Help the government explore the retro-futuristic world of Robotopia. Dr. Sarah Cube, the creator of the first sentient AI, has kept it hidden from the public for several decades. Can your investigation unit uncover the secrets of Robotopia and discover advanced AI technology that would greatly benefit mankind?

I’ve done about 90 rooms at this point and this was by far my favorite. Every puzzle made sense some easy some hard. Even the hint we had to ask for once we figured it out it made complete sense. The flow was epic and the staff game masters were great. Nothing worse than a bad game master completely ruined the experience. If you come across the game master named “truth” he’s a legend and made the room that much better.

Chef Ramses II is in a bit of a pickle. A well-known food critic is about to visit one of his under-managed restaurants. Can you manage his chaotic kitchen and help him in completing orders before he gets bombarded with bad reviews?

Absolute chaos in the best way possible! If you love puzzles, this is the room for you. The frenzy of recipes presented to you makes for a fast-paced experience. My group of 3 went in knowing there would be a lot to do, so we hit the ground running and it was genuinely exhilarating trying to bounce around to different puzzles without pausing for transitions or story beats. It honestly felt like we were chefs working in a kitchen slammed for the dinner rush, cooking in parallel but calling out for each other when we needed info or a second pair of eyes. The sheer volume of puzzles already had me sold, but the variety and mechanics of the room were outright impressive.

Can your team rise to the occasion and escape with the diamond or will you be caught and tried as accomplices in what would be the greatest diamond heist in history?

Really fun room with a lot to do for a larger group. Some puzzle sets were easier than others, and some were pretty challenging, but great use of tech and excellent set design. Multiple puzzles that can be solved simultaneously make it great with more players.

Finalist (2024)

A dark curse surrounds Haruka High School after the mysterious death of one of its beloved students. As you search for answers, you realize there is something more sinister lurking behind this tragedy. Can you uncover the truth and break the curse before your time runs out?

This room ended up being a pleasant surprise! Not always a huge fan of horror since it runs the risk of sidelining puzzles, but this room is still authentically an escape room. The gameplay complements the narrative wonderfully, and I was satisfied as a puzzle enthusiast. The real strengths of the room lie in the set design and theatrics though, and they culminated in a truly memorable experience. I found myself admiring each room I went through. The story was refreshingly more engaging than typical escape rooms, and my group ended up being invested in the details for the fun of it. Easily one of my favorite Omescape rooms!

Haunting at Haruka High

 Step into the Spellbinding World of "Witchly Ever After!"

A magical fairy tale with a very pretty decorated set and great themed puzzles and a stellar finale! It’s very fun! There’s a pointless split that I wasn’t a fan of, but otherwise the room flows well in a mostly linear fashion as you find the fractured fairy tales. It’s a great room for children too to experience their escape ever afters!

Witchly Ever After

Fear has no mercy!

Witness this menacing event with an Omen so sinister, it will challenge your perception of reality, make you shriek and listen for the ear piercing blades of the "Soul Shredder".

The man you been hunting continues to evade you and this time he sends you to the Morgue where he wants to play a little game.  Will you be able to come out alive or join the rest of the bodies at this abandoned Morgue?

The first three chapters have set the bar for what all escape rooms should be. The staff is exceptionally friendly, and one of the best parts is getting to debrief with them afterwards about the puzzles and the storyline. They love what they do and it shows. We can’t wait for the next chapter to arrive.

Chapter 3: The Morgue

Once a beacon for weary travelers, Motel Molly promised rest beneath its glowing neon sign. But those days are gone. The rooms sit abandoned, and whatever lingers inside is far from welcoming. It was here that Olivia disappeared without a trace. Her husband, Noah, followed, certain the motel held the answers—only to vanish himself.

Now, Noah’s desperate call has reached you, his closest friends. To uncover the truth, you must retrace his steps and face whatever secrets hide within these walls… before they close in around you.

Although the rooms are overall better in the Sunnyvale location for Omescape, Motel Molly is definitely in the company’s top tier of games! It is a terrific and terrifying experience. After braving the mild spicy version of Haunting at Haruka High, we decided to play the default scary version of this game. While there were indeed scary moments, darkness, loud sounds, and a live actor, it wasn’t as scary as Haruka High. Which is good for us since we’re scaredy cats! The story, flow, set, and cinematic moments are all well done! The lore is interesting and I wish it was clearer without having to read things so I could better appreciate the finale. Book your stay at Motel Molly, if you dare!

Motel Molly

You and your friends are vacationing at Camp Lokankee in the summer of 1989. Just as you’re on your evening walk in the forest, you hear that a notorious serial killer known as The Huntsman has escaped the local prison. As you hear footsteps approaching from the woods, you run into the nearest open cabin you can find, lock the doors, and brace yourself. Trapped in the cabin with a killer outside, your last hope is to explore the cabin for resources, patch yourselves into the cabin phone network, and call for help from the camp security.

Molly grew up in the Nursery.  As a child she loved to play with her friends Mr. Bob, and Awdree.  Her family tried to give her a normal life, but Molly was always ill, and spent much of her time with her imaginary friends.  She didn't care much for the daylight, and spent countless nights finding places to hide and host tea parties.  As the days went by, her family grew worried. Hoping that they could give their daughter some real friends, they tried to introduce her to Cindy & Annie. Those girls would make fun of Molly for her imaginary friends. Mr. Bob didn't like that..

Marketing Team event to showcase new mechanics of V.2. They have changed some puzzles since the beta version. My team loved the room and were warned ahead of time that this is an EXPERIENCE escape room with live actors. 
The staff and I have done work this past summer and it holds a special spot in my book for including (myself) to their story. ♥️♥️

The Nursery v.2

You're a disgruntled adult who is frustrated by the level of stress in your life. You have bills piling up, a thankless job, and endless responsibilities in your home life. You go to bed one night, wishing for the freedom and innocence of being a child again. Little did you know your dream would come true!

Okok I’m a HUGE sucker for “childhood” themed rooms so I might be biased here. I loved the whimsy, I liked playing around with all the toys finding delightful hidden things. Puzzles were really solid and it was perfect for two people! 

Probably my favorite room at this location.

Clockwise Escape Room

Back to Childhood

Nominee (2023)

As a special ops agent, covert investigations across the globe are nothing out of the ordinary. But your routine search of a spice market leads to an unexpected discovery…Now you’re left to combat an international crisis that threatens the state of the world as we know it. You’ll need to harness all your tactical skills and training if you’re ever going to put a stop to this global catastrophe. Through all the twists and turns you have to ask yourself…how deep does the conspiracy go?

Tier: A (see bio)

It’s insane how a game of this caliber can be reproduced across the entire country. Definitely the best game I have played from a major chain (note: I have not played any other games from The Escape Game yet). A great immersive storytelling game with solid puzzles, a great atmosphere change, and enough plot to make you feel like the main characters in your own espionage film. (This also would work well as an introduction to escape rooms though it would definitely be a harder beginner game.)

We’re desperately seeking outside help from you smart humans to restore the peace and unity to the kingdom. Whose side will you be on?

Medieval cat room, what’s not to love meow? We actually did this 90 minute room as the 5th in a row of Omescape’s super long games. And although we were tired, we still had a great time because of the fun cat puns, silly humor, and purrfect combo of a cat castle. Some puzzles did feel unintuitive or made no sense, but maybe we were just tired. Room still made me smile! It’s a ridiculous novel premise that just works and it’s easy to love! I only wish we got to see more kittehs! MEOW!
