Escape Capers YYC

This escape room definitely has the best service in Calgary. I have been to many escape rooms and this one needs to get an award. All the staff were really polite and well trained. During the wait time, they had puzzles for us and after the game, we were led to another room to relax and hang out.
There were 13 of us and we separated into two groups. My group did the mysterati room and the other group did the dinner party! We all agreed that it was really fun. Even though we did not become a part of the mysterati group (failed), it was worth it. The «grand masters» in the mysterati room was very helpful and professional. They stayed in character throughout the whole game and was actually pretty funny. The rooms were very creative and all the puzzles were well thought out.
I would recommend escape capers to all my friends and go there again!

Such an amazing experience here! This is so unique compared to any escape room we have ever been to, and the puzzles are challenging but totally do-​able. The creativity is remarkable and the employees are unbelievably accommodating, helpful, and hilariously in-​character the whole time. The room was a blast and we had an amazing time. Definitely on the short list of the best rooms in Calgary!

Seeking to do something a little different, seven friends and I went to Escape Capers to try our hands at escaping from Maxim’s Dinner Party. The majority of us (myself included) had never been to an escape room before. I wasn’t really sure what to expect, but from the minute we got their expectations were exceeded.
The room it’s self was set up really well and it felt «real». There were tons of tasks to be completed and the 8 of us were busy the whole time. No 1 or 2 people «carried» the team — there were many different things to do/​figure out so everyone was contributing. There were some really cool special touches too (no spoilers!). Having the host in the room was extremely beneficial as she prevented us from wasting too much of our time.
We ended up escaping (woo hoo!) and we all agreed it was a great time. So much so, in fact, that we decided to go back the following weekend and try our hand at the Chamber of the Mysterati.
This one was REALLY HARD! We survived — but barely. Got out with 30 seconds to spare! If you’re going to be attempting this room, it’s definitely beneficial to have the maxium number of players (8). This room was awesome as well, although I preferred the dinner party — mostly because there were more number puzzles in this room and those aren’t really my thing.
Escape Capers has now ignited an «escape room» enthusiasm amongst my friends and I — my only fear is that we did the best rooms in the city first! I can’t wait til they have more rooms for us to try.
