Ghost Patrol
Trivium Games
Escape room
IRL
One of the best escape rooms i’ve ever done and my favorite in all of the Bay Area, and yes, that includes Palace Games. The immersion in this game is so good. Everything is custom made from the puzzles and decor to the special prop you are given, that is the source of so many interesting and unique puzzles. The puzzles are actually quite challenging. The custom soundtrack is sooo good. If you are coming to SF, make this your #1 priority!
Operation Arctic Storm: The Final Meltdown
The Escape Ventures - Orlando
Escape room
IRL
One of the coolest games in Orlando! Perhaps the most physical game I’ve played in the US. The puzzles are fantastic and fit the polar station theme well. The props and sets along with some acting from the GM make this room feel extremely immersive. Has every effect you would expect with a snow themed room. This is a 90 minute room and that duration is definitely deserved. Enthusiasts keep groups small…three is a perfect number. We felt we were tripping onto of each other in certain parts with four. A must book if you are coming out to Orlando!

Omescape - Sunnyvale
Escape room

I would award this game three Michelin stars if I could! Super unique and fantastic game inspired by a similarly named video game. Doesn’t work exactly like the game, but rather adapted for the escape room format with an extremely open puzzle flow with the goal of earning money by completing puzzles to unlock recipes. There is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning, but easy to understand once we got started. It gets hectic running around the beautifully designed kitchen set looking for ingredients to complete you recipe. 3-4 enthusiasts would be the sweet spot. Our duo completed 19 of the 26 available puzzles!
The Storykeeper
Locurio
Escape room
IRL
This escape room (and Locurio for that matter) makes Seattle a must visit for any enthusiast. The immersion is cranked up to an 11, from the actor, the detailed sets and unique hint system. You really do feel like you’ve been transported into the pages of a book!

MindTrap Escape Room - Temecula

There are no words! Just brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before. Thank you for making this brilliant game! 😍
Mogollon Monster: Scouting for Arizona's Bigfoot
The Nemesis Club
Escape room
IRL
OMG! I played this back in September 2021, and I still think about it to this day. This has to be my favorite escape room of all time. I don’t want to spoil anything, so just book it right now. The tech is insane, the theming is Disneyland/Universal quality, the puzzles are fun and make sense with the story. Enthusiasts make a trip to Phoenix just for The Nemesis Club.
Heresy: 1897 [Immersive Theatre]
Doors Of Divergence
Escape room

A fantastic blend of immersive theater, choose your own adventure and escape room. Probably one of the most ambitious companies I have ever had the pleasure of visiting and I am sad I might not have the chance to visit the Paradox Bar again in the future. This company has really thought of everything. The way that the standard escape room rules are delivered is so clever, I didn’t even realize that was happening until about halfway through the process, and it left me with such a grin. A must play in the New York City market!
Treasure Island
Brain Games Escape Room
Escape room
IRL
Overall, just fantastic in every category from the theme to the puzzles to the decor. Puzzle lovers rejoice because this one is full of them. There are some remnants and puzzles from the predecessor Tiki Time at 60Out, but make no mistake, there is plenty of brand new content here to enjoy. As a bonus, there are so many references to nautical pop culture to appreciate around the room. This is a must play in the LA market along with the other rooms at Brain Games!
Madness: 1917
Doors Of Divergence
Escape room
IRL
Just as incredible as the first chapter! The spookiness is raised up a little in this one but it’s still not too bad if you’re worried like I was. It was awesome to see how our actions in Heresy played out in this game. It’s a split game, but a first for me in that we were split for the entire game, although could still hear and talk to each other. Like the first game, the basic escape room rules are delivered in a way that I’ve never seen done before that fits perfectly with the story. There are opportunities for one on one moments with the actors and I will surely not forget mine any time soon!
Sal's Cybernetics
The Immersive Machine
Escape room
IRL
So much fun!!! I loved the Cyberpunk 2077/sci-fi inspirations. The puzzles are interesting and clever, all with a unique hint system. Great owners/GMs that care about giving players a total immersive experience, staying true to the company’s name. One of the must-do’s in the Phoenix area!
