Hope EndThe Ministry Of PeculiaritiesEscape roomIRLGreat acting from the staff! As soon as you walk in, you are immersed into another world. The lobby has fun trinkets to play around with as you wait. Puzzles are unique (no number locks at all!!!) and hints are provided in a unique way. The only con is some of the props broke easily but the game master was quick in providing alternatives.
The Last SupperQuest TavernEscape roomIRLThe acting and interaction with the live actors did it for me! I was snervous the entire time and loved the thrill behind the storyline plot. Puzzles were basic but the acting made the experience fun for everyone. 🔑 A tip is to come ready to have fun and potentially improv...where are my theatre nerds at! I would definitely visit again to try the other puzzles.
The Weeping WitchCross Roads Escape GamesEscape roomIRLI was terrified to do this room because of the horror factor but ended up loving every aspect! The puzzles, storyline, and acting is top tier and I would recommend this to any escape room enthusiast. The perfect group size would be 5-7 people.
The TreehouseConfusion EscapesEscape roomIRLIncredible set design and unique story. We were a group of 6 and barely escaped with a couple seconds left to spare. I would suggest at least a group of 8 to comfortably escape at a good pace. This is a great family-friendly room and perfect for team building.
The Hex RoomCross Roads Escape GamesEscape roomIRLFinally a room that's 100% worth the hype! The Hex Room is a fun story with a unique set up. Our game master, Ben, was super welcoming and enthusiastic throughout our entire experience. The room is equal parts creepy, corky, and creative. 10/10 would do it again.
13th BasementExit Game OC - AnaheimEscape roomIRLIf you’re a fan of GENRE RECOMBINANTS, this one is for you! This was a great escape room because of the size and variations of the puzzles. There are a great series of rooms parodying the typical escape room. You will be blindfolded for a segment of this room but clean and brand new blindfolds are provided to each player. I LOVE mindful and hygienic practices. 👏🏽 I specifically also appreciated the ADA accessibility of the escape room and unique touches by the game masters. The game masters shared a warm welcome and also entertained any questions and comments we had at the end. They shared their insight behind game development and even shared a few of their favorite escape rooms in the area.

The Curse Of The Black KnightEscapeX Rooms - IrvineEscape roomIRLThis room is incredible! You are completely immersed into the storyline by the engaging set design, music, and overall vibe. Puzzles were intricately unique and some were never before seen at any other rooms. Note: Not ADA accessible, requires some crawling and staircases.
The Mad RapperScenario Escape RoomEscape roomIRLUnique and creative theme! Music lovers will enjoy this room. The non linear order of puzzles lets teams divide and conquer. It was a bit tough for a 3 player team, ideally this room would take 4+ players.
