Irvine School of Wizardry and the Goblin's Secrets

Wow! Put this one in your must do list! The attention to detail is off the charts. The best part is that we found out that the GM can increase the difficulty based on the group’s experience to get the most out of the hour. I can’t wait until “part 2” is opened. They have been working on this one for years and yes it was worth the wait. 😍

Absolutely phenomenal + unique experience! Hidden Donkey has done it AGAIN, in a whole new way! Do yourself a favor and book this NOW 🥳

Another amazing experience by Hidden Donkey! You don’t need any prior knowledge to complete the room, and it’s clear just how much love was put into the set design, puzzles, and atmosphere. Amazing experience!

Hidden Donkey is one of the best escape rooms in OC! They currently only have 2 escape rooms, but I love both! I do prefer the other one over this escape room just because the other room had more puzzles and the puzzles were more intricate. BUT this one is definitely more theatrical. I can't wait what they have in store for us next! #teamslytherin 🐍

Good — a bit linear and a few logic jumps. Cute and well produced. Room seems a bit overhyped, though. Good but not great.

This was a very whimsical escape room! You definitely felt like you were in the wizardry world, and what made this a unique experience was the tech and mechanical aspects that went into this room. You can tell that the creators put a lot of work and creativity into their puzzles, props, and set design. As a group of 3, we had a great time together! This escape room is linear, so 3-4 players are a good fit to communicate, work together, and think outside the box. There was so much to look at, and we tried our best not to get distracted by how magical this escape room felt! Haha. I would highly recommend this escape room, especially if you’re into the fantasy theme and Harry Potter!

Every Harry Potter fan needs to play this room!

I think this was one room where I gasped at every corner because of how cool and magical this room was. I would definitely play this room again when they are done with the other part

Another really pretty and passionate room from Hidden Donkey. Reccomend doing both rooms back to back. A lot of the puzzles are creative and unique. Made me go woahhhh every time we solved something.

Wow! Just wow. Extremely immersive, SO imaginative. The puzzles were really unique, and there was a MAJOR wow moment. It was really fun doing spells and the way the puzzles flowed kept things interesting. Can’t wait to do the other room here.
