    We won the winery escape room
    Christine L.

    Incredible fun time for puzzling guests. My favorite game is Spector Inspector because 1. Theme 2. puzzle creativity. All of the games are good. I'd recommend Surf or Sherlock theme for new players to start.

    Our Game Master was Ayanna! She was great, took the time to give us the rundown of the rules and…read moremade sure to ask if we wanted hints and how best to receive them Our game was a bit tricky but we were able to make it through, and Ayanna was always right there when we were waving our hands up clueless, so shout out to her! A few of the puzzles were like "how would anyone have guessed this without help" but that made it a more fun challenge for us to try and figure it out. Lots of things to do in this room, you'll definitely get your money's worth with tasks and puzzles. I'd be very much interested in coming back and trying the other rooms at this location.

    Came to this escape room to celebrate a friends birthday. It's located in a small corner plaza…read moreacross from Bella Terra. Upon arrival, they show a video of how the rooms work. Phones aren't allowed in the rooms and they provided lockers to leave personal belongings. There were 5 different rooms to choose from. We chose to do the Zombie Apocalypse. They have two rooms that are supposed to be scarier and two that are not scary at all. The zombie was in between. We had one hour to complete the room. The room had a bunch of clues. Some were easier than others. We actually bypassed 3 of the locks because we accidentally got the factory reset. That took a little bit out of the fun for us since we didn't need to find the codes for those locks. We end up finishing with 26 minutes left on the clock. Our game master helped out with clues when we needed it and got stubborn and stuck on a single clue. There was 6 of us and total came out to $42/person. This room was fun, but for this price, I was expecting a more intricate escape room with more rooms or interactions. I'd be fun to come back to try the other rooms they have, but I might prefer to go to a different escape room instead.

The staff was so friendly and extremely helpful with hints which made us come back again and try again at the lost point lodge with our mom. We did it!! It was challenging and very fun!! I highly recommend. I don't remember the sweet girl's name who helped us but it was a blast!! Our ages range from 16-43 and we found the puzzles perfect for us. Will definitely come back again! Ps!! Beware Bigfoot!!

    We went for the Neon Splatter Paint experience. Our original reservation was a week earlier, but…read morethey had run out of neon paint, so we had to rebook for the following week. We paid an additional $25 each to throw darts at paint balloons, but instead, we received reusable paint balls that we had to fill with water and a bit of neon paint ourselves. Considering we paid $50 for the additional experience, you'd think they would provide more paint. Since the paint balls were mostly water, the experience was not what was advertised. Overall, there was a lack of ownership over our experience at Tustin Brainy Actz. They were not prepared to receive us on either occasion. I do not recommend their paint experience, as I felt there was a lot of false advertising. They also do not provide goggles or shoe covers as mentioned on their official site, only a poncho.

Upon entrance…read moresign on door that says to wait.. the place is surrounded with cameras so the host will see you and your party walking up. Parking isn't too bad.. we parked in front of the building. Once we entered we were greeted with this amazing smile, with a strong vibrant voice telling us about the do's and don'ts. Once we said we were ready, the host spun around and put her shades on and it was game on. I will say this.. everything is a clue, every object and every word. Read in between the lines. Have fun and relax. Most importantly .... ESCAPE ESCAPE ESCAPE LOLLLLL

    We have done a lot of escape rooms but few in LA. We were going to be in the area so we thought we…read morewould leave early and try one of the rooms here at Escape Long Beach. There are two parking spots right in front of the location and both were available when we arrived. There is also plenty of parking on the street very close. When you arrive, you wait outside because the main lobby is actually part of one of the rooms. There is some outdoor furniture and a bench to sit on out front. They monitor the outdoor cameras and will come out and greet you when it is time for your experience. We did "The Queen" room which has a theme of saving lost souls aboard the Queen Mary ship. It is not a scary room at all, it is just dimly lit. It has a split start with one person in the room and one outside which is always an interesting way to begin. The décor is great and after having done 30+ rooms, it is always nice when a place has puzzle types that you have never encountered before which was the case here. The room is mostly non-linear and hints are given via walkie talkie. Our game master Christina was great before, during, and after our experience. She gave us a nudge several times when we asked for help and we were able to escape with five minutes left. I commented on the booking that it was our anniversary and she even gave us a choice of a few gifts afterwards, which was very kind and thoughtful. For only two people, their rooms are on the expensive side at $59 per person. It drops to $38.50 per person with three, and $35 per person with four. We had a good time and will grab a few friends and try "The Lab" room in the future.

Note that this is…read morenot a true escape room - it is outdoors and is more of a scavenger hunt/mystery game with escape room elements. My team and I really enjoyed running around Huntington Beach! It was a really beautiful day and you can't beat being right along the water. The puzzles we thought were on the easy side, but still challenging enough where we took over an hour to complete from start to finish. Most of our team are engineers so we loved the puzzles and caught on quick. The gals who run the activity mentioned that they have other versions that are much more challenging, so we may be interested in the future. Overall, I'd recommend Downtown Detectives! The cost was affordable and we had a blast.

But, this beats them all. The creativity of the clues, outdoor setting & ability to combine all the elements of an escape room, dinner detective type show & scavenger hunt were just awesome, to say the least. My girls & her friends had a blast! We chose the easiest of the mysteries since it was their first time. But, it was still challenging. Definitely bring a water bottle, preferably w/ carrier so you're hands free & wear comfortable shoes. Nina & Jenna were so kind & accommodating, from begining to end. Planning on booking w/ some friends for my own birthday coming up!
