what is an escape room?

Lock Chicago is an innovative Escape Room adventure located in Evanston, serving the greater Chicago area. For those who aren't familiar, an Escape Room is a space that has been decorated, designed, and decked out with a theme and puzzles that you and a group of friends will have an hour to solve. Traditionally, the end-goal of an Escape Room is to, as the name suggests, Escape the Room by solving the puzzles and unlocking the front door.

However, unlike other Escape Rooms, you won't be locked into a room at Lock Chicago--you will be given alternate end-goals for each challenge, so really we're a Challenge Room adventure rather than an Escape Room.

Sunburn

Book Sunburn

You've finally located the fabled Sun Treasure! You've planned, you've prepared, and you've made it to the chamber just in time for the start of the eclipse, but do you have what it takes to solve the light puzzles of the chamber and grab the treasure before the eclipse is over?

Matsuri

Book Matsuri

The village of Matsuri is on the verge of peace. The rival gangs that run the village have decided to end their decades-long-conflict by celebrating with a festival, but the Drum of Order, the symbol of unity, has been stolen!

You'll have to use your brain and teamwork to solve the traps in the hideout of the thief and recover the stolen artifact. But hurry! You only have one hour before the festival starts, and if the Drum of Order isn't recovered the gangs will blame each other and start battling once more. The village of Matsuri depends on you!

Malfunction

Book Malfunction

The mad Dr. Keplar has gone too far! Pushing his obsession with steampunk tech to the limit, he has accidentally opened up a wormhole into deep space. Since the good doctor was the first to get whipped out into the void, it's up to his trusty team of assistants to decipher his manuals and depower the machines keeping the void open. But hurry, you only have 60 minutes before reality as we know it suffers an abrupt and fatal relocation!
