Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon Wand
Hidden Donkey
Escape room
IRL
The atmosphere was exceptional! My girlfriend is a huge Harry Potter fan and absolutely loved this room! It truly felt like you were walking into Hogwarts and could do real magic! The puzzles weren’t particularly difficult it just took a minute to figure out the right puzzle the clues belonged to at first. This room used a mix of mechanical and technical locks but mainly high tech that never seen before in other escape rooms. We had a group of 4 which was helpful I think less would’ve been a little more difficult but we made it through using our spells! Also heard from our GM they are opening up another room at this company within the next 4 months and it’ll be another wizard themed room so we are super excited and want to come back for that!
The Isle of Wonder
The Greatest Escape
Escape room

This game was very interesting in the sense that we experienced positive and negative. The positives were the theme and the details of the room were amazing felt like I was in the jungle. The puzzles were pretty interesting since they had to do with different things and weren’t a lot of mechanical locks. This room would’ve been easier if we had more than 2 people for sure. The two of us enjoyed it but my girlfriend has some negative experiences lol. The negatives were we weren’t able to figure out how much time we had left, and the music/noise in the room was very loud that we couldn’t enjoy what was happening or just got freaked out. Also, with the background they chose for the hints was hard to read with the different colors. Lastly, the beginning video shown was very long and we just wanted to get started already. We will see if we return for the next room.

This company has absolutely amazing customer service and helped my group when we couldn’t book online. The atmosphere and set design in the rooms was 10/10!! It was my groups first time doing a two part escape room. Not only were we trying to escape but we were trying to solve puzzles to find bottles for points. We were a little skeptical because we were worried it would take away from the game but it didn’t in any way! It was very fun with lots of puzzles to go around. I would say it’s mostly nonlinear so getting a good group would be helpful. My group loved this room and can’t wait for the new one they are coming out with!
The Curse Of The Black Knight
EscapeX Rooms - Irvine
Escape room
IRL
This room was fantastic! Definitely up there with one of my favorites with the vibes of trying to break the curse of the black knight. It was linear and a good group of 4/5 due to small spaces but also it’s a lot of different levels of floors. It was the most physically active room we’ve ever done so far. We’ve done all the room for this company and it was my favorite out of the 3!
Playground
The Escape Game
Escape room

This room was very well done from the theme to the puzzles! It was a mix of mechanical and technical when it came to locks. I felt like I was back in grade school trying to solve problems in a classroom and going through the jungle gym. I went with a group total of 8 and I felt that it was a good number! Everyone in my group has done escape rooms before and together so it was a fairly easy room to do! The only downside to this company is that they don’t do private rooms. That being said we did unfortunately have people book the other spots by the time it was our reservation. However!! The staff that checked in the strangers offered them a different time slot at a different room and we ended up not having to do the room with strangers! I truly appreciated this as I was nervous about it not being private.
The Family Cabin
Quicksand Escape Games
Escape room
IRL
I loved the room itself with feeling like it was entering your family’s cabin. The puzzles were mixed with mechanical and high tech which were super fun to do! There was only 2 of us and I have to say it made it seem like we were on a time crunch based on how many puzzles there were. The room is linear which helped us as a team of two. We had a few issues along the way such as our GM randomly came into the room to check on something then left which left us confused. Then the last puzzle which is what we needed to “win” the game didn’t work so there wasn’t a very anticlimactic ending. The GM didn’t help in that either because he (I didn’t get his name) said “it’s not working but you did win.” The tone just wasn’t very excited as it should be when you beat the room. The GM may have killed our vibe but we didn’t let that ruin our game experience! Still a fun room to do!
An Office Escape

The office escape room was amazing I am a huge fan so i geeked out on the room! The clues were definitely on the more difficult side but it was worth the challenge! Trina the game master was very helpful!
Starship | Interstellar Escape
Wild Goose Escapes - Fullerton
Escape room
IRL
One of my favorite escape rooms ever!! So immersive and high tech games I have ever played! This one is fun for all ages and a must do. It’s an escape room that also feels like a video game at times. So my group and I did this room during beta testing and had so much fun even when there were a few items needed fixing it was a great time! A group of 4 is a perfect amount as there is a lot of puzzles to do in this game.
Prison Break
The Escape Game
Escape room
IRL
I honestly think my girlfriend and I would’ve enjoyed this game a lot more if we went with our usual group but that’s okay. There was still good things about this room like actually feeling like you were trying to break out of prison! It is a very hard room so I would suggest a group of about 5-6 because a lot of communication is needed for the beginning! There were a ton of puzzles as well so there a lot to figure out. There was somewhat of physical activity but this can be avoided if someone doesn’t want to. Definitely a great game to check out I’m really excited to try the other games at this company!
Escape the Darkest Hour: Torture Chamber
Mission Escape Games
Escape room
IRL
First off just like the other reviews mention I am also a huge scaredy cat so this room had me on my toes the entire time! The room set up was amazing really felt like you were in a torture chamber and had you panicking about time with special surprises along the way. A group of 3 or 4 is recommended but at least have one person in your group that can handle the scariness so they can concentrate on getting the puzzles solved and not so much of getting scared! The puzzles itself weren’t difficult but when you are racing to get it done and it’s hard to see they become hard to solve. This is the room if you want to get your adrenaline pumping the whole time! It was a fun experience overall probably one of my top 3 favorite escape room!
