Custom Escape Room

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz.

With The Wizard of Oz, 13th Hour Escape Rooms has proven that they are not a one trick pony. This escape room departed from their overarching world of The Hayden Farm (where actors playing the murderous family members sometimes roam the escape rooms) and their commitment to the playful, creepy style they’ve become known for.

With the Wizard of Oz as inspiration, 13th Hour Escape Rooms built their own Kansas and Oz. From the characters, to the sets, to the iconic story beats, they brought it all to life. Fans, take note: you don’t want to miss this.

The escape room included the type of transition that few companies can pull off. Even though we knew where this house would land, the reveal was as magical as when it happened in the movie.

From an aesthetic and adventure standpoint, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz was easily a regional standout. We encountered some inconsistent cluing, and there was room for improved gating. However, overall, 13th Hour Escape Rooms adapted their signature style of layered puzzles, lists, and pattern recognition to Oz, and it flowed pretty smoothly.

“We did the Stolen Relic room. We are very experienced escape room gamers having completed countless rooms around the US and Europe. In Europe, escape rooms are at a whole different (better) level than in the US. This room was as close to European standards that we have been able to find. It wasn’t just a bunch of locks like most other rooms. The owners have put a lot of work into this room. And unfortunately for us, this was the first room where we’ve run out of time. It was a fun challenge.”

“What an amazing place! We got the tickets for Christmas and loved the experience. It’s a fun and difficult challenge – teaching you how to work with your friends/family and how to work with strangers. This was a great and fun experience and I definitely recommend it.”

“Themescape’s name is apt, as its rooms are highly themed and aim to take you on an escape from your daily reality. The now-retired g”ame Sector X offered spectacle: a chamber with clues only illuminated by a hand crank, a bookshelf full of gooey specimens from space and a creature nestled up in a creepy, pulsating cocoon….”
