About Mystery Escape NYC

Mystery Escape NYC opened its doors in 2020 with a vision to create the most immersive and challenging escape room experiences in New York City. Founded by a team of puzzle enthusiasts and set designers from Broadway, we've crafted intricate scenarios that transport players to different worlds and eras.

What sets us apart is our attention to detail. Each room is meticulously designed with authentic props, custom-built mechanisms, and atmospheric sound effects that create a truly cinematic experience. Our puzzles are developed by experts in cognitive psychology, ensuring the perfect balance of challenge and satisfaction.

With three unique escape rooms and more in development, Mystery Escape NYC has quickly become the premier destination for thrill-seekers, puzzle enthusiasts, and corporate teams looking for an unforgettable team-building experience in the heart of Manhattan.

"I've done escape rooms all over the country, and Mystery Escape NYC is easily in my top 3! The Bank Heist room had such clever puzzles that fit perfectly with the theme. What impressed me most was how they created multiple parallel puzzle paths so everyone in our group of 8 had something to work on. No one was ever standing around bored. Worth every penny!"
