The Man From BeyondStrange Bird ImmersiveEscape roomIRLGreat experience overall, the performances by the actors were absolutely amazing and the set from start to finish was very immersive. The puzzles themselves weren’t particularly hard but fit well with the theme of the story
UndercookedOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLVery fun take on an escape room, you are putting together recipes rather than trying to escape the room. Set design and puzzles were all immaculate However I am very competitive and some cons here is that finishing everything faster does not add any points to your score, and also there were apparently bonus points to get depending on when you finish certain recipes and this was not told to us at all

Paradox Project 2: Το Βιβλιοπωλείον [The Bookstore]Paradox ProjectEscape roomIRLOne of the best escape rooms I’ve been to by far. The entire building is used as a single escape room and the puzzles are very unique but not impossible to solve. There are a lot of different rooms and settings to take you through the story and is extremely immersive.
Nightmare HotelGame Over Escape Rooms - KatyEscape roomIRLOverall a pretty good escape room with a couple of jump scares. The puzzles were not particularly hard but were very interesting and different
Jazz ParlorEscape My RoomEscape roomIRLOverall a standard escape room but is designed well and puzzles were very interesting. A little bit of outside knowledge is helpful but not necessary
Men In Suits (MIS)Maze Rooms - LAXEscape roomIRLTheme for this room is amazing and very fun. The puzzles were also great and innovative, requiring non-traditional methods to solve them. However some feedback is the one of the rooms was unnecessarily loud, and small parts of the last room were not that intuitive
Escape: The Upside DownExtraordinary EscapesEscape roomIRLTLDR: Design and story were great, but the room relied heavily on physically finding pieces of the puzzle and mechanical components which made the room seem tedious and long Pros: The set design was really good and immersive, and the component where the group needed to split up and work together was very nice although knowing it before booking would have been helpful. The story also was very fitting of the theme Cons: The puzzle themselves weren’t super hard but there were just so many of them that went in sequential order, it felt like the sheer number of puzzles was the hard part. General remarks (not pro or con): this room relies extremely heavily on mechanical locks, I think almost all the solutions was using a key or code to open a lock. Additionally, the attention to detail is extremely important, all the puzzles we got stuck on involved us not finding a key/part of the puzzle rather than it being hard to piece the solution together or figuring it out
Lunar MissionMaze Rooms - VermontEscape roomIRLThis room had a lot of potential and I could see it becoming a “love” for me if they refreshed the room. The theme and story made sense but was not really that special, I feel like some of the puzzles were pretty fun and wasn’t the classic lock-and-key puzzles, they were creative and the non-linearness of the room stood out but was very worn down Some key issues with the room: 1. A crucial piece of the puzzle in the first room was missing and we could not figure out why we couldn’t solve the puzzle, we called the GM for a good couple minutes asking for a hint but they were not paying attention / not in the GM room so were not responding and we were even contemplating to call the location with our phones to see what was going on. Turns out they didn’t reset the room properly and didn’t place the piece of the puzzle needed back in the room 2. A lot of the puzzles were very worn down and falling apart 3. One room was very dimly lit we could not read the puzzle properly and took us a bit more time than we wanted bc of the visibility issue. At least adding in some blue light or glow in the dark would help
Escape from The Runaway TrainTokyo Mystery CircusEscape roomIRLDo not recommend this escape room. This is more like a series of puzzles in 9 different rooms. All the puzzles were extremely easy until the final room which gives a 10 min time limit separate from the overall time. The experience allows for multiple groups to play at once some it is a series of rooms however if you complete the rooms faster you have to stand around waiting for the group ahead to finish. We ended up having to wait a total of 30 minutes spread across four rooms because of this and was just wasting our time
