Irvine School of Wizardry and the Goblin's Secrets

Wow! Just wow. Extremely immersive, SO imaginative. The puzzles were really unique, and there was a MAJOR wow moment. It was really fun doing spells and the way the puzzles flowed kept things interesting. Can’t wait to do the other room here.

Woweeeeee, I didn’t think it possible to out do their original room but this one blew it away. So much fun and so much magic.

We absolutely loved this game! It’s been compared to Harry Potter, but I wouldn’t really say that. I think it’s a cute wizard themed room that has its own storyline/characters. This room was a lot bigger than we thought. All the puzzles were very fun to figure out and fairly easy to piece together. There’s a room that is very interactive—and without giving anything,—has definitely been the coolest experience we have had in an escape room! Absolutely enjoyed this game!

My fav of the two rooms here. Absolutely fab goblin/wizard/not-not-Harry Potter room. Some very special effects in here. Highly recommend for families and enthusiasts who love magic rooms and anyone with a pulse!! 🪄

I thought this was the better of the two rooms at Hidden Donkey, but they are both good and I do think this room makes more sense if you have already played the Dragon Wand room and been introduced to the wizard school, spellcasting mechanic, etc. The set design is really good, including a super cool “transportation” scene. I felt like the ending was, once again, abrupt. They added a bonus puzzle for us since we were ahead on time, which I appreciated (and it was a good puzzle). Definitely recommended, preferably as a two-room experience.

Hidden donkey is the best of the best!

A combination of set design, puzzle complexity, special effects and visual effects, storytelling… This was one of the best rooms I've ever seen

Very whimsical, very atmospheric room. The immersion level is top notch, although since they're incorporating another room using some common areas, slight break with puzzle markers on them. Puzzles are very spot on to the environment, use of spells and tech supports it quite well. All make sense and are pertinent to the room. Slight small hiccup we got caught on due to a missed key being noticed, but the way it was hidden was almost obscure. Not sure I would call it anyone's fault really, but a bit of an oof either way.

1000 points to House Hidden Donkey for this exquisitely designed room! The immersion level was amazing - it definitely had Warner Bros quality sets. Puzzles were creative and some would challenge the cleverest of Ravenclaws. A perfect sequel to their other room!

Wow such a fun filled room.
