1. Do I need any special knowledge to have fun in an escape room?

Not really! Just pay close attention to everything around you. At PanIQ Escape Room Atlanta, any object could be a clue—or just part of the decoration. Look around carefully and split up the puzzles among your team. Working together on different tasks will save time and help you make progress.

2. What should I wear to an escape room experience?

Dress comfortably. We do not recommend fancy clothes, just wear something casual like jeans and a t-shirt. You’ll be walking, crouching, and searching for clues, so choose clothes that let you move easily. As you can see on our PanIQ Atlanta Instagram page, there will be a lot of exciting moments.

3. What is the success rate of escape rooms?

It depends on how hard the room is, how big the team is, and how much experience everyone has. On average, about 60% of teams get out before time runs out. Within our rooms selection, there’s always one that fits your skill level and keeps the challenge fun.

4. What’s the best escape room for adults?

It really comes down to what you like. At PanIQ Escape Room Atlanta, adults often enjoy rooms like Medieval Madness. This room is packed with interesting puzzles with some darkness that adults find exciting and fun.

5. Is an escape room good for a 7-year-old?

Usually, escape rooms in Atlanta are better for kids who are at least 8 years old. Younger kids might find the puzzles too difficult and get frustrated. If you’re planning a family escape room, make sure to check the recommended age for each room. For example our Wizard Trials room is one of the best family-friendly escape room in Atlanta:

6. Can I play an escape room while drunk?

Nope, we really don’t recommend it. Being drunk will make it hard to focus and might spoil the game for the rest of your team. It’s way more fun to celebrate afterward at one of Atlanta’s great bars.

7. Can I bring my phone inside?

You can bring it, but we ask that you don’t use it during the game. Pulling out your phone can spoil the mood and distract you from the puzzles. Keep it in your pocket and stay in the moment—it’s more fun that way!

8. Can I go to the bathroom during the game?

Yes, but it’s better to use the restroom before the game starts. The rooms have emergency exits if you really need to leave, but you don’t want to loose time becuase of an emergency break.

9. How early should I arrive?

Try to get here at least 15 minutes before your game starts. That way, you’ll have time to check in, sign the waiver, and check the rules. You’ll also get a quick rundown of the room’s story and any helpful tips. Being early means you can start the game relaxed and ready to go.

10. Are escape rooms good for your brain?

While there’s no study on it, most people find that escape rooms are a great way to sharpen problem-solving skills and build focus. The mix of puzzles, teamwork, and interesting themes at PanIQ Escape Room Atlanta makes for a fun mental challenge that you’ll remember long after you’ve escaped.
