What is Xcape Room Warehouse you might ask? Well, let’s start with what is an escape room? Have you ever watched a movie about finding hidden treasure? You know what I am talking about... A group of misfit kids find a map in the attic, right? They have to solve a series of riddles and complete tasks to find the treasure from the map. Sound familiar? They are up against the clock, find the treasure, they save their parents’ house. If they don’t complete the tasks and riddles in time, the bankers get to tear it down and turn it into a golf course... It’s exactly like that! But you’re lucky, win or lose, you don’t have to sell your house. We have several rooms that are filled with puzzles, riddles, and a little magic! You and a group of friends will have sixty minutes, beginning when you enter the room, to discover its secrets and escape. If you get off track or need a clue and a bit of help, we’ll be watching.

OVERVIEW

Prepare yourselves for an epic adventure across the majestic landscapes of the United States! Our journey begins in the vibrant heart of San Francisco, where towering skyscrapers kiss the clouds and the salty tang of the Pacific Ocean fills the air. From this coastal paradise, we'll embark on an unforgettable expedition that will lead us deep into the heartland of the nation, to the charming city of Oklahoma City.

As we bid farewell to the bustling streets of San Francisco, we'll trade the city's symphony of honking cars for the hypnotic rhythm of rolling wheels beneath our feet. Vast deserts will stretch out before us, their barren beauty painting a surreal canvas across the horizon. Cacti will stand like stoic guards, casting long shadows as the sun dips below the horizon, casting an ethereal glow upon the land. As the miles melt away, we'll traverse towering mountain passes, marveling at the rugged grandeur of nature's architecture.

Our journey will not be without its moments of repose. Along the way, we'll seek refuge in quaint towns, where time seems to slow down and the gentle hum of everyday life envelops us. We'll mingle with friendly locals, eager to share tales of their heritage and traditions. And as we approach the end of our epic voyage, the twinkling lights of Oklahoma City will beckon us, promising a warm welcome and a symphony of new experiences that await in this vibrant metropolis.
