Dr. Hader’s Cartoon World

DHCW’s only downfall is the sheer AMOUNT of physical number and word locks around the room. The ways you GET the codes themselves are certainly creative but at some point it becomes a lot when each space you open is just covered in locked boxes and doors. The story is a lot of fun and the brownie points at the end give quick players a fun extra challenge including some of the hardest puzzles in the game.

Did the room with 3 people total and felt the most satisfied. I would change nothing! The room was fun and we enjoyed the extra brownie points puzzles at the end!

Played this room right after mad rapper! Loved how different this room was. There are extra brownie puzzles at the end if you have extra time. Shout out to Andy for letting us do a back to back room!

Loved the game play and so proud to have completed the room with all the “brownie points”and no hints - excited for them to hopefully build more rooms. Unique puzzles with the fun soundtrack that keeps the game play high energy.

Loved this room and all of its puzzles! I would highly recommend it as an escape room “must do”. It’s just one of those rooms that makes you smile and feel young again!

Very cool room with strong theming and immersion. Flow and puzzles were great and fun that there were bonus puzzles to finish at the end!

This was a unique theme with creative elements! We were a bit confused on the storyline, but still had fun.

This is a light dislike. I generally thumbs down rooms where I feel like I wouldn’t recommend them and feel like I wasted time on it, and this falls into that category. The good: fun theme! Some cute puzzles! A bonus round for when you finish early that you can solve for some extra trivia! The bad: one puzzle is just a really difficult skill challenge where it’s easy to lose track of what you’ve done and haven’t done. My other team member spent like 15 mins on it straight. I also was extremely stuck on something, had to get a hint for it, and then the lock was jammed (or maybe I’m just weak idk). I didn’t find most of the rest of the puzzles particularly interesting.

I would 100% recommend this room to others. Malcom and Nate were understanding of our situation with one of our players and were very accommodating. In addition to this, they were great game masters that made sure our game went smoothly. They gave hints at the most perfect times, and we were able to finish both rooms in good time. The rooms were both so unique and engaging, and we can say that this was one of our most favorite room experiences, especially in the OC area. Again, thanks to Nate and Malcom for such an amazing experience!

Dr Hader’s was a lot of fun! The concept and theming of this room was very creative and interactive. The game play was very smooth and had a mixture of high tech, gen 1, and lock and key puzzles. I enjoyed how this escape room relied heavily on team work and communication because it forced all of our members to interact with each other and engage with each piece of the puzzles that were given to us. It followed a semi non-linear format and flowed really well with one another. I would say that a group of 4 players max would be best so that each member is able to participate more. We had a large group, so it was a bit challenging due to the physical space and the gameplay as a team of 6.
