AmnesiaQuest Room - Redondo BeachEscape roomIRLThis room was extremely easy. The puzzles only took very simple logic and observation skills. The room was really suspenseful and had creepy props and moments which made it more fun. But it definitely wasn’t a challenge.
Blackbeard's Lost TreasureBack In Time Escape Rooms - East TorranceEscape roomIRLOverall the room was fun. There wasn’t much plot it’s pretty straight forward. There was one part of the room that was super unique and really fun! All and all it was a good experience
Escape The HydeoutMission Escape GamesEscape roomIRLThis room was fun and I really loved the set design but the biggest problem my partner and I faced was trying to find out which clue went with which puzzle we were trying to solve. It was very murky and not intuitive all of the hints we used (I believe we needed 5) were used to figure out where to go next. It was a fun room but a bit of a let down
Gold RushThe Escape GameEscape roomIRLSuch an incredible experience. The entire game was extremely immersive. You’re given 60 mins with unlimited hints. The props were incredible as were the scenes
Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon WandHidden DonkeyEscape roomIRLMy partner and I were recommended this room by another business and it did not disappoint. The use of wands, spells, and potions is such an amazing experience for anyone who is a fan of the wizarding world. One of my favorite parts is when you are struggling or need a hint, it’s provided by one of the characters in the story not the GM. I definitely wouldn’t recommend a group bigger than 3-4. The puzzles don’t have a lot of elements that need to be divided and conquered. Plus it would be a real squeeze in some of the rooms with bigger groups.
Mission's Breakout: The Ultimate Bank HeistMission Escape GamesEscape roomIRLThis room became my favorite room immediately after completing it. My partner and I were in love with the set design and how well the story was integrated into the room. There was a perfect mix of locks and physical puzzles as well as interactive and high tech puzzles. The music was a little daunting which wasn’t helpful but it did add to the pressure of the game. A few of the props were a little worn out but not broken or unusable. I had such an incredible time with this room. We only needed two hints but other than that we’re able to put together which clue went with which puzzle
Special Ops: The Fate Of Agent SmithBack In Time Escape Rooms - East TorranceEscape roomIRLThis was the 6th escape room my girlfriend and I did. Out of the 6 this was out 4th one solo and it was definitely more difficult than the others we faced. We spent the first 10 minutes of the room just trying to figure out where to start. We had to use more hints than we normally needed to. And even when we did get hints you have to pay close attention to how the hints are worded.
The DepthsThe Escape GameEscape roomIRLThis first half of this game is very electronic heavy and the second half is a little more of physical puzzles. Overall I really enjoyed the experience. The storyline was really fun and the experience was really immersive. For anyone who is claustrophobic or nervous when they see the submarine, don’t worry. The rooms are normal size and open with high ceilings. You don’t feel like you’re being squished. I’d recommend 4 people just because there are a few puzzles that need a lot of back and forth. And you can divide and conquer other puzzles
The Game ParlorThe Ultimate Escape Rooms - Long BeachEscape roomIRLThis is probably the most unique location of an escape room I’ve ever done. Doing an escape room in an airstream trailer is just a cool thing to do. The storyline doesn’t really add anything to the room but the props are a lot of fun and really unique
The LaboratoryBrain Games Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis room was the first one my team did at this location and it was fun. The interior design and story aren’t out of this world but the puzzles were fun to solve and satisfying. This room is easy with 2 people. I’d also recommend if for first timers it’s an easy step into escape rooms
