What is the typical success rate?

Quick Answer

Well, we did have a pet goldfish escape a room once, so we can confidently say your odds are at least better than a goldfish! Just kidding. Every room offers a different challenge - some might say the only consistency is the unpredictability. Maybe you'll be our next Houdini or maybe you'll be more like a mime stuck in an invisible box. Either way, the fun is in the trying! And for those of you who are competitive, we keep a leaderboard that's as up-to-date as your aunt's Facebook status. So get your team together, bring your A-game, and let's see if you have what it takes to beat the all-time record - goldfish not included.
