    Review of: Escape Manor - Hintonburg
    Excellent experience
    Excellent experience, highly recommended!
    Arrival experience was impeccable, friendly staff and the very good service and support. We loved the Recruit, we could not escape it but will return for sure.

    Review of: Jigsaw Escape Rooms
    Amazing
    our first time going and we did their new room "Pirates Code" the room was very nice looking and really sets the mood and matchs the theme. we were surprised when we walked into the room "WOW... this is so cool" just being in the room is an experience by itself, they must have spent a lot of time making it. its one of the harder rooms and with just the two us we almost made it out, the puzzles are really well made but not imposible we had so much fun and will for sure go again to try out the other rooms.

    Review of: Escape Manor - Queen Street
    Post covid
    Not sure how the experience was modified due to covid. From previous reviews it seemed there would have been someone in the room with us.. Regardless that wasnt the case. We still had a lot of fun. Not a big fan of the 45 mins time. We could have used another 5 mins but thats specific to us.
    Im giving it 5 stars cause the staff was friendly and engaging.
    They made the visit notable. Thank you !

    Review of: Room Escape Ottawa
    Deliverance was great fun!
    Deliverance was a fantastic room. There was enough to keep everyone busy and doing something, and unlike other rooms, this one takes up two levels. I loved the wide range of way to solve puzzles, and the storyline was a great way to keep things tied together. They even threw in a free T-shirt for me because it was my birthday!

    Review of: Diefenbunker: Canada's Cold War Museum
    This is cool
    This is a neat place if you are interested in Cold War era history. So much cool stuff in here and as a techie vintage technology. The displays are informative. We did self guided and I kind of wish I had done a guided tour.

    Review of: Escape Manor Byward Market
    Didn’t escape, but completed 3 very cool escape rooms
    Our group of 3 did all of the escape rooms over 3 days and enjoyed each one! We also took advantage of the 25% discount if you booked another escape at their kiosk, which was nice! Unfortunately we didn’t successfully escape any of them, but the staff did a great job of hosting each experience and boosting our morale at the end of each one haha. (Thanks, Corey!)

    The first one we did was The Magician’s Studio, which turned out to be our least favourite. It was a tricky room, but it had some cool puzzles to solve! Ultimately it came down to lacking time and hands to work on things. There wasn’t as large of a variety of locks so we kept having to try the same combinations on different locks. We did get stuck a couple of times so although we were sort of close (not quite) this one was not as successful of an escape as we’d hoped to have going in!

    The second one we did was The Boudoir, in an attempt to redeem ourselves (we didn’t). The theme of the room was very fun and our host Finn was really nice and helpful! We weren’t quite on top of our game in this one and missed small but important things which wasted our time. We were pretty close to the end though; if we had more time or worked faster we could’ve made it! It was interesting doing the puzzles in this one, they were varied and fun to solve. :)

    The last one we did was The Parlour, which was our most successful room out of them all, even if we didn’t actually escape. We had only very slightly messed up the final puzzle which would have led us out the room when the timer went off. But it was fun! The puzzles all fit in very well with the theme of the room, and they were interesting to solve. We only really got held up by two of the puzzles, but our host Elizabeth and the other staff were very helpful in their hints. We wish we had made it out of the room in time but it was a fun experience nonetheless!

    Overall I’m glad we did these rooms! We’re kind of disappointed having three near-escapes and none fully a success but it was a fun time for each of us, and I’d definitely recommend doing any of these rooms with friends or family! (The more people, the better.)

    Review of: Lockdown - Ogilvie
    Fun Escape!
    I had the opportunity to be one of the first lucky ones test out the newly released Hockey Fans Unite escape room at Lockdown. The puzzles are fun yet challenging. The room itself is very visually appealing. Definitely recommended!

    Family Escape Room Experience
    What a fun experience!! We’re a family of seven with kids 15, 14, 12, 10 and 8. We did the Vampire room and although we didn’t make it out in time we had a blast.

    NO ESCAPE BUT FUN REGARDLESS
    Very friendly and helpful staff upon arrival and during escape room experience. No food available due to Christmas rush.

    Review of: Claustrophobia
    Escape Manor Hintonburg
    We did the Gallery. It's a good room. I haven't done their other rooms here yet though.

    If you're looking for updated reviews check out Escape Manor Hintonburg. Escape Manor purchased Claustrophobia awhile ago and upgraded it. I've also heard they will be doing the same thing with Mystery Motel in the Market. That will make four locations in the Ottawa area for the company.

    Well adapted for adults! Candy and Space were two extraordinary rooms filled with vibrant decors and thrilling challenges! Meagan and Hannah made the experience enjoyable and memorable. I highly recommend visiting the location. It's great for all ages.

    Review of: Amnesia Escape Games
    The Disenchanted Forest is very kind to neophytes.
    We were the only booking on Tuesday evening so the attendant could focus on us. We were told that usually she could give two clues but when we asked for more, she was quick to help. The room is lovely with interesting effects. There were a few red herrings that kept me occupied until our charming helper came in to point us in another direction. I really enjoyed the time we spent there. It was a challenge to us and would also be a challenge to more experienced escape room aficionados.
