InksidiousEscape Room 66 - Los AngelesEscape roomIRLWalking into the lobby felt like entering a different world. The gamemaster, Tuesday, was friendly and welcoming. From the beginning it was clear that she wanted us to enjoy the experience. The story is creepy and the design of everything aids the darkly humorous feeling of the what’s going on. Clues, when asked for, were gentle nudges, allowing us to solve puzzles but not get stuck going down dead ends. This is a mechanical room, but the way the everything was presented made it feel magical. Like being a kid at Disneyland for the first time. Note that if combination locks aren’t your thing and you only enjoy high tech rooms, you might be quickly frustrated. There are no light sensor/magnet triggered/animatronics/tech based flash here. Just good storytelling, great design, and clever puzzles. Easily one of my favorites ever.
