    It's March 14, so how better to celebrate Pi Day than by escaPIng a room with 3.14(ish) of your friends? I loved how the mystery was solved at the end. This was such a cute room that was so cozy and Christmasy, we're sad to see it go!

    Another top notch room from Quest Tavern! The set design was like walking into a Willy Wonka factory and the puzzles matched it beautifully. (Also: free candy to munch on along the way, how do you not love that?) The kids and the adults all loved the game, and the teen proclaimed it the favorite of all the rooms she's ever done (n=8). Thank you to our GM Patrick for hilariously making the room fun for all of us. I got to beta test an early version of this and was impressed then but the completed room is a thing of beauty. Great job, Nico!

    Straightforward linear room good for beginners and easy for the experts. We may have done a lot of rooms but we still loved a few of the surprises. A good room build is always fun! Our excellent GM Joseph said this is the easiest of the three, so we're looking forward to finishing the story with the other.

    Great immersive set design, with some cool high tech puzzles befitting this smart house heist. Sleek modern feel to it. We liked the linear flow of it and the really fun touches at the end to finish the story. Also - we found the lobby puzzle and solved it, too!

    Like a certain favorite time-traveling UK box, this room was much more fun and bigger than I expected. Fun puzzles of varying difficulty with a great set. I loved the story and the sound of an old school ringing telly. (Rotary phones, you were lovely.) The room is mostly nonlinear with quite a bit to do, so I recommend a team of 4 or 3 very industrious solvers. Allonsy!

    First off: favorite room door entrance ever! That was a fun little surprise. This also gets points for how immersive it was, by which I mean it felt like a real elevator shaft and not a set design. This is a shorter room (45min) because there's not a lot of puzzles but you gotta manage your time well. (We finished with 1:18 left on the clock.) I think 2 or up to 3 is a good number as long as one person isn't claustrophobic and on the, er, thinner side. Also, don't be an idiot like me and get unnecessarily wet. Or bring a change of shoes/socks just in case you do.

    We had such a great time here. Really cute room with fun puzzles perfect for beginners. Design is adorably kid friendly, too, making this a perfect room for families or groups with kiddos.

    Instantly my favorite Christmas room! This surprised and charmed us with its hilarious references to those goofy Hallmark holiday movies, the top notch set design, the variety of puzzles, the emphasis on teamwork, and the ultimately heartwarming Christmas story. Extra points to our GM Mia who had us smiling and laughing every time. Top notch experience all around.

    Brought some escape room newbies with us for this and they were impressed by the gorgeous set design and the intricate clever puzzles. Even as non-newbies, we were blown away, too! There's a lot of puzzles to keep a team of 4 busy. The carnival theme is excellently carried throughout and the homage to Alice in Wonderland is such fun. Another delightful room from consistently satisfying Escape Room 66!

    Trapped! Escape Room - Los Angeles

    The game didn't flow as smoothly as Trapped's other games, but I liked the immersive scenario use of props and interaction with the GM. (Also caught those Alien references.) With a little puzzle updating, I think this could be even cooler, but it was still a worthwhile room for us.
