The Disappearance at Fogmore Manor

The Disappearance at Fogmore Manor: Trapped in an apparently haunted room, our group determined to locate a missing business partner before the spirits of the manor stopped us dead in our tracks. Pros: This room was not only meticulously decorated, but the attention to detail in the props and the puzzles added to the overarching storyline. We loved many of the high-tech, mechanical puzzles. These were top-notch and demonstrate excellence in set and puzzle design. We played alongside a friend and veteran escape room player. We all agreed that we had never seen anything like these puzzles before. The puzzles were complicated but perfectly logical and solvable. We barely escaped but progressed at a good pace through each challenge. The game master was on hand to provide assistance with some mechanical difficulties. Cons: None. We really enjoyed our experience at Fogmore Manor and look forward to seeing more rooms like this one. Bravo!

We did a previous one before this escape room at tge same location AND BOY LET ME TELL YOUUUUUUU!!!! This guy is GOOD! The game keeps you entertained tye entire time. There is always something to do and so many clues. Its amazing. I recommend 100%. ALSO, the guy is super nice!

Really unique experience. Loved the story and the effects. Very hard puzzles. Definitely one for experienced players.

The story was good but the room was about average. Some puzzles didn’t flow well but there were also some puzzles I’d never seen before.

I really enjoyed this room. There were some creative components I’ve never seen before and I’ve done over 50 rooms. The backstory was well established. Highly recommended!

Amazing time! Great puzzles. Fun story. All the reviews and the game master says the game is linear but it’s strictly linear so there was plenty for the group to do together and everyone was able to contribute. The intro video is a little long so be prepared to be there closer to an hour and a half rather than an hour. Super fun! Definitely recommend!!

A solid, standard escape room. Puzzles were sequential, so had to be solved in order. We played with 2 people and only had 30 seconds to spare, but did escape! Probably wouldn’t be too challenging for a larger group that is good at escape rooms.

Good for beginners. Game was linear so it may be a little too easy for experienced players.

This was my 49th escape room experience. I have done the good, the bad, and the terrible. And also the amazing. Disappearance at Fogmore Manor does a great job integrating story, puzzle variation, "ah-hah" moments, and some very cool reveals. Unlike every other room I've done, Fogmore Manor does not start with a scramble to find everything you can in the room. You have a very clear direction from the start and there was no reason to get sidetracked because the puzzles led you in a very linear path. The puzzles were very clever. The decor was great. The atmosphere was among the best I've done. Highly recommend.

This room and company has a special place in my heart!!! It’s part of a handful of companies in San Diego that just OOOOOZE passion from the designers and owners. Great for a small group of dedicated enthusiasts. More fun if you have people that can oooh and ahh at clever puzzles. I played this years ago but hope it never goes away.
