Good rooms, creative, but sometimes the clues dont seem to flow logically from one to another. Not a huge deal because of the hints but it does take you out for a moment. Overall...very fun

The room we did was so well thought out, complex, challenging, and absolutely amazing! The staff was so friendly and the atmosphere in the lobby was so welcoming. The guy who showed us our room was so great, making us feel like we were all friends who had known each other for a very long time. I would 100% recommend :)

Had a blast yesterday doing the “Clinical trials” escape room. Our crew finished in under the 1 hour allotted time. For a groupe of 6 it was just about right. The clues were great but not too revealing. As far as customer service, it was good too, friendly and to the point. Overall simple and nice atmosphere. Had a good time.

Canned here with my wife and a friend and had a blast. Finished the room with 35 seconds to spare. Room puzzles were clever and challenging and Im not ashamed to admit we needed a few hints to finish it. Would recommend this place to others looking to have a fun, collaborative experience.

So much fun. Great people run this place.

Such a cool little place to visit. We had a blast going through the Wonderland room, which we finished with 15 minutes to spare! They lady there was super nice and explained how this works because it was our first time doing an escape room. We will definitely be doing another if we are ever in the area.

This was a unique escape room experience. The owner had created unique stories for each room. There are also no game masters but there are elements in each room that you can interact with for hints. According to the owner, there are different choices that result in different paths and outcomes to the game which is a really interesting concept. We did all 4 rooms that allow 2 people and enjoyed each one of them. Ive never seen a better price on an escape room. Its a great activity for a rainy day.

This is honestly one of my favorite escape room places ever! Ive only done 2 of them, but theyre so cool and well made. Will definitely be coming back every year we visit Arkansas.

Absolutely fantastic!!! I took my 12 year old daughter and her group of friends for her birthday and we ALL had the best time!! The rooms are so detailed and you see the story unfold as you work out the puzzle. We loved it so much we took our entire family back the next day! And all her friends came out saying they want to do that for their birthdays... that’s a win!! Great atmosphere all the way around and such a nice staff! My older daughter is already planning to go back for her birthday, can’t wait!! 🎉

This was my favorite escape room experience I have had. I’ve been to great Escape rooms and the ones that are just clues and padlocks. Between the special effects, clever use of computers and creative story lines, our group laughed and screamed. The Battling Robots, really good ice cream and hospitality from owner and employees made this a first rate experience! We will be back!

This is a fun escape room at a really great price! We have done quite a few escape rooms in the Southeastern US. It was the first room that was “monitored” by a robot and not by a human. This was very impressive since the clues and timing was pretty on point for a computer. At times, the robot probably went a little too easy on us. Overall a really fun time and would highly recommend! P.S. we were late to our booking because we didn’t realize they are in the HEART of downtown hot springs. We recommend planning ahead for parking taking a few minutes if town is busy that day.

Such a neat place! Fairly priced!The guy there builds everything he puts into his place. Its so inspiring and fun. The people there love what they do. My husband and I had an absolute blast. I would definitely visit again! Has a mini escape room, and regular escapes. Robot fighting and car racing. Also coffee and ice cream. So fun! Great for kids but fun for adults as well.

Our family LOVES escape rooms, so when we were visiting Hot Springs for our spring break we searched to see what was available. We ended up choosing A Narrow Escape because of the price, their offering of a military discount, and the helpfulness in getting a room reserved with Shane. We ended up doing two rooms- Home Alone and Inheritance- and they were excellent. Very different types of puzzles than a lot of rooms we’ve done. Our family of four escaped both rooms, but loved the different challenges. Dorian was our host and he went above and beyond to help us. We had so much fun that we opted to do a few more games they offered there on the premises. The human zoo was super fun, the free arcade game in their lobby was fun and our boys did some battle bots. I mean, how cool is that!? Perfect layout, ambiance, unique merch, and awesome escape rooms + customer service. Wish we lived here so we could come back and try their other rooms!

This was such an amazing experience! My husband and I chose the Home Alone room and it was super fun. We ended up winning and so they gave us a discount on merchandise (which is ALL homemade: even their game Killjoy!). They didnt have my size shirt in stock, so they are going to call me when it is in and mail it to me in ILLINOIS! The owner Shane and the employee we were with (Heather) are so kind and cheerful and you can tell they love their jobs. They made it so fun! Shane said Make yourselves at home. Please. Stay all night if you want. 10/10 would recommend. Im so sad we dont live in AR and probably wont be able to come back 🙁

This was fantastic! Very friendly staff. This was our first time. We will definitely come back! Great value. Highly recommend you go today! We all had a blast!!!

Took the family and did the Murder mystery room. Had a blast! Being that I do a bit of tinkering with electronics, I can also really appreciate the time and effort it took to create this room and all the hidden things!The consensus was that we all had fun and I would totally go back and do another room.

Lovely place! Staff is friendly, coffee is good and games are interesting. 10/10 would go again!

We had so much fun here, we came back the next day to do a second room! Highly recommend!

It was pretty fun, this was my first time in a escape room. The staff was super helpful and explain what to do in our selected room. Definitely recommend to go if yall are visiting.

My two teenagers and I did the Wonderland Room and it was a lot of fun. Staff is very friendly, clean facility, decent prices. Enjoyable overall and we plan to go back and complete other rooms as well.

Was worried we wouldnt escape but we did. Did Clinical Trial and Wonderland rooms. Both very different but fun. Bought good coffees from their shop beforehand and was able to take them in the rooms with us.

This was an awesome family experience. Affordable and the robotic deck was great too

Very nice owners and faculty. As someone who does escape rooms often, one of my favorites!

Had a great time. We’ll definitely do it another time.

Had a great time Home Alone. A fun room and friendly staff.

Amazing place. The ingenuity and detail the designer puts in to these rooms are insanely intricate. All around a great experience. My wife and I did two of their rooms and had a blast the morning after our nuptuals. They also have battle robots! And great espresso! This is a must visit place for a good experience!

We ended up doing multiple escape rooms while in hot springs. Three different companies have escape rooms in the downtown area. This was definitely our favorite set of rooms we did, and they were also the nicest establishment. The types of challenges used in their rooms are unique and a nice break from some of the rooms encountered that you can see the same things over and over.

Had so much fun doing the Bionic Dilemma with my husband, it was so much fun watching how we worked together to figure out the puzzles. The staff is so nice and the rooms are amazingly thought out. I will definitely be going again when I come back to visit Hot Springs again.

Had an absolutely AMAZING time! Escape rooms were awesome and then battle robots were sooooo much fun! You wont be disappointed!

This place was amazing and the owner is absolutely fantastic!!! We also did some robot battles after escaping the room. All around a great time.

Loved it, I go there with my friends every few months. Definitely will be back. Very fun, especially with other people.

My fiancé and I scheduled a time to play an escape room at 9PM. We didn’t realize that the gates at the place we were staying closed at 10. We called and Shane changed our time for us with no problem. A super flexible staff and fun escape room made this an excellent experience. We even booked another escape room for the next day. Would always recommend.

Absolutely amazing!! The atmosphere was so cool, everything was amazingly thought out and interactive, and the story behind our room and why we were escaping was so awesome and even emotional! 10/10, will definitely be going back 😁

This is a wonderful family environment. The owner creates the escape room and he is just genius!! They have coffee, ice cream and games while you wait. It is family owned and they are super nice and friendly. ❤️❤️❤️

It was great! We had such fun!

When I tell you this is the best escape room I’ve done, I mean it. We loved it so much in fact, we did 3! The rooms here aren’t mundane, unlock 10 doors and you win. There is a story in every room, told as you go through. Some rooms aren’t for the faint of heart when it comes to difficult, but there easy rooms that were just a cool to figure out. Make no mistake, these rooms are really complex but it’s done so well, it feels like a natural flow. Don’t overthink it, have that in mind when you go through. I whole heartedly recommend this place as a must stop in hot springs.

Had an absolute blast! The game master and his wife are wonderful people. And their little girl is so precious and friendly. Our little one had so much fun playing with her, it was the cutest!We were able to escape from the murder mystery in time WITH a 2 year old accompanying us. The puzzles are unique, engaging, and fun. Really impressive that he built everything in his own. We are already planning on doing the Bionic one next before we head home (tourists).

Our experience at A Narrow Escape was perfect. Shane and Dorian are great; they were very patient with us and explained the whole process to those that had never played before. Shane was so knowledgeable and eager to help; we really enjoyed visiting with him while we ate our Loblolly ice cream. All facilities were clean and well-maintained. The room we played was fun and full of surprises. Highly recommend. Well be back for sure!

We traveled to Degray lake resort with our singles group. Saturday night we went into downtown Hot Springs and had reserved the Murder Mystery room. The owner and his employee were amazing!! They even have ice cream, specialty coffee, and life size robot fighting!! We had the best time and we made it out!!

A first time for all three of us! We had a blast. It was challenging, but not frustrating. We will definitely do this again!

A Narrow Escape was our first escape room we have ever been to! There were 8 of us and we split into two groups to complete two different puzzles to race to the finish! The owner was absolutely amazing! He explained and gave us tips and tricks that really helped us first timers. His rooms were well thought out and the story lines will engulf you with how much he paid attention to the small details! He designs all of the rooms himself and it is absolutely impressive to see the art he has created in these puzzles. The prices were the best I have ever found in an escape room! If you need an hour out of the hot sun and dont know what to do, this should be your first pick! It was definitely the highlight to our trip to hot springs!

Our group had a great time at A Narrow Escape. My group did the Murder Mystery & our other group did Wonderland. We all had a great time. The coffee & ice cream were great too. Wonderful customer service from reservation through escape experience. Shane is a hard working young man.

They have a great sections of rooms. Some of their rooms do have multi ending which keeps you coming back. Very fun and great for the problem solvers and detective in your life!!!!

Came in town for memorial day and due to the virus a lot of places were closed. Came across A Narrow Escape and hands down has been the best part of the trip. Very family driven, fun and inviting environment. The rooms were very creative and will stay with you days after participating. Cant rave enough about the couple that own it. Better rooms than the typical escape rooms that you get at basically every city across the country. Ended up trying every room they had. Cant wait to come back and try the next room they create. If youre in Hot Springs do yourself a favor and go to A Narrow Escape.

Absolutely loved it! We did the clinical game which takes place in 1953. The game room and props were very authentic. The staff was very friendly & in character. The room was challenging but super fun! I loved the old music playing in the background. Cant wait to go back!

Great family time. We did home alone and the robots. The kids had a blast.

Awesome fun! Awesome staff! Def coming back

Our family has done two escape rooms with A Narrow Escape and they have been wonderful every time. The rooms are ranked by difficulty so you know what you’re getting into! Our most recent room, Bionic Dilemma was incredibly unique and such a clever escape room (I have done 5 escape rooms). Shane, the owner, was such a pleasure to interact with and he’s so genuine and ambitious about A Narrow Escape. I know he will continue doing great things in the future, and I can’t wait to keep coming back to see how it grows!!

We had such a great time! Very cool escape room and coffee was delicious!

We did 4 rooms in 2 days. Each provided new puzzles and lots of entertainment. Very much enjoyed the automated assist system and the well thought out storylines.

Has a great host who makes it all super fun and overall it was a wonderful experience

We had a great time. It was a welcome break from same old Saturday. I would do it again.

Very nice escape room experience. The owner gave us a great review of the escape room options and helped us select just what we were looking for. Overall great experience.

Best escape room ever been to! Highly recommend!

Visited the escape room while on vacation with my family. We were personally greeted by the owner when we arrived, he was very proud of his business and rightfully so. Very clean, great atmosphere, and the room we picked was fun but not so tough that my ten year old couldn’t help. Super pleased and will visit again!

My wife and I did one escape room experience here. The people were very nice and fun. The room was super interesting, although several of the clues and puzzle elements were out of place. Which was disappointing, because the overall design of the puzzles were really interesting, and posed just the right amount of challenge. In the end, the out of order clues made things confusing, but the hints from the attentive gamemaster allowed us to carry on and escape just in the nick of time. Id still call this a very positive experience, especially compared to other escape rooms Ive done. Would definitely do another room here.

My husband and I went and we loved it! He’s done escape rooms in Europe and this was my first one- it was a lot of fun and reasonably priced. It was awesome and highly recommend. We did the Pod room yesterday- it was super cool. They definitely do great with the technical portions and the story was captivating. Going back today for the Wonderland room!

We did the Pod escape room and it was a lot of fun. The puzzles are unique and complex; a lot better than some of the repetitive find the numbers, unlock a box escape rooms.They seem to really care about making the rooms a worthwhile experience and keeping things fresh. Apparently theyre always trying to improve the rooms and test new designs.The best part is that they wont book you with a bunch of strangers. We had a party of 2 and they assured us that if we booked a time, even if the room could fit 6 people they wouldnt fill our time slot with other people.Best escape room Ive been to so far.

Such fun! Shane is so enthusiastic and welcoming and Dorien is friendly too. I recommend this place to anyone that likes good, clean fun.

This place is top notch! We had a really great time! Thank you!

This was my first experience with an escape room. We were a party of four and had a great time. I gave it five stars because It met all my expectations and I had no complaints. The puzzle was challenging without being overwhelming. Good story and scenario. It was owned by a husband and wife who were very friendly and patient answering all our questions prior to starting. I would recommend it to anyone regardless of age or skill level.

Loved it! Did the bionic dilemma and very unique. Loved the puzzles and not your average every day escape room! Will defianlty come again! Owner is amazing!!!!

What a great adventure! Family friendly, and so much fun! Owner was super friendly and obviously extremely intelligent to have designed these adventures!! Thanks for a great time!!!

We did the “POD” room and absolutely loved it! All the themes are super original and the room was so detailed and well-made! The owner/operator was so friendly and we really enjoyed getting to talk with him! The atmosphere is so nice and it is very reasonably priced! If you’re looking for an escape room in this area, A Narrow Escape is definitely the best choice! Can’t wait to return!

Had a great time with the family. The staff was friendly and very helpful throughout the whole time we were there, especially Candi who was a big help to us as it was our first time there. Would highly recommend this place and will come back again next time were in town!

This was our first escape room adventure. We gave the pod room a go. It was very immersive and had an interesting space ship feel. The puzzles were moderately challenging, which led to a good experience. I would recommend trying any of the other rooms based on my experience.My significant other felt iffy about giving it a go, but ended up having a great time.The workers were very helpful & thoughtful.My only complaint would be that there was no hand soap in either of the bathroom facilities.Update: the owner replied and mentioned that the bathroom facilities were shared and someone from the other business keeps hijacking the hand soap!

Went with a group for my birthday. It was an awesome experience and I cant wait to go back with my nephews! They will love this place! The decoration and attention to detail is top notch!

Great customer services. With great escape rooms even for people who have never done one

Great staff and very exciting escape rooms. Very clean and interactive

Decent price and an okay room. Our group did the pod. It was quite fun and we had a few in our group new to puzzles. However even the least experienced members found it a bit too easy. There was quite a lot of hints both sent to us as well as in the room. It felt like one of those apps that exists just to have ads every level. Too easy to play again.

Coolest thing!!! The rooms are awesome and really make you think. Great people and really infectious atmosphere!

Great experience and very well priced. Will definitely be back!

My family and I stopped in this place on a whim. We were walking through downtown Hot Springs, Arkansas, and stepped into another world. Or as the company may call it, we had an out of this world experience. The escape room we were in was on an alien spaceship, and we had to find a way to get home to earth before we turned into aliens ourselves. It was fun, and I would definitely recommend this place to other families in the area or visiting.

This way absolutely amazing!!!! We had never done a escape room before and he was really great at explaining it to us. It was very good priced and the owner was funny and helpful. The rooms were amazing and super interesting. We had a blast. I would definitely recommend it for everyone. And next time I’m in down I will definitely go back. Just a blast.

Freaking amazing! Most fun ive had in years! The staff is just as awesome and was superb at explaining everything to you and making you and your family comfortable. 3 hours after we left my family was still taking about it with excitement and is already wanting to go back for more. I cant wait to come back this summer(out of town visitor). You all with love it and its worth every red cent.

It was fun. Not the best escape room weve tried, but definitely not the worst. The staff was friendly. Prices were reasonable compared to other escape rooms. We did the Alice in Wonderland room. The room was well decorated to go with the theme. It wasnt a very difficult room, though we got stumped on a very simple thing. The goal wasnt to escape the room, but to find a necklace, not quite as much fun as actually needing to escape.Side note, the bathroom is a separate suite and is hot, stinky, and gross.

The guy that owns and runs the coffee shop and escape rooms is amazing!First off, I’m not even a fan of latte’s but it was DELICIOUS, changed my whole outlook on latte’s.Second off, we did the easiest escape room and escaped with one 1 minute to spare! We had so much fun, the owner was so energetic and very descriptive when giving us our backstory.

Group of 5 of us did the POD room and it was a great time! Puzzles were challenging, but not in a stressful way. You can tell a lot of thought went into making the room interactive. Game master was friendly and tolerated our group’s antics. Definitely would do again!

Pretty awesome escape room! I enjoyed it

Awesome escape room and excellent lattes, wow!! Definitely coming back soon. Good people and well-run business.

Super fun and kid friendly escape room. We really enjoyed Wonderland. Employees were great and so was the coffee!

Absolutely awesome fun. We along with some friends opted to do the scenario to Find Granny. The owner,Shane, was great. He explained everything throughly to make our time there that much better.We will go back again it is great fun!!

We went here for my friend’s birthday. It was just the two of us but that was perfect for the more intimate setup of this escape room experience. Definitely one to come back to, it is affordable and good fun!

The guy who created these escape rooms was either a genius or a certified psychopath. Great way to spend time using your brain! Lots of fun!

We had a blast!This was my first escape room and it was such a great experience.We had so much fun we returned the next day for an unplanned escape.I highly recommend this escape room.

Great to do something different, had an awesome experience! Will return to try all escapes!

I have known the owners for years and I can attest to their kindness and creativeness that make for a great coffee visit and a fun, separate escape room visit. The best in Hot Springs!

My family has gone to A Narrow Escape twice in the last two years, both times around St Patrick’s day. The escapes are great fun but I really appreciate that they have fun with us and make it special. For instance I bought a ring for my daughter and they hid the birthday present among the clues. I really appreciated that they went out of their way like that, and my daughter loved it! The business is situated near the St Patty’s parade route and is an excellent place to see the bands play during the celebration. We love the town and will go back as often as we can. You should too!

My husband and I had the BEST time here!!! Ive always loved playing room escape games online but thats nothing compared to a live experience. Shane made this experience wonderful. And Maggie was just the icing on the cake!! If youre in Hot Springs you have to try this. Youll definitely come back.

I used this activity kick off a Bachelor party. Only one of our six had done an escape room before. We chose to do the Clinical Trial room and found it very enjoyable. The backstory was fun and the puzzles were clever and entertaining to figure out. We ended up escaping with 15 minutes to spare, but Id chalk that up to having a relatively smart group. This was definitely the highlight of the night.And a big shout-out to the staff here, who were awesome. You can tell they really love challenging people while making sure they have a great time.

We did this for my husbands birthday. There were 5 of us. 2 parents, 3 kids (ages 15, 13, 10). Had a blast. Everybody in the family got to show their strengths in solving all the different clue types. The robot in the story gave up a few helpful hints to steer us in the right direction. The guy was super nice . We were impressed that he built the whole theme from scratch. Very fun . I highly recommend this!

My fiancee and I are in town on vacation and scheduled our first ever escape room here. We did the Wonderland theme and had an absolute blast! I loved how intricate the puzzles were, and the Easter eggs were fun too.The owner is a really funny guy who really cares about his work. I can assure you well be returning any time were in town, and maybe again before we leave.

Very friendly staff. We did Pod and Bionic Dilemma. Both were great! I really liked how they always book the whole room for your group at no extra charge

We have done two of the rooms and both were over the top. The energy in the explanation of the room just starts the excitement. This entertainment is great for tourists in beautiful downtown Hot Springs.

Had a fantastic time! It was fun and the kids loved the Wonderland Escape room. We will definitely be going back!

We went here while on a family vacation in Hot Springs and it was a blast! We did the murder mystery and truly had such a fun time! The workers were fabulous and happy to help. My family and I would certainly recommend this place!

My family and I really liked this place. The scenarios/different rooms were really creative and well thought out. The staff was really helpful beforehand and during the escape. The puzzles were challenging but fun. Definitely will be back for the other rooms!

Fantastic from start to finish. The stories are creative and the puzzles are excellent. We live out of state but if we ever return to the area, we will definitely be back.

Great escape rooms. This guy has some of the most unique games. You wont find many like it

This was our first escape experience and we are really glad we chose to give it a try. We started with The Bionic Dilemma and the story line was great and the puzzles were challenging, engaging and a lot of fun. We had such a great time that we came back the next day and did the other room A Clinical Trial. Would highly recommend it!
