Our first visit to Oklahoma City so visited the Memorial with family who live here. A beautiful memorial! The setting is serene and thought-provoking as we walked around the reflecting pool, the walls, the survivor tree, the chairs each with the name of a victim, and the fence with notes and memorabilia. Very sobering, and more so with the stories our family shared of that day and the weeks that followed. (We did not visit the museum, due to time constraints.)

Seasoned escapers - they have a room for you! My husband and I have done lots of escape rooms all over the place so we typically look for the most challenging and immersive experiences. We did the Tides of Treason room first and we absolutely loved it. Definitely challenging but fantastic gadgets and unique tricks and puzzles. Super fun room and not just a bunch of locks either. We were stumped a couple times but made it out with 8 minutes to spare. The theming in that room is so good and there are great surprises. We loved it so much we came out and asked what other room was available on the spot. We did the Conquered Embassy - their other more difficult room. It was still really fun and well themed but Tides won us over for sure!

We had a group of 8 people and completed two rooms in one afternoon. Without a doubt operation was a first class escape room experience. The puzzles were challenging and fun, some of the puzzles were truly unique, the story lines were very apropos to the challenges, the custom mechanical processes added to the fun of the games, and each of the two rooms were packed with plenty of challenges and puzzles. The hints were well timed, and took into account the skill level of the group. Anyone doing an escape room for the first time might find some minor issues to nitpick, but do not be misled by these perceived issues. In comparison to other escape rooms, this company is by far the best in Oklahoma. The owner/operator of these games was very expert and really added fun and excitement to the entire experience. BTW: I do not recommend doing two games in one day for most people because each one can be mentally fatiguing. Doing just one of these games would have made our weekend a blast.

I had a flight sampler of four beers (10th Street Pale Ale, Golden Spike, Blood Orange IPA, and East Coast IPA) for under $10. The staff seemed different from my last visit, but I was informed the owners are still the same from last year. Drink orders are taken at the front bar, while food orders cooked by Calico Joe’s offering dips, wraps, nachos, and the like can be ordered from the back counter. TV’s showing MLB opening day games were on the many tubes. There is a table stacked with loads of board games. The place is a very pet friendly place and offers free, secured Wi-Fi. Recommended.

Axe throwing finally comes to Oklahoma! Sooners can now grab a drink and throw some axes with friends at Bad Axe Throwing's newest venue. It's a great venue for birthday parties, corporate events, or group outings - pretty much anything you can celebrate, you can celebrate it by throwing axes.

This zoo is impressive in how much room they give each species of animal. The new Elephant area and Asia experience is super nice. The food is good. It is very large and can take more than one day to experience it all. There is a train/ guided tour if you can’t walk that much. The children’s playground is fun. They have date nights for couples and special events for holidays.
