The Man From BeyondStrange Bird ImmersiveEscape roomIRLGreat experience overall, the performances by the actors were absolutely amazing and the set from start to finish was very immersive. The puzzles themselves weren’t particularly hard but fit well with the theme of the story
UndercookedOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLVery fun take on an escape room, you are putting together recipes rather than trying to escape the room. Set design and puzzles were all immaculate However I am very competitive and some cons here is that finishing everything faster does not add any points to your score, and also there were apparently bonus points to get depending on when you finish certain recipes and this was not told to us at all
The CryptEscape Hour AustinEscape roomIRLFairly immersive room and a lot going on, so good to do with three or more people. The puzzles themselves weren’t very hard, but the hard part is the number of puzzles to piece together. Highly recommend!

Paradox Project 2: Το Βιβλιοπωλείον [The Bookstore]Paradox ProjectEscape roomIRLOne of the best escape rooms I’ve been to by far. The entire building is used as a single escape room and the puzzles are very unique but not impossible to solve. There are a lot of different rooms and settings to take you through the story and is extremely immersive.
Wong's ChineseThe Perfect EscapeEscape roomIRLThe design and props were amazing and sets this escape room apart from other escape rooms. The owners used to own a Chinese restaurant so the design was very authentic. Pro: - there’s a lot of puzzles to work through which made it a lot of fun, suitable for 3-4 people to go. We went with 7 people which felt like too much, there was some crowding and a couple people were standing around at times without something to do - puzzles weren’t too hard, good for more beginner players as the dots were easy to connect Cons: - there’s was one puzzle that was very time consuming which I personally am not a fan of - the props were pretty dated, you could see visible wear and tear on some of the items used
Nightmare HotelGame Over Escape Rooms - KatyEscape roomIRLOverall a pretty good escape room with a couple of jump scares. The puzzles were not particularly hard but were very interesting and different
Midnight In Hong Kong - Team Vs TeamOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLThe team vs team aspect of the game is very novel, I’m a very competitive person so it was really fun for me to see how we were doing and be able to see the progress on the other team as well, even though we didn’t cross paths and were working on different puzzles. The puzzles themselves were not super hard (we were able to get through with only one hint, but only because we couldn’t find one specific mechanism) but very on theme. For teams, for 90% of the time we were solving the same puzzles but differently themed so it made the competition very fair. However the other team had trouble with one of the unique puzzles given the color of things was not clear which made it harder for them, hope they fix that and make the colors more distinct The story is also easy to follow and flows well with the puzzles which I appreciate given a lot of other escape rooms only make a theme to follow rather than a story
Dead Man's CoveEscape Hour AustinEscape roomIRLThis is a very good beginner escape room. All the puzzles needed to connect some dots and were fairly straight forward without directly giving you the answer. For any more beginner players, this would be a good one to get your toes wet and get used to the logic of escape rooms in general. The theme was very fun and the games inside were entertaining!
Jazz ParlorEscape My RoomEscape roomIRLOverall a standard escape room but is designed well and puzzles were very interesting. A little bit of outside knowledge is helpful but not necessary
