Skip the drive to the escape room. Big Idea Mystery Lab brings the case to your living room, backyard or cul-de-sac: a detective host, a mystery to unlock, codes to crack, clues hidden in plain sight and a reveal the whole party calls out together.

Our Atlanta team covers metro Atlanta and North Georgia, from Cobb and Cherokee to Gwinnett, Forsyth and Henry. Birthdays, daycare days, church nights and library programs all work. Bring power and a bit of room; we bring the case and pack it all away when it's closed.
