An escape room is like a board game come to life. In a themed setting, your team will work together to search for clues to solve puzzles and escape the room inside 60-minutes. Puzzles may include deducing codes, deciphering messages, and applying physics. Your game guide can also help with a clue or two if you get stumped.

Not at all. The cave is well lit and a game guide will be with you at all times. Stark Caverns is wide and high so there is plenty of room to play. Our themes are designed to be fun, based on historical uses of the cave and the surrounding area.

For the safety and enjoyment of all players, a participant may exit the escape game at any time. However, the clock does not stop, and re-entry may be limited.

Stark Caverns are partially handicap accessible. Daily tours are one-hour long and require you to walk approximately three-fourths of a mile. Wheelchairs can manage 85% of the pathways in the caverns. The other 15% are at the far end of the caverns and there are waiting areas.

No. The only pets allowed in the buildings are service animals. Please plan accordingly and never leave your pets in a hot vehicle.

No. Cameras & Cell Phones are not permitted to be used during the Escape Room. You will have an opportunity to take a group photo after completing the Escape Room. 

Stark Caverns is a constant 57-58 degrees year-round in the deepest part of our cavern, but heavy rain increases the water flow inside the caverns and increases your likelihood of getting dripped on (cavern kisses) during the tour. Our Ballroom (Area for events & camping) is located a few hundred feet from the large, open air entrance of our cave, which does affect the temperature of the cave during Winter months. Plan to dress warm or in layers when enjoying a cave tour in colder months. Snow doesn’t affect the interior of the caverns, but may make road conditions getting to the caverns unsafe. You may want to call the caverns before you visit if there are extreme weather conditions.

As a group, search the room’s contents for clues. Not every single thing in the room is a puzzle or a clue, some are just props. It will be up to your team to determine how to solve each puzzle or unlock each lock. There is no need to use force or brute strength when attempting to solve puzzles. Cave Escape requires brain rather than brawn. As you find clues, which may include keys, puzzle pieces, documents, and more, be sure to lay them out on a table or other surface and make sure that all team members are aware of them.

Each room is designed to allow up to 10 players.  Cave Escape is meant to be fully immersive, and using everyone’s ideas and problem-solving skills will help you beat the clock and escape.

While Stark Caverns welcomes players of all ages, the games are designed for players ages 10 and older. However, don’t underestimate younger players – you never know when their creative thinking may come in handy. If your party includes very young players, you may want to reserve the entire room for your exclusive use. Players under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

An escape room inside a cave is even more immersive because the setting is real. You will be playing the game inside a living cave with an active ecosystem. Not only that, but our themes are built on historical uses of the cave and/or the history of the surrounding area. Stark Caverns offers the only escape room inside a cave available in the United States.

To protect the natural resources of the cave, all clues are located at eye level or lower so there is no need to climb or stand on anything. Likewise, no clues are located in the dirt, walls, or natural waterways, so there is no reason to pry dig or damage to access clues. Areas that are out-of-bounds will be roped off. Please don’t touch the cave walls or formations, as the oils on your hands will stop their natural growth and cause permanent damage. Clues are not hidden inside cave walls or formations.

Please arrive 15 minutes prior to your booking to allow time enough to park, check-in, use the restroom, and sign your participation waiver. We do run on a schedule, and if someone in your group is running late, they will be allowed to join you, but the game will start on time. Think in terms of theater tickets, not dinner reservations.
