Great Escape SC - Escape Room

It was a pretty fun experience. At the time we went, there was only one room to do but I think that's because they had just opened up after the shutdown. The workers (or owners) were really nice and were generous with clues towards the end. The only things I wish they would change are some of the locks that they already know are physically difficult to open even if you have the right combination.

Great Escape was what I expected from an escape room; fun and challenging. In this day and climate, with COVID-19, it's one of the safer activities to do, and precautionary measures were taken by staff to ensure that. Only issue we had was not being able to open one of the locks with the correct combination. This wasted just enough time that didn't escape in time. But aside from that the staff was great, the experience was great, and I would visit again.

My son chose to do an escape room for the first time for his birthday...and I must say it was very fun...good times with family. Really made us think together as a team! Friendly staff!

Challenging and fun. 2nd escape room I've visited. Most of the puzzles were based on solving combination locks to advance. Different than a previous one which had hidden movements and magnetic activations. Decorated to theme.i would give it a try if you are within a 45 minute drive. Plenty of nearby restaurants to make an afternoon or evening of it.

My experience was so bad that I felt compelled to write my first-ever internet review. I don't know the name of the young woman who was on staff that day, but she made it abundantly clear that she wanted us out of there as soon as possible so she could enjoy her Saturday away from work.nnThe room had very little atmosphere and we received no background or briefing. If this had been my first escape room experience, I would have been completely lost. As it was, I was in a group that has done many rooms in multiple locations and we all agreed this was the worst we had done. We were told that a large locked cabinet was from a previous room, so we just need to ignore it. A locked door was broken, so when we were only about 10% done solving the clue to open it, the staff member opened it for us, which completely deflated the enjoyment of all of us.nnWe finished in 27 minutes and used no clues - way too easy. On top of the door issue above, there were also broken drawers which made any locks useless, and crucial information in writing so feint it almost couldn't be seen, let alone read.nnThere are too many good rooms in the Midlands and surrounding areas to waste your time and money on this place. I'd give less than one star if possible.
