You found yourself in a pitch-black room. Dizzy and disoriented, with no memory of prior events, you stumble in the the dark until you discover a flash light… Can you figure out what is happening and, most importantly, how to get out?! …or will you become the next victim?
Search for clues, solve puzzles, discover hidden items… do whatever it takes to escape!
Great for beginners and intermediate players, as well as those who enjoy some adrenaline with their brain teasers.

Last night, a few friends of mine and I escaped The Dark Room! We worked our way through puzzles and tried not to lose our heads when we were anxious and stumped. With the help of our amazing gamemaster, Miguel, we were able to keep our heads and get dialed in on the right way to get out.Highly recommend this escape room having completed several escape rooms, this one was a fun experience for sure. Also felt great that we were the only ones to escape in time for that room yesterday! Miguel was great at giving backstory and clues when needed. Thanks Miguel!

As a person who has done many escape rooms. The Dark Room that Room 5280 has is honestly one of the best escape rooms I can easily recommend to someone who hasn’t tried an escape room or a veteran escape room player. The theme of the room was so unique that if I spoil it. I would be doing a huge disservice to the amazing team that made it. Huge thanks to our host Chuck! You were awesome! 😊

We did the Dark Room. It was alot of fun. Not scary and perfect for the beginners. We escaped with 8 minutes to spare.

Great Customer Service! Miguel was friendly, very supporting, and take care of every detail. He did the extra-mile to allow us have a good time. Regarding the Escape Room (The Dark Room) is quite challenging since you operate with your team in a dark environment and need coordination and team work to succeed. I’ll be back sooner than later !

Such a fun way to spend Mother’s Day with my kiddos and parents! I will definitely go back with friends and teammates. The Dark Room kept us quite intrigued. Thanks for making our first escape room a memorable experience.

I read all the negative reviews first, and i can say you should probably ignore them. Our group of 4 is fairly experienced in escape rooms. We have done them all over the country and is a hobby of mine. Of the 30 or so that my wife and i have done, we have only not escaped 1. We did the experiment followed by the heist, back to back. We escaped both! But that is no way a knock on either room, they are CHALLENGING!! They are also a fun time! Seth, our GM, was awesome. He brought lots of positive energy, even at the end of the day, it was 11PM and Seth was all about the game, and making it a fun experience for all of us. We will be back because we have to do the last one, The Dark Room. If they came up with a new one, we would also be back.
