We had a great time... The puzzles are amazing... The attendee (Hamza) was very polite and nice. Provided us with detailed instructions on how to play the game. It was a great experience. Everyone had an amazing time. I definitely recommend it if you're looking to have fun with your friends or it will be good for coworkers to get to know each other.
7/26/2025 at 10:30pm was our booking time. Considering it being a late time the staff was full of energy and positive. I had a great experience and will definitely be coming back to do a few more. The insidious room was the first room I did and it had a great atmosphere. You can feel the theme.
Second time here and it was absolutely incredible. Of course the room was awesome but Cindy was such a pleasure. You can tell what a hard, dedicated worker she is and that she truly enjoys what she does. At one point, one of the locks had a little malfunction, she noticed the struggle and asked if we wanted help. She paused our game and resolved the issue swiftly, all while being courteous and light hearted. Panic is extended lucky to have Cindy as an employee. What an amazing asset she is.
Jun was a great game host and hope to have her again soon! We completed the Insidious room and were pleasantly surprised at how immersive it was! Definitely for those who love horror. We ended up also completing the black mirror room right after as it was 20% off for same day booking and this was also very fun to do! It’s nice to see rooms from the same place have different puzzle styles. Can’t wait to go back!
We had such a thrilling time at the Insidious escape room! The atmosphere was creepy in the best way, and the puzzles were exciting and challenging—even though we didn’t make it out, we had a blast trying. The scares were so well done and definitely kept us on our toes! The only downside was our game host, Cindy, who was quite rude during the experience, which put a bit of a damper on the fun. Otherwise, the room itself was amazing and worth checking out if you love a good scare!
