Escape in Time
ESCAPE IN TIME Escape Rooms were designed and decorated by world-class artists, accomplished prop-makers and talented builders with experience working for the Amusement Park and Halloween Attractions industries. You will be absolutely amazed with our Escape Room set design and attention to detail! Our Escape Rooms are located in Madison, near West Towne, in the Market Square Mall. What is an Escape Room? "...Real-life escape rooms are a type of physical adventure game in which people are "locked" in a room with other participants and must use elements of the room to solve a series of puzzles, find clues, and escape the room within a set time limit..." Critical thinking, creative problem solving and the ability to work under pressure are skills you will sharpen during your experience. Forget everything you know about escape rooms. Our rooms will literally blow you away! "BEST ESCAPE ROOMS IN MADISON "
