Three immersive 60-minute escape rooms on Nicollet Mall: The Dig (archaeology/darkness theme, difficulty 4/5), The Agency (spy/James Bond theme, difficulty 4/5), and The Apartment (beginner-friendly). Groups up to 8–12 per room.

Super fun time. We loved The Dig! Thanks Alexander!

🏆 Family Action Verdict

Best for families with kids aged 10 and up who can engage with puzzle logic and narrative scenarios. The Apartment is the recommended starting point for first-timers and younger players. Unlimited hints remove the frustration ceiling — hosts actively guide without giving away solutions outright.

ℹ️ What to Know Before You Go

💡First-timers and families with kids under 13 should book The Apartment — it's designed as the beginner entry point
Groups up to 12 can be accommodated across rooms — book in advance as popular weekend slots fill quickly
🎟️The venue is steps from the Blue and Green Line light rail stops on Nicollet Mall — public transit is the easiest arrival option downtown
🚗Arrive a few minutes early to complete any waiver paperwork and get your pre-game briefing without cutting into your 60-minute clock
