• Some friends and I did the Agency. Definitely a great way to spend an hour on the weekend and we DIDNT EVEN MAKE IT OUT! You need to work together and you all need to use your brainholes.
  
  We are already planning a return trip to try one of the other rooms.

• Our group escaped the Agency game with 8 minutes to spare. It felt tight and intense the whole time. The game was very clever and definitely require major team work to figure out .. I also tried Mission Escape games and thought the original Escape the Room deserved the 5 stars.
  
  I just wish the cost can come down a little as I am reluctant to pay $28 to play another game.

• We came here for the "Agency" game with another couple. This one is meant for 8 people, so there was another family with us who were visiting from England. This was my first experience of playing Escape The Room in person; I and my boyfriend have been playing the game on our phones for a while now.
  
  I won't give away the details of the game itself, but I think it's great for people of all ages. We had kids in our group, us (in our 20s/30s) and people in their 40s. You basically are given a list of tasks in the beginning and you have to complete those and escape the room in an hour. Some of the clues I thought were a bit challenging but the clue master, who greets you out in the front when you come in, will give you clues throughout the game to guide you. They have a camera and a speaker to hear and see what's going on inside and the clue master guides you if the group is stuck or going down the wrong path.
  
  I thought our team worked very well, and we all split up to work at different aspects of the clues and ultimately were able to escape with 2 minutes and 13 seconds remaining.
  
  It is a great way to spend an hour or so, something different that you can do when you are either visiting the city or if you live here. It's also a lot of fun to try with a group of friends or co-workers, definitely a great team building exercise!
  
  Tip: The more you interact and work together as a team the better it is.

• Only 15% of groups escape and I am happy to report that I am apart of that elite group!
  
  We chose "The Agency" and escaped with over 7 mins left but let me tell you, there were times when I was sure we weren't getting out of there. So glad we did though because the way my competitiveness is set up, I would have been a nightmare to be around had we failed lol... The clues were very clever and the entire experience was such a thrill.
  
  I went with 4 friends and there were an additional 2 strangers in our group and we all worked really well together. I totally would do this again! I would have given 5 stars but I wish it was a taaaad bit cheaper or that they offered snacks like some of the other places do.
  
  Totally recommend to grab some friends and try this out.

• I cannot stress enough how much fun Escape the Room is. I really had no idea what to expect, but my two friends who live in NYC had heard great things about it, so when three of us were heading up to the city for a weekend, they booked us for a 9:30am Sunday appointment. Our team was paired with another group of three, so as a full team of eight we tackled The Agency room. I can't really say anything beyond that it is quite challenging and requires you to really use your brain and think outside the box -- so be prepared for ANYTHING.
  
  And...we escaped!! Best feeling ever.
