Escape Room Tips & Strategy

Few things can adequately prepare someone for the intensity and excitement of an escape room, but here are a few quick pointers:

  • Work together as a team. There's no need to showboat or make conflict with teammates. You're all striving for the common goal of escaping in time.
  • Keep an eye on the clock, as time passes very quickly.
  • Take advantage of your clues. We try to offer assistance when needed, and inevitably, most groups get stuck on something or another.
  • Instead of digging deep into your advanced Calculus knowledge, when you get stumped for 5-10 minutes on a single step, just ask for help. Chances are the solution was something pretty simple that you guys just happened to miss. Trust me, you'll feel a lot better having broken out after using 2 clues than fretting over what went wrong when you refused to ask for help.

Restaurants & Recommendations for Escape Room Night

After your escape room at Breakout, I recommend heading out to eat afterwards to complete a fun evening out. All that thinking may leave you hungry, and a good restaurant provides a fabulous ambience for discussing the finer details of the room and your group’s experience there. There are numerous great options very close to Breakout Games - Milwaukee, including PHO One24, Noodles and Company, Arriba Mexican Restaurant & Lounge, Butler Inn, Pizza Man Tosa, India Garden, Taqueria El Jefe, Boulder Junction Charcoal, and Sluggo’s Sports Pub & Grill. If you’re looking to grab drinks, try out Bottoms Up Tavern. Or, if you want to continue the fun with another activity, check out Bowlero Wauwatosa for bowling.
