Election DayAppleseed AvenueEscape roomOther Appleseed Avenue Escape Room absolutely blew us away! The game design and storytelling are out of this world, it’s truly one of a kind! The way the character operates in particular felt so refreshing and different from the usual escape room format, making it stand out in the best possible way. The room is incredibly immersive, smartly designed with well-crafted props and high production value that pull you straight into the story. Not surprising, since this gem was created by the founder of Evil Genius and Matt - the brilliant mind behind Arcane Escape Room—talk about a dream team! We’ve played around 35 escape rooms, and this one easily ranks as our #1 favorite. Even though it’s a bit of a drive from Los Angeles, it’s absolutely worth every mile. And the best part? They’re opening a new room next year—we seriously can’t wait to come back!
Wrongfully ConvictedThe Escape RevolutionEscape roomIRLThe prison break theme had a lot of potential, and the set design was decent enough to get us into character. Unfortunately, the experience was interrupted (a lot) by a very over-eager game master who kept chiming in with clues — unprompted. It’s one thing to offer help when asked, but it’s another to have a voice from above constantly guiding your every move. It really took away the challenge and immersion. The puzzles themselves were just okay — nothing particularly memorable or innovative. Given the high price, I expected more in terms of quality and autonomy. If you’re planning to try this room, I’d recommend asking the game master not to give any clues unless requested. Or better yet… maybe choose a different room altogether.
