40 ThievesMindTrap Escape Room - TemeculaEscape roomIRLReally fun room. Lots of non-linear puzzles so a little tough with only two people. Saw some really unique puzzles and very immersive.
The Speakeasy by Sweet Escape Games - CLOSEDVector Escape GamesEscape roomIRLDefinitely on the easier side. Most of the clues we’re very straightforward. GM was fabulous to talk to afterwards.
Catalina Pirate Challenge Escape Room CatalinaEscape roomIRLReally fun room. Would be hard with less than 4 people. Lots of layers and unique clues. Not scary at all.
Classified!The Escape Game - AustinEscape roomIRLWe actually came to play another room but found out they had booked it with an additional 6 strangers. I was caught off guard as I’d never done a community room before. But the staff were very nice and let us switch to a different time/room and luckily no one else booked so we got to do it by ourselves. Really good room. At first I thought it was going to be too easy but I was surprised at the complexity of the puzzles after the halfway mark of the game. We spent too much time in the first section and ran out of time with two puzzles left.
HeadcaseBreaking Point Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLFun game, high production value. Found 4 was the perfect number of players.
Rave Escape - CLOSEDEscape Room Era - Fontana [prev. Rare Moon Escape Room]Escape roomIRLA few of the clues were a bit weird. Found a random key that didn’t belong in the game which threw us off.
The Hex RoomCross Roads Escape GamesEscape roomIRLFantastic room for a group. All but one of our group of six completed the extra puzzle. Good puzzles and very clever set-up. Highly recommend
Zoe - CLOSEDEscapade GamesEscape roomIRLBlown away. Best escape room so far. Definitely scary. Don’t wear flip flops like I did. The team there was excellent and were passionate about the game. Shout out to Zoe and Andrew. We barely escaped and had so much fun throughout. Did “normal” not “extreme”. Don’t think we would have finished with “extreme mode”
The Last JobConfusion EscapesEscape roomIRLThe owners were super cool to talk to after the game. Can’t wait to try out the other rooms.
The Silence 113th RoomEscape roomIRLAmazing room if you like scary. This would have been better with a smaller group (we did with 5 but would have been better with 2-3). Chad was super awesome to talk to at the end and recommended some really great other rooms. Would do this one again to fully solve it. Not for the faint of heart.
Inheritance - CLOSEDOpen Door Escape Games - Citrus Grove Business ParkEscape roomIRLThere were so many broken props, the system kept having to get restarted. We ended up running out of time due to this and was very disappointing
Arrested - CLOSEDOpen Door Escape Games - Citrus Grove Business ParkEscape roomIRLThis was my second escape room ever and I did it with my in-laws and baby wearing my 8month old son at the time. Game was challenging but still fun. The GM was really great too.
Red Beards Treasure - CLOSEDVector Escape GamesEscape roomIRLThe parrot was really annoying and kept giving us hints even though we didn’t ask for them and said we wanted to do the game with very little assistance. Took away some of the fun
The Kitchen NightmareUnity Escape Rooms - Rancho CucamongaEscape roomIRLIt was okay. Felt a bit on the cheap side. There were a couple technical issues - one being the lock combination was wrong and they had to just fish out the clue because the GM couldn’t unlock it either. Overall a bit disruptive and underwhelming
Infection - CLOSEDUnity Escape Rooms - RedlandsEscape roomIRLOverly simple compared to most of the escape rooms I’ve done. Was honestly underwhelmed throughout.
