Exit Strategy Wake

Exit Strategy Wake is Wake Forest’s escape room, on Ligon Mill Road. Teams get sixty minutes to scavenge for clues, solve puzzles, crack codes and get themselves out of a themed room.

Several different games run at the location, and groups drive in from Raleigh, Knightdale, Wendell, Youngsville, Zebulon, Cary and Morrisville. Reviewers on TripAdvisor, Google and Yelp have called it the best escape room they have played, and one group was still talking about it hours later. Birthdays and work outings both end up booked here.
