The business runs nine themed escape rooms, including High School Reunion "Gone Bad," My "Crazy Ex," Double Trouble, United States Customs - "Entry Denied," and "Public" Library. Rooms run 30 or 60 minutes, and groups of up to eight players work through clues, riddles, puzzles, and brain teasers to escape before time runs out. Break Escape welcomes players from Arlington Heights, Buffalo Grove, Palestine, and Schaumburg, and hosts date nights, birthday parties, bachelor and bachelorette parties, corporate team building events, friends' get-togethers, and youth groups. Credit cards are accepted except American Express, along with Apple Pay.

Players are asked to arrive at least 10 minutes before their scheduled time for a briefing. Private parties can be booked outside normal hours by phone. Groups are not locked in and may leave at any time, though solving the puzzles is the goal. A full group of eight is not required, and since Covid each room is reserved for a single group. Personal items, including cell phones, can be brought into the room, but phones cannot be used to solve puzzles. The recommended minimum age is 13, and anyone under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.
