Voodoo

Medieval Room: In search of the fountain of youth, we had to get our fill of the miracle water before time ran out. Voodoo Room: A Voodoo queen has cursed our town. We had to break into her shop and break the curse. Pros: We arrived in beautiful San Diego ready to explore the city and play some amazing escape rooms. Lockdown San Diego dd not let us down. The gamemasters at Lockdown San Diego greeted us when we walked in and immediately impressed us with their enthusiasm and efficiency. Because we play so many rooms, we especially appreciate when gamemasters are able to shorten their intro for enthusiasts. Mark and Nina introduced us to our story lines in the Medieval and Voodoo Rooms. Once we entered the rooms, we were immediately impressed by the set design. Each room created an immersive feel that gave us the full sense that we were actually in a Voodoo shop or Medieval castle. This only enhanced our experience at Lockdown. The game flow in both rooms was also very smooth. Puzzles flowed logically from one to the other. This was evidenced by the fact that we needed only one or two hints in each room. The puzzles were aligned to the themes of the rooms and we truly enjoyed solving each puzzle. ​Cons: There was one puzzle in the Voodoo Room that stumped us for a while (we needed a hint on this one). We felt it was a bit counterintuitive but once the gamemaster corrected us, we were able to resume our flow. The tech in the rooms was a bit slow and tricky at times, but the gamemaster again helped us navigate the issues and kept the game moving. Lockdown San Diego was an excellent game-play experience for beginners and enthusiasts alike. We definitely recommend you check them out in San Diego!

Sadly, I didn’t read the reviews before going. Nobody recommends. Don’t waste your time- awful service and broken puzzles that ruined experience.

I would not recommend this room. Too easy for experienced escapers and not kept up enough for newbies. Customer service is lacking

Don’t waste your time I wouldn’t even go back if it was free. Customer Service was horrendous and it had multiple broken puzzles.

It's alright. The place needs more decoration.

This was a fun room, loved the spooky voodoo vibe and had some unique puzzles. Had a lot of people in our group so could have been less. The ending was anticlimactic

Voodoo is a fun room with a good storyline and enjoyable moments. Like the other rooms at lockdown, awesome for introducing to the hobby. I brought a corporate group here once for team building and they all loved it.

This room needed some work when we did it. Hopefully it’s fixed up now but it was riddled with broken puzzles and at one point someone needed to come in and rip a drawer open and they didn’t even stop our timer. This was also our first room with a SMELL aspect and it kind of soured the concept for us, as there were basically no smells to be had.

Pretty easy for an experienced group of four, but we had fun with the puzzles

Another fun room. Did it as a group of 6 experienced players so it was a bit easy for us but still fun and worth doing. Great room for beginners or small groups of experienced players.
