One of my husband's friends came up for a visit recently, and we decided to do some escape rooms while he was here. My favorite escape room, (honestly, the only one I have been to) is Adventures in Time and Space in Champaign-Urbana. Don't worry, there are no real spoilers.
The first room we did was a fantasy adventure. We had to solve a variety of puzzles in order to acquire a magic wand and a book of spells with which to defeat the wizard. We finished with less than 2 minutes left.
The second escape room was the one that I was most excited about. It was a horror game with a creepy cabin in the woods. I pretty much volunteered to explore everything first and got to watch my husband put on torn up clown costume and perform a sacred ritual to purify the cabin and save the world. It was pretty amazing.
I absolutely love Adventures in Time in Space because their rooms are challenging, but not difficult. The puzzles make sense and the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful.
