OPERATION MINDFALL Hybrid Spy Adventure
A private one-room spy mission with real locks, a mission iPad, and scannable clues around the room. Operation Mindfall blends hands-on puzzle solving with interactive tech, giving your group a different kind of escape-style experience.
Your team has been recruited to stop a dangerous mind-control threat before it spreads across the world. Crack real locks, use the mission iPad, scan hidden clues around the room, and uncover the antidote before time runs out.
What to expect
Real locks and physical puzzles. An iPad that serves as your mission hub. Scannable clues are placed around the room. A private, timed mission for your group only.
Best For
Players who want real puzzles plus tech-driven gameplay in an escape-room-style mission. Date nights, friend groups, and curious first-timers who are ready to try something different.
Not Ideal If
If your group is specifically looking for a heavily themed, multi-room traditional escape room, we have five of those— book one here.

My fiance and I are avid escape room lovers and found ourselves on a stop during our road trip in Amarillo. We decided to check out Amarillo Escape and Mystery and we’re so glad we did! The owner and designer, Keith, could not have been more hospitable, or fun to be around. We ended doing two rooms because we were having so much fun. The rooms are well thought out, and the puzzles are clever. Many laughs, and some screams were had!

The ESCAPE ROOM was so much fun. We did "THE MISSING" and We barely made it out with second left. The tension was HIGH at the end. Lol. Whole family had a blast and Katy was amazing. Showed up for us in a last second booking and helped make the experience so much fun. 🙌 will come back again and try another room.

People there are super sweet and make you feel like family! The Cabin was so much fun and threw in puzzles we have never done! Tons of fun and will be returning.

This company sets up a murder mystery at my husband's Christmas party every year. It is always engaging & we have a great time (although we rarely get it correct). I highly recommend checking them out!

This is such a fun escape room! I’ve loved each room I’ve played, and most recently we did the Christmas room. This was a fun room with creative puzzles and Kyla was an incredible clue master! Such a great experience!

Not your average mystery dinner! We had never gone to one of these but I can honestly say- We are SO glad we did. The owners put some serious thought and creativity into the experiences. If I could give double stars I would. Recommend

This was a fun escape room. It is a bit hard to find though! The outside looks older but the inside is well kept. The employees were very friendly and helpful! We did the cabin escape room. The decor and puzzles were great! We did need a few clues but were able to escape!! It had some puzzles that we hadn’t seen before which was nice! Overall I definitely recommend it for families with older kids. Well done!

Visited AEM for company team building activities. We had a wonderful time here. The team split in groups of 4 and 5 and it was the perfect size to search for clues and work out the puzzles. Staff is very friendly and personable. Keep up the great work there. Will surely visit again.

We had a blast solving this puzzle. We took several fifth graders for a birthday and made it out of the hour long escape with 30 seconds left. The kids loved it! Staff is amazing.

We had our son’s 11th birthday party here! They did the jungle escape and had a blast! We brought pizza and they were super accommodating and helped us make our son feel special. Highly recommend this place for parties, date nights, or team building exercises. We will be coming back for sure!

My family went here for our first escape room experience. We loved it. We did the nightmare before christmas. We are definitely going back to do all the other rooms.

I’ve completed three escape rooms here and loved the creativity and detail in each of them. So fun to have a local place with homespun rooms! Also, Michelle, who designs the games, is lovely. I strongly recommend!

Booked this place for my daughter‘s birthday. It was beyond amazing especially loved how Kyla, Javier, Michelle and Keith went above and beyond for my daughter and her guests. We will totally book again.

Keith and his wife were wonderful hosts, taking time to "school us" on escape rooms and strategies after our time expired. This was my first visit to an escape room, and I was challenged to the max! We'll be going back with our family from out of town! I also appreciated that the Cabin Room was not scary, and they had several options that weren't, either.

Driving through the area when a snowstorm forced us to call it a night, and how lucky we were! If we hadn't stopped for a hotel, we wouldn't have stumbled upon this charming and challenging escape opportunity (room number 145)! There are so many things to love about this business starting with their late hours, ease of walk-in booking, welcoming and vibrant waiting room, myriad rooms with new and clever themes, and the genuine good nature of our gamemaster, Jackson. Oh, and I don't think we've seen a room for $25 per person since before COVID.
We only had time for one room, so we asked for fun and a challenge and were well rewarded with Christmas Nightmare, a play on the movie "Nightmare Before Christmas." The set-up did a terrific job of having the Halloween vs Christmas divide, and we loved the decor. There were tons of items in the room, but the sticker labels were very clear about what was or was not in play. This room has so many puzzles that generally had to be followed linearly and were often simple, one-step solutions, but the variety and number of puzzles on top of finding the necessary items kept everyone in our group busy. With five of us, we found ourselves bumping into one another on occasion, so I don't think I'd try to for more than six active players. Two could do it, but it would be tough, for sure.
The hint system was an intercom which worked fine, and Jackson was definitely aware of what we were doing and where we needed to look, next. This is a huge positive in our experiences! He got more specific than we would've liked on one puzzle, telling us how to solve rather than hinting at it, but it was one of over a dozen puzzles, so we didn't mind in the long run.
Truly, the only negative thing about stopping here to escape is the feeling of regret that we can't stick around to do any other rooms. Time to work on our excuses to come back through Amarillo.

We were a large group that did the Jungle Escape. We had a wonderful time! I would highly recommend this spot for group outing or date night. Our room was entertaining with the perfect difficulty level. The staff was helpful and accommodating, especially Kyla and Jerrot!

First timers so really didn't know what to expect. Ended up having so much fun that we're already planning another trip!
Be prepared to think quite a distance outside the box! The clues are right in front of you but not easy to see! We didn't "get out" but felt we did well all things considered.
Staff is friendly, the experience is terrific and we're still laughing about how much fun we had! Will definitely return and try again!!
Oh and by the way, don't put the locks in your pocket and forget them. Had to return because my better half took one out to dinner! LOL

We had our young adult group from The Church at Quail Creek participate in the "Mistletoe and Mystery" dinner that is offered by Amarillo Escape and Mystery. It was an amazing time, everyone had a blast and the people with Amarillo Escape and Mystery were fantastic and really designed and organized a great mystery dinner that gets everyone involved and is interactive and fun!

We had 4 in our party and tried the Christmas nightmare puzzle room. It took 4 hints and about 10 minutes over the timer but we managed to finish it. It was an awesome experience and we'll definitely be going back even though Oogie Boogie got us this time. Big thanks to Kyla for bringing the humor and making an already fun experience even more fun!

We had a large group for a team building event and they were so kind and accommodating. We loved it so much that we came back the same day just for fun. Kyla, Javier, and Ryan made it a great experience. We did Jungle Escape and Missing and it was so much fun.

Amarillo Escape and Mystery goes above and beyond with immersive rooms and just the best stories! We have done multiple escape rooms with them, as well as their mystery dinners. They are just so creative with the rooms; I would highly recommend. We can't wait to go back!

As someone who has been to many escape rooms, I have to say this was my favorite. The whole place has a really cool vibe. The jungle escape was the perfect difficulty for anyone, with unique puzzles where you had to look for details. Overall, my family had an amazing time here, and I would totally recommend it to anyone wanting to have some family bonding.

I went here for a second date and it was an amazing decision! The room that we had gone in was set up great & the live actor was amazing, he scared the hell out of us! The owners are very nice and love what they do so definitely go and do all of their rooms, we will definitely be back for another!
