🏆 Family Action Verdict
Best for families with older kids and teens who can sustain 90 minutes of focus, and adult groups. Reviewers - many of whom have done multiple rooms - consistently call out the room production quality and the hosts' enthusiasm (Yenny on bookings, Bryce on briefings are named).

“Yesterday I had my first experience at Escape Rooms CHCH and I’ll definitely be back to try more rooms. Booking beforehand with Yenny was a quick and easy process. Upon entry we were welcomed by Bryce who explained the housekeeping to us before taking us into Gingerbread House. I particularly enjoyed how he used different voices to set the scene of the room. This was a very immersive experience which I thoroughly enjoyed. I can’t wait to come back!”

“I have so very thoroughly enjoyed myself every time I’ve been here, there’s nothing else in this world that makes me quite as happy as doing escape rooms with friends. This place is definitely worth the visit!! I love this place and I love these rooms and I love the seats by reception they’re the best seats. and I especially love Bryce, the sweetie pie who works there. I will be back asap as possible as soon as asap to try another room!!”

“We did the Bunker as our second escape room ever today (our first being the gingerbread house around 1 year ago). Honestly we have been soo blown away both times! The staff friendly, super professional, helpful and fun! The quality of the actual escape room is incredible and can’t be beaten (according to my daughter who has done rooms at other locations). We won’t be waiting a year to come back and do another!!”
