Minneapolis Date Night

The escape room was so fun! It was easy to book and we're inspired to go again.

It was VERY different, I did it once, it was fun. There was a LOT of hype, a hefty price tag, and lengthy pre-flight prep including goggles, earplugs, full zippered suit, and helmet. But I’d save your money and go on a roller coaster. It just wasn’t worth all that money, hype, and self-promotion for two 60-second turns at something that was just “very different”. And, during the second 60-second trip I wasted over 20 bucks going up 14 feet and back down a couple of times, which was less fun than playing with learning to hover and turn without being held in position as much by the instructor. NO danger, NO rush of adrenaline, NO g-forces, NO sensation of free-fall. It’s loud, challenging to hover and turn in the middle of the Bernoulli current, fun when you start to learn how small hand movements make you rotate one way then the other, forward and back. If you were crazy-rich and could afford to do this all the time, or planned to go skydiving for real and could afford to spend a fortune to learn tricks on your real sky dive, or could afford to take this up as your competitive expensive-but-safe sport, then this may be for you. Yes, I had fun and smiled and waved. But the high price tag and hype versus ROI were super off-putting. It’s fun to do once, but really the instructor held onto you the whole time so you had very little control when you watch the video at the end. (Make sure you bring someone to video you: they’ll happily sell you theirs, of both 60-second “flights”, with only a few highly logo-covered, blurry seconds of preview for a fortune. I prefer roller coasters, zip lining, the Tilt-A-Whirl, rock climbing, caving…. MUCH less hype, longer periods of excitement, and more-reasonable pricing. And maybe g-forces and a little real danger and skill required, too. LOL But, that’s me. It WAS really good fun, both 60-seconds of time in the tube. If it were half the cost, I still probably wouldn’t do it again, though, the hype was just tacky and not comparable to the micro-experiences.

Super fun! The high dive was sweet!

It was amazing!! Had a lot of fun and the instructors are so much fun!!

It was an amazing time. My girlfriend and I truly enjoyed ourselves, and came incredibly close to actually beating the room, even being the hardest room in their arsenal. Now she can’t stop talking about it and is looking forward to going back for more , and I can’t blame her!
