I went with some friends this weekend and had a blast! Escape room was great, and Maiya was amazing and super helpful! Definitely on my list to come back to and try other rooms.

Thank you for the wonderful 5-star review! We're thrilled to hear you and your friends had such a great time with us. Maiya is indeed fantastic, and we'll make sure to pass along your kind words to her. We look forward to seeing you back to tackle our other rooms soon!
I always wanted to do a Home Alone themed escape room. Quandary was so amazing with their puzzles, it made it feel like I was part of the movies as Kevin. The puzzles were so interactive and they related so much to the movie. Camille was an amazing game master and such an amazing person. She was on top of all the clues, was very kind, and very welcoming.

Thanks so much for your kind words about our Left at Home room! We're thrilled you felt like you were stepping into the shoes of our totally original character, Cal McKevinister (any resemblance to certain mischievous home defenders is purely coincidental)! Our team works hard on making those puzzles come alive through our legally distinct but spiritually familiar experience. I'll be sure to pass your compliments to Camille - she's a fantastic game master and will be delighted to hear she helped make your experience special.
Hope to see you back to try our other rooms soon!

Brought my 9 year old to do an escape room with his friends and it was awesome! The puzzles were tough and so creative and the staff was really into it and made the experience very special for us. We loved figuring it out and had so much fun! Definitely recommend for a kids or adult birthday party or special event.

It was a lot of fun. Very creative. Some of their stuff was a little damaged but not enough to lose a star. I will be returning for another room.

Our group tried all three rooms and loved all of them!! The puzzles were certainly challenging, and some were unlike anything we’d ever seen in other escape rooms. We spent all night talking about our favorite puzzles and references to the room themes. Best escape rooms we’ve ever done - try all three, you’ll love them!

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review. We're thrilled you enjoyed all three rooms and noticed the unique puzzles we've designed. Comments like yours make all our hard work worthwhile!
We really enjoyed the Lab of the Lost room. Friendly reception crew and host, Angela. The puzzles were logical and fun to do. Like the at it’s a non-chain Escape Room. Would recommend and go back for sure.

We went for our 13 year old's birthday and all had so much fun! The puzzles were challenging but interesting and accessible for our whole family (10-44). We really felt welcomed and supported by the Escape Support Team. It was a great experience and we'll definitely return. (it helped that we survived)

It's exactly what we aim for - challenging but accessible puzzles that everyone can enjoy together. And congratulations on surviving! Hope to see you back for another adventure soon.
We hosted my daughter’s birthday party here and really appreciated the hospitality and flexibility of the staff. They supported the kids just enough to have a positive experience but still feel challenged. The kids had a blast!!

Thank you so much for taking the time to share your feedback. We're thrilled to hear that your daughter and her friends had such a great time! Our game masters work hard to provide just the right level of guidance, so it's wonderful to know that came through in your experience.
Our family did the Left at Home room over Thanksgiving, and we had a blast! The room is thoughtfully planned with lots of fun nods to the inspirational movie. We had six people, ages 8 to 45, and all were able to pitch in. And Cam is a great game master. Well done!!

We celebrated my daughter's 10th birthday. Quest (based on "Home Alone") was very exciting, and the venue was comfortable. Children were happy. Overall, prefect organization!

This place is awesome!!! Great rooms, great vibe, great people! I did my proposal here, and everyone one was so helpful in getting the whole thing set up. (And yes, she said yes).

Wishing you and your fiancée all the best with your wedding and beyond, and we hope to see you both back soon for more fun!
Escape the 90s was so nostalgic and fun! Definitely made me miss my childhood! Val was amazing - super nice and super helpful.

We are so glad you thought Escape the 90s was all that and a bag of chips! I'll be sure to pass along the compliments to our totally tubular game master, Val! Catch you on the flip!

This was my first in-person escape room. I thought I knew what to expect, but it was so much more. My mom brought two of my teenage nephews to town, and I was looking to fill the week with fun activities. The 16yo later named Quandary as his favorite hour of the week (over great meals, a Cubs game, the Willis Tower Skydeck, Millennium Park mini-golf and a ton of other activities). I highly recommend!

Thank you for the fantastic review! We're delighted to hear that Quandary stood out among such great activities. Knowing your 16-year-old named us his favorite is a huge honor. We can't wait to welcome you and your family back for more thrilling adventures!
The Quandary had a great party room to host a small group of 11 year olds for a birthday celebration. It was a FANTASTIC experience, with very enthusiastic staff. Camille is AWESOME!!!!!! (She gets 10 stars out of 5 as a hostess) They did everything they could to make the experience great for us, with minimum hassle. Worth every dime, and a really great time!

We're thrilled to hear that your group had a fantastic time in our party room celebrating a special birthday! Thank you for your kind words and for recognizing Camille's enthusiasm; she'll be over the moon with your praise. We're so grateful for your support and hope to host you again soon for another great experience at The Quandary Escape Rooms.
I had the chance this week to experience the Quandary Escape Rooms in Chicago, near Wrigley. What a fun place! We did the Dinosaur Room and we're intrigued by all the twists and turns you encounter. Would recommend it for a date night, team building activity or a group event. Great friendly staff, superb game master, and an awesome time! Well worth it, I highly recommend it.
