What is an escape room?
An escape room is an interactive, live-action game set in an immersive themed space. Your group of 2–10 works together to find clues, solve puzzles and crack codes to complete a mission before the 60-minute clock runs out. No experience needed just teamwork and curiosity.
Every game at Ultimate Xscape is private (you’ll never play with strangers), built by hand on-site, and guided by a friendly Game Host. And don’t worry you’re never actually locked in.

Not sure which to play? Quest for the Realm is a great first escape; Tesla’s Legacy turns up the difficulty a notch. Both work for 2–10 players — and remember, every booking is private.

How it works
Private rooms, simple booking
Reserve online with a $50 deposit to lock in your game, date and time. Your room is yours alone — you’ll never share it with strangers. Bring 2 players or 10; pricing drops per person as your group grows ($35–$49/person). Add guests right up to game time, and adjust your final headcount when you arrive.
Got 11–20 people? Book two rooms at the same start time. For 21+, give us a call and we’ll help you plan.
