A nondescript guy stands in the lobby holding a bright green pizza box and a black paper bag. He says, “Pizza delivery for Kari?” and I nod. He hands me the box, then says, “I also have something off-menu for you,” and hands me the black paper bag. I wonder what this is. Excitedly, I […]
Inside the darkened back room of an unassuming game house is the aftermath of what was presumably a chaotic affair, though my fellow Underwriters and I aren’t quite sure what events took place before we arrived. There are two dead bodies, one lying on the floor and one slumped over in a chair, and any […]
Reality X emerged in 2018, combining the tense dread of an immersive horror experience with the puzzles and innovation of one of the best escape rooms. Their first experience, Welcome Home, gave participants the autonomy and freedom to explore a gigantic ranch house, completing puzzles while hiding (and escaping) from numerous killers stalking their every […]
I want to start this review by saying that, while I’ve personally played through more than 100 escape rooms and I absolutely love them as a hobby, I cannot consider myself to be an expert on them. Not yet, anyway (although I keep trying – someday there will be an escape room written by my […]
After a hit one-day run during 2018’s Hollywood Fringe Festival (that I went to and enjoyed tremendously), the company behind Escape from Godot is bringing their unique escape room/immersive production hybrid back to Los Angeles during the month of March. We reached out to creators “Mister and Mischief” to get more details on both their […]
This review of Cross Roads Escape Games: The Psych Ward does not contain any spoilers. The orderly insists that we line up; it is time to take a vote. There are Insane patients amongst our ranks, determined to bring us down. It is up to us, the Sane, to sniff them out. The orderly tallies up […]
In a small, slightly cramped and darkened room, the illumination of a TV set is our only light source. A grizzled news reporter recounts the series of events which led up to the harrowing murder of a little girl named Zoe. Little did we know, this broadcast was simply a harbinger of things to come. […]
The following review of Dream Study #114 contains spoilers. I had a strange dream the other night. I dreamt it was 1983, and I was at a small bar in Los Angeles, wandering among the crowd, drinking, talking, laughing. I spied a small bookcase in the corner, and walked over to pick up a […]
I arrive in a quiet corner of Vegas at an unassuming warehouse. An Egan & Co Meat Products sign flashes against the night sky as a neon cleaver drops slowly toward the street below. I think to myself: could this really be the Saw Escape Room? No branding on the outside leads me to believe it […]
When we first reviewed ZOE, the first escape room by Escapade Games in Fullerton, CA, we called it “the scariest and most immersive escape room” we’ve been to. This was in large part due to the innovative puzzles, the gorgeously creepy set design and, of course, the terrifying actors that chase you from room to […]
