40 ThievesMindTrap Escape Room - TemeculaEscape roomIRLMy dad considered this the best escape room he’s been too. The puzzles were clever and interesting. Interactive elements were fun. The staff is phenomenal!! Definitely need a minimum of 3-4 for all the puzzles and we loved that it was non-linear so everyone had something to do at all times.
Poe's ChamberThe Great Escape Room - Arlington [prev. Escape Room Arlington]Escape roomIRLThis was a charming room. The decor was very thematic. A couple great puzzles and ciphers. One was broken unfortunately but the GM was really great and super friendly.
Tomb5 Wits - ArlingtonEscape roomOther The quality of all the rooms here is exceptional. You feel really dropped into the world. There are only a handful of puzzles and you must have 4 people to make it work, so it was a quick experience but very fun. Short and sweet.
Drago's Castle5 Wits - ArlingtonEscape roomOther This was such a fun adventure. The quality of the room and props and experiences was phenomenal. It’s not a traditional escape room, there are only a few puzzles to solve but the surprise at the end is sooooo worth it.
The Family CabinQuicksand Escape GamesEscape roomIRLThis was so much fun with some great puzzles and awesome nostalgia
DaVinci ChallengeLara’s Labyrinth - San Diego [prev. Quest Room]Escape roomIRLThis was a very cool designed room. Puzzles were cool some very unique, we hadn’t seen them before. But some were a bit obscure and very sensitive. So A for creativity but B+ for execution. Great game masters too.
Hunting Dracula [Formerly "V"] - CLOSEDLocked AdventuresEscape roomIRLOverall a fun experience. We were a big group and so it got a bit hectic at times but there were lots for everyone to do and the atmosphere was cool. Some of the puzzles were new to me which was awesome to see.
Mad Scientist - CLOSEDLocked AdventuresEscape roomIRLWe went through it a little fast, one or two puzzles slowed us down a bit but overall it’s a good beginner room. Some of the puzzles are super cool and on theme but all in all we just ran through it a little fast.
Game On: UNLOCKED ArcadeUNLOCKED: Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis was a really unique room. It incorporated games with the puzzles and that really helped engage some of our less experienced players in the group. Super fun!
EnchantmentRed Door Escape Room - EncinitasEscape roomIRLThis was a fun one room experience. Good puzzles, some lead into each other in a clear way some felt more self contained, like they could have been done at any time. Pay attention to the little details. All in all a fun way to spend an afternoon. We were two people and would have finished the room with another few minutes. It’s also 45 minutes instead of the typical hour but totally doable within that time frame. But there are no timers nor time warnings so if you’re used to 60 minutes the room will feel a bit cut short or rushed.
The TerminalEscape Rooms ConnecticutEscape roomIRLGood for beginners. Really well done atmosphere. Mostly locks though and a few puzzles.
The Disappearance at Fogmore ManorThe EntrapmentEscape roomIRLAmazing time! Great puzzles. Fun story. All the reviews and the game master says the game is linear but it’s strictly linear so there was plenty for the group to do together and everyone was able to contribute. The intro video is a little long so be prepared to be there closer to an hour and a half rather than an hour. Super fun! Definitely recommend!!

Houdini's HideoutArchitect Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLCould be great for beginners. Super nice game master. It was posted as medium level difficulty but I’d say it’s definitely more beginner level. It’s the fastest we ever escaped and I think we just felt a bit disappointed that an hour long room was done in 20 mins. But for beginners it would a great intro to escape rooms.
Outside In - CLOSEDTop Tier Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLSome fun puzzles and cool concept but a few triggers were broken and one of the got stuck and they didn’t tell us for a while so we just assumed it wasn’t supposed to open. So that wasted some time.
Atlantis: Dive To The Forgotten City - CLOSEDTop Tier Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThis was a fun one. It was a little confusing what the point was at first, but eventually we understood the goal. The puzzles were fun and it kept us challenged the whole time.
