What a unique way to experience Austin! I've lived here for a while, but this game showed me all kinds of quirky landmarks I had no idea existed. The time travel theme was creatively integrated into everything we did. All of the artifacts that we got in our box were beautifully designed and high quality. There's even a mixtape to listen to while you play! We had our kids with us and they were able to participate and contribute, but they may have cost us the win. :)

Escape the Box coordinated an excellent corporate event for 105 people for us! The event took us about 30 minutes less than predicted, but folks had a really great time and appreciated the downtime. The puzzles were challenging yet doable. Rain was in the forecast, but Mark and Aris were flexible and we were able to make a game-time call to stay outside when the rain held off. Highly recommend!

Thank you to Mark and the team for a fantastic experience! We played Escape the Box as part of our team building offsite and it could not have been better. We got to explore downtown Austin solving fun riddles using landmarks and attractions. The team-based activity encouraged friendly competition and lots of laughs. Highly recommend!

Mark and Aris organized the best event for our company retreat in Austin! Everything ran smoothly from start to finish, the team helped plan everything. A huge thanks to Mark and Aris for the energy and time in making it a fun event all our colleagues enjoyed, including so many photos! We would love to do another event with Escape the Box next time we're in Austin.

We had the best time with Mark and team at our team event in East Austin in October. Super fun, so well organized, and really clever group activity. We loved it and would absolutely do it again.

Mark was wonderful to work with, proactive and flexible for our corporate group's custom needs (start time of the event, location, duration, number of participants, etc). We got a custom scavenger-like hunt through the ~3 blocks surrounding our office. Everyone had a blast. Mark helped guide the group throughout the activity, and our team had fun bonding over a bit of friendly competition. Thanks Mark!

I did Escape the Box with three friends and we had a great time! The entire experience took about 90 minutes. There were clues to follow and puzzles to solve, all of which led us to different stops on South Congress. My friends and I all live in Austin, so these were all places we'd been before, but Escape the Box gave us a new way to experience them, and it made us look at things that we'd walked past without noticing probably dozens of times before. The hosts were friendly and helpful without being overbearing. There was a minor and good-natured competitive element to it. All in all, a great way to spend an afternoon in good weather, and I'd recommend it to locals and out-of-towners.

Working with Mark was super fun and easy. We had a corporate meeting in Austin and this was the highlight of the trip. Everyone had a blast and it was great to be outside, checking downtown Austin and just having a good time. Thank you Mark for making this a great experience for our team.

This Escape the Box experience in Austin TX was incredible! Family favorite of the whole trip, interactive, fun, thoughtfully designed, all the clues were great - there was even an accompanying playlist! Cannot wait to go back and do the other box (we did 6th street, they also have a Congress area one).

Found this randomly on Do512, and it was a lot of fun. There were 5 of us, and it took right at 1.5 hr. We had an eclectic group of mutual friends and my mom, not everyone knew each other, but that didn't matter. The clues were incredibly well curated, and we laughed a lot.

I worked with the Wishing Horse Productions team for a company teambuilding (Time Travel Academy) - the planning process was easy with great communication, and the team had a fantastic time!

The experience I had with Wishing Horse was very memorable, and I was impressed with how organized everything was. Highly recommend Mark for a team building event that your company wants to put together.

I recently organized a small (under 10) corporate outdoor escape room event with Mark through Wishing Horse in Austin, TX. Mark was quick to respond, very organized, and readily available to answer any questions and make the entire planning process seamless. Our team loved the tour and had fun spending a day walking around a few S. Congress landmarks on the scavenger hunt. I'd recommend for both small and large events and would happily work with them again in the future

The Wishing Horse team hosted a fun, interactive scavenger hunt for our group of roughly 250 attendees. Not only did we have a blast navigating the bustling streets of Nashville, but our minds were constantly stimulated trying to decode the riddles and clues. Tons of fun thanks to a really creative event!

Our association had a fantastic time team-building in downtown Nashville, during our fall conference. Thank you, Mark + team, for being so responsive and creating a great experience from start to finish.
