Chapter 1: Occam's ApartmentOff The Couch GamesEscape roomIRLThat set is amazing. There's a really unique puzzle in there that blew my mind. I screamed from how much fun I was having. Let's just say I'd live there.
The SacrificeMission Escape George StEscape roomIRLIt’s a big room, very nice set, fun atmosphere, but some of the tech was broken when my group and I went. Two puzzles in particular didn’t work for us and the staff tried to gaslight us about them when they were very clearly non-functional. Despite that, I still had fun in the room. My group had a lot of gripes about the broken tech because this was the second time something broke for us at Mission. Hopefully they’re fixed for future players because the Sacrifice’s set is very well done and it’s a fun enough room that I’d recommend for those that can handle a light horror experience.
The AttractionPalace GamesEscape roomIRLWhat a fantastic room! Difficult to do with the minimum, I expect, unless you're all experts. I went with the maximum amount of people because we were not all experts or enthusiasts. Attraction is undoubtedly one of my top five (as of 2024) rooms I've ever done. The set is amazing, the immersion is on a whole other scale from what I've ever experienced, and the puzzles are so fun! They make sense and they flow very well. Everyone gets to participate so even if you have the maximum amount of players, no one is doing absolutely nothing. So much love and care (and money) have been poured into this and I can say without a doubt that it's really paid off. Play this room if you get the chance!
Back to ChildhoodClockwise Escape Room - PleasantonEscape roomIRLA very nostalgic room! The set and the puzzles were charming. My friend and I had a blast doing this!
Ex LibrisNext Level EscapeEscape roomIRLI love this room!!! First of all, I am a book nerd so to see all these different books being referenced in the room was amazing! The puzzles themselves made sense and were very much on theme. It’s not like this room’s puzzles does anything particularly different, but the way they are presented and done is so charming, I can’t help but just rave about it. I love the narration as well. I was so happy when I finished. I just love everything about this room; the set, theme, the puzzles, everything! Definitely one of my top rooms I’ve played!
Three KingdomsClockwise Escape Room - PleasantonEscape roomIRLIt's an incredibly fun and cute room! Absolutely doable with 2 people, despite the 3 being the minimum.
Mystical ManorOscar’s PlaygroundEscape roomIRLPlayed this with 2 people, which is the perfect amount for this room. It was great fun for introducing newbies to escape rooms. GM was very kind and attentive even though there was an arcade sharing the walls and children were running around everywhere outside.
The Black QueenAdventure Rooms - Melbourne (Little Collins St)Escape roomIRLI played with just me and my partner and we had a great time! Well, I had a great time because he saw a puzzle and just went WELP, WE'RE NEVER GETTING OUT but I did it! The staff was also very nice to us, but when we went, there was construction happening around the place so the location was difficult to find.
CannibalEscape ThisEscape roomIRLThis is definitely a spoopy room, not sure why the tag here on Morty says it’s not scary. If you’re easily frightened, like me, bring some brave friends to do this room!
The GiftRed Door Escape Room - San MateoEscape roomIRLMy group and I didn’t make it out, partly due to the fact we had a faulty reset that prevented us from moving forward. We didn’t get the minutes back for it and trying to flag down a GM was so difficult; it certainly felt like no one was paying attention to our game and when someone finally addressed our problem with the reset, it really took me out of the immersion. However, I will say the room flows well, the set is nice, and the puzzles range from simple to boss level puzzles.
