Quick Facts

⭐All games at Gnarly Escapes are private by default, meaning groups don't share rooms with other players, providing a more exclusive experience than many escape room venues
⭐The Green Belt Bank Heist room features an innovative end goal of collecting money from individual vault boxes rather than a traditional lock-based escape, creating a unique puzzle objective
⭐Experienced escape room enthusiasts with 250+ games played across 10+ countries rated Gnarly Escapes as performing 'well above the local competition' in Idaho Falls, praising its coherent themes and original elements
⭐The venue offers flexible group sizing with a minimum of 4 players for online booking, but accommodates smaller groups of fewer than 4 by texting directly, making it accessible to various party sizes

💡Book with at least 4 players for the optimal experience. Reviews from experienced players recommend 4 as the ideal group size, and it's the minimum for online booking. If you have fewer than 4 people, text 208-546-3062 to arrange a game.
💬The Bank Heist room is the most popular and immersive option, featuring a unique end goal and excellent atmosphere. However, be aware that some physical challenges exist—at least one player needs to be comfortable climbing and crawling in darkness, and hearing aids may have difficulty with the telephone puzzle.
💬First-timers shouldn't worry about not escaping on your first try. Many visitors don't complete the room their first time, but the experience is engaging enough to motivate return visits. Focus on enjoying the puzzles and teamwork rather than beating the clock.
💡Families with kids can have a great experience at any age, but children between 9-12 years old particularly enjoy the challenge when mixed with adults. Let younger players attempt the clues and codes themselves—it keeps them engaged and makes the experience more rewarding for the whole family.
💡Plan to arrive with plenty of time before your booked slot since all bookings must be made at least 1 hour in advance, and last games start at 8:30pm weekdays or 9:00pm Saturday. This ensures you don't miss your reservation window.
