Escape Rooms

All Private bookings: Your group has the room all to yourselves.

Milwaukee’s #1 Escape Room. 60 minutes to solve puzzles, riddles and clues.

Save Milwaukee is different from other escape rooms. Our rooms are large, allowing us to accommodate even big groups and still make sure everyone has plenty of space. Our missions are completely immersive- you receive a briefing via email then enter on your own. And we’re local, not a franchise- both of our rooms are original and themed for you to have 60 minutes to solve puzzles, riddles, and clues to save Milwaukee from doom!

Reviews

What a Blast

What a fun experience, even if we couldn’t save Milwaukee :-). Highly recommend this unique adventure for everyone of all ages.

Had a GREAT time

We had a team building get together for work and had a fantastic time. We didn’t Save Milwaukee but sure had fun trying. Shlomo is awesome!!

Would HIGHLY recommend

I went to Save Milwaukee with my family and had a fabulous time. It was thrilling, engaging and overall very very well done. We had a fantastic time together and would highly recommend Save Milwaukee to anyone looking for a great night out.

This stressed me Out

I mean, towards the end I could feel my blood pressure rising and my heart racing and my face getting more and more red. But wow – was it ever fun! And we won! We had six people and I don’t know it can be done with less, but I’m sure the game is somehow tweaked. Highly recommend!!

Great Time

I went with some coworkers and we had a great time! It was challenging! A word to the wise- be mindful of every moment you and your team is in the room. Come with really good hearing! This is a wonderfully complex escape room. We loved it and will be back!

What Makes Save Milwaukee Different?

At Save Milwaukee, you are given a mission to complete, not tasked with escaping a locked room. Our clues are intriguing, fun, and designed to require teamwork. Never grim and gory. At Save Milwaukee, we never put you with strangers- no matter how many agents your group has the room all to yourselves.

Teamwork

You’ll have to work together to accomplish your mission! Great for a date, party, or fun night out!

Clues

You”ll be surrounded by riddles, puzzles, and clues. Maybe even a secret doorway or hidden panel

Fun

An exciting, interactive experience. You”ll be immersed in your mission for 60 minutes. Forget about the outside world!

If I’ve Done the Device or the Tailgate Already, Should I Still Come to the New, Remodeled Device?

Oct 12, 2020

That’s a good question. If you’ve done the Device or the Tailgate already, is it still worth it to come back now and do the all new, remodeled Device? A word of background. Both the Device and Tailgate closed in March 2020 for Covid. I kept them both closed throughout...

McSnooty’s for Families

Jul 10, 2020

I opened Save Milwaukee Escape Rooms about five years ago in the Marshall Building in the Historic Third Ward. I began with two rooms there- The Device and the Tailgate (the Tailgate began as ‘Rig the Election’ then later switched to its current theme.) My thinking...

How We Are Going To Reopen Safely

May 16, 2020

We will reopen McSnooty’s on Brady street first, and sterilize the room with UV light between groups and take other steps to insure safety.

F.A.Q

Still have questions? We have the answers.

Will we be paired up with strangers?

No. At Save Milwaukee no matter how many agents are in your group you’ll have the escape room all to yourselves.

Is there an age limit to play / participate in the escape room?

We recommend children be at least ten years old to be able to participate fully in the mission. Children under 14 should also be accompanied by an adult.

Is parking available?

In the third ward, for the Device and the Tailgate, on street parking is available. Please be sure to watch the meters and signs. Weeknights and weekends several private lots offer parking along Water Street. Two blocks to the South, on the corner of Water and Chicago streets, parking is available at the Historic Third Ward parking garage. For McSnooty’s gallery of Fine Art on Brady street, there is meter parking on Brady street and unmetered street parking on the surrounding side streets. There are also several paid lots in the area as well.

What if I'm not good at puzzles?

All sorts of escape room challenges await you. Everyone will contribute.

What if we get stuck and can't figure something out? Do we just sit there the rest of the time and scratch our heads?

I can’t say how, but you’ll receive some hints. . .

What if I need to change a reservation?

Of course plans can change. We ask that you try to provide a week’s notice, especially for weekend bookings.

Can my group come at a time that's not on the schedule?

Yes, please contact us and let us know when you’d like to come.

Can I reserve both rooms The Device and The Tailgate together for a group of 11-18?

Yes! Give us a call at 414-628-5103 for availability and special pricing. Groups your size might also consider McSnooty’s Gallery of Fine Art on Brady street, which is for 8-22 agents.
