This was my first experience at an escape room. We tried the dream. I had a lot of fun. The puzzles were great and engaging. The staff was excellent and did a great job explaining the story and the rules. I highly recommend Escape Room KC

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with kids roughly 10 and up who enjoy collaborative problem-solving under a countdown. The Union Station location adds an adventure feel beyond the room itself. Choose room themes carefully—some are better maintained than others based on recent feedback.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡Book your preferred room theme online in advance—popular slots fill quickly, especially on weekends
Ask staff at check-in which rooms are best maintained and most age-appropriate for your group
🎟️Request hints proactively during the session rather than waiting for staff to check in
🚗Arriving 10–15 minutes early allows time to complete waivers and absorb the Union Station atmosphere
