Rating: 6/10 Difficulty: 10/10 Coolness: 8/10 Sketchy remote location. Darkly lit office space out of the way. Came early but got a rude welcome. Despite the surroundings they didn’t let us in (we were early) because they don’t open the doors until 15 min before the game. Not friendly if traveling on girls night out. Not close to dining options. Game master were not too friendly at first. They have this and one location in Austin. They only have one escape room but offer the unique offer of customizing your difficulty. Naturally we choose the expert setting with only 10% escape rate.. Very cool concept Waiting room very industrial but restroom needs work. Not female friendly Fallout shelter Storyline: Are you there… over. Please respond… over. It’s the end of the world. And you find yourself locked in a fallout shelter. There are plenty of supplies to last you and your group awhile. But that’s where the good news ends. You discover a problem with the oxygen supply and realize you must escape the shelter in 60 minutes. Luckily there are clues to help you make it out before you and your group are…over. Recommended for ages 10 and up. Phones placed in small container but kept in room with us. First impression-wow. Aesthetically they nailed it. Looks like a fallout shelter. Very scarce clues. Nothing too high tech or not seen in other rooms. Environment got a little too warm. Ended up using all three clues but we again had no control over which hint to ask. They provided very cryptic. We ended up asking for 2 additional clues for added time of 6 minutes total. We completed and got out with time to spare but our end time was 61:32 with penalty time added. This was expert level but was very frustrating. We made some rookie mistakes. The two guys doing the room with us were equally frustrated and didn’t like the room. Kids would love this room. Plenty of space. Hard room but not better than other options in Dallas like Escape HQ, Escape this or Panic room. Look forward to seeing their other room when opens up.

We were surprised there werent any reviews for this place until we learned that it had only been open for about two months. :) Our experience with 11th Hour Escape was fantastic. We were there to celebrate birthdays (with a party of 5) and were paired with another party of 5 celebrating a birthday. Were fairly introverted people, so werent sure how that was going to work, but it was great -- everyone was super nice and excited about the game. I think, regardless of who you work with, if you have a time limit and a set of goals (and the right mindset), you can successfully team up with anyone! I dont know exact ages between our two parties, but I can guess we had a group of 10 with ages ranging from 8 to 40+, and everyone had a good time (although the youngest was a little nervous at first). The staff at 11th Hour Escape were helpful, kind, and silly-- we loved working with them! They seemed like great people. Cant wait for them to open up another room for us to explore. The experience itself seemed slightly less immersive than another escape room weve participated in, but no less engaging. There were creative puzzles, and I really like the idea of a leveled game (easy, medium, hard). I work in education so I totally appreciate their differentiated approach to providing this awesome experience for everyone! Highly recommend you check it out! Its a little tricky to find it; but worth the search.

Came with a competitive group of friends and none of us have done an escape room so naturally we went with Medium. We were SO close to escaping! Great introduction with simple guidelines by Bruce and Darcy at the beginning. Ridiculously fun and entertaining. We were still analyzing for hours after we left. Challenging yet satisfying even though we didnt make it out within the hour. Definitely for those who enjoy puzzles, brain teasers, and just straight up fun. Dont wait, get a group out and give it a try!

We went for a birthday party, and we had a blast! We chose the medium difficulty, and while it was pretty hard, we were still able to solve it. The atmosphere of the room was really good, and overall it was an amazing experience. We will definitely be coming back here again.

Didnt know what to expect when we took the entire family here. We absolutely loved it. This was such a great team event for a family or company event. Very challenging mind blowing time that makes you really tap into your brain and work together.

Great puzzle room. You can select the difficulty. If you are new to puzzle rooms, go low. If you have a strategy, pick hard! Friendly staff, good culminated puzzles (on medium).

Clever puzzles, good challenges, but not impossible. 5 of us completed a 50% success rate room in 44 minutes.
