Breakout Operations LLC provides a real‑life escape room adventure for small groups. We are based in Lexington, Kentucky. Our business model is simple – provide a great environment for a group of friends, family, or coworkers to escape from the room before time runs out. This includes solving puzzles, cracking codes, finding hidden items, and more in order to escape.

Activate is a state‑of‑the‑art facility with a wide variety of gaming experiences. You and your group enter into a video game experience and become the players to actively and mentally complete challenges. Unlike virtual reality, Activate is a real‑life experience. Each challenge is under 3 minutes and is difficult to complete, making it almost impossible to succeed on your first try. Each player is given an electronic wristband synced to their player profile to track scores and game completion.

Compensation: $12.00 to $13.00 per hour
