About The Game

Escape Rooms are a type of live-action adventure game where you and your team are “locked” in a themed room with other participants. While you’re in the room you need to find clues and solve a series of puzzles with the ultimate goal of escaping the room within 60 minutes! You can read more about them by clicking here.

Yes they can!

If there are going to be other adults playing with the kids, then there is NO AGE LIMIT. However, if you want the team to ONLY consist of children, then they would need to be 12 years old and above.

Please Note:

  • Technically, the complexity of our games and puzzles are designed for adults. But, we’ve had MANY groups of kids play, and they always have a blast!
  • Any children under 12 years old must be accompanied by adults.
  • A parent or guardian would need to sign a waiver for each child under 18 years of age.

You are NOT locked in the room. You’ll be able to leave at any moment. BUT, if you leave before your game is over you’ll forfeit the game (unless it’s an emergency).

No, not at all. None of our themed rooms are scary.

Don’t worry, we’ll let you out of the room! But unfortunately you’ll lose your #BraggingRights… =(

No you don’t.

However, it DOES help if you have a group of people who:
– Don’t mind teamwork,
– Are able to apply some “creativity” to their clue-searching methods, and
– Are able to spot the smallest details …Think like a detective!

No, but if you need reading glasses it may be useful to bring those with you.

No. You and your team will be the only ones in the room. If you need assistance, it will be given to you remotely by our Game Masters.

Unfortunately not. However, if you have a service dog please give us a call (760-349-6609) so we can make the appropriate arrangements.

Booking Your Game

It depends on how many people are in your team. The general rule of thumb is: “The more people you bring, the cheaper it is for everyone!”. Here’s a price breakdown…

For Any Of Our Rooms

Teams of 2 Players = $59 per person


Teams of 3-5 Players = $39 per person


Teams of 6-10 Players = $35 per person

Please Note:

  • Have more than 10 players? Call/text: 760-349-6609
  • Kids 7 and under are called “clue finders” and they are free with accompanying paid adult

You can check availability here on our calendar

All our bookings are Private. Which means you will NOT be mixed in with any other teams.

Because of our room’s difficulty, and the fact that our rooms are “private” (meaning: you don’t get mixed in with other teams) we usually have a minimum requirement of 3 players per team. That being said, if you have some escape room experience, and would really like to book for only 2 players we would allow it.

Keep in mind that your team size will determine the price per player:

For any of our rooms:

Teams of 2 Players = $59 per person
Teams of 3-5 Players
 = $39 per person
Teams of 6-10 Players = $35 per person

Please Note:

  • No discounts or promos are applicable for 2 player teams.

Yes you definitely can! In fact, if you click here you’ll see that we have a whole section that talks about using our escape room games for team building events! For any questions, or to book, just call: 760-349-6609

All cancellations or rescheduling must be made 24 hours before the scheduled booking time, otherwise a refund will not be given. If you need to cancel or reschedule the activity for any reason, you can call 760-349-6609 or email info@clueavenue.com.

Arriving For Your Game

Most days it’s not too difficult to find parking around us. In fact there’s TWO large parking lots right next to our building.

Please Note:

  • From April to September each year, Escondido city has it’s “Crusin’ Grand” event on our street every Friday. If you book a game on Friday during those months, please show up about FORTY MINUTES before your game starts. This will give you a chance to find parking, and still get here on time.

For every minute you’re late we will subtract from your game time (up to 20 minutes). After the 20 minute mark the game will no longer be enjoyable and you will lose your deposit.
