OMESCAPE brings New York City's longest-running high-tech escape room experience right to Times Square. Every game runs 70 minutes, giving you and your crew enough time to crack codes, solve puzzles, and feel like absolute heroes. Whether you're planning a birthday bash, building team chemistry at work, or just want something cooler than the usual night out, this place delivers.
Three distinct rooms mean three completely different adventures. Each one pulls you into its own world with detailed environments and storylines that actually make sense. You're not just solving random puzzles—you're living through a mission.
The Penitentiary throws you straight into a prison break scenario. No fancy backstory needed here—just you, your team, and the clock ticking down. It's pure adrenaline.
The other rooms blend narrative with brain-teasers. You'll dodge danger, crack codes under pressure, and work through challenges that require actual thinking. The setups feel authentic enough to forget you're still in Manhattan.
The puzzles here aren't impossible, but they'll make you work for it. Every room has a Game Master monitoring your progress, dropping hints when you're stuck without giving away the whole solution. That balance keeps things fun instead of frustrating.
Your team will need to communicate constantly. Someone spots a clue, another person connects it to something earlier, and suddenly you're onto the next challenge. The staff keeps the energy high without hovering, and when you finally crack that last puzzle, the payoff feels earned.
Groups love this place for good reason. Birthday crews show up and leave with stories they'll retell for months. Corporate teams build actual chemistry instead of suffering through trust falls. Friend groups just looking for weekend plans find something way better than another bar crawl.
The minimum age is 10, but honestly, most rooms work best with teens and adults who can handle the difficulty. Younger kids might struggle with some concepts, but older ones absolutely crush it.
Weekday bookings run $39.99 per person for all three rooms—The Penitentiary, Laboratory of Biohazard, and Arcane Engine. Weekend slots go for $49.99 per person. Right now, there's a 25% discount running through December 31, 2025, which makes weekday games about $30 per person.
Booking online takes maybe two minutes. Hit the reservation button on their site, pick your room and time slot, and you're set. Weekends fill up fast, especially evening slots, so booking ahead saves you from missing out.
You'll find OMESCAPE right in Times Square, which makes it ridiculously easy to reach by subway or on foot. They've been running escape rooms here for over 8 years, so they know exactly what works.
Beyond the three game rooms, there's a 3,200 square foot private party space available for bigger groups. The staff keeps things relaxed—friendly without being over-the-top, helpful without babying you through puzzles.
Ready to test your team against NYC's top-rated escape rooms? OMESCAPE Times Square delivers high-tech challenges, immersive themes, and memories that stick around longer than your average night out.
