New Escape Room Experience Coming To Downtown Brooklyn

BROOKLYN, NY — There’s a new entertainment option opening in Downtown Brooklyn this weekend.

The Escape Game, renowned for its immersive escape room experiences across the United States, is set to unveil its latest location at City Point this Saturday.

Located along Brooklyn’s busiest retail corridor, Fulton Street, the City Point escape room offers 60-minute adventures filled with clues and puzzles to solve along the way.

The Escape Game has six different experiences to choose from—all of which are intricately designed for total immersion—including a prison break, a spaceship ride and even a time-traveling train, among others.

Founded in Nashville back in 2014, The Escape Game has since expanded into roughly 36 cities across 19 states, with additional locations slated to open later this year.

The content is designed for ages 13 and up due to reading and math skills, but all ages are welcome, officials said. Children four and under can play for free, and for kids aged 14 and below, one adult companion is required to participate in the game.

The cost per person is $41.99.

"In our games, you and your team are heroes on a mission. You’ll enter a highly immersive, multi-room set where you’ll crack codes, uncover clues, and solve puzzles. Our games are collaborative, tactile, story-driven, and about more than just escaping; they are adventures," the company said on its website.

The games are created at the company's "Adventure Factory" in Nashville, Tennessee, by a team consisting of game designers, architects, engineers, carpenters, scenic artists and tech experts.

The Escape Game joins a variety of attractions at City Point, including Alamo Drafthouse, McNally Jackson Bookstore, Lululemon, Target and an array of food vendors in the DeKalb Market Hall.

The Escape Game is open seven days a week, from 8 a.m. to midnight. To book a time, visit https://theescapegame.com/brooklyn/.
