Look for the ESCAPE ROOM sign over head and the mirrored front windows. They have two rooms: "The Amazing Argo: A Steampunk Adventure" and "The Lost Treasure of El Capitan". We chose to do the Argo room. We were greeted by Alain, who would be our game master. After scanning a QR code on the TV to complete the online waiver, we were escorted into the room and our time began. All parts of room are immersive and there are a lot of really great props and display items that fit the theme of being on a steampunk airship well. The room is mostly non-linear, but flows well, and has a big variety of puzzles with just a few locks, quite a few mechanical puzzles, and even a few arcade style puzzles. There was one puzzle that wasn't properly reset but Alain was quick to resolve the issue. He gave us helpful hints without totally giving the solution away when we asked for help a few times which I always appreciate. This was a close one, but the two of us escaped right at the 60 minute mark. Afterwards, we enjoyed discussing elements of the room and other rooms in SoCal with Alain. He also gave us a quick view of the El Capitan room which I'm sure we will return to try. They are currently building a third room Code Black which will be a mostly completely dark room. Their rooms are very reasonably priced at only $50 per person for two people. The price per person goes down if you have a bigger group. Give their rooms a try!

My family and I decided to do an escape room before one of the kids goes off to college. I am glad we got to experience the Maneater! The experience was pretty different and had my heart rate going! This is a great place for a group of friends or family to test your skills under pressure. There was definitely some laughs, screams, blood juice and pain. Thanks Mr.G for this awesome experience, you really put thoughts and time into this! I don't know what others are complaining about... Everyone was in character the moment you arrive. They are a little rough, but you do sign a waiver. You should know what you signed up for! Bring a towel for after the game, you will need to clean up some mess! One thing my group failed at was to be organized and pay attention to small details! I'll come back again and would love to try Pure Evil!

My fiancé was visiting from Iowa and my friends and I live about 1.5hrs away. While driving I received a text 17 minutes before that the experience was canceled due to technical difficulties. Were we annoyed that we drove 1.5hrs for no reason and wasted valuable, precious time? Yes. However, I get it, things happen. In an email they sent me, they had asked if we'd like to reschedule or get a refund. I asked for a refund. I have emailed them on 4 different occasions. The day of, the 20th, 22nd, 25th, and the 27th asking for a refund and/or the next steps to get our money back. No response. The phone number on their website is disconnected so I couldn't get through to anyone. To spend $320 and not even get one single reply is ridiculous. I had to file a claim and take it up with the Better Business Bureau. Very tacky business. Will NOT be recommending this experience to anyone and I recommend you don't waste your time either. I should have known better than to expect much considering how many typos they had on their confirmation email.

The qualities of all the rooms are amazing - there's so much thought and effort put into building all the rooms. Experience: I want to call out our game masters - Alyse and Vienna were amazing! They were so friendly and helpful, answering all the questions that we had. It was a joy to have them as GMs. Overall, I loved all three rooms - the puzzles, decorations, and story were all great! Inside Job: This room has a minimum for 5 people which makes sense because there's so many puzzles you can do which is perfect! I appreciated the variety of puzzle that they had and it was nice because everyone was always working on something. This is also super unique since it's a former bank! Definitely worth the try! Villains Vendetta: This room is a lot smaller compared to knightfall and Inside job but it utilized the space well. There were so many puzzles - some easy, some challenging. It was super fun and I loved the theming and decorations. Knightfall: If you're into medieval themed rooms, this is the room for you! I loved the interactive pieces through out the room. Similar to the other rooms, there are multiple things you can work on which makes it more satisfying for larger groups. Price: Average price for an escape room. I would say it's pretty affordable and there are deals often! Parking: There is plenty of parking - we had no issues finding parking.

Our host Alisa was a huge part of why this experience was so positive, as she had great energy and not only set the tone in advance of the experience, but also maintained character throughout the experience and even spent time debriefing with us afterwords. She also kindly gave us the opportunity to extend our time and continue playing so that we would walk out victorious. The experience itself was done exceptionally well, inclusive of the technology and unique components, including lights, sounds, props and interesting puzzles. Afterwards, she gave us a sneak peek into a different themed room, and we all agreed that we want to go back. This could easily get addicting! I would highly recommend this activity for any work group.

We hired Dads Casino to have a couple of blackjack and roulette tables along with live dealers to play in their backyard. Our guests were thrilled to be playing for real money. I was in charge of the buy-ins and the dealers would hand them the amount of chips to play. I am very impressed with the staff and crew. They were so accommodating and punctual. Showed up on time for set up with plenty of time to prepare. They communicated well with me on what I wanted and my concerns with the space we had to play. Both of the gentlemen knew their stuff and had a personality too! Reminds you of a good time sitting at a Vegas table because it's all about the VIBE. I definitely recommend this company to others and I will definitely be using their services in the near future for my next party!

Still trying to get my deposit back. **Update** I have records and screenshots of my calls, left numerous voicemails on the phone number they provided which now they are saying they don't receive voicemails on. In which I asked for a return call, eventually then having to ask for a refund. There was never an attempt to respond to my email or phone calls until it was too late and my review was in, then it was "I was going to respond today". Same lie everyone says when they get called out or caught in a lie. Poor communication, no accountability, unorganized and the worst customer service.
