• This place was probably one of the most fun escape the rooms I have done. The staff was super friendly and nothing but helpful. The puzzles are definitely something you need to think about hard and wont just come to you. The staff had done a great job at making the games and different parts of the room challenging but still a fun night! The group I was with had escaped the room with just enough time! Will definitely go back

• thought id try it out
  
  I have also tried Escape the Room Philadelphia in Center City and actually think this may be more fun with more clues. Despite the location of the warehouse, i found this adventure to be a bit more exciting, with a bigger room, and a boatload of more clues. instructors were nice and the group was awesome.

• This was the first room escape I'd ever done and I didn't really know what to expect. I can't believe how much I loved it! We were in a room with 4 people I knew and 5 that I didn't so I was a bit leary of relying on strangers to help us escape but there wasn't a single person who didn't find some clue or help work to get us out. We escaped with only 4 seconds to spare and it was a crazy rush! We've since become obsessed with these things and have done all of the ones available in Philly, and also have driven out to NJ to try one. If you're on the fence, give it a go; it's worth every penny!

• I've been hearing all about "Escape the Room" and we decided to book a date and drove out to South Philly to Trapped PHL. The location has free street parking, but there should be much more signage for customers because its inside a large warehouse that also holds Fright Factory and Adventure Mini Golf... the signs outside the building don't even mentioned TrappedPHL. Our group arrived early (their website suggests being 30 minutes early which is excessive) and still had to wait a bit after our time slot. We checked in on Facebook to receive a free clue. They have a limited amount of snacks and drinks available for purchase.
  
  Our group of 10 was taken back to one of the rooms and led blindfolded one-by-one into the room and chained to a different spot. One of the clues gave us the combination to unchain ourselves, other clues led to unlocking drawers, locker, cabinets, etc. There is a locked box hanging from the ceiling suspended by 3 cables that are locked as well. Clues are hidden all around the room and a supervisor has a computer screen to communicate with you, but you can only ask 3 questions and 60 minutes to escape the room. We went around Halloween, but this is not a scary activity its more like a thriller and they do play music that sounds like a track from a horror movie. My only complaint was that some of our props were broken and it made it impossible to solve a few clues. Luckily we guessed and got lucky with some combinations and set a record for escaping the room in 34 minutes! It was a fun time, but it is an ideal activity to do with friends instead of strangers and the clues are more challenging so I can see how many people don't solve it (which at times can be frustrating). They let you take your own picture at the end (phew I hate paying for souvenir photos).
