We're an independent, immersive escape room, offering stories that make you feel like you're in a movie. We're conveniently located at the Clark/Belmont intersection in Chicago.

FAQ

Can I bring my child?

Absolutely! Our rooms are kid-friendly, with Left At Home being our most family-friendly room. We recommend players to be aged 10 and up (with adult participation). However, we won't turn away any child.

Can I just drop off my kids to do the room?

Nope, we require adult supervision for children under the age of 18. We ain't yo' baby sitter!

What room should I book?

Not sure which room to book? Take our quiz to find the perfect room for you and your group.

How long is the experience?

Our games have a time limit of 60 minutes. But don't worry, we've only had a few groups lost for all eternity.

Why does a time say Call to Book?

That could mean a couple of things:

1. Sometimes, our staff is "on-call." To keep our employees happy and stress-free, many of our bookings close 1.5 hrs before start time. But there's a chance a staff member might be at the facility, so feel free to call and check if a slot is available.

2. The booking is completely full and you'll need to book for another time.

Do you accept walk-ins?

Most of the time, no. But you can check here to see if we are currently accepting walk-ins

What about parking?

We don't have dedicated parking, but the pay-to-park street parking out front on Clark is almost always available.

Will I be placed with other people?

Nope. All of our rooms are private! You'll always just be with your buddies and pals.

Can I add or subtract players after I book?

Yes! You can subtract players for a refund up to 24 hrs before your booking. You can always add players right up to the time of your booking. Just remember to let us know!

Can I add more players than the max as displayed on the website?

Yes, we do allow up to 2 extra players upon request to make a total of 10 players in Left at Home and Escape the 90s, and 8 in Lab of the Lost. However, be aware that the quality of the rooms may be altered due to playing with more than the recommended players. You may book the max amount of players, and then add the extra players at the time of your booking.

What if I need to cancel or reschedule?

We can cancel your booking for a full refund or reschedule for no fee anytime up until 24 hours before your booking time. We can cancel or reschedule the day of your booking, but it may result in a cancellation or rebooking fee.
