The Great Escape Room Akron

We had the most wonderful experience at the great escape room in Akron. Our students had the best time trying to figure out all the clues In the game room. Chantel was wonderful to have help us with hints. We paid using a purchase order and it was so easy to work with the staff there. I recommended it to my son and other people as well because the experience was so wonderful and the escape room itself was so fun and the clues were so unique. I recommend this to anybody would like to have a fun afternoon or evening with friends.

My group of 5 adults ages 27-61 did the Presidential Bunker escape room this past weekend and had an absolute blast! This room is marketed as “puzzle heavy” as opposed to “scavenger heavy” and ended up being exactly what we were looking for. Three of us had previously done a different escape room; two were first-timers. But all of us were able to participate and solved at least one puzzle so it felt like we all contributed. Personally, I think 5 was a great number - maybe could push up to 6. More than that may leave folks feeling left out, but I could be wrong. This room does not have an in-room host to assist which was fine with us; if you need help or want to ask for a clue you wave your arms or ask for a hint out loud using the camera/pa system. I think typically a worker then responds via the PA system, but it wasn’t working during our escape so she would just pop her head in with a hint. We only needed two and both were helpful without explicitly telling us what to do. In the end, a solid difficulty level/challenge that made us feel a sense of accomplishment when we escape with a handful of minutes left. Room was clean and felt well maintained. Thanks Great Escape Akron!

Our family had a GREAT time at the Escape Room. It will have you thinking in circles, stumped, and then excited when a code is cracked 😄 They even provided some small toys to help keep our kids entertained while we worked the puzzles. It was challenging and fun, can't wait to go back!

This was our first time doing an escape room and the experience was great! We did the presidents Bunker and the puzzles were definitely challenging and it’s a great team building exercise. The staff were AMAZING. They even cooperated and helped my fiancé organize a marriage proposal there! I totally recommend this Escape room!
