Candy Factory

The Candy Factory was overall a fun experience. I went in with some inexperienced players and we did overall get stuck at one puzzle. There were a couple of small issues with puzzles that we had to ask for hints on. It's a fun theme and I enjoyed it.

Candy factory was much harder than I thought. Expect to go back and forth between rooms to complete the later half of the puzzles.

The room took much a lot more effort than I expected. I expected something similar to their other colorful/cute room in Pleasanton (Back to Childhood). This room was very well made and the theme was really great. The puzzles were engaging and the non-linearity added to the experience. There were a couple of frustrating puzzles and some puzzles that were easily solved but tedious to complete, but overall this one was my favorite room at this location.

Very fun for the whole group. Unique and challenging but creative puzzles. Highly recommend

This room was fun with a lot of bright colors and cute puzzles. Nothing too difficult, but you did need to be observant. We had a fun time and our GM Shawn was really friendly.

The theme in this room was so fun, which I think amped up my enjoyment of it. The puzzles were fun and felt satisfactory to do. I felt a lot of joy when the thing happens (you’ll know what I’m talking about when you do it too). It was a nice sized room for 2! It reminded me a lot of TEG’s Playground. Some of the puzzles were arguably better in this room too. This was probably my favorite room at this location. The only thing I didn’t love about it was the scent based puzzle. I think some of the scents were pretty faded and hard to smell.

A brightly colored, vibrant themed room that is sure to get your energy up - the Candy Factory was a solid experience for our friend’s first escape room. While the rest of us have done escape rooms before, she enjoyed the gameplay because it does deliver on the puzzle content and the cool interactions. This is a room where there may be players who do not see all the puzzles. I personally felt that the flow was a little disjointed at times and there was a scent puzzle at the end where the scents started to blend together, so look out for that. Some of the props also felt out of place because why would you have laminated paper in a candy factory world? I still enjoyed the ending though. The feedback for getting the right answers for the inputs was immediate so that was gratifying. If I look at the experience overall, I had a great time and some details could be worked out to make it an even more impressive build. I have not tried their other rooms yet but I can’t wait to go back and maybe even make the trek out to their Pleasanton location.

Fun room. We've done quite a few "candy" themed rooms and this one had a unique charm to it. The puzzles flowed well and were challenging. One involved a sense that we aren't good with and it held is up a bit causing us to do some guess and check. The GM was nice and they have a good lobby area.

Stimulation overload but so much fun, and special thanks to John for indulging my team with acting out our Willy wonka scene.
