The 18 best escape rooms in Hollywood

“This was an amazing escape room. There were unique and challenging puzzles, the set was fantastic, and there were opportunities to split up our team and to work together!! The flow was amazing. The game recommends 4-6 players, and we did it with 3 experienced players and escaped just in time. I definitely wouldn’t want a massive group, but the ability to split up and work in separate puzzles makes having more people helpful. I definitely wouldn’t recommend having fewer than 4. This game is challenging and would not be great for beginners. Overall, this is one of my favorite escape rooms that my group has ever done. I would definitely check it out.”

“Great room, lots of fun to play. Not too complicated with fun interactive puzzles. A light and joyful kind of room. Didn’t care for the creepy rat guy but that was just story that got a little unnecessarily uncomfortable for me, but the room was solid.”

“WOW. What a moving experience. As an escape room enthusiast it was incredible learning how to just move with the flow of the story and not think so hard about puzzles, not everything needs to be analyzed under a microscope. They let you take your time, and if the GM is calling to nudge you forward, they do it completely in character and you don’t realize what they’re even doing when they call. They’re more of a companion than someone running the room. The point here is to listen to Josie’s journey and essentially wander through her memories under the guise of a storage unit. Doing this in a group of 2 as the only people in the building late at night other than our GM was part of the experience, it allowed us to take our time and let go, let the boxes and tapes guide our way. The very last room is overwhelming, depending on the mood you are in after the main room itself, this last one can be beautiful or heartbreaking. I could have spent an hour in that room alone. There is some sensitive subject matter that is warned about ahead of time and puts a very true depth into this story that may or may not be real. It takes up space in my mind and heart and I don’t really care if it’s real or fake because I felt every second of it, Hatch did an amazing job at this that I’ve not seen anywhere else ever. Highly recommended for small groups with open hearts.”

“I can understand how people see this as Revolution’s best room. It’s got it all: 2 floors, a ton of puzzles, jumpsuits, a [cool way of getting from one floor to the other that I won’t spoil]. Your group starts separate like any classic prison break room and from the very start you have break things to get out. THIS really felt like escaping. On the side of their building it says “It’s Not a Game” and I felt that in this one. Wrongfully Convicted was deeply immersive and had us doubling back to solve puzzles, with one of the best/hardest final puzzles I’ve ever been tasked of solving in a room.”

“Incredible room. I highly recommend for anyone, but an especially good room for people who may be intimidated to try an escape room. It's a lot of fun, and the design was top notch. Gamemaster Grant is the GOAT. 🐐 It's not very traditional, so if you have a ton of escape room experience try to go in with an open mind and just enjoy your time.”

“This was such a cool experience. My group of 2 did both this and wrongfully convicted back to back. Both were so immersive and had maybe the best/most realistic sets I’ve seen in an escape room. There were also some really cool aspects I haven’t seen in other rooms. I definitely would recommend going with a larger group for both rooms. We thought that the puzzles could’ve flowed better and used more direction. For both wrongfully convicted and Escobar, the puzzles were very difference from a typical escape room and very much geared to keeping the experience as immersive as possible. I just think that the puzzles could be better and more intuitive overall. I enjoyed Escobar slightly more than Wrongfully but both were fantastic experiences and I recommend doing both if you’re in LA. Also, Carmen was such an awesome game master. She was so attentive and helpful throughout the entire experience!”

“Met Rachel when we did Brain Labs yesterday. She was super nice and approachable. The game was so interactive and you won't feel pressured. Then we came back today and met Grant (with rachel) to do Wizards Treasure which is equally as fun and interactive as Big Brain Labs. Definitely gonna keep coming back every time I visit LA!”

“This room was great. Multi-layered puzzles, lots of thinking outside the box, and fun surprises along the way. It was scarier than anticipated, but I felt like that added to my enjoyment. Knowing The Matrix movies certainly adds to the room, but it felt like a good balance of a world existing inside of that concept.”

“Jumanji was our first 60out escape room and it was great! We ended up finishing all the rooms at the Melrose location, and Jumanji was definitely the highlight there. It's really on theme, and knowing the general idea of the movie definitely makes it more enjoyable. Puzzles were fun and different.”

“REALLY FUN but also really hard. We could barely even reach the final room, and at some points we got stuck. We were a team of 3. However, gameplay, immersion and props were so much fun!!!! Would still highly recommend and would love to play again someday!”

“The Ladder is more of an experience than an escape room, where each room is a 15-minute container and you are moving through each decade with your chosen character. It’s the best of both worlds in my opinion with the “choose your own adventure” and escape room/arcade game feel. There are multiple pathways to win so you never really lose and you’re doing something the entire time either to get more story or more money. Do it for the plot takes on a different meaning here. When we played the experience, the technical pieces ran smoothly and we came in with the expectation that this was a linear immersive video game. Our game master, Chelsea, is probably the most amazing human ever so that definitely made our HR onboarding a seamless one. We also came on a Wednesday, which significantly reduced the price point for our group. I see the vision of how this is meant to be played more than once and now I want to back to see what other lives I may have lived! I always have completions tendencies so I know there is always going to be that part of me that’s hesitant to shift to a new focus or let a task go. One feedback I would have is to have a much more obvious signal if the games and puzzles were solved. Sometimes, we were not sure if it has already been solved or we messed up along the way. The point is to have fun and we did have a lot of fun. Thank you so much Chelsea and Hatch for a great 50 years 😭”

“We loved this game. Great puzzles, great flow, and even the mechanics/ mechanisms were pretty flawless. I love when sound effects tell you when you’re doing something right or wrong so you know if you keep going. And when you do get something right it triggers. Honestly we came for a different game, but wanted to do another one…. But we had reservations for an escape room 45 minutes away in 2 hours (it was a 75 minute game) & we asked our game master to keep us on track & Rachel couldn’t have nailed it harder. She nudged us if we were hitting the wrong puzzle for too long. She also didn’t just give us answers if we asked for a nudge, so she wouldn’t just like solve the puzzle, she’d direct the logic to get us to the next puzzle. Honestly, I couldn’t have pictured it any more perfect. Rachel was the perfect amount of Helpful … not to mention super courteous & hospitable. My husband rates this as one of his top 5 favorite puzzles & we’ve done over 100. I wish we didn’t live out of town so we could do all games at all the locations”
