Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon Wand

A magical masterpiece! The Irvine School of Wizardry features some of the most gorgeous set design I've ever seen in an escape room. Every detail feels authentically magical, with tech-based puzzles that flow intuitively and create genuine "wow" moments. Our game master was awesome - super welcoming and great to chat with before and after the game. A must-try experience perfect for both newcomers and experienced players.

One of the best rooms I have done. The immersion of transporting you to a magical land is amazing. I have played both games and I loved both. The amount of detail in the rooms are amazing!

Another excellent experience. I bow down to the designer. Using every element to create such an enjoyable room. Again. another room that needs no improvement.

A good room with multiple tropes that hold it back. This room suffers from multiple classic issues with rooms that numb the fun: being unnecessarily dark throughout, a fair bit of easy yet tedious math, and the “mixing” of ingredients. All combined, these made it feel a bit like a Middle School science class, rather than giving you that “Aha” moment of truly great escape room. Ambiance and design were great, but we’ve had more fun in less produced rooms missing these pitfalls for sure. 7/10

Beautiful wizard room! Great production quality and puzzles. 🪄

This was a fun room with a “definitely not Hogwarts, wink wink” theme. I am sure that the “spellcasting” mechanic just involves the GM triggering things, but it was cute. The set design is very good. There is an “alchemy” puzzle that is the best (but also slightly dangerous) version of this type of puzzle that I have seen. I felt like the ending was underwhelming, but the room was good overall. I would recommend playing both rooms at this venue on a single visit.

They really created a wizardry school! The atmosphere, the décor, the music, the personas, the spell/potion books, everything was out of this world. We really enjoyed being transported there. Puzzles are mostly linear and easy, but they are very unique and… organic :) The last room was a bit rushed with only one big puzzle, nevertheless it complemented the rest very well too. The GM was a sweetheart, complementing our over-enthusiastic mood for finally doing this room :) Overall, do it! Not all rooms need to melt your brains out with difficulty.

Completed the room with four people (we are casual escape room players, maybe once every few months) with three minutes to spare, utilizing one hint. GM was so friendly and funny, explained the rules well. Room puzzles were complex and beautifully designed but not overly challenging. Everything flowed together well, one of the biggest strengths of this room was definitely the immersive design and hands on puzzles. Can’t wait to come back and try their second and newest room!

Loved this one! Great set design, use of wands and such interesting puzzles! We truly enjoyed this and our GM Said was great!
