Additional Information

Our Chicago location is right off of the famed Michigan Ave next to countless entertainment and dining options, perfect for pairing an escape room with dinner and post-game drinks for a full night out in Chicago.

They’re all within walking distance of our Chicago location!

The Escape Game Chicago features 5 unique themes including our cosmic adventure, Mission: Mars and our most difficult escape room, Prison Break. Every family-friendly escape game can hold up to 8 players, includes multiple rooms, and is a highly immersive experience.

These adventures offer a one-of-a-kind premium experience. Follow clues and solve puzzles to complete your mission together. We offer the best escape rooms and the fastest customer support. Come see why our escape rooms win awards.

  • Games are recommended for ages 13 and up. Younger players are allowed, but some of the game content may be too difficult for them. An adult, 18 or older, must participate with anyone that is 14 and under. Also, any participants under the age of 18 will need an adult to sign their waiver.
  • You will be in a room with a locked door, but every door is equipped with an exit button. Should you feel the need to leave the room, you are welcome to do so at any time.
  • Each game is designed for one hour of intense fun! Plan to spend 15 minutes prior to each game preparing and briefing for your mission, and 15 minutes after each game to debrief and take photos.
  • The Escape Game experiences are very different from what you typically see in other escape rooms. These games aren’t scary or dark. They are exciting, adventurous, and something all guests can enjoy.
  • Unless you book all the spots in a game, our games have the potential to be shared experiences, which means others could book into your game and join your team.
