Cyberpunk Samurai

As unexpected a combination as Cyberpunk and Samurai is, it works for this room. The time travel element is very cool and the puzzles have some fun tricks and well-implemented ideas. There weren’t too many number codes which is always enjoyable. Loved the way the story progressed and pieces of the room opened before us. And though we didn’t ask for any hints, Julian was a great guide to greet us and talk us through things after the game.

all sizzle, no steak. cool set pieces and lots of interesting mechanics and tech, but not intuitive puzzle. you find yourself just trying stuff for the hell of it and somehow that works.

Didn't love the beginning or end of the room but the Samurai portion was very immersive and cool set design.

We loved this room! It was odd, quirky, and fun. No locks and some really different puzzles. This would be a perfect game for two folks who love escape rooms or three folks looking for something different. Loved this room, I can understand how some folks don’t love it but we did

Don’t be like me. Don’t misunderstand the concept of the room as being a mishmash of elements from both cyberpunk and samurai genre time periods. Unlike the company’s Steampunk Alice room, which is a fun mishmash of juxtaposed ideas, Cyberpunk Samurai is segregated into different parts based on both genres, but not both genres at once. The samurai segment was beautiful and I would have loved to see an ENTIRE room based on it. On the flip side, the puzzles in the cyberpunk area, particularly some that cleverly split the group, are astounding. I wouldn’t have minded seeing a fully-fleshed out room based on this anarchist dystopian future. Although I enjoyed both parts very much, the mixed but separated genre ideas (which of course there is a story reason for) made me feel like I was only getting bite-sized tastes of greatness instead of a full gourmet escape meal extravaganza. Don’t make my mistake and assume this is a room about dystopian robot samurai, but try it out if you are a fan of both!

I loved the theme! Very cool room with cool puzzles 🧩 the transportation effect was very well done executed

Overall the room design was done well but didn’t really feel like the theme made sense. If theme doesn’t really matter to you, then great because the puzzles also didn’t make sense. Also, most of the game mechanics didn’t work. Drove an hr for this and was disappointed.

Cyberpunk Samurai had very unique set design and theming from any game we’ve played. There was one moment that wowed us and was pretty fun. Unfortunately, I’m not sure I want to come back here as one high mechanical puzzle that we were very excited to solve was broken and when we notified the game master they just progressed us to the end of the game, which was so disappointing because it was the final puzzle. I wish this was fixed but got the impression it’s broken a lot. The game master seemed overwhelmed because check in was slow and I’d expect them to proactively help us if they see the game is broken but didn’t do anything until we asked for help when we couldn’t get it to work. Game master also didn’t offer to take our photo which is something we expect to see. I will say this location has one of the best lobbies in all of LA!

This room was a ton of fun and had never done a theme like it. Maze Rooms always has beautiful set design and this room was stunning. Puzzles were challenging but not hard. Lots of fun high tech features made this room interesting and extremely immersive!

cyberpunk samarai is such a well thought out room. i was left in awe from the beauty of the room, as well as the complexity of the room’s designs. as for the puzzles, they were very interactive and i really enjoyed figuring them out. all i can say is do not miss out on this experience. it is one of a kind and one that you simply cannot miss.
