Intrepid reader. Should you embark upon this journey, be forewarned: you must be here! This is the most immersive escape room you will ever find, but to get the fully rich experience, come ready to be present and have fun! The story starts at an… unexpected place. My team and I were instantly immersed in the world and treated like royalty, and it was the most fun interaction I’ve had. Gameplay was difficult, but not impossible; in fact, for my team’s level of experience, it was just right. I cannot recommend this escape room enough, but remember: be present and be ready to have fun!

Gameplay begins at an unexpected stage, so come PREPARED

Treated like royalty! Especially for my role in the game. So honored.

Particularly interesting or different

This had an element I did NOT see coming. I can’t say more without spoiling it, but it definitely became my favorite escape room because of this.

Story

Clever, well integrated, and though you had to pay attention, made great sense.

This was our favorite escape room ever!!! The entire experience was amazing. They really never broke character and really made the whole experience that much better. We didn’t want it to end.. it was a great time! I’m glad i saved this room to do on my birthday!

Gameplay

An entire experience from walking through the doors of the building to the end!

Very engaging game. The storyline was very concrete and easy to follow. The set was very immersive and it wasn’t as scary as I thought it would be. Live actor interaction was fun as well.

Wow! I’ve visited over 50 escape room companies, and no other company does immersion BEFORE the game starts. When you enter the lobby, you’re entering a new world. All the acting is top-notch, though the voice acting doesn’t hold a candle to the host and cast. The combination of tech, clever physical puzzles, actor interactions, and teamwork makes for a dynamic, immersive, and exciting experience. It’s easy to get lost in the story when every piece of the game serves it so well. All the puzzles make sense in-world and don’t require insane logical leaps. It’s simultaneously funny, eerie, ambitious, and down-to-earth. What a fantastic experience!

The actors were amazing. Really sold the whole experience. This was my first room with live actors so it’s very special to me. They help set the standard. The room was very well done and makes for a difficult escape. Bring experiences players

Probably the best escape room experience I've ever been to. If you live/visit SoCal , this is a must-try escape room.

Definitely one of the better rooms we’ve done. It is more than a room, it is an experience that you must do. The actors/GM’s are awesome, the rooms are incredibly detailed, the story is great, the puzzles are fun, I can’t say enough great things about this room, just do it. We played with our family, 2 of them avoid scary rooms and were hesitant based on the theme… it was spooky initially but never scary. They absolutely loved it and were so happy they went. Everyone must do this room.

Gameplay

We loved every bit of this experience. The story, the puzzles, the actors the set design. This is a must do room add it to your list.

Atmosphere

Outstanding! I can’t speak highly enough about the set design, from the second you walk in the front door you are immersed into a new experience with incredible ambiance - the furniture, the props, everything.

Customer service

Everyone was incredible, both as FM’s and as actors.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Be prepared to be transported to a mansion down to every last detail… which makes the gameplay ever better than you will expect.

Story

Great story.

Difficulty

Medium

I almost marked this room as easy, but we’ve done a lot of rooms. For someone newer, you may find it a bit more difficult but they have great interactive ways to guide you thru everything.

Game tech

High tech

This is a mix of high tech and mechanical… you will be impressed.

Ideal number of players

4

We played with 4 but you could easily play with more (or less if you are experienced).

Scary

Spooky

Let me be clear, this is NOT a scary room. If you avoid scary rooms, this one is safe to do! The storyline is about a family that died in a house, so that may be creepy to some, but if you skip this room because you’re nervous, you will miss one of the better rooms you could do. Be brave and do it!

It sits in a strip mall in an unmarked corner, but they send direction with photos that made it easy to find.

My favorite escape experience so far. Detailed and immersive with puzzles that are fun and not too challenging. The gentleman that greeted us in the lobby was funny and the room actress was great too! The Ministry of Peculiarities: Hope End is an absolute must.
