Very immersive design set that pays good tribute to Kowloon Walled City of Hong Kong. Puzzles are very clever and variable. Can be divided and conquered, though has some potential cheese solutions.

The Black Dragon was quite an impressive room! It delivers in storyline, set design, immersion, and game play. We had a group of 4, and it was pretty challenging yet fun! I would recommend a team of 4-6 players with different skill levels because this room was physically large and was non-linear, so you could easily divide and conquer. The is one of LA’s oldest escape rooms, so this room is also pretty old, however; it delivered in its set design, storytelling, and immersion. Go play Black Dragon! You will not be disappointed
Gameplay
This room is nonlinear and rightfully so for how large this room is. Everything made sense and flowed really well, but I will say that some puzzles were very challenging. Quite a mixture of puzzles that you will see in this room, but stayed true to the storyline and set design of the Black Dragon.
Atmosphere
I cannot say enough about the set design! It was immaculate and I enjoyed every moment of it. You felt like you were in the back alleys and there was so much attention to details!
Customer service
I loved our Game Master! She was very attentive to our needs, stayed in character, and blended perfectly with the Hint System.
Game tech
It was a bit of both mechanical and high tech.

This is a very immersive and highly decorated escape room. We entered as three people but would be helpful to have more people in this room as multiple puzzles are present at the same time. The NPC was good at acting, making the experience even more immersive.

This was a great and immersive room. The decor was amazing which really helped with the immersion of the room. Puzzles were unique but there was a mishap with the tech of one of the puzzles. However, the game master was uniquely intergrated into the storyline which helped with both progression and any technical difficulties. Overall a solid room.

This was one of my favorite rooms in LA. The set is amazing, the storyline and puzzles are top notch, and it’s non-linear, so everyone can have fun and contribute simultaneously. I highly recommend this room.

Did this right after Pyramid which we also enjoyed. But this by far was the best theme of an escape room that we've ever played before and hands down one of the funnest and unique. Things just flowed (although we did get tripped on some requiring a few hints). The way they incorporated hints (and even started the game) was also unique. Thoroughly enjoyed. Definitely worth the trip and would recommend. Escaped. Doable with a crew of no less than 3.

We beat the Black Dragon! A very fun room by one of the original Los Angeles escape companies. The set definitely stole the show here. Hollywood esque set design with some unique environments and props. Definitely my favorite so far at this location. Puzzles made sense and were themed appropriately. Great with a group of four, and playable at any age. An interactive start and clean gameplay. Play it!
