We have done both Return to Planet Earth and the Cloning Experiment activities (kids 7-12 level). Grown ups and children enjoyed finding the clues, working in teams and scratching their heads when tasks were challenging. You can always ask for help. The game is hard enough that kids feel encouraged finding the answers but not so difficult that is frustrating. Bob was very helpful with the introduction to the room and taking pictures of our clones.

This was my 21st visit to an escape room, and Codebreakers did a decent job with their room "Return to Planet Earth". We had to restart an alien spacecraft and get it back to Earth within the hour, completing puzzles and accomplishing tasks that required teamwork and pattern-recognition. The puzzles were challenging, but once we figured out the patterns, it wasn't terribly difficult. We did our job with 10 minutes to spare, requiring one fairly big hint along the way.

While there were some great elements to this room, there were a few kinks that need to be worked out. Some of the markings on the props are faded and can lead to some confusion over what they are. Also, they need some hint system. When you ask for a hint, your game-master comes into the room to help, which greatly takes away from the experience. Maybe a walkie-talkie?
Overall, this wasn't a bad room. Pros: Puzzles and cost. It's $25 a person which is a fair price. And the puzzles were challenging yet fair. Cons: Hint system and faded props. Simple fixes though, really.
You shouldn't need more than a group of 4 for this room, and Codebreakers is opening up a second room in the Spring. I'll be back.August 30, 2019

Enjoyed a visit to Code Breakers earlier this year while friends were in town and it did not disappoint!

All of the staff was very friendly and the room that we had (Clone Experiment) had a varied set of puzzles that were different from the other escape rooms that we had done around the city. Lots of neat special effects, different ways to interact with the room, and enough for a full team of 8 to keep busy for 45 minutes with little downtime for any member. Looking forward to heading back there soon.August 30, 2019

We took my 7 year old daughter here with friends(7 to 9 year olds) for her birthday and they had a blast! They loved trying to solve the clues and had to work as a team... staff was great and it was a wonderful adventure for the kids!

We did the kids challenge - lots of fun. The challenges are very clever and challenging for the kids (and even the adults). Highly recommended.

This was a fantastic experience. We had been trying to figure out something to do for my sons 16th birthday and decided on Code Breakers. We were not disappointed. The boys loved it. It was something that they had never done before - the puzzles were amazing and the boys were able to Return to Planet Earth. They worked together and loved every moment. I would highly recommend Code Breakers to anyone looking for a challenge and anyone who loves puzzles and codes. They even have a room for younger children ages 7-13. We can not wait for them to open their next room because we will be back!!!!!!!!
