Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon Wand

My favorite escape room at Hidden Donkey! I even wore my entire Slytherin uniform set so I could totally immerse myself in the theme. Everything is just 10/10. 😁 #teamslytherin 🐍

This room was very well designed and thought out. All the puzzles were so much fun, the atmosphere made you feel like you were a real wizard student. If you love Harry Potter and pretending to be a wizard, this is very close to living out those dreams. My only criticism was that there was a part of the room, that bottlenecks because the puzzle was only big enough for 2 people to really do and during this puzzles there nothing else for others to do. The of the group may need to wait until the puzzle is complete, which is a perfect time for the rest of the group to admire all the detailed decorations in the rooms. It was such a fun room, I’m thinking about doing it again because the first group I went with did most of the puzzles and I don’t remember a lot of it. So I’m excited for the possibility of that, also excited the goblin’s secret room.

I truly had a great time and would highly recommend this escape room because of how immersive and magical it was! We were absolutely in awe! One of the highlights was definitely the added touch of having each player pick their own wand, say spells in synchronously with each other, and unlock clues without even touching the locks. Between Dragon Wand and their other room (Goblin Secrets), I would definitely have to say that Dragon Wand was my favorite! Personally, I enjoyed Dragon Wand more than Goblin Secrets because of the high tech, mechanical, and scientific aspects of the escape room. This one was linear as well, but I felt that we were able to plan accordingly and complete the puzzles more easily. This space is massive and you truly feel like you’re in the wizardry world! Hidden Donkey did a phenomenal job at utilizing the space that it has, and you can tell that a lot of hard work, creativity, and heart went into Dragon Wand. Give this one a shot. You won’t regret it!

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.

Such a magical experience. Never have I been a fan of Harry Potter but this room really immerses you in that wizardry world so well. Highly recommend

One of the most prettiest and creative rooms I've done. Hidden donkey has very quality rooms and I reccomend playing them back to back. Would say its dark in the beggining and the last room it's pretty easy to trip DO NOT RUN but, really awesome room 100000% reccomend.

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. 🪄
