They have, by far, the best escape rooms I've ever done. Theming is perfect, puzzles are fun and challenging, and there's always at least one unique puzzle that I've never seen before

Love coming here or to any panic escape room. Did the purge one here with my family, actually was pretty challenging and led to a couple more doors. Only thing was I’m not sure if it was a busy night or didn’t have enough staff tonight our room started about 10 minutes after our reserved time and Lobby was filling up kinda quick waiting for someone. I still would come back any day tho, always a fun time!

I loved every part of it. We did an intermediate room and the room consisted of 4 different rooms and they took advantage of every portion of the building. There was a small technical that they gave us a heads up about but it didn't bothers much when running through it. They setup a back up seamlessly for it. Not to brag but our 4 man group beat it with 15:23 left on the clock.

The room itself was well done, the in person staff was very pleasant and easy to talk to. The phone customer service/owner is horribly rude. Apparently a known issue according to staff.

Our family loves doing escape rooms and have done 100+. This is our family's favorite place to do escape rooms. We have done 16 escape rooms at their four different locations and unfortunately we're out of rooms at their locations that our family can do. The rooms we've done at Panic are all listed below. Hoffman Estates Location:Uncut GemsThe Lost ArcadeCold Case Files: AmnesiaConjuring: RevisitedHogwarts: Dormi CitoHoliday RushArkham Asylum: Riddlers EscapeAddison Location:Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead IslandBlack MirrorInsidious: Return to the FurtherResident Evil: Return to Raccoon City South Elgin Location:Alice in WonderlandWe are Anonymous 2.0Unsolved Mysteries: Institution Secrets Night At The MuseumPalatine Location:BeetleJuice: Escape The AfterlifeThey always have the best production quality and the puzzles are always challenging but logical. We love that they're movie based and the theming is top notch. The most recent one we did was BeetleJuice: Escape the Afterlife. This game opened the day before so there is always going to be quirks and things to still figure out. They were having issues with their sound system so the music was very loud in the last room. Our oldest son is Autistic so the loudness in the last room made it overstimulating for him. It also made it hard for us to hear the clues being delivered and them to hearing us ask for a clue.

Sky & her trainee were Awesome!! Never did this before. My granddaughter was adamant to do this. I was a little hesitant, but it turned out to be Amazing!!! We actually figured out the Alice in Wonderland room!! You need to definitely ask for the clues!! So worth the price. We made such memories. ? I even bought a t-shirt so she could remember our special day.

I would just like to say now I am not too big on leaving reviews but when I left today I knew I was going to! Me and my friend went and we had a very good time. We played Forever Purge and let me just start by saying that room you are put into is so immersive it really feels like what it is supposed to be! As well as the room has all around good, and clever puzzles. We "made it out" with 50 seconds and it was down to the wire and I loved that! Now onto the other part I would like to comment on our game master a nice lady named Sky, she had ran our room and just all around she was amazing. You can really tell how much passion she has for the job! She makes the rooms even more fun. So overall cool puzzle ideas and I would say as well as some pretty immersive rooms. And as well as the amazing customer service we loved it! Whether you have played lots of rooms or even if you have played none I would recommend giving these guys a visit.

This place is great! Sky, the staff member, was very kind and helpful she made our experience so much better.The rooms are really well done and fully dressed which really adds to the experience. The Alice in wonderland room was beautifully done and the perfect starter room. I've done three rooms here and loved each one.

Amazing experience. Short and amazing. We went there a group of 6 for the first time(also first experience for an escape room ever) and it was very good. We picked the one show Anonymous and it was good brainy. Like a small 2 room, one hour experience, but perfect combination of heart racing and good adrenaline rush for me.Would definitely go again and try again.

We had 7 of us and did not pass!! lol! It was our frist time, but so very fun! Very creative job you guys do! Only thing , I would make sure the whole group listen to the very beginning instructions before going into the room, as we missed, the waiving to get clues, so we for sure failed and didn't undertand whtat we were looking for or how to even start getting out! lol!

Did night at the museum. Friendly staff (which is why it got a 3 star). Clues weren't exciting and far too many number locks. I enjoy the searching for items in the room to assist finding clues, not just constantly trying# combos to open something for more number combos. Lost interest about 30 minutes in.

First time here and I had an amazing experience! Gerardo made my friend and I feel welcomed and was helpful! Totally recommend this place. The rooms were very creative and well planned. Hopefully everyone gets Gerardo as their game master especially if it’s their first time there!

Gerardo was the best game master and made the whole experience so much fun. The escape rooms were a little challenging but overall solvable and it makes you feel like you’re actually there. 5/5 recommend!!!

I came here with some friends a few days back. Had fun in the room and thought it was well put together! Our main Game master wasn't very kind though. She came in to help us and made us more confused than when we had asked for help, as if she didn't know what was going on. Very snappish with us and definitely didn't want us there. She was clearly irritated by us. We were informed a manager wasn't available so there was no one to go to with concerns. Other redhead employee deserves a raise though! She was kind. Overall, super fun. But I wish we had a better game master!
