Las Vegas: Escape Game Forum Shops 60-Minute Room Challenge

Summary

Las Vegas escape room adventure at Caesars Palace with themed games

You’ll dive straight into a themed escape game at The Forum Shops in Las Vegas, racing against the clock with your team to solve puzzles and unlock clues. Expect laughs, teamwork moments, and real surprises as your local guide supports you along the way. You’ll walk out buzzing — maybe even craving cheesecake like we did.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed was the buzz — not just from the casino floor outside, but inside The Escape Game Las Vegas too. We’d barely stepped into The Forum Shops when our guide, Jamie, waved us over with this huge grin like she’d been waiting for us all day. There’s something about being handed a mission folder that makes you feel part spy, part kid again. I could still smell someone’s takeout from Planet Hollywood drifting in while Jamie explained the rules (I tried not to get distracted by it — didn’t work).

We picked “Prison Break” because my cousin swore it was the hardest escape room in Las Vegas. I can’t say we were ready for how fast that clock would tick down. The walls felt cold and rough under my hand — or maybe that was just nerves? At one point, my friend tried to decode a clue upside down and we all lost it laughing. Jamie checked on us through the speaker, cheering us on (“You’re close! Don’t overthink it!”). It’s funny how you forget you’re locked in a room with strangers after about ten minutes; suddenly everyone’s shouting ideas and high-fiving like old friends.

I’m still thinking about that last puzzle — honestly, we almost didn’t make it out before time ran out. My heart was pounding so hard when the final lock clicked open that I almost missed Jamie popping back in to snap our photo. Walking out into the bright lights of Caesars Palace felt weirdly victorious. If you’re looking for a day trip escape game in Las Vegas that actually gets your adrenaline going (and includes pickup if you want), this is it. We ended up grabbing cheesecake next door and reliving every clue we missed — which was… more than I’ll admit here.
