Watch your head and your step as you navigate underground booby-trapped caves searching for the lost treasure of the infamous pirate, Captain William Leg. In 1855, Captain Leg (nicknamed One-Leg Willy after a losing battle with Piranhas) and his crew, MoonaLisa Mermaid and Cigar Sam, sailed a small ship loaded with treasure chests up the San Diego River and disappeared into a large cavern. A few hours later, an earthquake collapsed the entrance trapping the ship. The caverns and Willy’s treasure remained lost until 1953 when a group of SDSU geologists studying earthquake faults discovered a cave system stretching for miles deep underground and culminating in a subterranean lake. They dubbed the caves “Nightwalker Caverns” after learning the caves were used by bootleggers during Prohibition in the 1920s. Newspaper headlines chronicled cave explorers’ encounters with poisonous serpents, tunnel cave-ins, strange electro-magnetic phenomena, and hairy human-like cave dwellers--but no treasure. In fact, the treasure remained just another legend until March 21, 1955, when newspaper banners proclaimed that Chester Klinker, a local developer, had found One-Leg Willy’s treasure map while building an office building. The next day, another earthquake occurred, and Klinker was among several people reported missing. Locals claimed that Klinker built a secret entrance to the underground caverns in the office building basement so he could look for the treasure. Your group has made it as far as the basement door without getting caught by building security. You’ll have just 90 minutes to find One-Leg Willy’s map and search the basement for a hidden entrance to the caverns. Don’t lose yourself or your friends while immersed in this totally goony parody on pirate adventure movies. The treasure has already been lost, found, and lost again. Will you and your group find One-Leg Willy’s lost treasure?

Not really an escape room. Some of the best decor but was more of an enter-active childrens museum. Fun family entertainment day with a chaperone included. There was no puzzles really

Gameplay

Definitely a good escape room for first timers not challenging at all great for very young kids

There are some really cool parts of this experience, it’s immersive and you feel like you’re inside an adventure. I just wish I had seen Goonies, the puzzles probably would have made more sense. I didn’t enjoy it as much as the people I was with who had seen the movie.

Fun times! We needed a lot of help. Especially great for fans of a similarly named film.

Unique room with cool physical components! Probably would have been fun to watch the movie before! I really liked that there were a lot of rooms that you go between. Not the biggest fan of game masters being in the room. I prefer when they are tied in to the story somehow. You’ll find puzzles out of order so be cautious spending too much time on a particular puzzle. You may not need it yet. Oh and the walls are super thin so you can hear other people which takes you out of the game a bit.

Set up differently than other. Fun things to do within the room. Some that are physical. The more in your group the better. Only downside there will be a game master in the room with you as you will need a few clues.
