Beat The Bomb

Everyone run and go check this place out! You will not be disappointed.Hands down, 10 stars!! Highly recommended!I visited BEAT THE BOMB tonight for their Soft Opening and I have not had this much fun in a long time.. Omg, it was so much fun and laughter. From Jas greeting me with a warm smile and welcoming personality, Timara encouraging me to play the game when I registered because I wasn't going to play and checking in to make sure I was ok and Hope providing excellent service with the food. This place definitely great vibes and a fun atmosphere! Even though my team, One Fam did not beat the bomb, I will definitely be back again for revenge I'm going to beat that Bomb! Team One Fam

This was my first time here! Three friends and I played the Paint Bomb Mission. Booking:There's an option to select Slime, Paint, or Foam Bomb Mission. You'll require a minimum of 4 players (6 max) to play. Standard tickets will cost you $44.95 (per person) which includes admission, photos, and a video. FYI - photos/video are taken after you are splashed with paint (if you fail the mission of course). A deposit is required when booking.Facilities:When you enter, a security guard will ask for your ID (FYI - no outside food/drinks allowed). After a certain time (8 PM I believe) it's 21 and up only. Facility was clean and decorated from head to toe. I can't comment on their food and drinks as I ate before I arrived. After checking in your group is to come up with a name (my group - Bumble bees). A single locker was provided for all 4 of us to place personal belongings. When I visited, a DJ was there playing music - created good vibes. Paint Bomb Mission:Wear comfortable clothing and dress light. Before starting the mission, employee mentioned this is not like the escape room = you can walk out the door at any time (need to remove an article of clothing etc.) Certain rooms (Lazer Maze) will cause you to break a sweat. My group played through 4 rooms (Hack Attack, Echo Chamber, Floor Grid, and Lazer Maze) to get to the final room (Cyperbot) where we were blasted with paint!!! The more successful you are in rooms 1 - 4, provides you with more time to complete the final mission in room 5. Before entering the final room, you are provided a hazmat suit, shoe covers and a helmet. I was covered head to toe, not a single drop of paint on me; keep your head tucked and you'll be just fine. After completing the mission, you can just chill and watch the monitors as other groups are completing their missions. People in the lounge can view your group in the final room. Paint seemed to be the most requested; Foam Bomb was WEAK!!! My recommendations:- The music was soo loud inside the building. It was difficult to hear instructions from employees. - Slow down the instructions inside the rooms. They prompt fast and only display once. Would highly recommend to others! Great activity for adults!!

We had a blast (pun intended!) at the new Beat the Bomb in South End. It's a unique and fun experience that the Charlotte neighborhood needs for all ages. You can have a group of 4-8 people to work together to complete puzzles and escape rooms. The last room is where you try to "beat the bomb" or you get blasted with paint (or foam - you choose). The staff was friendly, explained everything clearly, and made sure we were all set up before starting. We went with VIP which you got a free shirt, free videos of your game experience, a free drink and appetizer. For all of that its a pretty good price! The signature cocktails were super sweet and sugary, I wasn't a fan, but they do have a full bar. The dips also all came out cold, but the pretzel bites were delicious. Our video footage wasn't sent to us so the staff had to re-download it all onto a USB for us which took about 20 minutes. Overall, I'd recommend Beat the Bomb if you're looking for something exciting or to bring out of town guests to. It's a great addition to the area, and I'll definitely be back!

My daughter had a friend have a birthday party hereParking is horrific but they had THE BEST time!

Everything about this place is fun. My girls and I had a great time from the moment we walked inside. Straight to the bar and ordered Green Tea Shots!!!! So good we had two rounds. We then headed to the rooms and it was so much fun. The rooms made you put on your thinking caps, memory skills and your flexibility; which then added to your time actually getting BOMBED at the end of it all. We chose to be paint bombed but there's also foam and slime bombing. This spot is dope...there's a DJ and you can rent a galley way (I believe that's what it's called) for a party. Parking sucks over here but that's the only downfall.

SO MUCH FUN! I went with six friends to celebrate my bday. I wanted to do something different. Beat The Bomb delivered! We had to rack up points in four challenges. One was like Mission Impossible trying to get across the room avoiding laser beams! You had to run, think, strategize - teamwork makes the dream work! We chose foam at the end - less traumatizing than paint or slime. They have a bar with GREAT Jell-O shots and strong cocktails!

Came here with coworkers and had so much fun I plan to come back with family soon!! Expected this to be an escape room of sorts, but had more interactive teamwork games which I really enjoyed (my favorite were the lasers).

We went to Beat the Bomb on vacation in Atlanta and LOVED it so when they emailed us a promotion for our next visit we had to try the one in Charlotte! I will say overall the experience at Charlotte was more underwhelming and confusing, less clear on the rules and support from the crew than Atlanta. Sadly we did not get our photos back (we got them immediately after Atlanta and it's been almost a day at Charlotte so nothing crazy) and getting in touch with them via phone is impossible so we just have to wait for an email response to get the photos and videos that come with the experience, but other than that it was a great time!

We had a great time, the games were fun and challenging. Loved the vibes and environment. Would definitely recommend for a family fun day or work event. Drinks and food all tasted good.

customer service sucks- refuse to answerphone- refuse to answer fb messenger - they will not get my group visiting them! we will take our $600+ and go to an escape room!
