THE ATLANTA ORIGIN STORY<\/h2><\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>
<\/div>

Escape The Room\u2019s three exclusive escape room experiences are filled with secrets and mystery, but we operate with full disclosure when it comes to informing you about who we are and what we do as the original escape room in Atlanta<\/a>. Just don\u2019t expect to have any information handed to you when it comes to making your escape.<\/p>\n<\/div>

WHERE IT ALL BEGAN<\/span><\/h2>\n

Atlanta\u2019s Escape The Room first offered participants a new social gaming opportunity in June 2015. Rated a beta(+) world city, home of the world\u2019s busiest airport since 1998, and the only city in North America destroyed as an act of war, Atlanta is the perfect city to host our escape experience. We know visitors and locals alike will come together in our puzzle escape rooms.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

FUN FACTS<\/span><\/h2>\n

While Escape The Room has locations scattered around the U.S., including New York, Boston, St. Louis, Detroit and Dallas, our Atlanta location may be the most exciting, being located within the historic Macy\u2019s department store building<\/strong>, directly next to the world famous Peachtree Westin Hotel, and in the same building where \u201cBeing Mary Jane\u201d is filmed, we know that we must be doing something right here.<\/span>
\n
\nWe\u2019re also proud of the fact that we\u2019ve had the honor of hosting multiple celebrities, both local and national! Some include: cast members from Dance Moms, rapper Lil Wayne\u2019s daughter Reginae Carter, and bands Young the Giant and Hey Violet. Most of these big names did not make it out in time. Think you and your friends can do better?<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

OUR ESCAPE ROOMS<\/span><\/h2>\n

We have three\u00a0unique escape rooms<\/a>:\u00a0The Rec Room, The Newsroom, and The Apartment.<\/strong>\u00a0Each room has its own setting, secrets, storyline, and escape route. For instance, you\u2019ll have 60 minutes to escape an entire decade in The Rec Room. While the cameras roll behind locked doors in The Newsroom, you\u2019ll act as a newscaster to escape the bad news. See how quickly an ordinary residence can become a claustrophobic, yet perfectly decorated, domicile of doom in The Apartment.<\/span><\/p>\n

Regardless of which room you choose, you\u2019ll have 60 minutes to search for clues and make your escape before time runs out.<\/strong>\u00a0After you\u2019ve successfully triumphed over one challenge, we hope to see you back for the mysteries that await in our other rooms.<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

“Last minute booking for a family of 4 on a rainy day. We choose the Jurassic Escape and boy was it fun! The entire family enjoyed themselves and our 5 and 10 year old children wanted to do the other escape rooms more than they wanted to tour the city!”<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>
