The Escape

I've done a few "taken" style rooms and this was one of my top favorite ones, our group of 4 got split while we were "handcuffed" which added to the pressure of trying to help ourselves out of the handcuffs before we could even start getting out of the room. Overall puzzles were fun and enjoyed the dark theme. While it may seem scary, this wasn't a horror themed room like a few others do. If you enjoy that thrill aspect of being "taken" this is a good one! Company is excellent as well.

A fun gen one type split start. Unlockables are really solid older style puzzle fests, this room is no exception. We went with four and I think that was a great number. Really great customer service and the owner Edwin is a true enthusiast.

The separated start for this game was it’s biggest charm, especially because they have five different areas to handcuff your group! We did it with eight intelligent people, and we blew through it very quickly, and only used a hint or two. The room is designed for a bigger crowd, so I would say the ideal number is probably five or six.

My favorite escape room to date. The puzzles were interesting and engaging. All of the space was hugely immersive and the storyline and plot kept getting thicker and thicker. The ending is so good and unexpected! I only wish I could play it again. Completed with 4 players, I would recommend no more no less.

Loved this room! It's very low tech, but still quite challenging.

While I think this was a good room with interesting puzzles, it wasn’t a favorite of mine. Some who did the room with me loved it, but it felt very difficult at times (and only had a 67% success rate for the month). I also didn’t care for the somewhat gruesome theme. On a positive note, the puzzles at the beginning were fun and creative and our game master was awesome!

Had such a great experience! Mary was our gm and we felt nothing but warmth and welcomed. Edwin the owner was there and was so nice as well. This room was definitely one of my favorite and same their other rooms!

Overall I enjoyed this room. It says it required 4 people, which it did for the beginning portion, but for much of the time I felt like 4 people was too many and that we didn’t all have things to be working on the whole time. I’d say this was one of the better rooms I’ve done in San Diego, but not the best of all the ones I’ve done in the SoCal area.

We went as a family and loved that there was something for everyone to do; we worked with a partner but independently of others from our group. We had a 7 year old with us. The blind fold part was scary for him but after that he was totally fine. Puzzles made sense and things flowed well. Excited to come back and do another room here!
