omega Hour will make you think. And the theme of this one is... dare I say... twisted.

We just surprised our kids on their birthday with a Twisted Limits challenge, and they LOVED it! Everybody did, ages 11-66. Awesome fun for group entertainment, extremely friendly, professional,and homegrown staff. We will definitely be going again, and would highly recommend it for anybody

Nicole Marie

This experience was fantastic! Ive done several escape rooms in the area and this is one of the best! We did the Behind the Curtain experience with 3 people and escaped with 13 seconds to spare! Our game master was attentive and friendly. Will definitely be back to try the other rooms!

The best time I have had in a long time! There were enough clues and riddles to keep our whole group busy the whole hour! We didnt finish but that was just fine! We will go back again to see if we can get it done. The best. This is a must do. Well worth the money spent.

We went for my wifes birthday. This was all of our first experience with an escape room. It far exceeded our expectations. Very well done. Lots of neat twists and turns. I cant recommend it enough. Well definately be back to try the other rooms.

Absolutely something to experience! Terrific challenge to share with friends or family. Owners are very friendly and professional. Think that you are sharp? Give this a try, you might be humbled! GREAT PLACE!

Tommy Oates

One of the best escape rooms I have ever done. Has tough puzzles, but they fit with the scene and there is a great story behind it, even if it can be a bit subtle. That makes it all the better.

Andrea Lange

Unbelievably fun. Very challenging and made you think. Will definatell go again and book another room. We didnt escape but came close. Owner was a great host. I love this place.

James Melton

This place is just so much fun. Repeat visits are possible, but its not like a favorite restaurant. Its worth the price of admission far beyond most any option in the area.

Juan Salinas

We had a blast, we had a group of 5. The challenges are thought provoking and feasible. There a so cool little twist and you can tell the owners care. Highly recommended.
