One of the best scary rooms in OC. Connor and Logan killed it as gamemaster for our group. Darkness apart of it and it worked for us.

P much in the dark the whole time but when you get any light it almost felt scarier then without the light also getting camcorder footage at the end is a real treat
Story
Usually the story tends to disappear in a room but this one definitely doesn’t

I’d say 3 felt good but if you need a buddy system if you need to split up 4 is better.

There’s padded flooring where you have to crawl which was nice and when you hide it’s relatively small spaces. You don’t really have to run but it’s not a long distance if you do.
Easy to find location
Yes
They give you instructions for when you arrive so it’s not hard to find

It’s a small lot but more parking in the rear.

The Hide is a fun, mysterious, and interactive adult game of Hide-and-Seek with the elements of a scare actor, intense darkness, bloody props, and suspenseful music. What I liked most about this room was how much was compacted into the physical space, the interactive “hide-and-seek” element with a scare actor, and the ability to video record using the Escape Room Era’s devices. This room is very immersive which accounts for the laughs, fun, and memories that are made in this room. As you are an investigator, this room truly makes you feel like you’re investigating and having to “hide” when you’re interrupted. We truly had a lot of fun in this escape room! It’s more so about what you can’t see vs what you can see. The real fear factor in this escape room is your own mind. Can you escape?
Gameplay
The game play made sense to the story, but there were a few puzzles that we didn’t agree with and there were some slow parts throughout the game play, but overall, still such a fun escape room with the added darkness and scare actor.
Atmosphere
With the physical space, they made great use of what they had. They really fit a lot into The Hide through their use of props, set design, architecture and space. My favorite part would have to be the music though because even though you know what the space looks like, it’s the darkness and music that psychologically challenges you with what you can’t see but with your own mind. Lol
Customer service
The GMs were great! Very theatrical, stayed in character, and engaging with the storytelling and guidance.

Due to the physical space, 4 would be the most ideal.

My group and I ended our escape room day with this room and sadly, the hype did not live up to our experience. When they say pitch black, this room had no ounce of light in the beginning whatsoever. We were expected to use the red dot from our flashlight to move around and they didn’t give everyone a flashlight so it was hard to navigate. The scares were also not as good because we were just hiding in select areas of the room but our game masters did the best they could with the design they had! The storyline and the puzzles also need some work to make this experience a memorable one. Overall, this was just a miss but we also know that the owners are considering a revamping of this room.

My group and I had a great time. It was a perfectly balanced horror escape room that had a great flow. This was a linear style puzzle flow but the immersion kept everyone engaged. Our game Master (Deepak) was amazing and one of the best that I have ever worked with. Overall, Escape Room Era was a great time and I am looking forward to trying their other rooms.
Gameplay
Linear style puzzles but they had a great flow and kept my group engaged throughout the entire room.
Atmosphere
Atmosphere was top notch. The atmosphere is what made the room great. The room theming and sound effect timing was on point.
Customer service
Our game Master (Deepak) was one of the best Game Masters that I have ever worked with.
Live actors
Yes
I would compare the scare level to something similar to theme park haunts (Halloween Horror Nights).

The storyline, props and gamemaster need work to make this room good. This room is good for 4 people unless you want to be standing in the dark with nothing to do. Some lights weren’t working, the game master was hard to understand, ….this was just a miss overall.
