The StorykeeperLocurioEscape roomIRLOverall - a great room I would recommend to anyone! Excellent decor and actors were great. The clue giving was clever. The only thing I didn’t like about the room was that it was mostly linear and there would be some tight spaces if you had more than 4 people. Would recommend if you are in the Seattle area!
The Last SupperQuest TavernEscape roomIRLI just did The Last Supper here at Quest Tavern. I had high hopes - I have heard a lot about this escape room and I was looking forward to it. However, The Last Supper is not an escape room. It’s immersive theater with about 6 puzzles. I could over look the issues I had in this room if it was advertised as an escape room, but what I cannot overlook is that at the end of the “room” there was such a violent part that my friend got hurt and their glasses were damaged. There is a long introduction to the room which the game master says “the actor will not be violent to you, please don’t be violent to us”. However, the actor throws themselves into the door and my friends and I needed at least two people to hold this door shut and my friend ended up getting hurt. It was not just throwing themselves into the door once or twice, it was repeatedly throughout a section. I love escape rooms, I’ve done many, but I cannot endorse an Escape room that you get hurt in and then the staff does minimal to help or attempt to take accountability.
Election DayAppleseed AvenueEscape roomOther Honestly, a great room. However, 80 dollars a person? Thats what’s stopping me from fully loving the room.
Game NightCU Adventures in Time and SpaceEscape roomIRLThis is one of my favorite rooms - of all time. I don’t think I’ll ever forget it. An embodiment of a D&D. Some super cool high tech puzzles, surprises, and I had a fantastic time with my friends. Please do this room
Stash HouseStash HouseEscape roomIRLI’ve done well over 100 escape rooms - this is easily in my top 10 escape rooms. The GM was very kind and willing to talk to us after! Really down to earth person. Fantastic set, there were things hidden so well in it, plus a lot of amazing surprises. Puzzles were fantastic and all on theme. Puzzles were also very unique - I haven’t done puzzles like that before. The way you received clues is unique and I loved it. Very non linear, I could do the room again and solve a whole new set of puzzles. If you like the 90s there are cute Easter eggs for you as well. Perfect amount of seriousness and silliness while still playing on the theme. Would highly recommend doing Stash House if you only had time for one escape room in LA.
Lab RatHatch EscapesEscape roomIRLOverall, Lap Rat is a decent escape room. It is a very linear room, which is not my favorite. Our GM for our team did a so-so job. However, the set was very adorable, the story was fun, and most of the puzzles were on theme. I wish I could say I loved this room (I had heard so much about it being amazing!) - but it was simply an average experience. All of the reviews of this room rave about it, which makes me feel like I am missing something that everyone else had, but how could I? The room was too linear for me to have had done different puzzles.
The Hex RoomCross Roads Escape GamesEscape roomIRLAn escape room with a fun twist. I enjoyed getting into the roles. I don’t feel like the puzzles were particularly hard/none of them stood out but the environment was very cool. Having the right team balance is super important in this room. Think carefully about who you bring
HeadcaseBreaking Point Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLA really solid room, overall a good experience. Had some minor problems with a broken puzzle that took away immersion but if you’re in the area it’s a good room to do!
The Vanishing ActLocurioEscape roomIRLOverall, a solid escape room. I prefer their other room over this one, but if you’re looking for an escape room I wouldn’t skip over this one! The story was a little under developed. Lots of puzzles to work on, so if you have a bigger team that will help. Mostly non-linear. Some puzzles did not fit completely in the theme but nothing felt so far off that I was taken out of the immersion. Game master was great! Set was good, but nothing mind blowing. Don’t regret going, had a great time!
Revenge Of The CabinCU Adventures in Time and SpaceEscape roomIRLI was a little nervous heading into this room because I am a bit of a scaredy cat - but I am SO SO GLAD I did it. This was a fantastic room, puzzles ranged from easy to us needing to put our three heads together to figure it out. Take a group of your friends - you’ll have a great time.
