FAQS ABOUT ESCAPE THE
ROOM IN Pittsburgh

WHAT IS ESCAPE THE ROOM EXACTLY?

Pittsburgh’s Escape The Room is a game designed to raise the stakes and excitement. Our team’s goal is to make players fall in love with games again. We offer a number of themes, aka escape rooms. Choose between The Agency, The Apartment, The Newsroom, and The Dig. We hope you’ll have so much fun playing one of our escape games that you’ll try your hand at others!

WHAT IS AN 'ESCAPE ROOM'?

What sets escape rooms apart from other real-life gaming experiences is that you are in control of the outcome of the game. Escape rooms are designed to lock players inside a room where they’ll have to race against the clock (60 minutes) to find hidden objects. These will help players uncover secrets and clues to help them gain their freedom. Uncovering the room’s secrets to find an escape is entirely up to the players. Observation skills and logic are great allies to help you escape the room before time runs out!

HOW DO ESCAPE ROOMS WORK?

Well, it requires team work. Players must combine their wits to free themselves before time is up. Do not worry, although players are locked in the room of the choice, you can ask to be let out at anytime if you or someone else feel uncomfortable during the course of the game. Our team put your safety and comfort first.

HOW DO YOU GET OUT OF AN ESCAPE ROOM?

Ah! We won’t give away any clues, otherwise this wouldn’t be fun! It’s up to you and your team to crack our codes in time.

HOW CAN I PLAY ESCAPE THE ROOM?

Gather your friends, family, or coworkers and book the room of your choice. Each room is a unique game with its own atmosphere and story to set the stage for your adventure. Put your puzzle-solving skills to the test and have fun as a group!

You don’t need to buy all the tickets available for a room in order to play. Buy as many tickets as you need and your group will be added into a game with others who bought tickets for that room. It’s a great way to meet new players and hopefully get to know other escape artists!

WHAT IF I ONLY WANT MY GROUP IN AN ESCAPE ROOM?

ALL GAMES ARE OPEN TO THE PUBLIC UNLESS THE PRIVATE GAME OPTION IS PURCHASED. ONCE YOU SELECT THE AMOUNT OF PLAYERS ATTENDING, YOU CAN UPGRADE YOUR GAME TO A PRIVATE EXPERIENCE BY PURCHASING THE REMAINING TICKETS AT A 50% DISCOUNT. IF YOU DID NOT PURCHASE THE PRIVATE OPTION, YOU MAY BE PAIRED WITH OTHER GROUPS DURING YOUR GAME.

IS THERE A PLACE TO PUT OUR COATS OR BELONGINGS?

Yes. Each room has coat racks inside so you can keep your personal things with you.

IS THERE AN AGE LIMIT FOR ANY OF THE ESCAPE ROOMS?

Though all of our puzzles are designed for adult minds, we welcome all ages. However, if any member of your party is 14 years of age or under, there must be at least one adult chaperone to accompany unless you have booked the entire room (though we still encourage having an adult present). If any member of your party is 10 years or under, you must purchase all tickets for a room to ensure it is a private game as a courtesy to our other customers.
