American Escape Rooms LLC

Since being founded in Hungary Europe, “Escape Room” retail sites have sprung up all over Europe and Asia, and are now beginning to appear in major cities across the USA. They mostly have two common themes; firstly their owners first experienced “Escape Games” in Europe and want to copy them, and secondly, they are single site businesses or have just a handful of locations.

The founders of American Escape Rooms do not need to copy; they include the innovators of the format from Europe, combined with a management team with a track record of success and rapid development, who plan to make American Escape Rooms the leading North American “Escape Room” brand.
