Mark as done to rate

Months have gone by since five friends vanished without a trace. Four of the missing individuals have been discovered in separate locations across the frozen hills, indicating potential foul play. Law enforcement suspects that the fifth friend, whose remains have not been found, is responsible for the crimes. Despite an extensive search, the authorities believe that the final survivor has also perished, labeling the case as a cold one and closing it. However, you have a different hypothesis. One of the four bodies found was located inside an old cabin known for a terrifying tale from the 1950s. The story goes that a man went insane and murdered his entire family and anyone who came close to the cabin. Despite his confession, the authorities never located the bodies from that crime, and the perpetrator was sentenced to death and locked up in a mental institution. Until his dying breath, he insisted that the house was haunted, and the spirits made him commit the gruesome acts of violence. Determined to uncover the truth, you and your friends venture into the hills to locate the infamous cabin and search for any signs of your missing friend. However, as you approach the cabin, you begin to feel lightheaded and pass out one by one. When you come to, you realize that your face is covered, and you can only use one hand. To make matters worse, some members of your group are missing. Can you locate your friends, find your missing companion, and escape before suffering the same fate as the family from the eerie tale? * Previously at Clever Fox in Menifee, CA.*

I really enjoyed how this was scary but not to the point of making me completely anxious the entire experience. I was still able to focus on the puzzles despite being a bit spooked! But the times they did get me, they got me real good lol. Joseph was great! He nudged us in the right direction when he knew we were close or that we maybe missed something but didnโ€™t over step. I do recommend maybe 3-4 people max personally, I could see it getting cramped in there. 2 was good for us! Theyโ€™re also generous with discount codes for later visits! Highly recommend

This room was SO FUN! Horror rooms are our favorite, the puzzles arenโ€™t incredibly hard, but with your adrenaline pumping it makes it easy to get discombobulated. The live actor in this is superb and definitely ensures you get your $ worth for the experience, he had me terrified that we wouldnโ€™t make it out alive ๐Ÿ˜‚ 10/10 do this room!

This room is great. Considering it has mainly gen 1 tech, it is superb. There is a live actor that is done well and keeps it fun. Great room for smaller teams. We did it with 2 and had less than five minutes left when we finished. I will say, it may be challenging for newer teams because youโ€™re only allowed 3 clues, so be aware!

This escape room was great. Really had us thinking throughout the entire time. I think it puts more pressure on you getting out then scare factor.

Amazing room the gm makes the whole experience. Very well done and you have to work together as you will be split up upon the start of your game. 100% will be doing more rooms with no.1 escape. You can tell that the owner takes pride in escape. Highly recommend this room.

Cold Case is the peak scariest room Iโ€™ve ever experienced. In the description, it looks as if you are stumbling upon a cold case but expect more of a hostage breakout situation. Lucas, our game master, gave us the fright of our lives. He spent a long time explaining the rules - but I think he accomplished his goal of setting the stage and hyping us up for the adrenaline rush. I was pretty convinced that I will not make it out alive after the orientation. We were chained up and they put bags over our heads. If you love puzzles, this room has more of the live actor interaction than the puzzles themselves. They have a well oiled machine so that groups get the most out of their hour. They will come in more frequently if your group is solving the puzzles too quickly. So just know that coming in - 70% live actor immersion, 30% puzzles. Clever Fox Escape Rooms would easily be one of my favorite โ€œhorrorโ€ rooms - and Iโ€™ve done the classic scary ones (Zoe Reborn, Project Minotaur, Resurrection, etc.) You can tell that the game masters and the owners really do care about their rooms and they are proud of what theyโ€™ve designed. Itโ€™s not a high budget room by any means but you will get your monies worth in scares. Iโ€™m excited to come back and try their other rooms. Again, shout out to Lucas for helping us celebrate our friendโ€™s birthday with a memorable experience!

This was a scary and exciting escape room. Our GM Hayden was great and made the room exciting and kept us on our toes. Puzzles weren't incredibly hard but you had to work together and we liked that!

This was our groupโ€™s first experience doing an escape room. While we enjoyed it overall, I will say there isnโ€™t much cold case solving. It was more like a hostage breakout situation. Itโ€™s more horror based than putting together clues to solve a murder. The live actor comes in periodically to mess with you and will def give you a jump scare. They bang things and touch you (not inappropriately) while you are handcuffed and have a bag over your head. My friend was very triggered and had a hard time getting through it. She almost tapped out but she made it through. It was still fun overall and we made it out with 1:30 to spare

Loved this game, had some good jump scares and was in a pretty spooky environment. Wasnโ€™t too scary, went with one of my friends who gets scared and he was fine. Loved the live actor element, cleverly designed game, highly recommend!

Staff was welcoming, chatted with our game master Lucas about horror for a while before we started our game.
