Moriarty's Manor

This room contained fun puzzles that I’ve never seen utilized in a room before. Super creative. The high reviews and awards are deserved. You can tell that the owners are really passionate about what they do. I had previously done the Black & White Cafe room (also so good!) so I will 100% come back once their third room opens.

This was a fantastic room with a great storyline! We played with 4 of us and got out just in the nick of time! A great combination of tech and old school puzzles that kept you on your toes. Very much recommend!

I have mixed emotions about this room. The set is really good and there were a few really good puzzles. One puzzle, if fact, definitely makes my top 10 puzzles as it was fun, challenging, and I’ve never seen it elsewhere. I felt that the lack of signposting and difficulty of a couple of puzzles in the first couple of spaces and the frustration it created, contrasted with the amazing puzzles and fun in the third and fourth spaces so it left me conflicted on wether to give this a thumbs up or a heart. I did ultimately enjoy the room, but it was a slow, tough start with a fun finish. The staff was great and we will be back when they finish their third room.

This game was fantastically created; but man, it was difficult! Like, seriously really really difficult. There are almost no physical locks so, we felt quite lost on what to work on at different moments. However, once we either figured out the puzzle or had to get a clue on it, then put the pieces together, I liked every puzzle in this room, and as enthusiasts to be seriously challenged by a room is a bit of an oddity, so, I give it props for that. Now, the set, also very well done, this is a big space, and there’s some great set dressing and thematic puzzles that help to elevate this game above others. It wasn’t my absolute favorite game in San Diego, but I can fully understand why it is so many people’s. If you’re looking for a challenge or just looking for a great room, you should definitely go play Moriarty’s Manor

Moriarty’s Manor is an excellent room. Completed the Manor with a team of 4. Very clean and well managed facility. The game is both mechanical and has tech. Beautiful atmosphere with some unique puzzles that I haven’t seen elsewhere.

This room was in my top 5 rooms. We did this room with a team of 4 and got through the room with a few minutes to spare. We needed one hint which mainly confirmed that we were working on the right puzzle. The puzzles were really immersed with the theme of the room and it forces your team to communicate and do things together in order to get to the next step. There are times were we split up to divide and conquer different puzzles, which leads to more clues.. but the room design eventually forces you to come back together in order to get through a big puzzle. The designers did a really good job with the overall flow of the room. I highly recommend this to others!!

Super fun room with an excellent variety of puzzles and wonderful theming. Clever puzzles. Creative mechanics. Teamwork really is key. Linear and engaging from start to finish. Seems like physically it would be tough with fewer than 4 players.

decent sized room, set design was ok. puzzle flow was great and puzzles were really creative. one of the better rooms in San Diego
