The 11 best escape rooms in Sacramento

“Very awesome set design although very difficult for our small family only got to about 40% complete. Jordan improved our experience and knew to avoid giving us a hint after not finishing…. so we can try again! Thank you again for a memorable experience Enchambered staff, solid room! Update: went the next day and enjoyed every minute and finished with 14 minutes to spare without hints! Shelby was so gracious and welcoming loved having her as our game master.”

“Very well done but complicated room. Definitely needs the 3 person minimum. And they're not kidding about the room getting loud. If you're noise sensitive, take them up on their offer to turn the volume down.”

“Would definitely recommend this one with any small family it was exciting and the kids enjoyed the game. Beck was great in handling the flow and provided efficient support. Can’t wait to try the last room at Enchambered. Extra shout out to Remy for his exceptionally warm reception on a busy day.”

“I absolutely loved this room. This is a perfect room if you’re wondering what an escape is like. All of the puzzles are politely intuitive, and there’s always something to do so you’re never sitting around. This is a must do room if you’re ever wanting to do an escape room. Gabriel was super nice, and hilarious.”

“We enjoyed this escape room and the puzzles within it. Our host was very friendly. There was some technical glitches with the very last puzzle and we would have escaped a lot sooner if it had been working properly.”

“It's a tough call, but I think this was my favorite room at Exit Strategy. I didn't love the guidebook -- I prefer figuring out things more organically -- and suspect that players wanting a bigger challenge could mostly ignore it. There were two moments in the room that I wasn't quite expecting but found delightful. Like all Exit Strategy games, they aim for a 100% success rate, so this is not a difficult room, especially for enthusiasts. It's still well worth playing. That's not to say the game was perfect - there was a bit of a tech hiccup with a magical artifact. Talking to the GM afterwards, it's something they're aware of but seems difficult to fix.”

“If you’re up for a good friendly challenge then this a fun one to try out. I really enjoyed the player to game interactions that happened throughout the entire experience. Our GM did an excellent job assigning us the correct positions in the game. This game can get a bit loud and competitive at times but that’s because we were all trying to win.”

“Review: Hide and Squeak, A Squirrel’s Adventure – Exit Strategy Escape Rooms We had an absolute blast playing Hide and Squeak, A Squirrel’s Adventure at Exit Strategy Escape Rooms! This room was quirky, fun, and full of clever surprises. It’s the perfect choice for families or anyone looking for a lighthearted and imaginative escape experience. The puzzles were entertaining and just the right level of challenge for kids, while still keeping the adults engaged. The theme was adorable, and the attention to detail really brought the squirrel’s world to life. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the whole experience even better. Highly recommend for a fun day out with the little ones—or if you’re just a kid at heart!”

“Like all rooms at Exit Strategy, this game seemed super smooth and polished, which I really appreciate. It was also on the easy side (as are all their games), but I'm OK with not being their target difficulty and appreciate them thinking so much about a positive player experience. This was one of the best split start rooms I've ever played, and this is a big reason I rated this room highly. My nightmare for split starts is when one side is sitting around for extended periods with nothing to do, waiting for the other side to finish their backlog of puzzles or finally find the key they've been overlooking since the beginning. The Butcher's Torture Chamber did a brilliant job avoiding this -- we were constantly doing things and passing information back and forth, which is IMHO the strength and point of a split start. The set was more a Halloween level of spooky/gruesome rather than really going for creepy, so it's (relatively) family friendly.”
