Wasnt too sure how fun this would be but ended up having a great time here! Staff was great and puzzles were a lot of fun. They gave just enough little hints to keep you from getting too stuck for too long but not enough where it took away from the experience. It definitely would have been cool to have 2 hours with absolutely no help what so ever. You dont need any specific level of education to go here, I think the puzzles are very fair and most play more off of life experiences than they do "book smarts". One hour goes by super quick. Would love to give more info but I dont want to give anything away. Youll just have to check it out for yourself! ;) Also, if youre going with a group and splitting up; consider doing 1 room then switching and doing the other. The drive home without talking about your room (in case you go back) is really hard!

This was my second time doing a clue room but was my first experience solving it completely. Such a neat and creative place and was well put together. The Poe room was challenging and was well thought through. We were able to complete it with 4 minutes left and cannot stop talking about how cool it was. The staff was overwhelmingly knowledgeable and friendly and went out of their way to help make our experience a memorable one. Thank you charm city clue for making this an experience that we will be sure to come back to. Cant wait for the next challenge!

Charm City Clue Room is a great escape room experience. Each rooms theme is tied to Baltimores history and the clues were the perfect level of difficulty where it required teamwork to figure it out but wasnt impossible. We did the Poe room and even though it only has a 35% escape rate, we were able to escape with only 4 minutes to spare! The staff were friendly and helpful and really made the experience. I would definitely recommend Charm City Clue Room as the #1 escape room in Baltimore!

Id never done an escape room before, but this was great! I grew up on puzzle games, riddles and brain twisters and the Poe Room had an excellent collection of them! Our group was a mix of friends and strangers, and we all ended up working really well together. Told my wife I want to go back for my birthday! They have 3 different rooms, and the Poe Room is advertised as their hardest, with a 35% success rate. I could certainly see why! I highly recommend going!

This was our fourth Clue/Escape Room experience and it was one of the best, if not the best. We did the Poe room (6 of us) and I understand why the success rate is 30% or so. We did escape in time, but our past experiences definitely helped us along the way. Anyways, the facility was very nice, the manager (owner?) was very enthusiastic and did a great job explaining things to us before AND after the challenge. I would highly recommend this Clue Room

Took my mom for her 75th birthday, we had a great time at the Poe Room. They were excellent hosts and the puzzles employed a good combination of thought processes. The whole family enjoyed it, and each other which is not always easy when the eight of us are "locked" in room together. Hopefully well get together and come back for another mystery soon.

Did the Edgar Allen Poe themed room and it was great! Our group of four loved the challenge it offered without being overbearing. The puzzles were inventive with multiple pieces and steps to lead to bigger clues! It was our first time, but it definitely wont be our last!

I took two of my daughters and my 2 Co workers last weekend and we had the best time. Though we didnt solve the room we all agreed to come back and face another room! The staff was awesome from the moment I booked to the time we left. This will be my goto Escape room.

This place is awesome! They set up such and amazing experience for a good price. Doing this was WELL worth the 3-4 beers you could get for the same amount of money. The moderators make you feel very safe by giving you clues when you need them. One word: Unforgettable!

Did the B&O Railroad and the Poe room - both were awesome! There were plenty of unique twists and turns to keep the neurons firing in different directions. I definitely recommend checking this place out, and I cant wait to come back for the Dark Carnival room!

Did the Poe room with 3 other people and we all had a blast! The atmosphere was great and the employees and service were awesome. Definitely was the best experience weve had out of all the places weve played and were all hoping to be back soon!

Had a terrible experience here. The employee there was rude, and the rooms are tiny, we had to leave because they squeezed 8 people in a cardbox sized room! Definitely would not have been able to stay there for an hour.

This was my first experience and it was totally awesome!!! We worked with another couple very well and solved the Railroad room with 1:20 left! I highly recommend you and your friends go and have an awesome time!!!!!

An amazing escape room experience! ! Top 3 Ive ever done!! We did the poe room and we loved it and escaped just in the nick of time. Great decor props challenges and puzzels and cudos to the staff who were great

Awesome experience. My company went for a team building exercise. We had two teams that did the Spy room and the Poe room. Neither of the teams escaped but it was fun and exciting! Cant wait to do it again!

We had a wonderful family escape here this morning. Shavonne (sorry, I didnt ask how to spell your name!) and Shawn were friendly, helpful, and entertaining. We escaped the Spy Room with 6:05 to spare!

I didnt know what to expect when we booked one of the clue rooms. It turned out to be such a fun experience. Even if our mission failed ! Cant wait to try the other rooms

This was a wonderful experience for us. It was our first time participating in an escape room challenge. We did it with time to spare! Definitely something to do again.

Very challenging and fun. Most fun my family and I have had in a long time. It was six months ago and we are still talking about it.

Alexander Kimtis

The staff was great and friendly. The room was set up and nothing was out of place. Tons of fun to do with my friends.

Its a fun evening out. The area is $$$ if you plan on dinner and drinks afterward. Weekends are hell in this area too.
