This was a hard room! Very well-designed and very fun… but we got stuck on a puzzle in the first room and lost a lot of time there :(

Absolutely loved this room. I’ve completely over 15 escape rooms and this one was easily top 3. The room is super immersive and the decorations are incredible. Loved the mix of mechanical and technology puzzles. The story was really well thought out and the narrator was clear and a pleasure to listen to. I think this room is a little bit harder than medium. It’s not impossible but you have to work for it

PRODUCTIONNNN. Loved that the puzzles were all unique and thought through. Non linear and beyond lock and key puzzles done very well. One of the best rooms I’ve done in SoCal so far!

This seemed like the most functional and well executed room at this company - only one door was broken and only one piece of technology was frustratingly finicky. Game master Andi was fantastic! Room is probably best for 3-5 people, not spooky, very immersive.
Gameplay
Management at this company needs to do better. This is their most functional room, but it still had one broken door and a very finicky piece of technology.

Our game master Shai was so energetic and fun, she made us not feel so bad about taking way more hints than we normally do and was a really good hype woman 😊. We weren’t as observant as we should have been but it’s a good room for more seasoned escape room fanatics that like lots of puzzles. The black cat theme also is cute and makes it different from all the other Egyptian rooms out there!

This was a fun immersive room. Planet Escapes and Exodus teamed up to bring Black Cat to life and they did a great job! The puzzles made sense and were fun to solve. The Egyptian theme could be a smorgasbord of puzzles. They could have gone hard on the puzzle design and quantity but they kept it simple and it was just right. Shi was our host and her energy was infectious. Don’t miss out on Black Cat!!

Overall this was a fun room. The set design was about average, the puzzles were pretty straightforward and nothing too unique. It still had some fun puzzles and cute elements. A couple of the puzzles were a little frustrating simply because they were hard to see. Overall a good experience, but probably forgettable. Still a fun family night out.

nothing groundbreaking, but fun room

This one was really really fun! My boyfriend and I really loved the story—it was cute and memorable. The way you got information was interesting, and some of the puzzle chains were really satisfying! Also, we love cats so that helped lol. Our GM Shai was great! We got out with 30 seconds to spare!

An absolutely beautiful take on a egyptian themed room. Lots of well thought puzzles and everything tied together well and left a lasting impression. I appreciate our GM who could not stop supporting us haha, really appreciate her inputs and she even stayed later than their last shift for us.
