Sci-Fi Escape Room Houston

EXCLUSIVE: A Locktopia original escape game

Step into Locktopia Houston’s newest and exclusive Sci-Fi escape room game, Aurora, where your team is full of investigative reporters on the trail of a mysterious figure known as Voltiac. Your research has uncovered his true identity—Whitmore, a disgraced scientist banished under suspicious circumstances.

Navigate a hidden alleyway, unlock the secrets of his shadowy southwest Houston warehouse, and uncover the truth before Voltiac sets his sinister plan into motion.

Will you uncover the secret before it’s too late? Oh yeah, and there are some big surprises along the way. One is green and not little.

Aurora is related to a real-life news story from all the way back in April of 1897. Forget the Roswell Alien crash because Texas has its lesser-known version, and it happened way before! Learn more about the Aurora, TX UFO crash before you play with it at Locktopia.

Want more UAP fun? Go play our room Gateway next. Aurora and Gateway pair well together in a day’s escape outing.

2025 Bullseye Award winner for “Best Sci-Fi Theme”

Don’t just take our word for it. Aurora has received national attention and a prestigious award for escape rooms!

2025 Bullseye Award winner for both Best Sci-Fi Theme – (ESCAPETHEROOMers.com)

ESCAPETHEROOMers.com says “The set design was vibrant, yet there was an intriguing ‘darker’ element lurking beneath. The creator masterfully captured the mystery aspect of the game’s theme. There were several hidden reveals that took us by surprise. Our favorite moments occurred in the latter part of the game. The special effects and animatronics of a particular prop truly made the game stand out. Actively “assisting” a mechanism to work and eventually completing the mission was thrilling.”
