Fantastic escape room! My daughter and I did the Dynamic Duo room and the puzzles were of a good variety and made us think and work together as a team. We really enjoyed it! The entire facility is super clean and we were very impressed by the staff and their positive attitudes and helpfulness. We definitely will be back. Thanks for a fun afternoon!

Was a really great time and the whole family was talking about it for hours. The staff was very friendly and passionate. We completed the hyperspace room just going slightly over the time limit and they let us finish the last puzzle. It was very thrilling and will definitely be back to try another room.

Such a great escape room experience, the room was well crafted, the puzzles were challenging but left no 'what do I do now' moments.The production value was excellent and the staff were friendly and welcoming! Would highly recommend this company for any and all escape room adventures in Calgary!

Did the Dynamic Duo room with my date last night and was very pleased, will definitely be checking out more rooms here! This was my first time at Escape Ops and while it wasn't quite as high-tech/flashy or story heavy (this particular room at least) as some I've been to, the puzzles were solidly fun and challenging, and the incredibly warm and friendly customer experience more than makes up for a few bells and whistles. I did not catch the names of the people working last night, but they were awesome! The unique concept and required teamwork aspect of Dynamic Duo was really great too.My number one "yes!" for this place is that it is extremely welcoming for LGBTQ+ people; gender inclusive bathroom facilities, we were asked about pronouns, and so on, which as a queer couple, we really appreciated. It's so refreshing to feel so seen and accepted in a general "public" space like this.

Literally the best escape room I've ever been to. Fantastic staff, very friendly, room was set up impeccably. If you're on the fence, do it. Go to this escape room company. Seriously. You won't regret it.

I got trapped in one of the walls for roughly 15 minutes. Luckily, I ended up getting out by going back through the same way I got in. Would go again, but would avoid hollowed walls.

I was interconnected from the space room and the shrine room during construction period and found my way into the walls of the building, it was fun hallucinating to the new construction fumes.

Our group booked 2 rooms back to back, Hyperspace and Shrine. I didn't catch the name of our game master but all of the staff were amazing including Loki the office dog. Both rooms were well done, everyone in the group had something to work on. Shrine really did justice for Zelda fans with nice little touches and throwbacks. Our group will be returning to complete the other room and the 2 person room.

We completed "The Shrine" this evening and had a fantastic time. It was challenging, but not so challenging we got overly frustrated, and when we did ask for a hint, it was provided enthusiastically and completely sans judgement by our charming host. The puzzles were innovative, the themed details in the room made it all the more fun, and the staff members were really friendly and extremely pleasant. It was a truly enjoyable experience and we can't wait to go back to try another room!

My wife and I chose to visit Escape Ops because it’s the only place that facilitates a 2 person escape room. As soon as we arrived we were greeted by Dan who helped us run the game and walk us through everything. We ended up completing the room and have to say our experience was a 10/10. The room was challenging yet fun and we could tell Dan had a passion for his work and enjoyed what he did. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a fun activity and especially if you’re a couple looking for some date night plans!

The owner at the place was so kind to us! I went in as a group of three and did hyperspace. The room was extremely throughout, super cool mechanics and overall amazing theme! The room we booked was actually for a larger group but we were able to complete it after a bit of extra time. Super great place and probably one of my favourites!

The rooms at Escape Ops are some of my favorite in the city. Whenever someone asks for a recommendation they are on the my list. The puzzles are well designed, and diverse. The production value on Shrine is especially impressive. I can't wait for them to design another room.

Great experience with Escape Ops! Dan is super helpful, welcoming, friendly, and fun! We can tell that he is passionate about making the experience memorable! They made us feel welcomed and encouraged us to have fun - we definitely did! The atmosphere is also amazing and we can’t wait to be back again! ☺️ (October 2021)Update (January 2023): my friends and I went back and did two more of their rooms! We were definitely blown away because of how well everything was put together.Zeke and JJ were there to help us and their energies and sense of humour are awesome!!! We had lots of fun with them as well! 😂

Recently celebrated my birthday here. Booked 2 rooms. Had a great fun time. Staff working here very nice. Should note that there's no birthday discount, but a general discount if you book at least 4 people per room.

Escape Rooms come from the little details. Between the incredible warm staff and our group actually swearing with excitement I can fairly say this is without a doubt the best one we have all experienced.Looking forward to coming back for another!

What an amazing experience! I did "Cognition" first around Christmas 2021. Mind blowing from the first dizzying effect. Just when you think you're ahead of the game, suddenly everything is "upside down"! But as amazing as Cognition is...This week, my kids and I experienced "Hyperspace"! Holy space heart attack. Massive! Immersive! Challenging! But most of all...Fun. Honestly, there was one moment I actually forgot we were still on planet earth. (Not kidding) Proud to say, we finished the room with a mere 45 seconds left!Looking forward to trying Dynamic Duo and Shrine. Based on the first two rooms, they are certain to impress!Almost forgot...the staff is amazing. Danny is the enthusiastic, evil genius behind the creations and his staff is super friendly and really seem to be rooting for every team to do well and, most of all, have fun.Don't miss out on this revolutionary experience in Calgary!

We did two of the rooms on our trip to Calgary. They were both amazing! We really liked Dynamic Duo and the Shrine. Both were very immersive and high quality! Great production value. We highly recommend checking them out. We’ve done a ton of escape rooms over the years and these were our favourite so far. Hoping to come back and do the other rooms.

My partner and I did the 2 man Dynamic Duo escape room, was so much fun! Really excellent room and as a 2 man room took lots of team work and thinking out of the box, will definitely be back again!

This is the best escape room experience in the city. Hands down. We have done quite a few but this is the best put together. The rooms are intricate and well thought out but also manageable. A must if you enjoy escape rooms!

We had a last minute decision to try the game. It was my first time and I am glad I went. I forgot his name but the staff went absolutely above and beyond. They are nice, welcoming, and enthusiastic. The game itself is very interesting and fun. Our group had so much fun and we had so many memories together. Definitely coming back to try out their other themes 💗

Went to the Hyper Space Room, very friendly and informative staff. Challenging but fun games, and clean space to work in. Overall really fun experience and worth every penny. If your contemplating an escape room, this is the place to go!

This place exceeded all of my expectations! First of all, the hosts were AMAZING and kept us busy while we waited for the room to be ready. We had fun chatting about their art, which is all for sale (at an awesome price).We chose to do Cognition. The first two sections seemed very simple but took a while to put all of the information together. Compared to other escape rooms in the city, Escape Ops had a very unique use of technology (plugging things in, or entering numbers found in the room). Cognition had a very cool twist at the end that I don't want to spoil, but it's definitely worth trying!I can't wait to go back and try Hyperspace.Update: have now completed every room here. The attention to detail is absolutely amazing. The skill in constructing their rooms is unmatched and it's incredible to think that the lovely owners thought these rooms up in their own minds. I honestly don't want to do any other escape rooms because Escape Ops can't be beat. Huge fan!

I wish I could give this place 11 stars. My partner and I just played the Shrine room and were blown away! Not only is the room beautiful but the puzzles are so unique and well thought out. The staff member who helped us was absolutely amazing, so enthusiastic and friendly! You can tell that they are very passionate about what they do. I can't recommend this place enough, everyone drop what you are doing and go to Escape Ops!!!
