Bustout Live Escape Game, featured in the Theme Park Directory category, offers escape room experiences. However, customer reviews indicate several areas of concern regarding the quality of the experience.

Customers have reported that while the game itself is "fun," it lacks a compelling storyline to tie the clues together. Additionally, parking at the location is described as "not great," which may pose a challenge for visitors.

Several reviewers have expressed dissatisfaction with the perceived value of the experience, stating that it felt "very expensive" for what was provided. The storefront and hallway are described as "hastily thrown together" with "random furniture," creating a poor first impression.

The staff's demeanor has also been a point of concern, with one reviewer noting that the employee seemed unenthusiastic and merely "doing a job."

The escape rooms themselves are criticized for lacking atmosphere, described as having "slapped some paint on the wall, cheap posters and locked boxes." The rooms are also reported to be dirty, giving the impression that they were not cleaned after construction.

For those unfamiliar with the Harry Potter franchise, the clues in the rooms may be particularly difficult to decipher. This suggests that the rooms may not be accessible to a broad audience.

Overall, customer reviews suggest that Bustout Live Escape Game may be focused on "making a quick buck" with a "slammed together operation." The experience is described as a "total rip off" by some reviewers.

Key areas of concern noted by customers:

  • Lack of compelling storyline.
  • Poor parking.
  • High cost for the experience.
  • Hastily assembled environment.
  • Unenthusiastic staff.
  • Lack of atmosphere in the rooms.
  • Cleanliness issues.
  • Difficulty for those unfamiliar with Harry Potter.

Based on customer reviews, Bustout Live Escape Game may not provide a high-quality or immersive escape room experience. Potential visitors should consider these concerns before making a reservation.

The game is fun, but not much of a story line to follow to hold the clues together. Parking for the location isn't great either.

I felt that it was a very expensive hour for the experience that we had. First of all, the storefront location was very hastily thrown together, random furniture in the hallway. The woman that was there was not very excited to accommodate us...just a job obviously. The rooms we were in had NO atmosphere at all. Slapped some paint on the wall, cheap posters and locked boxes. The place was dirty like it wasn't cleaned up after construction. Having no knowledge of Harry Potter, the clues were hard to figure out. All in all, it looks like they are out to make a quick buck with their slammed together operation. A total rip off!

Not a great experience, but not the worst. The room was built pretty crappy, locks are not good quality. But by far the worst part of the experience was the extremely unfriendly person running it, she acted like it was a big inconvenience for us to be there, after spending $100 for 4 of us, will not be back.

Something different from the usual night out. Had a great time with a group of eight. Doesn't take long enough to fill an entire night out, but combine with a group dinner and drinks afterwards makes for a great evening. I've recommended Bustout Live Escape games to many friends - it's just too bad that you can only do a room once, luckily they have three different ones. I'll definitely go back again!!

The person running it was very friendly. But, the room was not fairytale themed like the description, some of the puzzles didn't make sense, and the locks were janky. Also they are not technologically advanced. We were not able to get a clue within a timely manner.
