Clue Chase was founded in 2015 with one goal in mind – make amazing escape rooms in NYC. In 2015 escape rooms in NYC were just beginning to open in New York City, and everyone had different ideas about what escape rooms could or should be. As the best Times Square escape room we wanted to provide a unique escape room adventure where players could solve puzzles, find clues, and search for alien artifacts across time and space.. We poured ourselves into creating something that went beyond just escaping a vaguely themed room. We wanted to create something that could immerse players in a cohesive narrative across several separate rooms/game sessions.

Our game masters believe that the ideal escape room experience should begin as soon you walk into our front door. You shouldn’t have to wait until you’re playing the game for the fun to start. In order to provide this experience we have created the universe of Clue Chase Labs. Clue Chase labs is an underground Time Travel facility trying to track down an incredibly powerful alien artifact, that they can then use for… entirely noble purposes. All our games are contained within this context, and feature Easter eggs referencing the other games for repeat players to discover. Furthermore, Clue Chase is constantly updating our escape room games. We do this because our goal is to create the best escape games in NYC.

What made a top rated escape room in 2015 is a very different from the expectations of players in 2019. As more people play escape rooms, it becomes harder to impress players who think they have seen it all – particularly with escape rooms in NYC & Times Square. This is always our goal – to entertain you, confuse you, and to (hopefully) make you feel just a bit like an actual genius. We hope you’ll enjoy what we’ve crafted for you, as thousands of players have before.
