Haunting at Haruka HighOmescape - SunnyvaleEscape roomIRLAwesome!! Definitely not our first escape room, but this one stood out for its incredible pacing, great prop design, and super thematic puzzle based story telling. Mostly no filler puzzles and definitely good for a larger group (maybe 5-6). Great if you love highly themed puzzles and spooky stories.

The Official SAW EscapeSaw Escape RoomEscape roomIRLPlayed this game VIP with a group of 10, mix of enthusiasts and family. We knew not to expect a typical escape experience, but this room disappointed for too many reasons. The "actor" in the room was barely in character and mostly yelled very obvious hints at us that we specifically asked not to receive. It got to the point where they were yelling hints while we actively were inputting solutions. Being rushed through each room really ruined the immersion and ability to appreciate the wonderfully designed sets and ambience. There's also some hazards like hard to see level changes, and many of the noise effects are WAY too loud. Overall not a great experience, but possibly worth it for Saw fans and general tourists. I wouldn't recommend it for escape fans, and I definitely wouldn't want to pay full price.
