Escape Room Beginners
Why You Don't Need to Be an Einstein to Have Fun at Magic Escape Rooms!
Have you ever thought about trying an escape room but held back because you're worried you're "not smart enough"? You're not alone!
It's a common misconception that escape rooms are only for super-geniuses or puzzle masters. Our games can be played by the escape room beginner, novice, or expert!
At Magic Escape Rooms in downtown Columbus, Ohio, we believe escape games are for everyone. Our goal is to provide an immersive, fun, and engaging experience, not an IQ test designed to make you feel silly. So, put your fears aside and get ready to discover why you don't need to be a genius to have an absolute blast playing our room escape games.
You Get Unlimited Hints
This is our secret weapon against frustration. Many escape rooms limit you to just two or three hints. We don't. We manage hints in a unique way that guides players in the game, as needed, based upon skill level.
Hints are used to give a gentle nudge, ensuring your team keeps solving, staying engaged, and having fun right up until the last second. As a beginner, you may need extra hints. And that is normal. The more people play, the better they become!
Our goal is to make it a fun adventure you will remember. Our Game Masters are experts at knowing when you need a boost to get over a difficult hurdle. We want you to be successful, but more importantly, we want you to have a great time!
Teamwork is a Superpower
You don't need the individual intellect of a puzzle genius. You just need friends! Our Columbus escape rooms are designed to be solved by a diverse team. Multiple brains working together is much more powerful than just one.
Success also hinges on communication and observation, not raw brainpower. One person spots a detail, another connects the logic, and a third works the lock.
Our multi-room adventures are designed to be non-linear so that multiple people can work on different puzzles simultaneously, ensuring everyone is actively contributing and no one is left standing around.
Clear, Intuitive Puzzles
We focus on creating unique puzzles that are logical and intuitive within the game's story. Our inspiration comes from real history and real magic, not abstract math or overly complex science.
No Obscure Knowledge: You won't need to know historical trivia or complex algorithms. Everything you need to solve the puzzle is right there in the room.
Immersion Over Confusion: Our design ensures that the magic of the story guides you to the solution. When you solve a puzzle, the "Aha!" moment is satisfying. Whether you're exploring the magical world of Howard Thurston in "Magician's Secret" or uncovering the genius of Thomas Edison in "Edison's Lost Invention," our games are crafted to immerse you in a compelling narrative, not to make you feel inadequate or confused.
