Was it a massive computer glitch? Sabotage? Or maybe something even more sinister? Thereβs no time for speculation β all you know is that you only have 60 minutes to escape, and you better not forget that research sample! Lunar Mission Escape Room in Koreatown, LA is a fairly difficult escape room game that will test your observation and reasoning skills on board a space station that is quickly running out of oxygen. This game is designed to be challenging, but with creativity, teamwork, and maybe a little luck, both experienced enthusiasts and clever first-timers might just find themselves on an escape shuttle home. Read more The year is 2088, and youβre about to be a part of history! Humanity has just embarked upon the next giant step in our quest towards the stars. We have begun constructing an intergalactic fleet of starships that will allow us to travel beyond the limits of our galaxy for the very first time. Your group is part of Project LUNA, a research program that has been searching for a renewable energy source capable of meeting the energy needs of this intrepid fleet. The heart of Project LUNA is the top-secret research station on the surface of the moon, where NASA scientists have spent years developing an energy prototype based on several unique organic compounds found there. With the program on the verge of a major breakthrough, you and your group of 2-6 are two teams of scientists assigned to the lunar station, with one team just about to join the other aboard the lunar station. Little do any of you know, things are about to take an unexpected turn, and you will soon find yourselves racing against the clock to escape the collapsing lunar station before your oxygen runs out!

The atmosphere of the room was great. The puzzles were a bit basic and the flow of the room was convoluted at times.

Wide variety of puzzle types, some of which were quite complex and multi step which kept things interesting. I'm still not sure what the story was in the end but the space was immersive and engaging. Didn't love there was a game master setting up and managing multiple rooms so when we asked for a clue there was a delay and they didn't know where we were in the room.
The flow was a bit choppy and one of the crucial puzzles wasn't operating correctly requiring gamesmaster intervention.
The plot was forgettable- I'm still my totally sure what was supposed to have happened. More like a series of puzzles.

This is definitely a harder room. In our experience, some of the puzzles didnβt make sense. I felt like some of the space wasnβt used efficiently, and the decor wasnβt the best. It could definitely use some TLC. Accessibility wise, there is one part which requires everybody to go through a smaller tunnel. Grand in scale, but suffers a bit on execution π escaped in 57 minutes as a group of 4

We had booked sky odyssey but accidentally booked at the wrong time so we had to do lunar mission which was a disappointment. The gameplay was very basic (mainly pushing buttons that light up) and the flow from room to room was mediocre at best. There was no excitement from this room at all. And when it ended we were all like βthatβs it?β. Both magic kingdom and lunar mission were disappointing. Wondering if sky odyssey is even worth it based on these two.

Overall, not one of my favorites. If you like linear rooms, you will not like this one. Also highly recommend a group over a pair and not good for people who have poor eyesight.
Some fun puzzles but some really mehhh ones too
Lots of red herrings and poorly designed buttons/keys + lighting was so low when unnecessary
Haily and Merriam were both fantastic

Everyone in the game needs to crawl, the sound with the walkie talkies made it hard to hear (had to ask to repeat the clue), and there was very low lighting that made it hard to read things for no reason.

The atmosphere was very immersive and really made you feel the urgency of the room. Our game master was also very understanding and helpful throughout.
Our game master was incredibly understanding and nice.

This was really fun! tough, but really fun! I would suggest going with maybe 3 people to explore and figure out what needs to be done. The puzzles were very creative!

I think this is one of my favorite rooms because I felt so accomplished that my partner and I ran this room with just the two of us and it always felt like we were doing something. The set-design and props connected the story and made it full-circle for me. Some of the props were showing some wear so maintenance is definitely needed but this room has great potential for the amount of the puzzles we were working on. Puzzles all made sense to us, but there was one puzzle that took a little while to activate even though we were doing it correctly, but was quickly fixed. Great date night for two! Three if you're feeling like you don't need the space.
Great room, some props needed some TLC.

I loved the storyline behind "Lunar Mission Escape." We found ourselves taking on the role of astronauts, working to solve a series of puzzles to secure our return from the moon. The set design showcases the orientation to detail. The space station setting and the astronaut props added to my immersion. The use of lighting also added to the ambience. However, I could tell that some of the areas could use maintenance. In this experience, you start off in separate rooms so communication is key. The difficulty level is generally balanced, and I do remember that most of the puzzles provided me with a sense of accomplishment upon completion. This would be a good escape room for four people, and it's totally doable with just two people who have some experience with escape rooms before. Parking may be a hit or miss since this location is in Koreatown. You would have to take an elevator to go up, and it may be a little hard to find. Plan accordingly.

βNot only was it beautiful, it was unbelievably elaborate--much more intricate and extensive...β
βThere is something interesting to see in Lunar Mission [but]... it doesnβt fail gracefully.β
