Reviews of Escape My Room New Orleans
Michal Brichacek
Wonderful experience from start to finish. Very immersive from the moment that you walk through the door. The waiting room before you even enter the rooms is next level, and also has some fun puzzles you can warm up with before your room. We did “Jazz Parlor” and “Inventor’s Attic”, and both games were awesome! Very unique and well thought out puzzles. Our gamemasters were both also great. We’ve done escape rooms all over the world, and this one is definitely worth a visit!
Sofia Arrieta
Best escape room I have ever done. Misty was our game master and she was amazing. We loved going in as we didn’t know what to expect. The decor is amazing. Then we did the New Orleans escape room with 3 people and it was perfect
Brentston Evans
Escape My Room is one of the most well thought out escape rooms my group and I have ever encountered. From when you first walk in to when you leave, you have been transported back in time. We completed our third room at this location and out of all the escape rooms we have done, this place has turned into our favorite. The staff are amazing and you always meet a new character for each room. It may seem a little more pricey than other escape rooms, but the experience makes it so worth it!
Taylor Wheaton
What a pleasure. Seriously. There are escape room places that build great sets. Great puzzles. Great moments. And Escape My Room has all of that. But what Escape My Room has that many do not, is narrative. A continuous story that exists through all of their games and involves you from the moment you step into the building.
The lobby, the hallways, and even the game masters, all exist within the intricately crafted world that is Escape My Room. You become involved in a larger story that spans across all of their games. Every puzzle, set piece, prop and story beat are carefully crafted to to enhance the overall narrative.
I have played all of their games and I want to especially shout out Inventor's Attic for its whimsy and brilliant puzzles and props. Smuggler's Den also accomplishes something in an escape room that others have attempted, but they've succeeded where they failed. No spoilers here though! Thank you folks for bringing your storytelling to this amazing industry.
Joanna Ghobrial
Our group had an AWESOME time at this escape the room!! But I have to commend Laslo on his amazing job being the leader and storyteller of our escape the room. He honestly did such a good job and made it such an exciting an experience that we came back the next day, however that storyteller was very unenthusiastic and completely bored - it was a shame. All in all- we had a great time the first time and the puzzles were so fun to work through as a team!
Amanda Bartlett
I would honestly give this place 100 stars if I could. Whatever your expectations are, Escape My Room will exceed them. It's immersive, it's magical, it's fun, it's challenging, the staff is unmatched, the experience is one of a kind- even if you're an escape room vet. I can go on and on. I went for the first time in Sept of 2019 and I was BLOWN AWAY by the level of detail in their building; and that was BEFORE we even got into the actual room. I've done over 20 escape rooms, and even used to work at one. But this one wins over all of them, hands down, and it's not even a competition. We loved it so much we did another room when we came back in Oct of 2021, and will be doing another when we go again in March of 2023. Obviously, I highly recommend this place. I promise you won't be disappointed. One word of warning though: if you've never done a room before and this is your first one, it will absolutely ruin every other one you might do after. This place is on a different level. Nothing can compare. Trust me.
Henry Giovanetto
Great atmosphere, very immersive. Way better than any other escape room I’ve done. The clues were not too far fetched, but still very creative. The actor/guide was very friendly and fun, and was very helpful. If you’re ever in New Orleans I highly recommend it.
Dylan Whitfield
My first escape room, and it was very difficult, which was what made it fun. The guide who was helping us along the way was amazing. Manu puzzles requiring teamwork were very fun. The story of the mystery was also incredibly interesting and fun to be a "detective." Topsy, "Cutie" we love you.
Hope Embodied
My kids and I had so much fun in the Inventors Attic! Kids begged to come back, but since we are out of state, it’s not possible this time, but next time to New Orleans it will be a definite place we revisit. Absolutely authentic and so creative… my kids have been to other escape rooms and HANDS DOWN THIS IS THE BEST they had been to. Must come and enjoy.
Claire L-I
Antoinette was a spirited guide, but not at all intrusive. She set the tone for the escape room perfectly, and gave us just the right amount of help when we were stuck.
The venue itself was also perfect, very thoughtfully decorated and really giving an “old south” vibe. My group had an excellent time here!!
Liangyu Z
This place is so much fun! Really loved that the staff started acting the minute you walk into this place. All the props are very pretty! We did the Mardi Gras Study, the game was fun, not too hard either. Enjoyed it a lot!
Chris La Placa
Had the best time with a group of friends at this escape room! Antoinette was excellent, so accommodating and made this visit to Escape My Room super memorable and fun. Highly recommend this business and especially the jazz club room.
Alex Jargilo
Best escape room I did so far for me. Immersive even before the game. Staff amazingly welcoming. We did the smugglers den and it’s a must try ! Half of the game is in the dark and it’s really fun and unique.
Xander Westwood
We had a wonderful time. From the introduction to the venue with Nadia to the room itself. It was immersive with every detail thought out.
Silsan K
We did 3 out of their 4 rooms (Jazz Parlor, Smuggler's Den and Inventors Attic)!! ALL rooms were pretty awesome!! Excellent challenging puzzles, and awesome electronics props. We are escape rooms enthusiastics with over 50+ escaped rooms all over the US and this place, for sure, became our number one favorite! Amazing decor from the entrance, to the waiting room and to the actual escape room. Not to mentioned awesome hosts! Topsy and Carlton acting skills were fun and made our whole experience very enjoyable. We HIGHLY recommend Escape My Room! Thank you so much guys for making our visit to NOLA a fun one!! 😍
Dominique Cannelongo
This was a good time. All the secret doors and escapes are top tier high end fabrications. Inventive and fun time by all.
Frost JC
If you are looking for an immersive Escape Room then this is the right place. Hands down, it's the most immersive experience Ive been to and Ive been to some too places around the US.
I suggest you start with their Mardi Gras Study even though it's the oldest and first room. Its best to start at the beginning of the story.
Their blackout room was really fun as well, you cant go wrong here.
Make sure you arrive 15 mins before so you get the FULL pre experience! You'll thank me later!
Michelle Olander
Fantastic experience!! The rooms were challenging and the staff was friendly. Will definitely be coming back again!
Sunni Keister
This was so much fun. We will definitely be going back!
Edit: After completing all rooms I can absolutely say this place is great. Every game master we came across stayed beautifully in character without making it weird. The rooms all have the running theme of the DeLaPorte family and feel super authentic. The waiting area is well-decorated and comfortable. Highly, highly recommend!
Jewel Grant
Amazing, incredible, beautiful, perfect! Found this place literally 20 minutes before i walked there with my friend for my birthday! Laszlo is unmatched! Made the experience the greatest from beginning to end, so lively, fun, and helpful. This place is a true gem and is a must if you’re visiting New Orleans. It’s extremely beautiful inside and is a really really good time!
Deziree Rada
Upon arriving to New Orleans, we immediately made our way to Escape My Room to play the Jazz Room & Inventors Attic, giving us our 121st escapes. Walking in the entrance was cool and much can be said about the waiting area. They had a puzzle/mini game available to us while we waited which got us warmed up. Both rooms were excellent and if you are fortunate enough to escape with 15 minutes or more you can choose to do a bonus round 😉 Shout out to our GMs Val and Midge who were great!
Allison
So cool! Fio was a great host and was in character the whole time. We’ve done many escape rooms in different cities and this one was one of our favorites - very unique even from the moment you walk in.
Vigny F.
Had a great experience here! They give unlimited hints, as needed. The decor was great and I love the commitment to the entire theme!!
Buwan N
This was the most immersive escape room I had ever done. Unlike the other escape rooms, you feel like you have stepped into another world as soon as you open the front door.
I did the inventor's attic with one other person. I was told it would be a difficult challenge for only two people, but we were able to escape from the room with 20 minutes left to spare. The puzzles were unique and clever.
Word of advice: Get there early. There are a lot of things you can do and see in the waiting room.
If you enjoy escape room, you need to try out this one before you leave New Orleans.
Joe Kidwell
Great time, first room in two different ones were small for a group of 6, however second room was big enough for 6. Great time though, very fun and interactive. Staff was so nice.
Minnie Henry
This was my first escape room experience, and it completely blew my mind! Our group of 4 was paired with a group of 2 for the "Inventor's Attic". The whole experience was magical from the moment we walked into the parlor of the Delaporte family home, which set the energy and atmosphere for the rest of our time.
Junior was our host, and he did an excellent job guiding our experience. He was helpful when we clearly were following a false tangent, but never gave us any easy outs. He was patient and whimsical, and I would specifically go again when he is there!
The Inventor's Attic was later after layer of surprise and delight. The puzzles we're challenging, and really gave us great pride when each was solved. It was really fun to see your friends work in a new dynamic, and we have not stopped talking about the attic and it's puzzles since we finished!
I am officially hooked on Escape My Room, and am counting the minutes until I go back!
Joel Bryhan
This place is great. My group did both of the available rooms (yes, we beat both even though they have a 32% and 37% win rate). Both of the rooms themselves were awesomely done; probably the best rooms I've done this far. What made the experience even better was that there were even more puzzles in the elaborate lobby to get you warmed up.
Kevin Crimi
Hands down, the best escape room we've done!
We've done a lot of rooms in multiple cities and the Jazz Parlor was the most creative, interactive, and fun room that we've ever seen. There are multiple layers of puzzles for those that dig and the whole experience just shines with a level of attention to detail unmatched by anything else I've tried.
These guys are great. If you like puzzles and unique experiences, go here. I know I'll be back for their other rooms next time I'm in NOLA!
Anna Ambrose
Best escape room we have ever done!
The gamemasters really made the experience a cut above.
Kj Sposato
The story was great and the room had surprise after surprise. Phineas was an excellent facilitator. This is the best escape room from all of the ones I have done around the US.
Laura Lynne
One the best things we did in NOLA. Cannot express how impressed we were. As an escape room enthusiast, this was the most well produced and thought out of them all. From the initial email, to the moment we escaped I was captivated. Definitely go, it's well worth the money!
mickail armstrong
A MUST DO!! This place is not overhyped it is as amazing as it seems. Absolutely worth the money and time. Only arrive about 30 minutes before your time slot even though it says 1 hour. You can walk here from the French Quarter in about 12 minutes. It took me and 3 other adults exactly 1 hour to escape. I wouldn't recommend going without atleast 3 people total or make sure you're in a time slot that has other guests. Not creepy or spooky at all, good light positive problem solving and suspense filled fun. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
Charles H
This is the best escape room I’ve been to so far, and I’ve done them all over the USA. We came back a second day because it was so much fun! The rooms are very high quality and very intricate. Your experience starts when you first enter the facility!
pneuman71
Our recent trip to New Orleans would not have been complete without our experience at Escape My Room. The facility is amazing and dripping with ambiance. From the moment we (my wife and two boys 10 & 12) walked into the building to the moment we left we were completely immersed. The room we did was the jazz room which proved challenging but doable thanks to the perfect subtle guidance of Lazlo who was fantastic. A perfect host and guide. Attentive and helpful without giving us answers but just enough to nudge us along. Lazlo rules!!
Rachael Wilcher
This is the best escape room I’ve ever been to! Right off the bat you’re immersed into the experience when you go to check in and a friendly voice comes over the speaker, greeting you in character and bringing you through a hidden door to the lobby where there’s a warm up puzzle to do while you wait for your room to be ready. Midge the psychic was an amazing hostess and explained the rooms and rules, still in character, in a fun and interactive way. She came over the loudspeaker whenever we needed a clue and the whole experience was just amazing, we will definitely be back!
jim lahman
4 of us tried to tackle the Inventor's Attic as our first escape room adventure. We enjoyed ourselves but didn't finish within the hour. If we had 2 hours we might have finished but it was a bit complex for us newbys. The facility was very cool and our host 'Val' played the role beautifully. We will go back, but for an easier room.
Amanda Clark
Outstanding!!! NADIA is the best host/ game master I’ve ever had! We’ve played over 75 games across the country but this place stands out. The rooms are impressive and staff is very friendly and helpful. We plan to play all the rooms at this place!
rebecca hunter
Visiting from Out of state and decided to fill some time with an escape room. (For reference we have done over 10 rooms over the years in multiple states) I was a little put off by the price (it was just me and my husband) but it was worth it.
I first found the entrance off putting but we were immediately reassured that we were in the right place in such a fun away, and showing up a few minutes early was rewarded! This was such a great experience. We did the smugglers den and while the actual puzzles weren’t the hardest we have had , the way you had to do them was so unique and fun! I am now planning on coming back to New Orleans just to bring the kids to this escape room.
Tammy Austin
By far the most immersive and intuitive escape room I’ve ever done. Each room is connected and the story is top notch. An absolute must. Worth the price! Lazlo is a true star!
Allison Johnson
This place has an administration that is on point. They contact you almost immediately after you call or email. When the employees speak to you they talk with genuine understanding and warmth. I will definitely be coming here on my next NOLA trip.
Dana Stuart
This was my first experience with an escape room, and it absolutely spoiled me. Nothing else has came close to how AWESOME our experience was. I came with a friend and did the jazz parlor one night and another room the following night. We absolutely loved it!! HIGHLY recommend. The whole experience was awesome, the entrance, the staff, the stories, the rooms, the detail in the facility and rooms, just outstanding. Must do!!!
R H
One of the coolest escape room experiences ever. The entrance alone is worth the trip! I've done quite a few escape rooms in the past few years and this one definitely was one of the best! The level of interaction was really high, and unique. There were a few things that need fixing, like they need to redo their blacklight marker stuff, but otherwise it was amazing.
Seth K
Extremely well done! One of the (if not) best escape rooms I have done. Great decor and puzzles! Highly recommend.
Logan Ibarra
Amazingly detailed, lovingly crafted escape room. The puzzle masters are unique and committed to the experience. My group did two different rooms in an afternoon and they were equally fantastic. We consider ourselves pretty seasoned and they both proved challenging. We were impressed by the level of detail and the craftsmanship of the individual rooms as well as the business as a whole. If you are looking for an escape room in the area, don't miss it!
Leia Ja'zelle
Don't let the location fool you! Once you walk into their main entrance room you are instantly transferred into the game. Everything is decorated with little small saying and jokes as well as a little game at the beginning while you wait. Once you begin your room you get so focused the time flies! At any point you can speak to the voice in the sky, aka your game host or hostess, if you need hints. This was my first escape game and I'm already signed up for my second. Fantastic experience!
emelda fountain
Emily was the best. Great host room was a ball. We are going back to do the room with no light. Emily's suggestion.
Rox
This was my first escape room and I loved it! Misty was amazing, stayed in character the whole time. If you want something different to do in New Orleans, you should definitely consider this but definitely bring your thinking caps!
Kristen Bonifas
Phenomenal experience! The theming, puzzles, overall atmosphere, and staff were absolutely amazing. We are still talking about how much fun we had and planning our next adventure to Escape My Room!
Ellie Cummins
Val was so great and stayed in character our entire visit! Jazz Parlor had a really cool set, and I adored Inventor’s Attic and the puzzles inside! Would definitely recommend. Such a cool experience!
Dana Hamson
We were visiting from San Diego and our swamp tour was cancelled do to weather. We decided to do Inventor's Attic with the family: parents, two teens and a preteen. It was the best escape room we have ever been to. The clues were challenging and fun to work out . The decor was amazing, which added to the atmosphere and the sense of make believe. Great fun, well worth it.
Clarissa Wachenfeld
Wonderfully decorated and detailed rooms. We had a lot of fun and would recommend!
Allyson
I have been to many escape rooms before, but this was by far my favorite! I did the Mardi Gras Study with my friends for my birthday and had an absolute blast. The atmosphere created at Escape My Room is so immersive and incredible from the moment you walk in the door. The staff is awesome as well! We will definitely be back.
William S Boyd
Amazing attention to detail! A great story background and fantastic attention to detail. This isn't easy, but definitely fun!
Kyle Przybylski
One of the best escape rooms you will ever enter (and maybe leave). Challenging puzzles, but also worthy for all experience levels and ages. The host Midge is amazing! Really will change how you feel about all other escape rooms (hint: this one is better).
Colin Apke
My wife and I love doing escape rooms every time we visit a new area (strange hobby, but we are strange people) and this place stood out in our experience. We really love it when the local staff get into character for the place, and it makes the whole adventure that much more immersive. We highly recommend this place to anyone else interested in a well crafted and highly immersive experience.
Wouter de Bie
A very pretty and well done escape room venue. We've finished all 4 rooms with two people, which was a lot of fun and a challenge! We really liked the fact that there's a story that connects all rooms in a way.
Michelle Abouhaidar
Absolutely immersive experience. Lazlo was an amazing host. Would recommend to anyone!
Joseph Schuit
This is by far the coolest escape room I’ve ever done. We had two groups of 6 race to complete the two Jazz rooms and it was such a fun group activity.
The entire experience from the moment you walk in is outstanding. HIGHLY recommend.
Morgan Campbell
Booked the Jazz Parlor Escape room on a whim on a sunday morning. We did need to wear our masks the whole time, staff also wore masks the whole time due to COVID which was no bother. The experience began as soon as we walked in, the establishment was quirky from the decor to our host, Emily. Emily was very upbeat and completely in character. We got a back story and were led to our room. The Jazz Parlor escape room was very fun, challenging at times, hints were helpful! We ESCAPED!! There was even a bonus second challenge we got to endure following the escape room which was a nice surprise. Would recommend!!
Jeremy Patterson
Atmospheric but exceedingly poorly lit. The room we played had a number of interesting puzzles but it was made much more difficult due to poor lighting and worn and poorly functioning equipmemt. Be prepared to read *a lot* of text.
On the positive side there was not an over-reliance on combination lock based puzzles.
Kristina Finch
My husband and I escaped from the Jazz Parlor with Emily as our host. First of all - Emily was ON IT! The moment we had a question or needed a hint she was on the speakers to help... almost as if she was actually paying attention to what we were doing, which isn’t something we have experienced a lot in the area! We’ve done over 100 rooms all over the country and really enjoyed this room and company. The room was VERY well designed, and challenging while still remaining logical. We loved the added immersion of the spooky lobby and our wonderful host, Emily, staying in character the whole time. We will be back to do the other rooms!!
James R
My friends and I have done roughly 10 escape rooms together and I think this place is my favorite. We did two rooms in one weekend. (Smugglers Den and Inventors Attic) We've been to several escape rooms elsewhere where the rooms itself were just awesome. Great props, decor and themes but there is just something about this place that stands out to me. The props were good here too. Pretty much everything in the entire place looks like a piece from time but Good vibes I got is the best way I can describe this place. It wasn't just "ok you are here to play a game, watch this video and begin". From the moment we walked in the employees are more of actors and are in character with the theme of the Mansion and the room you are doing. The rooms were challenging but not super hard. Smugglers Den was quite a new experience for us. The clues are there if you know where look (or feel) and there is no 'penalty' for getting a little nudge in the right direction if needed. We didn't need it though. (Well..maybe just once) If you are in N.O. looking for something fun to do that isn't Bourbon St. You should definitely challenge yourself at Escape My Room.
Mr T
This was our first escape room. It was well conceived and the eccentric pieces added to the experience. If you have not done an escape room you should. This one is not a bad place to start.

Great Time for Rookies
My group of four decided to take a break from stuffing our faces and drinking excessively while visiting NOLA. I recalled seeing an ad for an Escape Room in the area so I looked it up. I was glad that it was within a very short (<6 mins) walk from our hotel. Took a bit of convincing for my friends to go because they didn't understand the concept. I had been once before to an Escape Room though. Not wanting to spoil it for you, but the NOLA Escape Room is much better than my last experience (which was super fun as well). The theme starts out as soon as you enter the door, and the staff are in character throughout. Antoinette was our hostess and was funny the entire time. She also knew when to assist us when we were stuck and wasting time. I recommend the Jazz room for newbies. With a bit of luck, and teamwork you have a good chance of figuring it out. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! Thanks Antoinette! You made all the difference.
Kathrin Verestoun
One of the best escape room experiences I’ve ever had!
You can tell a lot of thought and work has been put into these rooms - the puzzles are novel and related to the story. And the decor! While some escape rooms I’ve been to keep the decor light (so everything in the room turns out to be a clue), the rooms are rich with red herrings and background plot.
Loved the entire experience and wish I had done the room earlier in my trip to New Orleans - I now want to try them all!!
A great way to spend a rainy day!
Jose Rodriguez
Super fun experience doing the Mardi Gras room, participated with wife and kiddos, we were a mess every now and then, but our guide, Misty, was very helpful to keep us on track. The kids loved it even though it was not a kid theme, and want to try more escape rooms.
Melody De Costa
Super awesome experience! Loved loved everything about it. All 4 of us had a blast. Bonus points for Cheesey.
Phil Dolmage
We've done a few escape rooms, so decided to spend a rainy vacation day doing this one and were not disappointed. The atmosphere and design were excellent, with a New Orleans feel yet accessible for travellers (no specific local knowledge required). Our host Wren was excellent, both very friendly and helpful throughout the experience. The escape room puzzles were quite well designed, with many unique challenges. We were impressed by the thought put into it, as well as the fact that it flowed very well and was doable for 2 people (both having experience with escape rooms) yet also posed challenges along the way. The location of the building was fairly close to where we were staying and booking a weekday morning spot didn't require excessive notice.
It is lots of fun for a smaller group and well worth your time! Would have loved to try an additional room if we were there for a longer period of time (especially with cold/rainy weather!).
Nathan Leong
We did the "Smuggler's Den." I have been through 20+ escape rooms in several different cities, and Escape My Room in New Orleans is one of the most outstanding and unique escape rooms I have tried. This place is amazing! As other reviews have stated, the experience starts as soon as you walk in the front door. I don't want to spoil anything, but they have set up a really interesting world and stories that tie to each (escape) room. The staff stays in character from beginning to end too.
Our game master for the room was Wren. Special thanks to her for not giving any unprompted hints during the game even though we were struggling. We usually like to try to see how far we can get without help first. We started asking for hints with 4 minutes left but we still didn't pass (pretty close though). They're not joking about the pitch black for half the game! Also note Smuggler's Den is only 45 minutes long. Anyway, I highly recommend this room and I hope we have time to try another before we leave!
Matt Potts
This is a great experience! Our group did two rooms. The puzzles are well set up - challenging but solvable. They even have bonus puzzles if you get through the rooms faster than anticipated. The decor and the story are great and the staff is incredibly friendly. If you go, check out the several puzzles in the waiting area.
Koriand'R Tellier
Having done close to 100 rooms at this point I was thoroughly impressed! Some of the best story telling I've ever seen, great set design the immersion starts the second you walk in. The puzzles are unique and clever without being too terribly hard to solve. Will have to come back and do their other two rooms!!!
Cheyenne T-C
My friend and I did Smuggler's Den and it was absolutely amazing. The sets are beautiful, the puzzles are super creative and challenging. I've done 20 escape rooms in different places and I have to say this is definitely one of my favorites. Thank you Misty for being an amazing Escape Guide. You really enhanced the experience
Valerie Lucas
This place is amazing. The decorations, staff, props, puzzles - all wonderful. If I had time, I would do every room. That said, I booked the Inventor's Attic for a group, and we had an absolute blast. This is the BEST escape room ever.
Felicia Best
Visited this escape room with a friend. We've both done a number of escape rooms before, but this was our first time visiting this Escape My Room in New Orleans. It was so much fun. You can tell that a lot of thought and work has gone into to overall setup of the facility and the rooms. The game starts as soon as you walk in the door! We did the Jazz Parlor and it was so much fun. Misty was our hostess/facilitator and she was great! She was friendly and informative and just made the whole thing interesting and fun from start to finish! I would recommend this location to anyone looking for something different to do while in New Orleans! And...We Escaped!
Lisa Olson
My daughter and i had a great time escaping from the Jazz Parlour Room. Great puzzles that were clever and challenging but not impossible. The decor was high quality and Belle, our host, was amazing. The minute you walk in you are immersed in the atmosphere and fun. I highly recommend this adventure!
Dammira Hsu
Fantastic experience! The initial welcome into the game was superb, I've done a couple escape rooms and I've never had such a beginning. The puzzle itself (I did the inventors puzzle) was very well crafted. No part was too frustrating to complete and solving the puzzles was very rewarding. This was definitely well worth the money spent!
Nathan Shaw
What a great Escape Room Company...
I was able to do Jazz Parlor and Inventor's Attic, and wished that I had time to investigate more...JP was a great start with some unique pieces, but my partner and I left IA beaming with joy! IA is such a well written game, with non-stop impressive tech and puzzles that are super fun to solve.
The space is so immersive and pays clever homage to the beautiful and mysterious city it resides. I've have had the pleasure of visiting many Escape Rooms in different countries, and this was one of the coolest introductions and use of lobby space I've ever seen. I would love to dive into the details, but don't want to spoil this for anyone!
The staff were also top notch, catering perfectly to our experience all while maintaining character. I have no idea how they organize and keep the flow working so well within the space....it is a well designed and managed operation.
I highly recommend these experiences to locals looking for something new to try, tourists wanting an awesome to-do that feels like NOLA, enthusiasts excited for a new challenge, gamers looking for the next great game, artists appreciating other artists, or.....pretty much everyone.
Cheers to Escape My Room!

We did the Heist escape and had so much fun!
Andre Boulay
By far BEST Escape Room experience we have had yet! The Inventor's Attic is so ingenious and fun (we came back next night to do Jazz Room which was great too). The environment in both are incredible. From beginning to end we were beyond impressed and wish we loved closer so we could complete all the rooms!
Mandy Bartlett
I've done over a dozen escape rooms and this was by far the best one. We visited for my birthday and escaped with just 6 minutes left. The rooms were beyond immersive. You start from the minute you walk in and are immediately solving puzzles. The waiting area has puzzles for you to do to keep you busy and warm up. The staff was awesome and so on brand. The room was clever and we'll thought out. If I lived here if be back every weekend!
Allison Almand Ezell
This is by far the best escape room we have ever done. And our family has done a lot of escape rooms. We loved Inventors Attic so much that we immediately signed up to do Jazz Parlor the next day. The family is now talking about another trip to New Orleans just to complete the other 2 rooms. The puzzles were unique compared to other escape rooms. Appropriately challenging, but not impossible. The details, props and decor were amazing. Cannot even imagine the time and effort it took to create these rooms. This is a must do experience while in New Orleans!
Margaret O'Brien Maples
Very fun and very pretty! Our game master was super nice and helpful, and the set design is great. They'll try to get you 100% immersed from the moment you walk in the door -- which we found a little confusing but definitely fun. The game we did (Jazz parlor) was really challenging. Leave your super-competitive friends at home!
Dean
I totes adore how this game starts off. I don't want to give it away. But, answer the phone when it rings. You will be glad you did. They have you figuring out puzzles well before your game even starts. The employees do a great job staying in character the entire length of your stay. We did an escape room that was completely dark for the majority of the time. It was a little scary at first. But once you realize there's nothing to scare you it just gets tedious. So much effort to solve very basic puzzles because you can't see what you're doing. Don't get me wrong I had a blast. But once the lights come on, it's an entirely different experience. Peace out and keep up the good.
Adrien Wild
What a fun experience! Beautifully decorated rooms that send you back in time to solve a murder...the puzzles were challenging, but teamwork paid off. And the in-character staff were great, so helpful! Thank you Misty and Joy! Everyone should experience this place.
Cristina Eck
This place was awesome and thorough. It was also really hard. We had a really good time and we solved the murder with 7 minutes to spare! The rooms are very very unique and the storyline is also unique. They put a lot of effort into the details of the room and even just when you walk in. It's a lot of fun and totally worth the money. We made it a closed session which made it a little bit more expensive but was worth it because then nobody random could intrude on our session and schedule themselves at the same time as us. We had Wren and she was amazing
Charlann Kable
My first Escape Room (Inventor's Attic). It was very entertaining. Hard but not too hard that you wanted to give up. Like the way it's set up with strange and unique decorations throughout, the costumes you can wear if you choose and the photo at the end. A nice bonus. Our hostess was very nice and explained everything. We did manage to escape but it did take a few helpful hints from our hostess to do it.
Kristy Rowe
Had so much fun! Spent a rainy day here with awesome hosts Misty, Agnes, and Jr! We loved the design of these room and the puzzle. Definitely recommend Smugglers Den and Inventors Attic. Such a great consistent theme throughout.
Jeff Wayland
Really awesome set of rooms! We did the inventor's attic and it was just hard enough that we finished with minutes to spare, but not so hard that we got stuck on any one puzzle for 30 minutes! The whole experience is really immersice, starting when you enter the waiting room everything is themed and really well decorated. The staff is very friendly and the process is well organized. My one small critique is that a few of the puzzles just required you to systematically try different combinations of answers until you happened to get one right, which I'm not a big fan of. Otherwise fantastic experience and we will be back!
Bill Tice
Really fantastic experience, worth every penny. I've done both rooms and they are both a lot of fun and not easy. I've been to one other escape room in Florida which was just an office that happened to have some escape rooms but Escape My Room really puts in the time and effort into the ambience of the entire experience starting with the very first room you walk into (not even an escape room itself, just the parlor) all the way to the last. The staff is funny and part of the charm. The puzzles are tricky without being needlessly frustrating and the payoffs are hugely rewarding throughout. Highly recommend.
Anna DiNardo-Smith
Some of the best experiences I have had at an escape room. I had done a few at home, and while on vacation I convinced my partner to give one a shot. We ended up doing 3 of the 4 rooms in the week we were in town. Nathaniel, Junior, and Dottie were great hosts. The experience starts from the moment you walk in the door, and the cohesiveness of the storyline of the the DeLaporte house is a great touch. Don't miss the Smugglers Den if you have the chance.
Robyn C
We had an absolute blast tonight! We went into the Escape Room with completely open minds. Similar entertainment venues don't even give a glimmer in comparison to the entertainment we had in the Jazz Parlor with Jax as our guide. We will definitely continue to assemble groups and come to play all rooms! Great info to know: a good number of the Escape Rooms are accessible. This made a huge difference in my experience!
Jamie Ransonet
We have done over 40 escape rooms across Louisiana and Escape My Room is amazing! So immersive from the moment you walk in! We did the inventor's attic today. We were paired with 2 other people and it was perfect! We escaped with seconds to spare! I can't wait to come back and do more of their rooms! Antoinette was absolutely amazing 😍! …
Harrison Seung
Excellent staff and beautiful production value from the moment you step into the building. You can clearly tell the people who work here really love the medium of Escape Rooms and are enthusiastic for you to have a good time. I've done 30+ escape rooms and did the Inventors Attic here. Would rate it a medium difficulty with our group finishing in 40 minutes. Puzzles are cleverly thought out and flowed logically with the theme. If you are in visiting NOLA, I'd definitely recommend allotting an hour or 2 of your trip for this Escape Adventure
Jen H
Easily one of the best escape rooms I've escaped from and I've escaped from plenty ;)
I'm from CA and I thought it'd be fun to do a new escape room in a new city. I did quick a yelp search and fell in love with this place. It's one of the few rooms I've seen that had such a compelling theme. The entire escape room(s) share a central backstory and Escape My Room has done a fantastic job in making sure their guest feel immersed in the story.
If you're in New Orleans looking for a room to do then I highly recommend checking this place out. Why?
Rooms Played:
I did both the inventor's attic and smuggler's den which were the two hardest room to date and our group size is 6 people.
Puzzles: (5/5) They did a good job of balancing between finding clues/objects and logic puzzles. In addition, they did a great job in spreading the puzzles out so that simultaneous groups can do puzzles and it's not linear. This is super important for larger groups so that everyone can actively participate.
Production Value: (5/5) From the lobby to the actual escape room, everything was so well themed. I felt like I got transported to another time and world. They even let you wear costumes to feel like you're a part of the story! From start to finish, you'll feel like you're a part of the story.
Price: (4/5) It's priced at ~$30 per person. This is pretty standard compared to other escape rooms. I actually think it's well worth the price!
Other things to note:
- I love that it's a little tricky finding the place, a little puzzles before the actual puzzle
- street parking only
Jessica Bonham
My family has done over 100 rooms in 7 states, and Escape My Room was by far one of our favorites. Their puzzles are awesome, and Nathaniel was our favorite Clue Master! He made the whole experience better than we ever could have imagined!! If you ever have a chance you should definitely go for a once-in-a-lifetime experience!
Valiere Brianne
Spectacular escape room... best I've ever tried. My boyfriend and I were blown away! The gorgeous setting, intricate props, awesome puzzles, technology, sound effects, it was just an experience like no other. I loved how very "New Orleans" all of it was and how much our hosts stayed in character. I HIGHLY, without reservation, recommend this to anyone living in the city or just passing by. For the record, the rooms we did were the Jazz Parlor and the Inventor's Attic (the first is challenging but better for beginners, the second I'd recommend to groups with a little more experience).
Britney Barlar
If you ever get the chance to check out Escape My Room in New Orleans you will not be disappointed! From the second you walk in the mystery begins. The kids (10,12) really got into character and it was neat to watch them interact with everything. I suggest arriving early so you can explore the amazing rooms and puzzles they have in the waiting area. The detail and thought put into this establishment is what makes it so jaw dropping and fun!!
Kelly Slate
We have been trying to hit at least one Escape Room in each US state. We were in NOLA for the weekend, and tried the "Jazz Parlor". It was so awesome, we came back the next night to try the "Inventors Attic"! Way better than most other rooms where you spend an hour fiddling with padlocks. Even just getting in to the building is fun. This experience was excellent, immersive, and just the right difficulty level. The staff was fantastic (thanks Emily!). 10/10 we will totally do another room at Escape My Room if we're ever back in New Orleans.
Deja Spratley
THIS PLACE IS ABSOLUTELY AMAZING! Literally from the moment my friend and I tried to find it we started having fun! I love how much thought and detail went into the design of the rooms, and how they really let you put yourself in the roles that go with the theme of the room. Honestly, I have been to three other escape rooms and this one is by far my favorite and on the cheaper end for some that I have seen. It was well worth my time and money. Oh yeah, Agnes is the best, so helpful and very sweet :)!!
David Portnoy
Did the jazz room as a party of 2 and a separate party of 3. I'm an escape room veteran and can say for certain this room will not disappoint. Refreshingly, it has very few mechanical locks to open and instead revolves more around interacting with the environment. The logic flows well from one objective to the next. There is a more fleshed out narrative than most escape rooms and some of the reading materials will make the story richer-- while providing clues of course. Overall production values are excellent; the materials look and feel authentic. The guide was fantastic, affecting an accent that was just the right proportions of cheesy and charming.
I strongly recommend this escape room whether it's your first or fiftieth.
Leah Chapman
Awesome place! You are in character from the moment you step in the front door. The lobby area is large and expansive with all kinds of interesting things to look at while you wait. We did the Jazz Parlor mystery, which was very fun. We didn't escape but got very close! All different sorts of puzzles and clues. The bar has been set high for all other escape rooms.
Meredith Healan
We are Escape Room owners and enthusiasts from the Dallas/Fort Worth area and made a trip to the New Orleans area just to play escape rooms. We have now played over 180 escape rooms all over the country. Escape My Room is now my favorite escape room company. What they have created is a masterpiece. The immersion starts the moment you walk in and the way they have designed your experience is absolutely incredible. I could have spent my entire day in their lobby, just exploring and experiencing all of the lovely details. The games themselves were absolutely beautiful, themed so well and so believably, full of clever puzzles and incredible reveals that were truly joyful to experience. We were only able to play 2 games this trip but in a way I'm happy because that means I get to go back and experience it again. I can't wait!
John DeWyze
This was the best escape room I have ever done. Carlos was an incredible guide with a great sense of humor. “Escaping the room” was easy to moderate, but the bonus puzzle had us racing to the last minute.
Decorations were clearly curated and it wasn’t just an afterthought. The puzzle gave 6 people plenty to do with some cool effects and solutions that definitely required some brain power. Wish we stayed in NOLA longer to do more of these.
A K
What an incredible experience! I've done escape rooms in the past and none of them had this much attention to detail and such a creative and unique way to begin. We escaped Smugglers Den with 20 seconds left. Penny was such a wonderful host!
Charles Luna
If you've never been to an escape room, you NEED to go to this one! If you have been to escape rooms before, this will be the best one you've seen. I've visited quite a few and this one is over the top! Even my 20-something kids thought this place was amazing. We'll definitely be telling everyone about Escape My Room.
Heather Christy
This escape my room was incredible! A true experience and very well thought out. We've done a couple in Arizona, and this location in New Orleans definitely topped our experiences elsewhere! They did an incredible job of keeping the mystery for the entire experience! Loved this place, highly recommend. Fun activity to work your brain.
Veronica Cervantes
This is an immersive experience from the moment you walk in the door. We found this Escape Room on our last day in New Orleans and we had to do all 4. These have easily been my favorite. My husband and I have done puzzle rooms all over the country. This checks all our boxes - thematic, caring staff, non-linear puzzles, and great pacing. I really can't say enough great things. Junior, Wren, Penny, and Kitty guided us throughout our day and they were all amazing. Definitely a must-visit.
Johanna Otte
It was one of the most fun Escpae Rooms I ever played. The riddle designs were interesting and not too difficult, but we still needed some clues. The set designs were awesome (as was the waiting room) and really took me deep into the story!
We were really lucky to have Misty as our guide. She did a good job with the roleplaying part to take us into the setting.
Thomas Webber
Agnes was a great host, and the room was designed wonderfully! Apart from the great room and service, I think what sets this place apart is the entire escape room atmosphere from the moment you walk in and can solve elaborate puzzles in the lobby. As someone who has done at least 15 escape rooms so far, I would highly recommend to everyone.
Dagmar Derickson
Our work group had so much fun solving these clues and escaping the room! They start the experience with costumes and setting the scene, and then they put you in a themed room (we got Jazz themed!) and the timer begins! You have 60 minutes to work with your team to find clues and solve the puzzles to escape the room. Very hands on with fun and inventive clues. Great team builder in a fun and engaging environment. Would recommend to families, friends, co-workers, etc for any occasion.
Cole Curtis
Omg , we've done escape rooms... This is another level and sooooooo much fun. I'd rate a 10 if we could. As a Georgia person there for Mardi gras, this was a highlight of our trip ♥️♥️
Triskell Young
This escape room was great. I had done a different escape room before and this one beat it as far as the attention to detail, the story and the setup (in the other one, for example, it was sometimes too dark to see or write, no such problems here). We did the Jazz Parlor and Rose was our hostess. We were very close to escaping, didn't manage to, but lots of fun was had by all. I also loved the fact that we were encouraged to choose costumes out of a chest and put them on, and the way to check in via a perfume shop was a lot of fun. I highly recommend this as a fun, group bonding activity.
Lucas
Every part of Escape my Room, from entering the building and leaving, is super cool. The puzzles were challenging, but they were not dumb luck tests. I couldn't make it out in time, but it was still the best fun in New Orleans. Be sure to bring your friends here!
Edit: Thank you Junior for the super experience.
David Murphy
This was my first attempt at an escape room, an experience I shared with a friend and a couple of strangers, all of which were also first timers. We chose the Inventor's Attic room and it was such an enjoyable experience. Our host 'Phineas' gave a brief and enjoyable back story before disappearing into the background. We only heard from him again when we were obviously stuck and then he offered a couple of hints rather than actually solving puzzles for us. We never did escape, having 1.5 puzzles left to solve before the time ran out. Not bad for our first ever escape room. All in all a brilliant experience I couldn't recommend more. Do yourself a favor and book a session now!
Alex Torres
A wonderful time. The greeting is weird and unexpected, the building is out of the way, the setting is gorgeous, you can costume if you wish. I played the Smuggler's Den and it was wonderfully twisty. The puzzles were great. Love to come back and try the other experiences.
MzPearlz
We did the Escape my Room’s Jazz Parlor and it was amazing! It gave us some spooks, and looked so authentic. We had 6 people and it felt a little crowded initially but there was something for everyone to find. And ~Belle~!! Was the best helper! We got out with seconds to spare and our guide definitely deserves that new fur coat! 🤩 …
Nikolas Illerbrun
The entrance of the room is a cool and wonderful way to start setting the mood. The decor of this place is probably the coolest of any escape room that I've been to. The puzzles were interesting and the fact that all of the different rooms lead into a larger overarching plot about the family is also a cool twist.
David Padowicz
This was my sixth escape room and by far the best! Kitty was our host and she was great through and through. The overall experience was incredible with perfect props and setups to the room. Even the entrance to the place is stunning. If you're looking for an excellent experience, this is it!
Holly Lorton
We had a great experience in the Inventor's Attic. From walking in the front door to leaving (after successfully escaping), we were immersed in the full detective experience. I highly recommend taking advantage of the "warm up" games in the waiting room, as these helped our team learn what types of challenges were ahead, as well as start to work together. This is now our go-to team building experience.
Derek Miller
What an amazing place! Such a unique experience! Penny and Kitty were the most amazing hostesses. We have done nearly 20 rooms across the state and this is among the elite. If you are a veteran or this is your very first room this place has tons to offer!
Claudio Venancio
Honestly one of the best escape rooms I've been to. The puzzles were so much fun. We had the jazz parlor theme and our host Jax was super helpful and super in character. I'm coming back next week for sure
Joel Brookins
It's was a great experience. My team loved it.
Lindy Bourgeois
Took my daughter for her 13th birthday. We had 4 adults and 4 kids. Escaped Jazz Parlor with 10 minutes to spare. One of the best Escape Rooms that we’ve done. Get there early. There are fun puzzles in the parlor.
Keeks S
This was my first time participating in an escape room and I lovedddd it. The jazz parlor was so much fun. Playing detective and beating the clock down to the last minute was so satisfying.
The staff was nice and didn't take points away if we asked for a hint.
We had a couple join our team and we created the perfect team.
I would soo recommend this place!
elaine sample
We went as a family of four to New Orleans and had so much fun the first time that we played a different room the next day. We especially appreciated that the room had a New Orleans vibe to it, so we didn't feel like we could be doing an escape room in any city- it definitely felt like New Orleans. From the moment you ring the bell you are transported to The waiting area is themed and there are puzzles to do while you wait. Most other escape room that we have done have a sterile environment for their eating room, with the exception of the Hollywood Escape Room. We've done 8 different places for escape room and this was our favorite. Both of the stories made sense and the puzzles were challenging and fun.
Selvoy Fillerup
I can't say enough good things about this escape room. I can't recommend it highly enough.
Jenn O'Rourke
My boyfriend and I have done close to 30 escape rooms across the country, and this one was one of the most immersive, well designed, and fun rooms we've ever done. As soon as you walk in the 'lobby', you are solving puzzles and inside the story. Seriously impressed with everything!! Junior and Penny were great hosts!!
Vasula Tsongas
I was expecting this to be fun but this was BEYOND fun. My husband bought us 2 tickets for my birthday and we were paired with another group of 6 people. The decor, mood, story line, and clues were all so detailed and well thought out. We did end up escaping in time but it was very challenging - exactly what I was hoping for. Don't mistake this for some kind of "tourist" attraction. I'm a local, I don't like touristy things and this was not touristy at all - locals and tourists alike can enjoy this place. I had so much fun, and our team worked so well together. Go, you won't be disappointed!
Not So Plain Jane
First experience with escape the room, and I was highly impressed! You really feel like you’ve stepped back in time. Everything was so well thought out, you begin as soon as you step in, and they even have costumes to get you more in the mood to investigate! Had a wonderful time, and thinking about doing another room before we leave! Loved it.
Billy Richter
Visiting New Orleans before our cruise and decided to visit Escape My Room after dinner. My wife and I love to visit escape rooms in our travels and this one didn’t disappoint. From the moment we walked in the door our adventure began with a phone call. We did not escape but had a blast trying. Very highly recommended. Thank you for the memorable experience.
Jaclyn Baxter
This was the best escape room! From the moment you walk in it starts. I love how the worker is in character and dressed up! Miss. Bell was great! They really put a lot of work into this escape room and it really was like stepping back in time! Would highly recommend this escape room!
Jessica Rohloff
I'm a little obsessed with escape rooms, I've done them in Dallas, Austin, Traverse City, Porto (Portugal), London, and several other places around the globe. Of all the escape rooms I've tried, this one is by FAR my favorite. The atmosphere, attention to detail, and New Orleans-based storyline make Escape My Room an amazing experience. Whenever I'm in New Orleans, I check to see if a new room is available, because it's one of my favorite things to do in the city. I can't recommend it highly enough. It's a little hard to find, partly due to some construction that was being done on the street outside, but that just adds to the experience. Step one of the escape room: find the escape room. I also love the puzzles you can do in the waiting area. If you're thinking about trying an escape room, this is the one you should do! Seriously. Totally worth the price.
Tina Farlow
My sons (19 & 9) and I visited New Orleans for Spring Break and came across Escape My Room while looking for activities nearby. Not realizing it was appointment only, we were greeted in the most unexpected fashion. Immediately hooked us so we booked a slot for the following day. The entire experience was so much fun, perfect mix of vintage creep factors, puzzles, story lines, and teamwork. I wish this was in our city so we could enjoy each experience. Phineas was a delight, couldn't determine if he was a great actor or truly as eccentric as he seemed. Lol. Escape My Room is for sure on our list for when we visit N.O. again.
Melissa Gray
SO MUCH FUN! This was my first escape room experience, and wow was it awesome! You don't have to arrive early if you don't want, but there are puzzles to solve in the waiting area, and they are a good warm-up to what you'll be doing in the room. Plus there are just so many cool things to look at! We had 3 adults in our group, and paid for 8 to have the room to ourselves. But in hindsight, we see how fun it would be to join others, plus there are so many puzzles to solve that you could use extra help! We did finish, but with about 2 seconds to spare. The room (we did Mardi Gras room) was a great balance of challenging, without being too frustrating, and when we got stuck once, they gave us a hint without giving it away. Highly recommend, and will be back the next time we visit New Orleans!
Lara fastman
My family of 4 loved this place!! With 2 minutes to spare we escaped our inventors room. Loved every minute of it and can’t wait to return! A high light of our NOLA trip!
Elizabeth Monaghan
This was my first escape room, and it was an amazing experience! Nathaniel was a perfect host with just the right amount of humor and his acting skills made the experience that enhanced the mystique of the venue. The props were sublime, beautiful, and very appropriate and detailed to the room. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone, and look forward to experiencing this venue again! (Did not escape the Mardi Gras room, but it was still worth it! So much fun!)
Francesco Visin
We did the "Smugglers den" yesterday, and it was AMAZING. The location is great - very well curated, it really feels like you are entering the mansion of a real family! The room was really fun, the puzzles vary a lot and while being non-trivial they were also not impossibly difficult and did not require a "brute force" approach to be solved. Definitely recommended!!
Melissa Williams
This place is AWESOME! The detail, y'all! We did the Jazz Parlor and it was fun. The other rooms are part of the same theme, but you don't have to do them in any particular order to follow the story. We can't wait to go back and try another one!
Kayla McMaster-Gaspard
I came to the Escape My Room for my bachelorette party and we had an absolute blast! It was so exciting figuring out the puzzles and kept interest at every new clue to the mystery. It was my first time and we did the Jazz Parlor room and we were one baby step from finishing before the time ran out! I would definitely go back and do it again!
Omar Aniff
It was a good escape room experience. First, this company did a great job creating an immersive ambience that really sucked you into the scenario and New Orleans' history. The puzzles were fun but pretty difficult. The only thing is you should plan more than an hour for the experience as the company was very slow getting us into our room. We were not in the room until a half hour after our scheduled time, instead we were waiting in the lobby without anything to do or instruction.
Alana Ingram
Escape my room was fun, fast-paced and exciting. It had twists and turns around every corner as well as an interesting storyline to boot. Also, Misty our staff member was awesome. She was friendly, helpful and very informative. I can't wait to go again!
Sunshine and Wind
This was the first time in an escape room for my girlfriend and I and we could not have asked for a better experience. Belle was an incredible host: helpful, charming, and gracious. The biz was reasonably priced and we were matched with a fun group. The room was very challenging but we made it out!
Terah Bryant
Great experience! Although we did not escape we had a blast! My husband and I took our 12 year old daughter and 18 year old son. We had no idea what we were in for...and a little reluctant, so glad we went!! At first it seemed a little unbelievable that we were going to figure out what the clues meant but as we were able to figure them out it became so exciting! We were at the very end but didn’t make it in time! Everyone putting on the event made the experience very realistic and most of all fun!!
Pete Stine
Went for my very first escape room experience yesterday. I'll admit, I felt a little skeptical that the whole thing was going to be for me.
Wow. Was I surprised. The whole thing was incredible. Within 1 minute of arriving I was into it. The theming here is so deep. The staff was great ( Thanks Dylan!) and the ambience of the "mansion" was spot on.
My group is planning to return today for another of the 3 rooms.
Walking distance from the French quarter and with lots of bars and restaurants in the vicinity, this place has it all.
If you like puzzles, mysteries, historical fiction and/or group bonding then get yourself to this place while you're in New Orleans!
Jess Lindsey
This place was INCREDIBLE!! My husband and I were looking for fun things to do while in New Orleans for a little weekend mini-vacay. We’re in our early 30’s, but don’t really like the bar and club scenes, so this was right up our alley. From the moment we stepped in, the invigorating experience began!! We did the Jazz Parlor room with 1 other couple and we made it out with seconds to spare! It was sooooo much fun. Definitely our best escape room ever and a major highlight on our trip! They had amazing decor, hidden elements, and even some costumes and items you can wear while you play to add to the ambience!
We contemplated doing Mystere’s Escape Rooms because we LOVE scary things and saw they had rooms more geared toward haunting and thriller. But, Mystere was about $100 for the both of us BC we are out of towners and don’t have LA state ids!! That was crazy. Escape my room was only $60 and was a TON of fun... Highly recommended!!
Karlee Bernal
I've gone here twice, and loved it both times! The first time was with 3 friends, and we ended up with a group of 8 total. The second time was just my husband and I, and we were the only ones in the room. It was great both ways, but being the only 2 in the room was better I think, and we did escape. So, don't be intimidated by doing it with small groups!
Noah Ho
among the best rooms I have done and I'm a 40+ veteran. I did two today and both belle and miss tree were great. excellent set design, thoughtful puzzles and good use of mechanical and electronic puzzles as opposed to only locks
Glen Neubauer
SPOILER FREE!!!
We decided we should probably break up our time in NO with at least SOME sobriety. So, my sister-in-law suggested an escape room. I am glad she did, because it was a blast!
So awesome, that we immediately booked one of the other rooms (this place has a few options) for the VERY NEXT DAY!
This was my first experience, so I cannot compare to others, but the attention to detail was INSANELY AWESOME. From the moment you walk in the door!
We did a murder mystery on the first day, and it truly showed that each of the four of us brought something different to the table. Junior, the person who was our “guide” was great! He provided a great experience and made sure we had fun!
We did more of a puzzle type room the next day, which I liked a little better because I am more analytical, and it was also AWESOME! Our “guide” was a tall guy with brown hair, and I feel bad I am not giving his name, but I just can’t remember it. it was something unique like Finneaus... I am now pretty sure it was Finneaus, and he was also fantastic!
Bottom line... we had a mix of people who were excited to try it, and people who thought it was going to be lame. Everyone got into it and left with a smile on their face!
Beau Baker
Love this place. We escaped the inventors attic and had a great time. The rooms were great and the clues made sense. Misty was our tour guide and she was very courteous and is a credit to her business. We will definitely be back again.

If you are a big fan of escape rooms, you have to check out this one. If you're brand new to escape rooms, this is a fantastic one to start with (although it may spoil you). The amount of detail they put into the puzzles, clues, story, and atmosphere is incredible. I've done two out of three of their rooms so far, and I cannot recommend them enough.
Salvador Barriga
Such a great and fun experience! The waiting room is very unique and i love how they have games and things for you to do while you wait for your room to be ready. Our host Nathaniel was fantastic and really got into character which added to the awesome experience.
Tara Fernando (AzureAnura)
Escape My Room was a really unique and fun escape room. Instead of different rooms following different themes, the entire place is the same theme but with different adventures.
Our host, Lazlo, really made the experience memorable. We only got to try one room on our trip to New Orleans but we look forward to returning the next time we're in town!
Brian Clark
AMAZING! Hands down one of the coolest escape room companies we have ever seen! My fiancé and I have played 134 rooms and this is the company we can’t stop talking about. We ended up playing all of the rooms they had to offer and our only thought after playing the first game, The Inventor’s Attic was “how soon can we book another game?” You will love this place and the amazing staff. The wonderfully delightful and charming Antoinette brightens even the darkest of rooms and is a proper game master. The sophisticated Belle DeLaporte is the definition of southern grace and hospitality and will make your soul desperate for the smooth tones that only New Orleans can offer. Junior, with his haphazard brilliants, will take you to new heights and show you a new world inside the mind of a member of the DeLaporte family. Lazlo, full of youth and kooky energy, gives you a chance to see what New Orleans celebrations are all about. The entire staff made us feel right at home in this crazy odd, yet strangely warm, home of the DeLaporte family. Seriously, the amazing people at Escape My Room were so great and made our whole trip to New Orleans worth it. We loved this place and were so happy to meet such amazing and welcoming people. We could not believe the amount of unique and mind-blowing puzzles we got to see. The rooms and waiting area are absolutely beautiful and have real antiques and oddities scattered about to make for what might just be a perfect escape room. The entire place, from the very moment you see the door, sparks intrigue and wonder that invites you to explore and see the massive amount of interesting parts of the world this company transports you to. The people who made this place are some of the most creative we have seen and the puzzles are fun and like no others you will see and the story lines keep to the New Orleans traditions as well as give the player a completely new and different experience than other escape rooms. The only thing I wish we had gotten to do was meet the owner and creator of such a fantastic place and meet a true genius. We were fascinated with the game mechanics and stories being told and couldn’t get enough. It was the one escape room we didn’t want to escape from. To any enthusiasts out there, Escape My Room is a much more memorable and fun adventure than any adventure you could take to Baton Rouge. I wholeheartedly recommend trying all of the rooms at Escape My Room! Thanks again to the entire staff. You guys made a disappointing trip turn into a treasured memory and that 100% thanks to you. We had so much fun and can’t wait to come back!
Kayla Varney
Very cool place. This was the first time I had done an escape room, but all my friends had done many in the past. They all said that it was one of the best ones they had been in. Fun story line and cool puzzles. Highly recommend!
Garoce
Great set and amazing rooms. Inventor’s attic was our favorite!
Paige Kinzel
This was by far the best escape room I e ever experienced. Midge was our guide and she was truly fantastic, didn't miss a beat with my goofy group of girls!
James Brown Jr
My Husband and I LOVED this place. The staff really go all out to make your experience a fun one. It is located in area that is under construction, but the noise actually added to the fun in our room. We did the Inventors attic and didn't win, but we enjoyed ever bit of it. Nance cracked us up when she would come over the intercom and kinda hint to us. I would recommend that place to everybody and come back again.
Collin Peters
This was my first escape room experience and it was AWESOME! I spent a few days in NOLA and this is one of the best memories I made on the entire trip. Jax was the best guide and the whole staff made this such a fun and memorable experience from the second I walked in the door. Will definitely be back to try the other rooms when I visit New Orleans again!
Ramona Couch
We did the Jazz parlor and this was by far the best escape room that I have done. Tons of clues to look for, lots of twist and turns. The host/Spirit Jax was amazing and very helpful. Definitely will do the other rooms when we come back to New Orleans.
Gina Pamaka
This is the GREATEST ESCAPE ROOM EVER! From the special entrance experience to the detailed decor to the unique room of complete darkness, you can definitely say this was worth making the time in your day, whether visiting the Big Easy or living it! Misty was a FABULOUS hostess, who only broke character when needed to clarify answers to our questions. Reasonable price in a place where everything costs.
Devin Hobdy
Everything about Escape My Room, from the wait experience to the puzzle rooms, is incredibly deliberate and immersive. Our game master Wren, was very committed to her role, and largely pleasant. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to add a less conventional component to their NOLA vacation.
Kimmy Litle
This was amazing! The first night we did the Mardi Gras room with Miss Daisy. She was a hoot and very helpful. We loved it so much we went again the next day to the jazz room with Emily. Excellent host, lots of fun and would go back again!!
Daniel Mazzei
This really was an amazing place and one of the best experiences of my vacation. We're all 23, and want to have an engaing and unique experience and this was it. It was our first escape room ever, the inventors attic really was tough, but we finished with 5 minutes left. They really put alot of thought into each room, and the challenges aren't unsolvable, but the amount of challenges and puzzles in the room made every minute exciting. I would definitely reccomend this to a group who wants to have fun and be challenged.
Nicole Galacki
This is by far the best escape room I have done! It was beautifully decorated, an intricately woven story with clues that played within the themes. The staff was in character the whole time and very personable. I only wished some of the NJ / NY escape rooms put in this much effort! A must do if you visit New Orleans !
Heather Assavedo
My family and i did the Inventors attic. Although i have done other escape rooms this one pulls you into the theme as soon as you walk in. Our guide phineas was amazing also! We will definitely be back to try the other rooms. :)
Kimberly Duskas
Our first time doing an escape room. There were 6 in our group and we did The Jazz Room. We had a few laughs along the way, along with frustrations. We didn't have a reservation and they fit us in on a rainy Wednesday night. Highly recommend!
CeeCee Vandiver
My group has done more than 30+ escape rooms and Escape My Room delivers *THE BEST* overall experience we have encountered. Escape My Room is fully immersive from the moment you walk in the front door, with detailed decor, production elements, and engaging puzzles that keep you entertained even before your scheduled game begins. Our game master, Wren, was a wonderful hostess who provided thoughtful (challenging, not too hand-holdy) hints to help us succeed. If we ever find ourselves back in New Orleans, the remaining Escape My Room rooms are definitely on our to-do list.
Katherine Yan
Having done probably 15+ escape rooms across the country, I can say this was one of the better escape room experiences I’ve had.
Upon entering the building, the rustic “escape room” vibe immediately becomes apparent. The walls are lined with old artifacts, paintings, and portraits. Many things seem to have the wear and tear of long term use that gives the entire building an old mansiony vibe.
The lobby itself has little puzzles you can work on to solve while waiting for your room, some of which have already been solved by others and some that are still unsolved. There’s 3 rooms to explore and look at things so you don’t get bored.
The game master was also amazing and added to the realistic mansiony feel of the place. He stayed entirely in character as he was explaining the background story for our room and the rules of the game.
The room itself was very well designed and executed. The puzzles were clean and straightforward despite being difficult to solve at times. Anything confusing about the room is cleared up with instructions you can find around the room. The clues were true to the theme of the room and were exciting to solve.
Overall, would highly, highly recommend this escape room for novices and more experienced escape room goers alike. Everything about the place has been expertly designed and thought out to ensure the best experience possible. Will definitely be back to try out their other rooms!
Amanda Cornelius
SO GOOD! This experience did not let us down! The decor is amazing and the details are on point. It is even better in person than in the photos. Our host Agnes was awesome, we will definitely be back! 10 gold stars!
Damien Christopher
Had a great time here. The place is very well done and even the entrance has a fun twist and "puzzle". Did the Jazz Parlor, very innovative puzzles and a fun story. I loved that you interacted with the room more than just open locks. This made the solo part of my Mardi Gras trip lots of fun! The staff were very engaging, talkative, and fun!
Paul Albert Merkt
By far the best escape room I have done (have escaped 6 rooms only in other cities) since the moment you step in this place if full of surprises. I highly recommend it, the inventor's Attic was great!, we will only be in the city for 3 days and today we are coming back to do another room!
Tommy & Teri Thurman
My family and I had such a wonderful time! It was our first time experiencing something like this. It was so enjoyable and Nathanial made the experience even more enjoyable with his humor, wit and staying in the character of the period. My ONLY regret is we did not solve the mystery before time ran out. My suggestion to others would be not to be too stubborn and ask for a hint or two.
Mercedes Darby
OMG I so LOVED this place literally from beginning to end, Misty was absolutely amazing and stayed in character she was also very helpful. nice, polite and curtious. The experience from beginning to end was amazing from the first room you enter being an escape room, to getting to dress up for your room, even solving it it was me and my groups first time going I went for my birthday (Dec 8th)and we solved our room, We escaped with 10secs left. This was a very thrilling experience and I will be back with more family and friends 😁❤️
Maggie Olivier
What an exciting hour of clues and puzzles! Our group has decided we need to go back for the other room. We escaped in the nick of time. Team work is key, and we were glad to have a full group of 8 to work on different puzzles at different times. The room felt authentic to the time period of the story. Highly enjoyable!!!
Casey Daugherty
Absolutely amazing time and great experience. This is one of the best escape rooms we've ever done and we've done quite a lot. Super detail oriented and the rooms were decorated with obvious care. Puzzles were hard but solvable. Blown away. Thanks guys!
Stephanie Griffin
What a wonderful experience! Jax was an amazing host and set the tone for the whole run. The rooms and puzzle were very detailed and always surprising. We will definitely be coming back as soon as we can!
Sarah Hildebrand
What a fun experience! This was my first Escape room and I thoroughly enjoyed it! Two people in my group were escape room veterans and even they agreed that this place is excellent! We did the imagineers attic and I would recommend it!
Rosi Muir
This venue is absolutely in my top 3 worldwide. The attention to details and immersive nature of the rooms is impeccable and you will have an amazing time here. Misty was our host for the evening when we did The Inventors Attic, she was excellent and stepped in when we needed her :) thank you for a great experience!
Nadia Graham
We had so much fun at this place!. It's not a mindless activity at all. Solving the mystery that was assigned to us was very challenging and exciting. The placement of the clues were very well thought out and clever. We worked as a team of four and solved the mystery with eight minutes left. Can't wait to go back to solve different mystery! Highly recommend!!!!
Rachael Bissell
This was tremendously fun! From the moment upon arrival to the photo finish! Escape My Room has really paid attention to detail and it has created quite the immersive experience. My group of 6 did the Jazz Parlor room yesterday and it was SO.MUCH.FUN!
The greeter was in character the whole time and had a great accent. This, combined with the decor, the clues, and the story line, really created a unique and unforgettable experience. It was such cool activity - very different from a usual Wednesday night and a great change of pace.
I don't want to give anything away so I won't go into details of the room. Once we arrived and our hour long timer began, it took my group a few minutes to gather our thoughts and start collecting clues. There are so many things to look at! But the actual hunting around for clues and piecing things together was great. I guess we went a little out of order than "usual" but honestly, I didn't really notice. There is no right or wrong way to solve the puzzle!
After we escaped we were taken to the photo finish room where they snap a photo of your team as a fun keepsake. Photos are then posted on their social media for you to find.
I would highly recommend this Escape Room over any others in the city! I've been to others but none were as fun or as story-immersive as this one. I can't wait to try out their other rooms!
Zero Cool
By far one of the BEST escape rooms I've ever been to!! I've been to over 40 escape rooms, most of which were in Europe. American escape rooms are pretty lame compared to the European scene, but this one made my top 5 and has changed my mind. We did the Jazz room and Lazlow was a great host. Bravo.
Ariadne Blayde
So awesome! We've done 3 of their rooms now, and the experience is always great. The staff are fun and helpful, and the rooms are very well-designed with great attention to detail and challenging puzzles. Highly recommend!
Henriette Hertz-Pedersen
Great fun in a very period setting. Don't be discouraged by the building works and noise outside, the atmosphere and experience inside is unaffected by this.
The puzzles are fun and challenging. Although 6-7 people is probably gonna get a bit cramped in some of the rooms (Inventors attic).
Julian Brangold
This place is an experience! I’ve done more than 30 escape rooms and this one is outstandingly fun and well built. The whole thing is great, absolutely recommend. Also Jax (our game master) made it so much more special, definitely a key part of the game. If you go to New Orleans, you HAVE to check it out!
Kerry Stessel
We absolutely loved the Jazz Parlor and barely escaped. The room was awesome and the decor is amazing. We are going back soon to do the Inventor's Attic. Come join us escape room enthusiasts at Escape Room Club on Facebook. Join the fun!
Brittany Fey
We really enjoyed the escape my room. There was not a boring moment throughout whole time. The puzzle were hard, but can be solved. It's a fun event all a round. The staff was friendly and very helpful.
Zach
Emily, the guide, was extremely sociable friendly and helpful. The escape room was very interesting, fun and challenging. There are four rooms to choose from. The Ambiance was very old style and extremely cool. I would highly recommend coming to do this escape room in New Orleans
Andrew Larimer
I've been to a few Escape Rooms in various cities, and Escape My Room has been the best. It immerses you in a narrative and gives you lots of fun physical puzzles to solve. There's the primary puzzle you need to solve to escape, and a bonus puzzle if you get through that early, so there's plenty of good puzzle awaiting you! I can't wait for their next room!
Dan Burnett
2nd best escape room we've ever done; it was SO good. The puzzles were difficult, but logical. Intuitive, but technical. Jax did a great job setting the scene, and going through his supporting role in character. He was helpful without giving anything away, and his part really added to the experience.
Sam Lamanna
The best escape room I have ever been to. It totally enveloped us in the story the very moment you open the door. It was The Best time we had in New Orleans. We could not stop talking about how amazing it was. My wife who hates then and did not want to go, loved it and said. This is how they all should be. We did the inventors room.
Ben S
I've been to multiple escape rooms and this was, by far, the most inventive and fun as far as the puzzles. High quality, friendly team, we went back the next day to do another room just because we had so much fun with the first!
Laura Carmer
Oh my gosh amazing! I'm from Chicago and the ones there are fun no doubt but this is a whole 'nother level. They are so fun and challenging. The staff is amazing. Me and my girls did the Jazz Parlor and it was so intricate from the time we walked through the door of the building until we left. Just phenomenal! You have to go do one of these rooms. Warnings: your brain might hurt after lol also right now there is construction so it looks a little creepy from the outside but I could not recommend it enough.
Kacy Veillon
Best escape room I’ve ever been to! Totally immersive from the start. The guides played the part and made it seem like you were really a part of it. The room was beautifully and cleverly crafted, and the puzzles were fun! 100% would escape again. 😁 …
Sylvia Mobley
My sisters and I had so much fun!! We did the smugglers den, even though it was completely dark we worked together to escape. Lazalo and Emily were awesome!!!
Amanda Umfleet
This was so fun! Challenging and exciting! Wren was our wonderful guide, she made the experience amazing! We escaped!!! They have 4 different "rooms" I would totally go back! I would ask for Wren in my reservations! You wont regret it!
William Garrison
Amazing experience, best escape room I’ve done. The host Belle was lively and helpful, and the environment and puzzles were perfect. Great fun for our group of 8.
kyle studzinski
By far the coolest escape room I've been to yet. Clues and riddles were quite unique. Very cool technology used and the host was awesome. From the second you walk in the door to the minute you leave. One qestionsble clue but great experience. Talked about for quite some time.
Jacqui Nelson
This was my first experience with an escape room. It was a very entertaining way to spend an evening. I had a lot of fun solving all of the puzzles with my friends. I got a group of five of my friends and we got to do it together. It was cool how we got to touch everything and how it had a lot of New Orleans related things in it. It was pretty challenging and even though we didn't escape (we were sooo close) it was lots of fun. They even took the time afterwards to tell us the piece of the puzzle we were missing at the end.
Garin Danner
Very, very fun experience. Well designed and thought-out. My whole family, included 13 and 15 year old kids, had an absolute blast! Highly recommended.
Keira M
Wonderful escape room. The setup and story is very well thought out. All of the clues made sense and were not unreasonably hard to find. The lady running our escape room, Wren, was very helpful but made sure not to give anything away. The way you get into the building is very clever (I don’t want to give anything away)
Courtney Gardner
Had an absolute blast, the partners they had us paired with were wonderful and so helpful it was a lot of fun. Lazlo was so helpful and an amazing hostest, so friendly and funny. The first escape room we made it out of and it was so neat and true to character. Beautiful little place. Thanks for having us!
Taryn Murphy
My boyfriend and I were hesitant at first because the cost was more than we were used to paying for other escape rooms but oh boy were we blown away! They really do give the full experience!!! Could not recommend this place more, absolutely amazing!
Joey Robinson
The wife and I experienced our first puzzle room last weekend during a short getaway to New Orleans. We choose this venue based on ratings and we were not disappointed in the least!
Nathaniel was an excellent host and really made us feel like we were part of a production rather than simply solving a series of puzzles.
We chose the Mardi Gras room, and without too much detail I'll sum it up by saying it was a series of well planned, intricate puzzles that came together for a fun and addicting experience!
Michael Nguyen
Not much I can comment on here. I visited Escape My Room while on vacation in New Orleans and found not only the puzzle mechanics of the room mentally challenging, but also the storytelling and design to be very unique. Would highly recommend it for anyone considering a visit.
josephine monaghan
Our family of four had such a wonderfully novel experience in the Mardi Gras Room this morning that we promptly reserved another appointment to the Escape My Room for the same evening and for the following day! This second experience in the Inventor's Attic was a successful escape, but it was definitely a much more difficult mystery than our initial attempt in the Mardi Gras Room. If you're methodical, have a keen sense of logic, and love solving puzzles, you'd love these rooms! For a family of four, going to two rooms today (and to the third room tomorrow), it quickly became a bit pricey, but it's definitely worth it! Our family will remember this vacation as one of the best because of how much we enjoyed this experience! Nathaniel, our host for the Mardi Gras Room, was the consummate entertainer and had the perfect personality for this dramatic venue. Robert was more serious and equally wonderful as our host. The entire setup with antiquities and well designed clues made it so fantastic! Bravo!
The only thing that is recommended is that if your party has four people or more, is to opt NOT to share because otherwise you might be paired up with people you don't like, who monopolizes all the clues, and ruins your fun, as was the case for our third room, the Jazz Parlor. The joy of escaping this room in record breaking time was diminished by the lack of collaboration and cohesiveness between our three groups. Definitely opt to be by yourselves if you already have four people in your group!
Otherwise, everything was super, fantastic, great, awesome, the best! We heard that there will be a fourth room! We are already making plans for a return visit next year!!
Shawn Elisha Simmons
When you go into Escape My Room, you are not only going into a brilliantly designed escape room, but also going back in time into a bygone era, one filled with antiques, intricate details, and fully in character gamemasters. The two games I have done here, Jazz Parlour and Inventor's Attic, were both beyond immersive games filled with brilliant set design, engaged and tactile puzzling, and immersive storylines. The lobby, just the lobby, is far more detailed than most escape rooms, even reasonably good ones. Before your mission, you may explore little eccentricities in three cozy rooms each invoking the spirit of the city brilliantly. In addition, due to an unfortunate incident involving being prepared with some particularly rowdy and unruly children, we were compensated with a free game, a gesture of kindness uncommon among the escape room industry. If you are in the area, visit Escape My Room. You will experience beyond authentic, brilliant escape room for all levels of experience.
Angela Garrison
We had so much fun...me and my fiancee did smuggler's den. We almost finished, if we just had about 5 more minutes. The hostess Penny was great. We will be returning soon to try another room.
Antonio Cuny
This was the most fun I've had in a long time! Read up when you go (you should go), have a team strategy (someone focus on puzzles, someone gather data, someone to manage the data and keep things organized - but not be the boss). Remember that a lot of what you see are NOT clues; it's up to you to figure out which are. Expect a challenge and you won't be overwhelmed. We got into it and solved it... can you? This place went all out, strange stuff and lots of period decor. Highly recommended!
Stephanie Meehan
Have a super fun time here. A really well designed escape room with lots of fun detail in the room. It was great for team building and was also fun as a first time visitor to New Orleans. Highly recommend!
Dustin Perez
Easily the best escape room experience ever (solved or otherwise). Experience begins the moment you enter reception. The attention to detail is phenomenal. Our host, Misty was awesome too- funny and witty!
John P
This escape room experience was terrific. We all played Sherlock Holmes! My group enjoyed it immensely. The rooms were really well decorated and the story the hostess told us was interesting. You will learn a little about New Orleans and you will be amazed at how fast the time goes by. This is not a scary experience, ie nothing will jump out at you and we all felt very safe. It is near the Superdome and there was free parking. We will be back to play the next room they open.
Tariq
This was my first escape room experience and we loved it! The detail in place was great and adding clothes at the beginning was a cool idea and we all felt in character with the game. Highly recommend it to everyone. And also WE ESCAPED so get on our level! :D
Jeff Padgett
For my first try at an escape room, my daughter and I picked the Smuggler's room which was in complete darkness. We completed it with a few "hints" and it was awesome. I would highly suggest giving this place a try. (parking is around the other side of the block too).
Nick Cordell
First off, Jax (with a x) was a phenomenal host and made the experience one of the best I have ever had in an escape room. We did the inventors attic and had seven people in the group. Was a little tight and had people standing off to the side sometimes. A group of 4 or 5 would be perfect for this room. 5/5, would be haunted by a friendly ghost again.
Megan Bronson
Very clever and thoroughly engaging room. For my first time, I thought everything was perfect from the host to the costume pieces to the puzzles. Kept discussing our escape for the rest of the weekend. Can't wait to go again.
Laura Stokley
From the minute you walk in it’s like living in an I spy riddle book. There are mysteries at every turn and puzzles to uncover and solve, even in the entry room! The puzzles were challenging and the story was cohesive throughout. Moving walls and spinning furniture with secret drawers and cabinets. I will definitely be coming back every chance I get.
Allison Light
Great set, interesting puzzles, and wonderful acting. I've done 5 escape rooms before and this has been my favorite. They also have bonus puzzles in the rooms if you want an extra challenge.
Marcus Webster
Did the Jazz Parlor with a party of 2, with little escape room experience. The whole experience from start to finish will leave you captivated and engaged. The staff are incredible and so helpful. From the moment you walk through the door, you will not be disappointed. A MUST DO IN NOLA!!!
Cindy Santiago
From the beginning, it was awesome. Our guide Misty was so nice and into it, made it fell so cool and fun. Cool puzzles and things! Definitely would go to do the others (we did inventors attic)
Claire Eskind
This is truly one of the funnest experiences in New Orleans. The staff is wonderful, and I'm sure they were cracking up watching our group trying to figure things out. If you like challenges, puzzles, and themes this is a great place for you.
Ryan Moore
Nathaniel was a great host! We did the smuggler's den. It was so much fun! Also, the decor of DeLaporte Museum was great. I felt like I stepped back in time. This place is magical and mysterious and a perfect fit for New Orleans.
Matt Brighton
My wife and I decided to take a break from our New Orleans experience and try an escape room. We did two during our stay and these were our first two. I don't have a basis for comparison, but I will say that these were very well-run and they really did try to make it an experience. Unfortunately, we failed to complete either room, but we were a lot closer the second time around. If you want to take a break from the bars and general "hoopla" of New Orleans, give this place a try - they really do make it worthwhile and it's entertaining. I'd go again!
Matthew Swoboda
If you like role playing in your escape room, this is the place for you. We failed to escape (our first failure) due to being too prideful but this place was an absolute delight and our game master was great. Will definitely be back. Failure was never so fun. Thanks for the good time.

This is my second time going to Escape My Room. The first time was with my parents, and this time with a group of 7 for a birthday.
They had moved to the bigger location since my first time, and it has a better feel now when entering the building than before since it looks like you're walking into an antique perfume shop. They have more rooms now, so next time I will be asking for a different room for a new experience.
I'm really impressed with the puzzles complexity and how well they used sensors and switches to make things happen when you've solved a puzzle. It startled a few of us when a drawer popped open after playing a certain instrument.
I like how they've improved on giving out clues; at the old place, a person used to give clues out over a speaker, which I now realize it takes you away from the experience. They now give clues out through an old monitor, which makes it feel more like another puzzle and adds to the experience.
We ended up escaping this time, and I think it helps if everyone talks as they search the room, and be open about all ideas.
I will definitely be going back!
Kayla Davis
Super fun! I went with a group of 4 and we had a great time at Art Heist and Prison Break. I liked Art Heist better, but Prison Break is more difficult. They’re all super challenging. Dante is the best game guide!
Riley Trost
So cool! The puzzles are challenging and fun to piece together. The jazz room is so elaborate and there are many hidden surprises. Definitely would recommend!
Orin Porter
By far one the best experiences I've ever had. It was very immersive and challenging. There was never a dull moment and the clues kept us on our toes. The staff was great as well. Next time I'm NOLA, I will definitely be back!
Christopher Morgan
Took a group of 4 to Escape My Room, had a great time! Well done experience, helpful host, explanations and puzzles were fun. We'd go again in a heartbeat.
Ashley Jones
My family and I did many escape rooms and this one was very fun and challenging. Jax was in character and was amazing help. From the moment we walked in until the last clue solved it was a thrill. Will be coming back again.
Delaney Lapre
Quirky and immersive! I loved it. The room was well thought out and the puzzles good. They even had a little bonus for us at the end!! (Im not telling!) The staff never broke character once, and it made the experience all the more tantalizing!!
Vic Whitten
Imagine this: you walk into a room and you have to escape. With Wren as our guide, my team of experienced investigators navigated our way through multiple quizzes, puzzles, and friendship bonding experiences as we solved the mystery of the inventors attic.
Wren did a fantastic job of giving us the lay of the land and catching us right up to where the investigation currently stood. The atmosphere of New Orleans mystery was meticulously crafted, and every element of the experience added to the overall vibe of mystery and excitement.
Definitely a fun way to spend an hour in New Orleans!
Kevin Nguyen
Generally good room.. basic, but fun puzzles.
Ashley Fletcher
AMAZING time at this escape room. We did the Mardi Gras room. From the time you walk in until you leave, you are deeply engaged in this room. I definitely felt like a total moron, but we laughed until we almost wet our pants! Belle did a great job keeping her composure, although I think we were probably her favorite trio of the day 😉😉 …
Jason Sharples
This was our first time doing an escape room and the experience was all round excellent, from Midge as our guide to the actual room itself; challenging without being silly. We all loved it.
Adriana Franco
From the time you walk in, it becomes an adventure.
We were a tad late and Wren still treated us as if we were on time. Wren was absolutely amazing and was available when we had any questions. Not only that but amongst our silly behavior she stayed in character the entire time, only making the experience so much more better!
We came for my sisters birthday and she left with the biggest smile on her face. Smugglers den was an absolute blast and WE BEAT IT! Thank you to everyone at escape my room but especially Wren for just being awesome the entire time. Definitely worth the bucks you pay!
Rhonda Pittman
Great family activity!!! This is the second breakout room venue that I have visited and this one has proven to be the most fun. The rooms are decorated relating to the theme from check-in to check-out. Rose was a wonderful hostess with a fun and informative personality. We will definitely be back to do the 2nd room.
Ruth Harries
A ton of fun, from entering the building to escaping! Plan to arrive early - you won't be bored.
Six us completed Inventor's Attic. (We were given a few extra minutes because of a technical issue.) It was intricate and immersive with a fun theme and backstory. With six people, some of us ran out of things to do near the end, but some of us had either completed escape rooms before or were experienced with the types of puzzles we encountered - YMMV.
Duncan Bass
I was skeptical going in, but I absolutely loved the Escape My Room experience! It's more than just a simple game, it's an immersive experience fun for families or friends. There are multiple rooms/puzzles to solve and I would jump at the opportunity to escape another room!
Carl Behr
We chose the room based on the scenario and didn't realize we had chosen one of their more difficult rooms.
We still had a really fun time. The physical object releases were a bit delayed which caused some frustration but their overall setup and theme is outstanding.

This was my second escape room, but wow it was amazing. I had so much fun, it was EXTREMELY well put together and they really set you up for the atmosphere. I highly recommend going with a group of friends to check it out.
Taylor J
Great room and puzzles, lots of fun! We did smugglers den, it was very interesting! You gotta try it! Nathaniel was awesome as well! Very helpful, knowledgeable, and a great host.
Joshua Carroll
Second escape room I've done and this one has a much more intimate feel to it. From the moment you arrive, you are thrust into the mind of an old timey investigator, who's main goal is to solve the murder of a DeLaporte family member. The room was excellently constructed to be both intuitive and fun. Finneus, our guide, was hilarious and never broke character.
Stacy Metcalf
best escape room I've ever been to. inventors attic was AMAZING and the whole thing is so immersive from right when you walk in. Wren is fantastic and i wish my stay in NOLA was longer so we could come back and do all the different rooms. INCREDIBLE
Erica Carrington
So much attention is paid to detail. From the time you walk into the lobby to the photograph at the end you are immersed in a truly authentic experience. Our guide Phineas was amazing. I will definitely do this again and highly recommend it.
Jerry Schaffer
Loved it! Junior was our assistant and he did a fabulous job of staying in character and making it fun and mysterious. Luckily we escaped with a few minutes remaining. This is one of the best escape rooms around.
Jasmine W
Omg my wife and I had the best time here! Antoinette was a wonderful and gracious host and was super helpful. Thanks for all the fun and laughs, would love to try more rooms when we are back in New Orleans again!
Crystal S.
We had a really good time. My husband and I did an escape and there was another couple who was there and together we solved the inventer’s attic. It was challenging, but not impossible. It was really fun and we plan on going back for our anniversary.
Joe Stowell
Really cool atmosphere and attention to detail! Our host, Jax, was very enthusiastic and in character. We’ve done quite a few escape rooms and this was one of our favorites! Such a neat place.
Renee Caughman
Amazing experience. This is not your average escape room. It's not just a bunch of boxes to find the combination to for sure. We had a great time and will be back.
Corie Hebert
My group of 7 friends visited Escape My Room to celebrate one friend's birthday. We had a blast! I'm already making plans to visit again and bring family along for the fun.
Dave
Very fun experience for my first time, Robert was a cool cat and my friends and I were able to complete the room with only seconds left. Also the little bonus puzzle before starting the actual room is fun as well
Jeremiah Burkhardt
Awesome experience. I really can't say much else except that our group had so much fun and it was a great team building exercise. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who enjoys a good murder mystery or similar type puzzles.
Courtney Buzbee
6 adults together in a room trying to do a puzzle, you think boring right?! No way, it was exhilarating and entertaining. We all found different clues to get us to the finish just in time. You must think outside the box and be ready for some mind games. You should go and try it. You won't regret it!!!
Kathrine Kruse
Super exciting and it really draws you into the story! I’m visiting New Orleans for a week and just had to go again and do another room, it was so much fun! Junior was great at staying in character and really made it feel real, Lazlo was very helpful and his hints helped while not giving too much away. Definitely looking forward to going again when I’m in New Orleans again!
Yufan Lin
After completing and becoming hooked on these games in another city I was passing by, I jumped at the opportunity to test my wits again in New Orleans, this time with two other friends. The puzzles and overall atmosphere of the venue were so thought out that we went twice in our short 3 day stay in NOLA, savoring the chance to partake in both the Jazz Room and the Mardi Gras Study. We were fortunate 'to escape both, but not without a few pointers from our guide.
Compared to other Escape the Room type venues, this one was exquisitely cohesive, and compliments well the history and culture of New Orleans. The rooms were challenging, but fair. I would recommend this to anybody who likes to flex their brain and cooperate with others in teams.
Much thanks to the perfect guide, Nathaniel.
Julie Goodwin
Great experience! Lots of fun and really challenging. Perfect for group team building activity.
Matt Taulton
From the time you walk in, until the time you leave this place immerses you in a great experience. The actors/guides are fun and helpful when needed. The puzzles in the Mardi Gras Study were challenging but solvable. For an hour of fun, I highly recommend My Escape Room.
Robert Sirks
Fantastic. Being my first Escape Room and hearing a lot from others who've been in other Escape Rooms, I was prepared for a simple room with shallow puzzles, but man was I wrong. Although my party was hung up on a riddle early on, we escaped with a few minutes to spare. We were let back in to search for more and it turns out we missed a lot! Would Escape again!
Jessica W
Absolutely great! We went there one day for the Jazz room and loved it so much that we booked another room (inventor's attic) the next day!
Sadly, we didn't get our picture for the second one.
Joni Meaux
HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!! This was a great experience from the moment we opened the door into the perfume shop (we had a good laugh there) Belle was amazing, she puts great enthusiasm into her role there! LOVE IT!!!!!!
Alex von Hardberger
TLDR: This is not a cookie-cutter experience. The owner/creator has invented something entirely new and wrapped it in the mystique that New Orleans naturally carries. The sheer originality of Escape My Room is impressive beyond words. Even if you have been to a similar Room-Puzzle in another city, what you will find here is something entirely its own and in an incredible way.
I had no idea what to expect from this experience. I have heard from friends who've gone to places like this in other cities, and all I had been told was, "It's like that old game Myst, but live-action." That in and of itself was enough to interest me, but the description doesn't do it justice. In my wildest dreams I did not expect Escape My Room to be as overwhelmingly awesome as it is.
I was on a trip to New Orleans with a few friends, and we were meeting a few more friends while we were in town. The entire plan for the 3 days while we were in the city consisted of going to amazing restaurants and bars. While there is nothing wrong with a trip filled with good food and drinks, I wanted to do at least one thing that broke the mold. Whether that be a museum, or a live show, or something else. What I settled on was Escape My Room. Out of my seven friends on the trip, only 4 or 5 were really interested in going with me, but the outliers begrudgingly came along with the group. Within five minutes of being locked in the room, everyone (outliers included) were absolutely enthralled.
I would love to speak about the Room and what made it so mind-blowing specifically, but I don't want to ruin any surprises for other first-timers. Suffice it to say, from the moment you walk in the front door of the business, before you even set foot in the Room, the ambiance is set and the fun begins.
I can, without any reservations, say that Escape My Room was one of the highlights of our trip, and it was unlike anything I've ever done. I will finish my review by just listing a few spoiler-free tid-bits about our time there:
-We chose to do the "Jazz Parlor" and had an amazing time, but I've actually been told that the "Mardis Gras Room" was the first room they opened and is an even better experience (since they've had more time to streamline it). I can't wait to make another trip down, and I will definitely be trying out the "Mardis Gras Room."
-We were able to escape the room, but only just barely before time ran out. There was another bonus puzzle that we had started solving but did not get close to really figuring out. In other words, there is replayability even if you want to go to the same room a second time.
-As I said above, there was more than one person who was hesitant (to say the least) about spending their time and money in New Orleans doing a live-action-mystery-puzzle. Not only did they end of having a great time, but one of those people was by far the most engrossed in solving the puzzle by the time that our hour was drawing to a close. So, if you have some friends who are on the fence, drag them along anyway and watch them totally lose themselves trying to solve the mystery.
FINAL NOTE: We had one person in our group who is very claustrophobic. She made it through just fine. If you or someone you know is thinking about going but claustrophobia is an issue, just remember that the room is bigger than you might expect at first glance, and there is a big red button by the door that you can ring to be let out. By no means are you truly "trapped" in the room.
Chris
While my group only tried the Mardi Gras Study room, absolutely everyone was brimming with excitement to come back and try the Jazz Parlor on a second go round. Truly in-depth decor, wonderful staff, and engaging puzzle design made for an absolutely satisfying experience for all involved. For anyone who loves solving a good mystery, I could not recommend this location more. Superb!
Kelly C
This was my first experience at an escape room. I was very pleasantly pleased. It was much than I imagined it would be. Staff was extremely friendly. Always offered assistance when needed. It was challenging and very enjoyable. Highly recommend.
Leslie Howard
AMAZING EXPERIENCE!!!!! I came here on yesterday for my birthday, with a group of 14. It was everyone's first time. We did the Jazz Parlor!!! We booked both rooms of the Jazz Parlor. We laughed the entire time. It was sooooo fun!!!! Everyone was helpful! The customes were a plus!! We will be going back. Everyone was in detective mode. They put sooo much thought into the riddles and puzzles you can't help but be amazed. I strongly encourage, and I can't stress it enough that it is a MUST that you go and have this lifetime experience at ESCAPE MY ROOM.
Emma Delatte
Awesome time. Instantly immersed when you walk in. Staff was great, especially our game masters (Junior and Belle).
Would recommend and can't wait to come back and play the other rooms!
Milana A
Man, what a fantastic place. I came here for my birthday last week; we tried the Mardi Gras Study. It was my first time trying an escape room, so I didn't know what to expect. The game master was helpful and informative; we ended being one clue away from winning. Nonetheless it's an experience I won't forget. Cleanly, fun and challenging!
Tina McCuller
The idea is great and set up isn't bad but we were adults and were paired with 4 or 5 teenage/college age girls. They were loud and monopolized the game and clues. It was a complete waste of $60 for us. I don't recommend going unless you have a group of people so you don't have to share the room. Very disappointed!!
Arden Figueiredo
If you're in to the odd, bizarre, curious this is the perfect escape the room for you. So I heard about this place after getting into a great conversation with the owner of a roadside attraction oddities museum in Abita Springs LA called The Abita Mystery House. The owner of that attraction is father to the owner of this Escape My Room and it is PERFECT!!! So much crazy stuff to see and so many fun puzzles to solve. We had the best time!
Branimira Ivanova
I can write " I loved it" over and over until I use up the comment space, because I did love it that much. We escaped the Mardi Gras room plus all extra puzzles. The ambiance, the story line and puzzles are super entertaining, and the MC was the coolest. I want to go back and escape all the other rooms.
Grace Gilpin
We love midge!! very helpful and fun, she stayed in character and gave the perfect amount of clues with the perfect amount of helpfulness without being too obvious. A very immersive experience! wish we had put the stuffed horse in our picture though
Betsy McIntosh
This escape room was a fantastic team-building exercise while in NOLA for a conference. The Jazz Room was a multifaceted mystery with plenty of challenges to keep you busy for the whole hour! I highly recommend going!
Robert Schwenck
We did the Mardis Gras room. It was challenging, especially having 3 sub-12-year-old children in our group of 5. Our hostess Wren was very helpful--but not too much so. We managed to escape with 2 minutes to spare and the kids are already ready to go for another one.
Alexandra Hoffpauir
From the moment you walk in they have you on your toes, warming you up to play. The detail they put into just the waiting room alone was great, and so was the Mardi Gras Study. The clues made sense but we’re still challenging to figure out. Wren made our experience so much fun!! You’ll understand why they are rated so well when you go!
Einav Cohen
This place is incredible! Beautiful seamless design, the Jazz room is amazing and we're definitely coming back to the Marci Gras one!! And the lovely Miss K who guided us was lovely and entertaining. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!
Graeme Rock
By far the best Escape Room I have been to so far. It looked cool, felt super satisfying, and was fun from the moment we stepped in.
I recommend coming 20 minutes prior if you want to have a chuck of fun.
Matthew Mitchell
My favorite escape room! Our group of 6 did the Mardi Gras Study this week and had a blast, barely escaping at the last moment. It was larger and more immersive than previous escape rooms I've done. Color me impressed!
Ka Chambers
We had such a lovely time. Immersive from the moment we walked in the door to our return to the magnolia scented street. I only wish we had been early enough to enjoy the pregame puzzles. This was a blast!
John Eaton
Really fun! Hadn't done an escape room before! It was challenging but all the puzzles made sense and had a logic to them and the solutions were interesting.
Paige Entwisle
Went with a group of 40 for a work outing. It was an absolutely amazing experience. The hosts were funny, the puzzles were fun (and hard) and the rooms were beautiful. Highly reccomend!!!!
Darren Jones
me and family have done many escape rooms and I would like to say this is one of my favorite. Our guide Jax was very kind and funny and stayed in character the whole time. We will be returning.
Torra Watson
We loved the experience so much fun working together as team . the venture of finding the clues and solving the puzzle got our blood pumping with excitement which makes it feel so rewarding. we will definitely be doing it again .
Terri “Sophlady007” P
My daughter and I first time, and we had a great experience! Plan to go back again soon. The staff was really nice. The decor in each space was awesome. Very Fun!
Sam Tucker
Super submersive experience! The secret entrance to the business is amazing and you feel immersed in the "Delaporte family home" from the start. Great stories and mechanisms in the rooms. Will definitely be back for a different room the next time I am in New Orleans. Make sure to use the bathroom and keep track of your time before it runs out!!!
Ian Vanderhorst
Best Escape Room we've ever been to! Really clever and innovative clues. Great atmosphere. Charismatic crew. Not just a series of locks. Really fun.
ANGEL CRAY
This is an exceptional escape room experience, a theatrical and detailed mystery sucking you in the minute you walk in!! Misty was a great hostess, and helped immerse us into the mystery! Highly recommend!!
Jonathan
Fantastic experience despite being in the dark for most of the game!! My group finished with thirty seconds on the clock but it was one of the more difficult rooms so I would say we made it out with satisfactory time.
Emily Cassidy
Great puzzles, fabulous experience! I have been to an Escape Room in Washington DC is this one is far superior... the staff set the mood and the ambience is just incredible.
Jerimiah Easley
Absolutely great. From the costumes they let you wear if you want to the mini games in the lobby, everything was well thought out and very inviting. We loved it.
JO
Amazing!!! My favorite escape room experience!! It is such a immersive experience as soon as you walk into the door. Thank you, Antoinette!
B Michael Ferweda
The DeLaporte Family Museum at Escape My Room is a definitive must do on New Orleans. As a local business owner, I am now recommending the Jazz room to all my guests at The Chartres Street Cottage. An absolute hoot, we escaped with 30 seconds to spare.
Mary Arnett
We absolutely loved this location. I’ve done 10+ escape rooms and this location was most definitely my favorite. This location was so committed and immersed in its local story. I absolutely loved it and would recommend it to anybody visiting New Orleans.
Angela Hardwick-Etheridge
Good fun for family and friends! Even our teen got into it. The Mardi Gras Study was cleverly laid out and was a good room for us as escape room novices Will definitely try the other room on our next visit to NOLA.
a greenstein
I play many escape rooms and can tell you this one is AWESOME..
For me, it's all about the theming...the acting...the staff..I won't give any spoilers...but this isn't your usual... "walk in...see a desk host...sign a waiver" kind of experience.. They make it much more immersive and for me that STANDS OUT--
Precious Diamonds Mentoring Jamye Rooks
We started out our New Year with the Smugglers Den! We had a great time and we escaped! Our guide was Tree and she was amazing! I would greatly recommend this place!
mjmfunk
Great time! We escaped the jazz room which is great for first time escape room customers. Misty was our host and was fantastic! Definitely want to come back
Hila Fogel-Yaari
So much fun and so well done! We were six, which was a great number. The place allows up to 8 people, but the room may be too crowded with more people.
Ashley Demps
This place was too much fun lol and we didn't even succeed in escaping. But the story, set up, and game master were great. It was everyone in my groups first time and we all enjoyed it.
Kelly Couch
Went with a group from work, had a fantastic experience. The clues depend on a variety of knowledge/experiences so having a diverse group was valuable. Highly recommend, especially for a rainy day in New Orleans.
Alon Robinson
Extremely fun! Very immersive experience. The puzzles and clues were challenging but not to the point where you are mad you paid for it. They have clothes you can dress up in as well.
Megan Jackson
A lot of nice touches. My parents had never been to an escape room. Now that's all they talk about. :) Penny really got into character which made it even more fun.
Jessica White
From the moment you arrive this place keeps you on your toes! Jax was the best host & we enjoyed how much he put into making sure our experience was top notch! Can’t wait to go back!! Hands down the best escape room I’ve experienced!!! #jazzparlor
Derek Denz (Derek Denz)
Went with friends to the Mardi Gras Study escape room. Fun and engaging atmosphere -- Misty was our ”tour guide” and she was great!! Definitely worth checking out!
Kat Granville
One of the best rooms to date! They really get into the experience and made us work to get out. Very well put together and challenging. I would highly recommend this to others. Great thing to do when traveling.
Theo Goguely
Very well designed, decorated and themed escape room. Not too hard if you've done a bunch before, but lots of fun! Highly recommend if you're in town and need an indoor activity.
Mason Capello
Me and 3 other friends did the Mardi Gras room and was successful. We thoroughly enjoyed our selfs and we will be returning. Jax was our helper and he was awesome, and very helpful.
I highly recommend going.
Rona Tyger, EdD
Great bday group fun for us. Two PhDs and two B.A.s couldn't escape our room. I'd like to blame it on the missing Knight on tbe chess board, but really, we just needed to practice our clue reading and interpreting skills. Great location. We found free street parking on a Friday night. You need reservations. Don't be late and don't arrive tipsy.
Myles Brothers
👍🏾👍🏾Had a great time here doing the JazzParlor escape room. MIDGE was an exceptional host—super funny & witty. The experience was that much better because of her. iRecommend “Escape My Room” if you’re looking for something fun to do. It was my brother & his gf first time ever doing an escape room & they absolutely loved it. We will be back to do the “Mardi Gras” themed room!
Mike Moncrief
The props were good but some were worn out and lighting was very poor and lights on a couple of props did not work, so it was not clear how to read directions or work some of the equipment.. Like a lot of escape rooms, there were marks on a lot of the props where it's apparent what people have tried in the past. We had to ask for numerous clues and even with help from the attendant we didn't see what to do because of poor lighting. The room was in a part of town where the streets were torn up so when we got there we turned and left because we thought were in the wrong pkace. There was not good signage outside. overall 3 out of 5.
Jonathan Williams
So much fun. I loved how they start the Emerson into the world of the game the minute you walk through the door. The puzzles are difficult, so don’t expect to be able to fumble your way through the puzzles. I can’t wait to go back!
Jeff Steindl
Amazing and emersive!!! Highly recommend booking! If you looking to kill some time before heading to the airport, then look no further!!!
Eileen Gofourth
We had a great time! Time goes by so fast. Would definitely go back and try other rooms. If you are visiting New Orleans you should add this event to your visit!
Benjamin Gebauer
Loved it! Very immersive experience and thoughtful environment. The attention to detail and creative vision really added to the challenge. The whole process was very well done and my wife and I had a wonderful time.
CYNTHIA HUNTER
Was a last minute idea for our group but we had a great time and the staff were super friendly and welcoming.
Steven Litle
Great experience!!! The first booking was so wonderfull we booked a second one for the next day. Mrs daisy and Emily where both absolutely terrific and heightened the experience. A must do one trip to new orleans.
Taylor Wall
If you're looking for an enthusiastic escape a room experience, look no further! The staff here sell such a wonderful story that you will be so excited to get started, and once you get started you won't want to stop!
Tyler Treadway
Good fun within a well-run puzzle—and take note of the word puzzle here. We wasted a bit of valuable time thinking it was a forensic scene. The actress playing Belle was “darling!”
Alison A.
What a great time we had, even though we didn't solve the mystery. Enjoyed the team work and finding and making sense of all the clues. Thanks! We will definitely be back to check out the Jazz room!
Eric Hoehn
This was my first time at an escape game. I had a great time. My group of 2 and another group of 4 were able to solve the puzzles with about 10 minutes to spare. I'll be doing more of these !
Dam Daryl
Escape my room is very interesting and fun for the family. The Inventor was a lot of fun and not extremely hard. The care taker Jax was a lot of fun and very helpful
Joe Presley
Great production value especially for an independent business. The curator was really good and the entire experience was amazing from the minute you enter the front door! Highly recommended!
Lucy Bain
I went for a bachelorette party and had a wonderful time! The room was fairly challenging, really interesting, and very on theme. Absolutely would go back to try another room!
Alyssa Coon-Harris
The immersion started the moment we walked through the door! The coolest escape room that I've been to so far! Nathaniel, our host, was super great too
Chanse Pope
My first experience with an Escape room. The staff had a great dedication to improv acting and played the parts externally well. I highly recommend visiting this wonderful place.
Kirstie Smith
This place is AWESOME! From the minute you walk in, you're in the game! We did the Inventors Attic, and it was tough.. we did it, but we only had 8 minutes left!! Such a good hour!!
Jessi Znosko
Lazlo was the best attendant. We did two rooms that were totally different, but fun and creative. Two of the better rooms we've done!
Jordan Reinhart
Best Escape Room I have ever experienced. High Quality across the board. Great detailed decoration, complex effects, immersive environment, and exciting puzzles
Casey Sheedy
The two room we did were fun. The last roo. with several people who had never done an escape room was very trying. The rok.s were fun and the game master was great.
Brannon B
We enjoyed it and it was fun, but the Inventors Attic has a 20% pass rate and should be given a bigger time allotment.
Holly Christie
Awesome escape rooms. Had to do 2 in 1 day. Incredibly immersive the second you step into the shop. Great hosts and puzzles
Molly Thomas
Super well done. The experience starts as soon as you set foot in the building. Our guide Junior was great! Great fun for the whole family!
Ashley Walker
Did not escape. I'll just put that out there. I shall not give specifics about my room--but one of their concepts I felt slowed us down and did not allow us to escape. I'd still recommend it as I believe I placed too much thought into finding certain clues. I'd recommend it.
Frank Hutchinson
The experience was immersive and engaging. Emily was fantastic. Even though we didn’t finish, we still had a blast!
Scott Henderson
Had a blast! Loved the theme and the extensive set decoration of the rooms, something you won't find in most other escape rooms.
Clint Nicholson
It was incredible! The first escape room that we went to anisette a really high bar! Very engaging and very fun and difficult! I'm addicted!
Lizz Matthys-Pyle
By far the best escape room I've ever been to. The whole place is themed, and I love it.
Melanie Murphy
So much fun! I enjoyed every minute! Love and appericate all the work that they put into making the atmosphere family friendly and exciting! Highly advise you to support them!
Koustav Dasgupta
The best escape room experience I have been to. The attention to detail is really good, the puzzles are logical and a lot of fun!
Jay Noyfub
First off, Lindsay was great. I mean, she put up with me and my shenanigans...
The room we did was also amazing. Real life crypto puzzles.
mattr1016
I had such an amazing time, and I lost! Even failing to win didnt take away from how great an experience this was. Our guide Emily was fantastic and was very helpful. Would def recommend this to anyone who is curious to try.
Greg Stein
Lots of fun! The inventor' attic was challenging in a good way. Nathaniel, the proprietor, did a great job immersing us in the story.
Brian
It was a fun experience and one we would definitely do again. The man working there was funny, helpful and very engaging. Overall very pleased with our visit.
Darsel Carter
The set up was creepy ment to keep u thinking never at easy. That great made it morre fun a real suspenseful live interaction character involved gameplay. I would do more of these in the future. Highly recommend.
Brandon Wentworth
This place is really well put together and the staff are into it. We accidentally scheduled for the wrong day and they graciously let us go through anyway. If you've never done it before, don't start with the hardest one like we did!
Paul Long Jr
I had a fantastic time visiting with my friends. Can't wait till the next time I'm down to try another room or two. We barely finished with 3 of us escaping only minutes before time ran out.
Lindsay Wilder
Spent my sons 13th birthday in the Jazz Parlor! The mystery begins the moment you walk in the door! We had a great time. Friendly staff!
Chuck Crossett
My family has done a lot of escape rooms and the Inventors Attic at Escape My Room is the absolute best one. We had a blast!
Brady Woodington
Some of the best, most immersive rooms I've done. Did multiple rooms and each guide, Misty, Wren, and Phineas, were all great!
Jessica Creed
Amazing immersive experience. My husband and I are very into escape rooms and we ended up doing three over the course of our week here. Worth it.
Michael Dunton
Our group had a blast here. It was very well done and we felt in it the entire time. Lindsey our guide was great and very informative.
Jerry O'Neal
We had a great experience. It was much more immersive than others we have been to. It wasn't too complicated for two people. Daisy was great.
Shawntá Angel Francis
It was really really fun. We got tripped up on one thing and it cost us our time. Overall, it was a great experience from the initial phone call and going through the game.
Jeffs Corner
A little bit of a hole in the wall place. You should get a prize for finding it. It is down an alley. It was 2 couples. They say up to 8. But I think that would be too crowded. They also give too many clues in my opinion. But it was still fun.
Marlon Rock
Great experience once again . We did the Jazz parlor this time around and was difficult I must say. We did barely escape. Joy was a great hostess
David James Hamilton
This place is a fully immersive experience, from the second you walk in the front door. The staff is completely in character, and are very helpful. I knew this was going to be a fun idea, but this went above and beyond my expectations. Do this.
Katie Bodden
This place was awesome. They go all in, even from the first step in the door. Wish we could have done the other rooms available. So much fun!
Kelsey Smith
Took my dad here during his visit to NOLA. We had a loads of fun solving all of the different puzzles including the bonus puzzle!
Tom Sandefur
Absolutely great escape room. Did the "inventor" room. Puzzles were varied and interesting. Details were great and decorations extensive
Michael Sara
Great escape room but I can't post anything about it. Our guide was awesome and the puzzle was fair. We escaped!
Alex Crook
Excellent showmanship!! Even more satisfying that we escaped 🤩 very well designed rooms. Worth a visit. …
Donnie Thornton
From first entry to exit everyone was in character. Entire experience was awesome. Staff was friendly and helpful. Very well laid out. Would go again if we had the time....definitely next visit.
Seth Lickteig
Excellent escape room. Was able to sign up the night of and completed room as a team of two. Great location to other downtown attractions.
Erik Cunningham
Had a great experience at the escape room. Rooms are creative, detailed and clean! Staff was very friendly.
Richard Winkle
Fun, challenging, story driven from the second you enter from the street. Highly recommend this experience.
Wendy Rochefort
Went with a group of 8 friends. Had a fantastic time. Loved how we all worked together to solve the puzzles.. Ready to do another 1..
Andrew Coletti
The most fun Escape Room I've ever done! Theatrical, whimsical, challenging, and satisfying (even though I didn't manage to escape...)
Charles Saxton
Lot of fun. A real challenge for the escape artist in you. You well enjoy this one.
Hasib B
I have been to several escape rooms around the country. This was by far the best I've seen. The immersion into the world begins when you first walk through the front door.
Joya Henderson
The 7 of us had a blast! It was so much fun! The hostess Emily made the experience the best ever!
Andy W
Amazing. Absolutely immersive. We've done a handful of escape rooms now and we look for new ones at every city we visit. This is definitely one of the best ones we've experienced.
Kerry Anderson
Great experience and so much fun! Very clever puzzles and scenarios. Nathaniel was a wonderful host!
Juan Abad
Mardi Gras Study room was very underwhelming. The game master was nice, but the game-play was very un-engaging.
Mary Blank
Lindsey was a great curator! We had a great time and the whole thing from start to finish is really well done and immersive.
Jonathan Fadok
The best escape room I have ever done! Totally immersive and fun. The whole experience was amazing.
Kourtni Crenshaw
it was an amazing experience...next time I am in new Orleans I will be coming back. My friends and I did the Jazz Parlor and it was well worth it Robert was great as well.
Geoff Paul
It was incredibly hard but very fun. Nathaniel was amazing as a host. Definitely recommend - but be aware, it's very hard!
Leslie Butler
This was my first ever escape room and I absolutely loved it. The guy Lazo we had was really helpful and it was an amazing storyline.
Ken Hamric
Best Escape Room I have ever been too. From the second you enter the building you are immediately taken to a different time!!!! Highly Recommend!!!!!
Cheryl Bennett
Had a great time here for a friend's birthday. It took a team effort trying to escape and was a super fun experience. I'd do it again!
Doug Whitten
My friends and I do escape rooms all over the country. This was one of my absolute favorite. The decorations and creativity is just amazing.

Was one of the best escape rooms we've ever done. Very well thought out and immersive! Fantastic!

One of the best waiting areas I've seen in nearly 100 escape rooms. Highly recommend inventors attic.
Courtney Bobbitt

One of the best escape room experiences. We have done the Inventor's Attic. I fully recommend it.
Dave Smith
High production quality from the waiting room on, clever and inventive puzzles, and a really great hint system. The Jazz room was phenomenal
Brenna Rastrelli
Enjoyed the New Orleans "De la Porte" family story. Interesting & challenging puzzle, option of being in costumes was a fun twist.
Tim Shull
Very cool. Maybe spoiled me as far as escape rooms go - puzzles are dynamic and the atmosphere is immersive.
Chase H.
First escape room, did it with 2 friends and another family. Very exciting and interesting to play looking for clues and how everything ties together!
Jaclyn Basilone
Wooooooow. Just wow. So much detail, fully immersive. I don't even particularly enjoy escape rooms but I will be back.
Skyler Manley
Amazingly immersive. They had my group and I into the story as soon as we walked through the door. There is a good reason why it is reservation only.
Eric Woelker
Antoinette was a fantastic host and put up with the Interrupting Eric's like a trooper. Thanks for letting us solve the case for you! Call us back any time! 👍🧐 …
Eric Marsh
We had a lot of fun! We did the Jazz parlor and our host Phineas was very helpful
Carrie Blackwell
Simply the best activity we have done since being in New Orleans. We had a great time and will go back tomorrow. AND WE ESCAPED HAHA with 20 seconds left. Great activity
Rusty Ammerman
The level of theme was unsurpassed. Of the dozen or so escape rooms I've done across the country, this was by far superior to all others.
Saudy Balzac
We had a blast! Thanks to my daughters I escaped and solved the mystery. Totally recommend!
FightClub Sandwich
We had a great time. Very cool vibe, and a challenging room. Friendly staff! Would recommend.
Karen Thomas
First experience in an escape room. It was fun, other than the 2 inebriated people who joined us that were "experts" in escape room experiences. BTW.... we did escape.
Nona Cavalier
Puzzles were fairly easy to solve was not set up where group could work individually had to get clues from book, instead of clues by puzzles.
Zach Sanders
Quality time! Best experiences ever, customer service is excellent.
No hustle, easy location, and no problem with the parking lot. The prices are reasonable and all worth it.
