Fantastic escape room! My wife, daughter (age 11) and I have done over 40 escape rooms and this location ranks in the top 5! Very creative rooms and puzzles that makes sense and flow from one to the next and with a solid story connecting them all. We did the submarine room, loved it so much that we ended up doing the Diner room as well. Highly recommended for both new and experienced groups!

Failed to escape the submarine but still had fun

One of the best escape rooms in Asheville. The room put immersed you in the story and made the puzzles that much more fun to solve. Our party was fairly large (I usually just do these with 4 people), but most everyone had a job to do with this room. This one is highly recommended for those who want a decently scary atmosphere added to their escape experience.

Incredible. Attention to detail and ambience of the room was on point. Puzzles were difficult but intuitive. I was legitimately scared in the Submarine room which was awesome. My group has done many, many escape rooms across the country and this is hands down the best room we've been to. Guides were friendly and so helpful! Thanks for the great experience!

My team and I did the Submarine room and loved it. The puzzles were challenging and well put together. I have done more than a dozen escape rooms and this one is definitely towards the top of my list. My only complaint is that we didn't have the time to do them all!

Abandon Submarine was so fun, and the owners are very friendly!
