spooky atmosphere with super fun adventurous puzzles! My friends and me absolutely enjoyed going through the lovely decorative rooms and figuring out what exactly we needed! With amazing staff that made everyone feel so welcomed.

Wow, this was so fun, we had the best time celebrating my daughter’s birthday with the family and we made it out with a lot of coaching from squawker! If you want a really fun , piratey experience , go to Escape Hour. We had a blast!Thanks to our game master Ryder- it was super fun!

We had such a great time with this escape room! It was SO incredibly themed and truly fully immersive. The puzzles were the perfect difficulty, not too easy but not too hard. And the way the Gamemaster gave us hints was pretty cool too! Overall we had an amazing time and will absolutely be back to try their other room! 10/10 would recommend, you should definitely try it!

We had such an amazing time! This was a day for our work team and our plus ones to have some fun and down time off of work. This was probably one of the most detailed, involved and FUN escape room I've ever done. All 8 of us worked really hard and we made it out with 18 seconds to spare! I would highly recommend Escape Hour - any and all rooms. The staff is so welcoming, kind, fun and helpful, and the rooms are really well planned and thought out. Highly recommend! 10/10!!

This was my second ever escape room. First one I did in was in Texas and was a one room thing and we did not solve that one.
For this we went in a group with 4 couples and had a blast! It was progressive, where you progressed forward into opening more rooms. We all were able to be apart of solving different problems. Plenty to do for 8+ people. With little escape room experience we were able to figure out what kinds of things to look for for solutions. The staff were wonderful, we all were running a few mins late to our reservation but they were very kind and did their best to accommodate us. The staff were enthusiastic in telling the story and encouraging us.
Definitely recommend for a first time escaper. We did successfully escape in time despite starting late. :)

Having gone through all but one of their rooms, I’m clearly an Escape Hour fan.
Whether it be at their Point Ruston or Gig Harbor location, their staff, puzzles, and entire experience is inevitably amazing!
I love that its puzzles have different levels (climbing, crawling, sliding), which I haven’t seen elsewhere.
I appreciate that the puzzles require you to work WITH your teammates in order to solve them.
And, of course, I love that the themes are integral to the whole game rather than tossed in as an afterthought (and that the game masters fully embody the theme’s characters as well).
Escape Hour is THE best escape room venue that I’ve been to — and I’ve been to many across the country!

This was our (my husband and I) first time in an escape room so I really didn't know what to expect. We had so much fun and the 70 minutes went by SO FAST! We were told we made it 85% of the way. We even bought the passports so we could try again at 50% off!

This is easily the best immersive experience in an escape room! The story was great, our game master got us pumped up, and we had so much fun! We beat the time with less than two minutes to go and it was so satisfying. The puzzles are challenging but manageable (especially with the help of some hints) and we loved how interactive it all was. Will go again to try the other rooms in the locations we can get to!

The immersion throughout was amazing. From the person who met us and got us started to the very end we were never taken out of the fantasy. The puzzles were challenging but not impossible, and definitely not linear. There were times that we weren't sure if we were going to make but did just in time. The clues were in character and puzzles in themselves.

Fun escape adventure experience! This was our first ever escape room outing, and it was lots of fun. Friendly, fun staff. Satisfying puzzles that were challenging to get all done in the time limit, but we managed with seconds to spare!
