We were in Austin for a company offsite and enjoyed the Panic Room (29 of us between 4 rooms) as a team-building and cooperation event. It was the right level of complexity for escape room beginners and experts. Also, they were accommodating with having us all go together vs at different times. Would recommend!

We did the Oval Office room and it was very cool! It ended up being just my friend and I but it was the perfect amount of challenging and entertaining. We were able to solve the room with just a couple hints. Don’t be discouraged by the “success rates” on the website, it seems like more people complete them than it says!

first time coming here & this place was…alright. decided to book here for my birthday activity on Saturday August 26th. we walked in and it was pretty small space that felt stuffy & hot. ac seemed to not be working & that’s just rough on staff and customers especially in an ongoing excessive heat warning. one guy working was cool, i guess, he was awkward and seemed uncomfortable around people but still nice guy and knowledgeable of the games & company. when we went downstairs to play “the academy” it smelt like someone had just taken a dump in the downstairs… smell especially got worse near the sign that was a restroom & said “employees only”… that made the experience a little gross but once i went nose blind it was better but maybe invest in some febreeze for the bathrooms. i have tried multiple other escape games in austin & i think there are better options elsewhere that are newer & cleaner.

My friends and I did the White House game. Where your in the Oval Office. Lots of fun. Even though it was a single room game we really enjoyed the details and props. Will try their other rooms next time in in Austin.

We loved the panic room and had a great experience. Walter did not let us falter. Walter was awesome and help us get so close to solving the Oval Office. The room design is great and to the theme. (The oval office is almost oval.) The puzzles are interesting and solvable. The mechanics and connections kept us interested. We never felt overwhelmed or that a puzzle was unsolvable. If we were a bit lost, Walter was sure to keep us on track. Thank you for the fun! We can't wait to visit again.

This place is crazy fun! This was my second visit and although the rooms are challenging, it is so exciting and intense. The facilitators have always been excellent and very accommodating. I would highly recommend this as a group activity or a way to make new friends.

Long time escape room goer. Had a wonderful time at all 3 of the rooms here! Sam was one of the most exciting game masters we’ve ever had, their enthusiasm was contagious and really enhanced the experience; Janine was excellent as well, and was super engaged with our feedback on the recently revamped and improved academy room!

We had a fantastic time at Austin Panic Room! We’ve done a dozen or so escape rooms as a team, this one was up there in terms of creativity and fun. Angelica and Cameron guided us through Human Trials, which takes place in the basement of the building - this added to the fantastic creepy atmosphere the room. We will be back to try out additional rooms, thanks APR team!

We had a great time at the Cabin Fever room with Sam as our host. The room was a decent mix of fun and challenging, and Sam did a great job with the hints and tips when we were stuck. Will definitely come again 🫡 …

We had a group of 8 solve “The Academy”. The Pros: the staff were super friendly, helpful and kind. We were running late and they were flexible which I really appreciated. The Cons: the room smelled horrible. It had a septic / sulfur smell …
