Project Minotaur - CLOSEDQuest Room - HollywoodEscape roomIRLMy top room I’ve done so far! I’ve played it twice and both times were just as great.

Arena - CLOSEDMindTrap Escape Room - MurrietaEscape roomIRLI definitely do think this room is a little overrated.

The Invisible Man - CLOSED13th RoomEscape roomIRLI loved this room, I definitely did expect it to be super scary and anticipated something to pop out just because all of the other rooms were terrifying. I was still occasionally scared throughout the game but I loved the puzzles and most of them were straightforward. There was a particular puzzle at the end where I feel like it would be impossible to figure out if you weren’t told, but I still loved the atmosphere and set up of the room!
Red Giant - CLOSEDQuest Room - HollywoodEscape roomIRLThis room was interesting and it definitely gave Indiana jones vibes. You do feel super immersed in the story because of the game set. I remember having one particular difficult puzzle that took us a very long time to figure out. This room was good but wasn’t one of my favorites at quest room.
The StudyTHE BASEMENT: A Live Escape Room Experience - SylmarEscape roomIRLThe live actor definitely plays a huge part in the story and I loved every single moment of it! The story flowed well, the puzzles were straightforward and not too difficult and fit with the storyline well. I was definitely expecting to be scared since it is the basement, but this room wasn’t too bad!
The Butcher - CLOSEDDeceptive GamesEscape roomIRLI love games that start out split from the rest of your group. I was genuinely scared throughout the game. I loved the puzzles and how each one fit with the story. I also loved the set of the room and each moment throughout the game. Definitely one of the top 5 scary rooms in California!
Amnesia - CLOSEDQuest Room - Culver CityEscape roomIRLI do like the start of the game but I feel like the puzzles were relatively easy and a lot of times throughout the game, my group was confused as to what was going on or whether we were doing what we were supposed to be doing. We were definitely more confused than not throughout the game. The game also finished relatively fast and we were also confused at the end not knowing if it was over also.
Haunted Evidence [prev. Resurrection]Redondo Beach [prev. Quest Room]Escape roomIRLI loved how this room was satirical and had both elements of funny and scary. I didn’t understand how it was possible but once you get there, you’ll know. We were definitely scared throughout the game and I loved the story, how it immersive it was, and all of the puzzles and how it fit with the story!
Escape the Darkest Hour: Torture ChamberMission Escape GamesEscape roomIRLPart of my group who normally don’t do scary rooms thought this room was scary, but compared to other rooms in OC, this one isn’t too bad. It is definitely dark and spooky and there were some loud noises. The room set was nice and the story flowed well and the puzzles were straightforward, just some were random and didn’t really fit in with the story.
Gold Rush - CLOSEDThe Escape Game - IrvineEscape roomIRLI completed this game with 2 people and we were a little more experienced but it was definitely doable. However there was one puzzle that was particularly challenging and did not require brain use 😦 I still loved the storyline and the puzzles and how there were multiple rooms throughout.
Witch's CauldronQuest TavernEscape roomIRLI’ve heard great things about the other rooms at quest tavern, but this one was not too great. The puzzles were very straightforward and the set design was nice but something about the overall game was just mediocre.

Dollhouse V.2 - CLOSEDPuzzleMazementEscape roomIRLThis room has SO many puzzles and mostly lock puzzles but it was still interesting! The doll vibes definitely made it slightly spooky but not scary! The puzzles did tell a story and some were more difficult than others. The end definitely requires a lot of running out and communication!
