13th BasementExit Game OC - AnaheimEscape roomIRLThis was soooo fun. Several puzzles had me cracking up as an escape room enthusiast! We didn’t need any hints but I think that just means the puzzles truly make sense and there’s no leaps of logic required to put it all together. I think I had a big smile on my face the whole game. Thanks Christine and Jeremiah!!
Cold CaseCloud EscapeEscape roomIRLI really enjoyed how this was scary but not to the point of making me completely anxious the entire experience. I was still able to focus on the puzzles despite being a bit spooked! But the times they did get me, they got me real good lol. Joseph was great! He nudged us in the right direction when he knew we were close or that we maybe missed something but didn’t over step. I do recommend maybe 3-4 people max personally, I could see it getting cramped in there. 2 was good for us! They’re also generous with discount codes for later visits! Highly recommend
Whatever Happened To The Garretts?Maze Rooms - West LAEscape roomIRLThis game will surprise you. Amazing sets
Something's Out There!Maze Rooms - West LAEscape roomIRLThe set design of this room was the best part. Really fun spooky moments. Some of the puzzles didn’t make sense to me in relation to the plot and one puzzle was broken. Regardless this was a very impressive room for being in a little strip mall/plaza
Wrongfully ConvictedThe Escape RevolutionEscape roomIRLAwesome GM team. The settings of these rooms are A+. They do a great job of tricking you into unexpected situations. It wasn’t too difficult. Most of the times we just needed a nudge because we were missing something obvious

Twisted MatrixMaze Rooms - VermontEscape roomIRLOverall we had a good time. Some of the dialogue was hard to hear which made the plot a tad confusing. A puzzle in the last room got frustrating because we had to do it over and over again until I did something that seemed sort of like “cheating”, but I’m still not sure. My biggest issue with this room was the excessive use of generative AI. It was disappointing. All the artwork had that AI style to it and all the videos clearly came from Sora or whatever other generator there is now. Most of it wasn’t even necessary. I have a feeling the creator of this game would argue that it fits within the plot. I don’t agree. It was decorative and often could’ve just been excluded if they didn’t want to hire an actor or animator. As an artist myself, it’s hard to support the use of this. I’ve been to so many rooms that have videos with real people in them and not generated by someone on their computer. So my assumption is that they saved all this money by using this software yet they’re charging the same. I would rather my money go to real artists. This game was cool but that left a bad taste in my mouth.
