The room was listed for 2+ players, but the website made me pay for a minimum of 3, so it was pretty expensive for the two of us. There are all kinds of clues that don't actually apply to escaping the room, including several situations where tools locked in items give you hints that relate to things in the room that don't end up having any relevance. The final method of getting out of the room was unlocked and obvious pretty early on because things weren't reset properly. We didn't even really try that method because we didnt think it could possibly have been correct. The walkie talkie we were given was set to the wrong channel and not checked, the "game master" came in half-way through to fix it, then didn't respond for several minutes when we tried to contact him and then he had absolutely no idea where we were in the puzzles. A bad escape room experience is a pretty first-world-problem, but this was just straight up bad business.

GMs should be paying attention. Multiple things not set up right. Asked for help. Got ignored. When he finally came on the mic, had to ask us where we were. Didn’t even realize we’d been in the 2nd room already.

The theme and flow of this room could have been so much better, the biggest issue I have with Nixon escape is there are way too many nicknacks that don’t necessarily pertain to the game play. This was the second room done at Nixon and I liked it better than outpost but only slightly. However most of the people in our group didn’t enjoy this room and felt lost most of the time.

Gameplay

The game flow really isn’t great the set up to the game makes no sense and you are all tired up with one person on a bed.

The room is overly dark with minimal light making it so much harder to figure things out.

This room was a Gen 1 type of room which uses a bearable amount of locks and keys. Be thorough! There’s not a whole lot of context and there were some red herrings to slow you down. I have a habit of taking the bait so I did not feel satisfied solving some of the red herring puzzles. There were similar elements I’ve seen from older rooms. This room really tested our searching skills and if we looked thoroughly we would have done a better job. The room is not scary. There was a lot of crouching for some of our bad backs and knees. Pricing is a bit steep for this type of room, but don’t let this discourage you from adding this to a fun night in Uptown Whittier.

Linear. There’s not a lot of context. We had to look at things carefully to get a flow goin

Atmosphere

It was very simple. The audio was just on a loop and it was from a wireless Bluetooth speaker placed on the floor at the corner of the room.

Customer service

The Nixon crew was kind and welcoming!
