FAQs
WHAT IS BREAKOUT KC?
Breakout KC is the #1 Escape Game in Kansas City, and one of the highest-rated escape games in the world. We are family-friendly and intentional about quality time and shared experience. Uncover secrets, hidden tunnels, trap doors, and more with our variety of escape rooms. If you are still wondering what the heck we do, this video from our blog might help.
AM I REALLY GOING TO BE LOCKED IN A ROOM?
The short answer is no; that doesn’t sound safe or legal! You will be in a room with a locked door, but it is equipped with an exit button and you are free to leave the room at any time.
HOW MANY PEOPLE PLAY?
Each room has a minimum of 2 players, as we do not allow single players. The maximum is 8 players per room. Players 13 and under must be accompanied by an adult.
On Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays we have a 4-person minimum charge for our private escape room experiences (see booking page for pricing).
WILL THERE BE OTHER PEOPLE IN THE ROOM WITH US?
Because of our commitment to your safety, we have transitioned to all Private Experiences. The only people in your escape room will be the people in your group.
HOW LONG IS EACH GAME?
Each game is 60 minutes, though we ask you to arrive 15 minutes prior to your experience for preparation and 5 minutes after to debrief and take pictures to commemorate your victory (or defeat!)

DO YOU OFFER DONATIONS?
We sure do! Just head over to our Donations page and fill out our online form. You can then expect a prompt reply via email!
DO YOU ALLOW ALCOHOL?
Guests 21 and older visiting our location at Park Place have the option to purchase alcohol during their visit.
As of today, our River Market location does not serve alcohol. We do not allow the consumption of outside alcohol in either of our facilities.
HOW EARLY SHOULD I ARRIVE?
Please give yourself some extra time by arriving about 15 minutes earlier than your start time. Games will begin exactly at your start time. We offer a five-minute grace period at the start of your experience, if some or all of your group has not arrived at your designated start time.
Parking is a breeze at our Park Place location, but the River Market can be a bit tricky. Use this Parking Map for assistance.

FRIENDS, FAMILIES, CORPORATE EVENTS?
Escape rooms are perfect for team building, celebrating birthdays, bachelor(ette) parties, and anything in between. While we don’t have a designated space to enjoy cake, ice cream and other party festivities, we can still help create a memorable experience for your group. Since our rooms are both immersive and locally designed, you’ll keep talking about it long after you Breakout!
