Reviews for The Escape Game NYC: Play Only Murders in the Building

Celebrated a birthday with the escape room! We did the only murders in the building room and it was a blast! Thank you Vinny for being a great host!

Cool room, pretty intricate and combines many types of riddles and challenges. A 10/10 location. Sierra balanced amazingly giving hints vs letting us sweat. Recommend.

It was such a great time—Vinny, Sierra and Drea were fantastic and helped us have an immersive and excellent time. So fun and the staff was incredibly energetic and helpful!

Had a great time and Liz was super kind and an amazing host! Highly recommend checking out The Escape Game in NYC! Looking forward to trying out some of the other rooms in the future. :)

Some of the best-looking and innovative Escape Rooms anywhere. A must try for Escape Room aficionados!

Absolutely fantastic staff with incredible rooms. Both the front desk and team members were extremely welcoming and kind. I got a tour of the games and the layouts were amazing to see and the assistant manager was extremely informative about their games. Highly recommend this experience!

#1 Escape Room in NYC! Sydney and Vinny were incredible game guides and were very kind and helpful. Went back twice on the same vacation, and would totally recommend visiting whether you are a local or a tourist!

Vinny was so so friendly and the sweetest!! Had a 100/10 time at the Only Murders themed escape room. Would love to come back next time I’m in NYC. But if you’re here, go to ESCAPE GAME!!

Elizabeth was a great game guide! We had a great time solving the Only Murders in the Building game for our friends birthday! Thanks for a great time! The clues and reveals were great!

This place is amazing. Super kind staff and intricate rooms with lots of puzzles. The prison escape at a 9/10 difficulty is their hardest room and definitely worth the try. We came out with 4 minutes to spare and felt so accomplished. The Special Ops and limited-time OMITB room were also good challenges but definitely went quicker than the prison room. Also they wrote me this adorable happy birthday card while I was in the room and it was so sweet!! Recommend 10/10 and get the Groupon deal for your group for a nice discount!

So much fun and exciting! We went for my nieces and nephew's 12th birthday! They enjoyed every minute! We ate definitely planning to come back! Aidan and Caitlin are the best! They made evening fun and memorable.

It was our first escape room experience. I gave it to my boyfriend for our Anniversary. We enjoyed it! The stuff work really awesome! I loved them! They gave us gifts. Escape rooms are so much fun ! We will come back again and again , I promise!

This was my first escape room and I was skeptical at first but I ended up having an amazing time. My son has played some with different companies but said this one was the best he has ever played. I highly recommend coming here if you are into puzzles, especially to escape the summer heat. The rooms are beautifully made and very engaging. I was very impressed with how well everything was designed. Thank you to Alec, Raelin, and Vinny for helping us every step of the way.

We played the Only Murders in the Building room and we had a blast! The rooms were beautiful, so immersive, and the puzzles were very unique. I highly recommended if you are looking for a fun challenge. The staff were also SOOO incredible. Everyone we came across was so kind and attentive. We couldn’t have done it without our fabulous game guides: Alec and Raelin who gave such helpful clues and got us through! Thank you also to Vinny in the lobby for helping us out with our merch and reservation details!!:) We had such a great experience and we can’t wait to come back and tackle more rooms together!

Incredible escape rooms in every regard (production value, complexity, intuitive, fun)!!! The staff are amazing and the price is just right! Came into town for the weekend and ended up doing 6 rooms in 2 days. Out of the dozens (possibly hundreds) of escape rooms I’ve done, these 6 rooms were all in my top 10 of all time!! Highly recommend!!
