We had fun with this one. There was several puzzles that required good communication and team solving which I liked. Heist theme pretty typical

It was a good room for a party of 4. We were able to get out with time to spare and there were puzzles that you don’t really see at other companies or rooms.

Pros: interesting story, interesting idea, and lots of interesting rooms. It wasn’t a bad room, but I think some puzzles were difficult to solve due to wear or not being as intuitive. We were confused on a few parts as it didn’t flow or make sense. Plus there was a section that could have used better lighting to help solve the puzzle.

It was cool to feel like you were in an art gallery and in someone’s private study.
Customer service
The GM was great especially at such a late night. She was rooting for us, and loved that we booked a 2nd room back to back.

There was a plaque that was falling off, but that threw us off because we didn’t know if we should touch them or open them. Which we needed to open another one to open another puzzle.

Some of the puzzles were not clear at all. It was a decent game, but I'd say about 6 out of 10

Solid game! Nothing too difficult, with the hardest part being that it was sometimes unclear when certain combinations would actually work on the electronic locks because I got false negatives. Would idea with solid enough execution. A little more sensory feedback would help players understand when you unlock progression, but overall fun experience and perfect for 1 person!

Irvine Spectrum is a big shopping center so there’s tons of parking but expect a bit of a walk

This room was fun and one of the more difficult rooms 8/10. It was interesting to feel like you were in a tiny art museum. I would recommend a group of 4-5 people for this room since it was a smaller room. Our GM was cool and we always love doing escape rooms at this company. The GM couldn’t tell me if the room was linear when I asked but it was.

Really pretty room design as well as puzzle flow that made a lot of sense. Didn't realize The Escape Game is a public game, and I honestly think it takes away from the experience. This time I got cool people so wasn't too bad but, I can see it being a bad experience if you get paired with the wrong people.
Gameplay
Puzzles were logical, and made sense in the room.
Atmosphere
Pretty immersive, again feel like making it a public game takes it away, really only do these rooms if you have 8 people.
Customer service
Game masters were awesome and enthusisastic!

My girlfriend and I failed this room with quite a few puzzles left to solve. The Heist is definitely this locations hardest room to escape. The combination of things to keep track of and clever technological puzzles made this room extremely difficult.
Gameplay
Difficult semi-linear gameplay
Atmosphere
Atmosphere was great, the room made you feel like you were somewhere far away.
Customer service
GM Adrian was great.
Story
Great story

Of all the games here, I think this one was the weakest. Definitely needs some TLC, some wear and tear on game pieces. Definitely on the more difficult side. Still got that TEG magic though!
