Treasure IslandBrain Games Escape RoomEscape roomIRLMy partner and I played this room after the laboratory and you can tell the business went all out for this room. The props, decorations, theme, and puzzles are all really immersive. There are several Easter eggs and little goodies hidden around that made us laugh. We did struggle a little with just the two of us. This room would definitely be easier with a group of 4-5. The puzzles don’t have to be solved linearly so you can divide and conquer. This room is a lot more physical puzzles then high tech puzzles which I definitely enjoyed
Irvine School Of Wizardry And The Dragon WandHidden DonkeyEscape roomIRLMy partner and I were recommended this room by another business and it did not disappoint. The use of wands, spells, and potions is such an amazing experience for anyone who is a fan of the wizarding world. One of my favorite parts is when you are struggling or need a hint, it’s provided by one of the characters in the story not the GM. I definitely wouldn’t recommend a group bigger than 3-4. The puzzles don’t have a lot of elements that need to be divided and conquered. Plus it would be a real squeeze in some of the rooms with bigger groups.
WarlockedQuest Room - Redondo BeachEscape roomIRLTo be honest, this was the easiest room I’ve ever done. The puzzles were straight forward and very obvious. There wasn’t anything particularly challenging. We have to ask for one clue. The set design and atmosphere was great all of the details were really cute and fun. It just wasn’t a satisfying solve
An Office EscapeCinema Escape Rooms - Los AlamitosEscape roomIRLThis room was incredible. All of the elements of the show that were brought into this room make it really fun and enjoyable. There are so many little Easter eggs that just add the experience of solving this room. Highly recommend
AmnesiaQuest Room - Culver CityEscape roomIRLThis room was extremely easy. The puzzles only took very simple logic and observation skills. The room was really suspenseful and had creepy props and moments which made it more fun. But it definitely wasn’t a challenge.
The Mad Scientist [prev. The Laboratory]Brain Games Escape RoomEscape roomIRLThis room was the first one my team did at this location and it was fun. The interior design and story aren’t out of this world but the puzzles were fun to solve and satisfying. This room is easy with 2 people. I’d also recommend if for first timers it’s an easy step into escape rooms
Gold RushThe Escape Game - IrvineEscape roomIRLSuch an incredible experience. The entire game was extremely immersive. You’re given 60 mins with unlimited hints. The props were incredible as were the scenes
Mission's Breakout: The Ultimate Bank HeistMission Escape GamesEscape roomIRLThis room became my favorite room immediately after completing it. My partner and I were in love with the set design and how well the story was integrated into the room. There was a perfect mix of locks and physical puzzles as well as interactive and high tech puzzles. The music was a little daunting which wasn’t helpful but it did add to the pressure of the game. A few of the props were a little worn out but not broken or unusable. I had such an incredible time with this room. We only needed two hints but other than that we’re able to put together which clue went with which puzzle
The DepthsThe Escape Game - IrvineEscape roomIRLThis first half of this game is very electronic heavy and the second half is a little more of physical puzzles. Overall I really enjoyed the experience. The storyline was really fun and the experience was really immersive. For anyone who is claustrophobic or nervous when they see the submarine, don’t worry. The rooms are normal size and open with high ceilings. You don’t feel like you’re being squished. I’d recommend 4 people just because there are a few puzzles that need a lot of back and forth. And you can divide and conquer other puzzles
Escape The HydeoutMission Escape GamesEscape roomIRLThis room was fun and I really loved the set design but the biggest problem my partner and I faced was trying to find out which clue went with which puzzle we were trying to solve. It was very murky and not intuitive all of the hints we used (I believe we needed 5) were used to figure out where to go next. It was a fun room but a bit of a let down
