Can you escape this room in 60 minutes?
Players trapped inside a dark,
mysterious room uncover strange
objects and hidden messages that
might contain the clues to help
them escape—but will they make it
out in time?
The heart-pounding challenge
is what draws countless players
to Puzzle Break, America’s first
“escape room” experience, located
right here on Long Island. Escape
artists seeking to test their mental
might can choose from one of four
different challenges to see if they
have what it takes.
“‘Escape the Lost Temple’ is perfect
for ages 8 and up and great for
birthday parties, team-building
events and even just a night out with
friends or family,” says Maria Reyes,
the general manager of Puzzle Break
Long Island. “When you come and
play, you’re going to love being
transported into the world that
we’ve created as your group races
against the clock to locate and
replace the goddess’s stolen
artifact, break the curse
and ‘Escape the Lost
Temple.’”
“Escape The
Lost Temple,”
one of the
more exciting
challenges,
features
cool special
effects that
transport
challengers
into another
world. What sets
it apart from the
rest is that the story,
the hieroglyphics and most
everything that the team will
uncover while trying to escape
is true to historical form. It is
based on Etruscan history and is
historically accurate.
Since 1982, our family-owned-and operated funeral home
The Escape
Room
has helped countless families throughout New York and beyond
Besides
being
a fun night
out, the games also
serve as an excellent team-building
activity for the next corporate, offsite,
or private event, or for team
gathering. Teams of adventurers
will join forces to find hidden
clues, solve puzzles, and unravel a
mystery before the 60 minutes run
out.
There is no age limit. Contestants
can bring their 80-year-old
grandmother or their 8-year-old
nephew and still have a blast. There
are also in-room game masters in
all of the games to provide hints if
asked, and to ensure that everyone
is having fun and understands
what’s going on.
Puzzle Break also offers three
other challenges: “Escape from
20,000 Leagues,” “The Grimm
Escape,” and “Escape the Midnight
Carnival.” Each can include up to
10 to 12 players.
Tickets are $30 per person. Puzzle
Break Long Island is located at
180 Michael Dr., Syosset. For more
