Ghostly Gallion was our first ever escape room. My sister and our spouses went and we had so much fun! Very cool room, the puzzles were challenging and interesting! Cool surprises with the puzzles. The staff was so friendly and we will be going back for other rooms in the future.

Unbelievable fun! Hourglass's escape rooms are super difficult, challenging, and entertaining. Will definitely be coming back for the Evil Dead room!

Absolutely A+ Puzzle Room - the clues, timing, professionalism were all on point. It was a super realistic room with fantastic ambience, great characters, and varied and challenging puzzles. Our "Ensign," Sara, kept her cool and even the secondary clues were still puzzles to keep us guessing. The theme was evident in every detail and it's clear that Hourglass Escapes goes the extra mile to make it an amazing experience. I would definitely go back, and I can't wait to try their other puzzle room.

We played the Ghostly Galleon with only 3 ppl and it was super fun and very challenging. Lots of thought went in to the puzzles and the sequencing. Great customer service too - our "Ensign" was great, and gave use great hints in exchange for doubloons.

Can't wait to return! Get your group together and book a room today!

I just did the Ghostly Galleon with my sixth grade daughter and her friend. They had a blast! The production values were very high and the puzzles were of a great quality and quantity. The staff was very helpful, and I can't wait for them tk open their next room!

My friends and I just finished Tales of the Ghostly Galleon and it was an absolute blast! The puzzles were challenging but never got frustrating. Every time we solved a puzzle it felt like we earned it. Also, pirates, ghosts, and wearable pirate hats?! How can you ARRRRgue with that?!

We did a team building event at Hourglass Escapes and loved both the rooms, Mystery at Innsmouth and The Ghostly Galleon. The team at Hourglass is friendly and made our corporate event a smash hit.

We had a team of four people for the Ghostly Galleon. The room and props were nice, the actor in the room with us did a great job, the puzzles were challenging, but fun and very well thought out.

It was interesting doing a puzzle that didn’t involve the room, we kept forgetting and looking around the room for clues.

Will definitely be back if we can make time for the pharaoh room! Would recommend to a friend

Visited today with a group of friends. This was the second time we have done an escape room with Hourglass escapes. I’ve done several escape rooms in Seattle and Hourglass definitely has the best! The props and design quality are top notch! Even if you’re not able to solve, you’ll definitely have a good time.

I attended Hourglass Escapes for a team-building event for work and my team tried the "Tales of the Ghostly Galleon" room. This was my first time trying an escape room. The sets and props made the whole atmosphere and experience really immersive. We all had a really great time solving the mystery from the very beginning intro video to the conclusion of the day. I highly recommend trying this out and I intend on returning at some point to try out "Rise of the Mad Pharoah."

We had a group of 8 people, all young adults go through the Ghostly Galleon. It was a fun challenge. I was a great time, I would recommend it for any group looking to have fun and challenge themselves!

My friends and I bought tickets for Tales of the Ghostly Galleon. I was nervous to attend as I’ve never been to an escape room before but I must tell you I had an amazing time!

The staff was so welcoming and supportive. They truly are invested in the themes that they created. Their excitement is evident! They helped our group get into character and before I knew it we were off to solve a mystery.

We had an amazing time! Don’t miss out the opportunity to solve mysteries with Hourglass Escapes!

This was my first time at an escape room. It was an amazing experience! I felt the challenge was just right for eight of us and combined some individual "sleuthing" along with teamwork. There were enough activities that we could spread out and not be on top of each other. The challenges were at an appropriate level to require focus and concentration without being impossible. We really enjoyed it!

The ghostly galleon room was so fun! Creative puzzles, really well decorated, and the staff were great with the hints There was 3 of us— I feel like more than 5 people in this room would be too crowded and you would miss puzzles

- cute and fun room with pretty simple puzzles which makes it great for newbies

- I love how compact and transportable it is! There was a sense of rhyme and reason in this one compared to Mad Pharaoh which made it much smoother.

- please fix some of the locks/keys/clues, minor issues but it could have been perfect otherwise.

- the story was really fun and I enjoyed the mechanics of all of the puzzles.

- a little more table space might be helpful as well to sort through all the items

We had a great Friday afternoon at Hourglass Escapes where we spent an hour in the Ghastly Galleon puzzle room. Our host or Ensign, I forgot his name but he was a young man with glasses, flamboyant and enthusiastic about getting us prepared. This was everybody's first time doing an escape room.

The atmosphere of the room was set up nicely. Ambiance was dim but not completely dark, enough for those with bad vision, like myself, to still find clues in the room. Our host was helpful in that he threw a random hint (not an answer) if we were close to solving a specific puzzle.

Overall we had a great time. We did this as a work/team building exercise so we really got to see how different folks functioned during a time of distress. We were a little slow at first as we didn't have roles and were just all over the place. As time progressed we clearly saw who had specific traits solving different things. Some we naturally good at deciphering and analyzing words, notes, and diaries while others were good at figuring out numbers, reading maps, and de-coding all the locks.

Glad we worked together and found out who that ghostly banshee was!
