When you’re ready book your adventure with us, you might be wondering: am I really going to be locked in a room?
Am I Really Locked In a Room?
This is an easy answer: No! When escape rooms were new, most of them locked participants in rooms without the ability to leave on their own; this was the norm. (Some escape rooms even locked guests in shackles, handcuffs, or coffins!) However, as the industry has matured, most progressive escape rooms like EscapeWorks have moved away from these practices in the interest of safety and security , instead keeping guests on their toes with challenging puzzles and immersive themes.
At EscapeWorks Denver, none of our escape rooms are actually locked: leaving the room at any time, for any reason, is allowed and acceptable. But leaving the room before you’ve solved all the puzzles does not constitute accomplishing the goal! At all times at EscapeWorks, you can always exit your room the way you came in without assistance or permission from anyone else, safely all the way out our front door or emergency back door exits.
How small are the rooms?
Good question! We designed our largest room, Blackbeard’s Brig, for up to 15 people – less than half the legal occupancy limit of the space. If you prefer the widest open space, give this room a try. But even our smaller rooms are the size of a large business office and are never designed to make guests feel crowded or tightly enclosed.
A Focus on Safety
We design our immersive escape rooms to be a thrilling race against the clock. While experiencing your game at EscapeWorks, our experienced game masters will supervise your group via cameras and microphones situated in every room. They are there not only to keep you safe, but also to ensure that everyone has a great time, and to help provide hints and assistance the group needs to enjoy the experience.
And of course, as you should expect from any building, you’ll see exit signs, backup emergency lights, and multiple egress routes in the unlikely event that the building must be evacuated.
If intellectual stimulation, competitive spirit, and the ability to best your peers sound like a great way to spend an afternoon, you’re in the right place. With the heart-pounding, adrenaline-boosting power of escape rooms, you can put your skills to the test to come out on top. EscapeWorks Denver is the top-rated facility of its kind in Colorado, providing regularly rotating themes, puzzles at numerous skill levels, and some of the biggest twists and surprises in the industry. Every visit provides a brand new opportunity to break free, offering unlimited fun aimed at ages 10 and up.

We had an amazing time at the Speakeasy escape room! The whole experience was fun, immersive, and really well put together. We were walk-ins and were pleasantly surprised to get in right away—no wait at all. Our Game Master, Sean, was incredibly helpful and outgoing—he struck the perfect balance of giving us support when we needed it without spoiling the fun. The rest of the staff were just as friendly and welcoming, which made the whole visit even better. If you’re looking for a challenging and entertaining escape room experience, this is definitely the place to go. Highly recommend!

Excellent experience! Dakota and company couldn't have been any nicer and accomodating! We did the Vampire Hunter Room and we absolutely loved it; it was challenging as well as entertaining. We would definitely recommend. Also, besides being a phenomenal Game Master, Dakota presented us with options of things to do in Denver AFTER our Escape Room experience (we were in town as 1st time tourists). Thank you for being so helpful!

We did the vampire room and it was super challenging but very fun and thematic! Dakota was such a great game master, super funny and knew just when to drop hints when we were stuck! I highly recommend anyone check this place out in Denver if they get the chance. You won't regret it!

One of the best escape room experiences I’ve had. We played “Vampire Hunter” and it was an immersive experience with a variety of really good puzzles. Zeke, our Game Master, was fantastic and set the perfect tone for a very enjoyable time!

Super fun! We stopped by during a quick trip to Denver. We do a lot of escape rooms and I can say that this one was high quality!
Cooper & Dakota were great game masters, combining humor and straightforwardness in explaining the rules.
We played the Black Beard’s Brig room and loved it- unique clues, cool props, and interactive for all members in our group.
We’ll definitely try to go back if we ever find ourselves in Denver again.

We went for my sisters bachelorette and it was amazing. The room was decorated so well. We did the ancient Egypt room and the fact that the room had real sand on the floor was mind blowing. Harmony was also such an amazing game master. She was entertaining, she played her role well, and she knew when to give us a nudge in the direction. I will absolutely recommend Escape Works and Harmony to everyone looking for an escape room experience.
