Servants of SleightThe Exit Games FLEscape roomIRLAmazing room! Just when we thought we were done, there was even more. Great theming, storytelling. Fun puzzles. Tbh the playlist in the background was also great haha.
Pins & Needles Tattoo ParlorThe Exit Games FLEscape roomIRLHad a lot of fun in this super cool and immersive room. There was so much to do in the 90 minutes we had. Be warned the room does get pretty intense thematically, which might make some more skittish people uncomfortable.
Ghost PatrolTrivium GamesEscape roomIRLVery fun game with good set design, good flow, and it's family friendly. Just an overall enjoyable time with no complaints.
The StorykeeperLocurioEscape roomIRLA fun experience with great storytelling and immersion, with really fun and interactive puzzles. Implementing the solutions to puzzles was just as fun as figuring them out. We had a great time talking with our GM about some of the puzzles afterwards.
Chapter 1: Occam's ApartmentOff The Couch GamesEscape roomIRLExcellent story, excellent set (especially the lighting!), nice flow of unique puzzles and an overall immersive experience from the moment we walked into the apartment, even the hint giver is plot relevant. Because we booked chapters 1 and 2 back-to-back, a live actor seamlessly hurried us from the apartment to the art gallery to continue our investigation.
UndercookedOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLSo good! Non-linear room where you find and solve as many puzzles as you can within the time limit. Benefits from divide and conquer mentality.
Chapter 3: The MorgueOff The Couch GamesEscape roomIRLAn amazing overarching game mechanic that makes you want to solve puzzles quickly, or else. As an experience, it was a bit overstimulating at times which detracted from my experience.
Lab RatHatch EscapesEscape roomIRLGood, immersive room with unique puzzles and an interesting story. Note that even though it's a 60 minute game, the timer pauses when the plot-related videos play, to encourage you to watch them. Expect to be there for longer than 60 minutes.
RockstarCityscape GamesEscape roomIRLGreat game, and our GM/owner was super nice. Fun theme and backstory, and the puzzles fit nicely with that. The main difficulty of the game was staying organized and understanding which puzzles or locks didn't need to be solved yet. Less experienced players or smaller groups might lose focus, but the GM is happy to keep you out of following dead ends (unless you ask him to hold off on hints)
Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon WandHidden DonkeyEscape roomIRLGreat immersion, atmosphere, and interactivity. Not the hardest puzzling and can feel quite linear at parts, but the immersion is what carries the experience here
