The Weeping WitchCross Roads Escape GamesEscape roomIRLExcellent game. It was definitely one of the scary ones. Live actor was great. Puzzles were kinda of hard with the fear factor. Room is doable with 2 with experienced players but you would have to pay for minimum of 4. The business as usual is high end, great decoration and atmosphere. Things were high tech. Small space for such an exciting room. Game master was nice and made the room enjoyable to distract us from fear factor.
HeadcaseBreaking Point Escape RoomsEscape roomIRL50th room and I am glad I picked this room for it. It was definitely hard. The story was well done, the production value was high. The room was high tech. I am glad there were many puzzles to do. Not many combination locks, which I liked. The room was not linear until you got towards the end. I liked the mood and feeling of the room, definitely got scared unexpectedly at times. No live actors or jump scares. The puzzles required out of the box thinking. There was one thing that was not supposed to be easily opened but it did not affect the flow, but we did wonder how we would have done if we did not accidentally opened it. It felt intense as it should. We gave the game master a good show with our thinking and cursing haha.
Lab RatHatch EscapesEscape roomIRLI finally got to play this room, it was so much fun and different. The puzzles were not so straightforward and not the typical padlock / code. The game master was very nice and helpful, she knew when to help, intervene, and get us through the story. Very immersive feeling and very cute set design. Definitely need at least four people to make it easier? But I can see how some people could do it with only 2. One of the items were broken but it would have been interesting if we had to do it. 😂 I am very excited for their next room, I can see the place really cares to give everyone a different type of room escape experience.
Time MachineNot Another Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThe story was cute. Looks were definitely deceiving from when we first stepped in. We thought we were done but it kept going. Very innovative with the use of space they had. Setting felt more immersive as we progressed. Some puzzles were hard and some puzzles were straight forward. My favorite puzzles were at the end, very creative and different. I like how they really pushed the “Time Machine” concept throughout the experience. I usually have expectations/preferences for how a game should end and they met it.
13th BasementExit Game OC - AnaheimEscape roomIRLGreat story and game, I can not wait to see what other rooms they are thinking of next. The game masters were very nice and just fun in spirit. The game itself is not as difficult, but still head scratcher at times. My team and I really tried to enjoy the room and puzzles instead of trying to do it quickly. Immersive and decor were very nice and detailed. We did get frustrated but we were able to figure it out and I appreciated the game master from holding back from giving us hints. Game does has some scary moments, but it was not a true horror feeling to me so hopefully none horror fans will enjoy it. Ending was great and we really were laughing and smiling before we left, so all in all a good time!!
Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon WandHidden DonkeyEscape roomIRLThe puzzles were kind of linear, but all made sense. Very interactive and immersive, gamemaster was amazing and fun. It was not as difficult with 2 players (1 experienced vs 1 semi experienced). I could see experienced players finish it quickly. I took my time to enjoy the setting and puzzles. Well worth it!
Hope EndThe Ministry Of PeculiaritiesEscape roomIRLThis was a nice experience, it was not meant to he scary but I was a bit. The live actors made the experience unforgettable from when we entered the lobby. Innovative puzzles and surprised how we were able to do certain “things” that usually are part of the “No” rules. I cant wait for their other rooms if it was going to be like that we experienced. Continue hiring the right staff cause so far amazing experience. Very immersive, puzzles range from easy to hard.
Loot Wars: The HarvestKing's Eye EscapeEscape roomIRLWow this game was hard, we barely finished it on time. We were a group of 5. Love the interactive tasks between the puzzles and items. I liked the story and how it related to the puzzles, I appreciated how the information/clues were everywhere 😜 I would go back for the continuation of the story.
AtticEscape Hotel HollywoodEscape roomIRLAt this moment I see this room is rated as easy, I do not know why. Unless I am mistaken but it was hard for me. We did not make it out of the room, some puzzles took longer to figure out and cause us to be trapped. We rated as a medium to high difficulty. The setting of the room is amazing, very scary. The room was a bit too dark to see some of the puzzles though. The story was well done, the puzzles were innovative.
Lunar MissionMaze Rooms - VermontEscape roomIRLVery immersive and so much fun. It was hard probably because it was one of rooms I did as a newbie with. Gamemasters were amazing at the time. I liked how we had costumes and some parts of the multi room had many nice touches and surprises, one of my top favs. Puzzles were a mix of hard, medium, and easy.
