The Edison Escape RoomPalace GamesEscape roomIRLThe BEST escape room I’ve ever done and our group agreed. The puzzles, the rooms, the story, everything about it was awesome. I can’t wait to go back and do more at Palace Games.
Jumanji: Welcome To The Jungle60Out MelroseEscape roomIRLJumanji was easily the best escape room I’ve ever done. The rooms felt like a movie set and were so well decorated. The puzzles were exquisite and some I had never seen before. I wish I could play this for the first time again. Highly recommend!
Houdini60Out Silver LakeEscape roomIRLHoudini was an absolute blast! We had a team of 5 and escaped in 26 minutes! We were told by our awesome host that we easily got top 5 in this room. The puzzles were fantastic, I just wish it was a little longer!
Da Vinci's Secret60Out HollywoodEscape roomIRLDa Vinci’s Secret is great and a pretty challenging room. Lots of puzzles and lots of brain power. Team work makes the dream work and luckily, I had the right team and we escaped successfully. I’ve played a couple Da Vinci themed rooms and this one is definitely my favorite. Highly recommend!
The Other SideFox in a Box Los AngelesEscape roomIRLI absolutely LOVED this room! Most of the rooms at Fox in a Box were great (so sad they’re closed now) but The Other Side was brilliant! I had never played a room like this, I got a major Stranger Things vibes from it. At one point you have to work with your team in a completely separate room and you can’t even hear them through the walls. It was fascinating, I wish I could play again.
The Ghost Of MentryvilleArcane Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLI didn’t love this room. At the time of playing this, there was an actor in the room with you (which was tiny to begin with) and it made things kind of awkward. I get why it was necessary to be in there as he was part of the story, the room was just so small and the puzzles were pretty cheap. We escaped and we had a good time don’t get me wrong, but since there are so many other escape rooms, I wouldn’t recommend this one (unless you’re stuck in the Santa Clarita area).
Orient ExpressArchitect Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLOrient Express at Architect had great puzzles and an intriguing storyline. It was only me and one other person but we escaped. No technical difficulties and our game master was 10/10, very fun. However, walls in this place are STUPID thin. I mean, to the point where there shouldn’t even be a wall at all. We could clearly hear the conversations that were being had in the room next door and could hear the game master giving hints on the walkie. It was extremely distracting and hard to communicate with my teammate. I don’t want to not recommend this room because of that, just be warned you might be distracted or even hear spoilers for the other rooms.
South Park: Cartman's Escape RoomEscape the Room Los AngelesEscape roomIRLMe and my friends got top 3 in this room! Funny enough, unlike my friends I haven’t watched much South Park so I didn’t know if I’d like this room. I was wrong, this was one of the more fun rooms I’ve ever done. Lots of laughs along the way and some pretty creative puzzles. Especially if you’re a South Park fan, I highly recommend this one!
Zodiac Serial KillerFox in a Box Los AngelesEscape roomIRLThis was one of my first escape rooms ever and was actually what got me hooked. Zodiac Serial Killer was one of the craziest rooms I’ve played. I won’t go into detail (even though the room is closed now) but starting off chained in a dark room and not being able to move was absolutely terrifying and SO much fun! With 4 people, we managed to get out of our chains, solve the room’s puzzles, and get out in time. Sadly there was one technical difficulty which forced us to get out of the room and then go back in, but it didn’t take away from the fact that this room was spectacular. I wish I could play it for the first time again. We miss you Fox in a Box!
Amityville60Out Silver LakeEscape roomIRLAmityville was a decent room for the ‘horror’ enthusiast. The room is very dark and kind of spooky, which carried through the whole experience. There was one technical difficulty which we were stumped on for a while. Our game master didn’t say anything so we figured we did something wrong. When we asked for a hit, our game master asked us questions about the room as if he wasn’t following along with our journey at all. Not a great feeling. We did end up escaping with a couple jump scares. I think if you get the right game master, this room would be great especially around Halloween.
