Highly recommend! Best escape room experience I’ve ever had! My friends took me here for a birthday surprise last night and we all had so much fun. Everything was clearly created and run with real care. Big thanks to Patrick and Ann for making my birthday memorable! And just realized the name of the company is a nod to the Twilight Zone—another example of cleverness and thoughtfulness!

We had a great experience! We were a family group, ranging in age from 13 to 85. Everyone was engaged and had fun. Our host was funny and very helpful! It was our first escape room and found the casino puzzle to be perfect. I’m guessing you get fewer hints if you move along at a faster clip than our group. The puzzles were very clever and I loved the 80s tech.

Our whole group had so much fun! Based on the website I was not at all sure what to expect, but we were not disappointed!

We've done 2 escape rooms here in the past year (Operation Gryaznayavoda and Lombino's Casino), and each time was fantastic!! The staff are very fun and helpful, and they made us laugh so much! The rooms are really fun with lots of 80s-themed gadgets and nostalgia, and the puzzles are varied and unique. The games all start in a classic VHS rental storefront, and they keep those nostalgic vibes throughout the experiences. We were the same group of 5 each time, and finished within the time limits. We'll definitely be going back to try their Game Show, too! Awesome people running the games, the puzzles and stories are fun, wonderful experience top to bottom. It's an incredibly fun way to pass an hour in Portland! Definitely worth trying the rooms and supporting their small business!!! Shout out to Patrick and Anne, you can tell they enjoy their jobs, they are genuinely funny (thanks for the "tight 5" before our room, y'all had me cracking up just at the rules). Shout out to Chip Chipowski too, that was such a fun way to receive help within the room! You can tell the people here enjoy it, and their fun is infectious. We want them to do even more things so we can keep going back, so go on out and support their business. If you're still reading this, just go book it already, it's worth it!!!!

Operation Gryaznayavoda was absolutely fantastic. I'm not sure if I've done an escape room with better puzzle design, with a ton of very fun "aha!" moments that weren't just finding a key and putting it in a lock. Strongly recommend!
