We have the best customers!

A customer sent a hand written thank you note, for a game she paid to play. Never in 8 years have I received a HAND written thank you note for a paid game. Very touching!!

Hey friends 👋

If you’ve been thinking about trying an escape room but haven’t yet—this is your sign.

At **Kato Escape**, every booking is just your group—no strangers, no awkward pairings. Just your friends, your family, your coworkers… figuring it out together.

We’ve had:
👨‍👩‍👧 Families with grandparents and kids
🎉 Birthday groups
🏢 Work teams blowing off steam
😂 And plenty of people who said “we’re probably going to be terrible at this” (they weren’t)

Right now, Cursed Hollow is our toughest room—runes, puzzles, a dragon, the whole deal.

If you’re looking for something different to do this week, this is it.

And seriously—bring your 105-year-old grandpa, the newborn, and everyone in between. If they can show up, they’re on the team. 😄

Step into Kato Escape, the ultimate immersive escape room adventure. Solve puzzles, uncover clues, and race against time in a thrilling experience designed for all skill levels. Your unforgettable challenge begins here!
