“Truly one of the all time greatest games! I played this many years ago and even after 160 games under my belt still think about and recommend this room to people. The pre-show set up, the set design, atmosphere, puzzles, everything works together so well. When you enter the room you'll think "where the hell are the puzzles?". The set really feels that authentic. Over the course of 45 minutes, the secrets revealed by this tiny room are top knotch and occassionally mind blowing. I still haven't experienced many of the special effects that are used here, in any other room. You must try and play with as few people as possible. Our group of four did great, but I wish it was just 2 or 3 of us.”

“The study was my first room at the basement. It was amazing in every way. Perfect amount of scary and challenging. The actor made the room so immersive and was so kind after the game. I love this location and cannot wait to do more rooms here”

“From a set design and puzzle solution stand point, this was my favorite of the rooms as The Basement. The live actor was absolutely amazing and an integral part of the room. Several of the puzzles are pretty lengthy to solve but can only be done by a few people at a time. Smaller groups are definitely preferred if you want the complete experience. But seriously, how do you make something feel like a true outdoor experience while inside a building?!”

“Dead and Breakfast is a worthwhile compilation of your experience! Note that you will start out of order but that will not detract from your experience. They give you fair warnings before you enter each room with what to expect and the production value and live actors are top notch. I find myself leaning towards the live actor in the study the most as Aiden captured both hint giving and the theme most vividly. It's scary, but not too scary. I think most will manage just fine. I will say that none of the actors lacked passion here. And neither will you.”

“One of the better escape rooms in LA! Loved the different types of puzzles-appreciate that everything isn’t lock and key and requires some attention to surroundings! Everything in the room worked beautifully and the sound effects and ambiance are top notch! Would recommend to groups of 3 or more who are looking for a challenge!”

“I have done a lot of Egyptian pharaoh curse rooms, but this is one of the better ones for sure. I love how this room flows, and it doesn’t depend on high tech, it’s all mechanical. Nothing is overly difficult, but I would still say that it’s a clever experience throughout. I really enjoyed it, and we had 4 experienced players.”

“Let me just start this review by saying that this room is ABSOLUTELY GORGEOUS. I walked in and I was easily transported to an enchanted forest. My advice is to just take your time absorbing all the details. We had plenty of time to spare in the end, and we took our time doing the puzzles, which made for an enjoyable experience. When we signed in, our game master, Beca, introduced us to this room by telling us this whimsical, fantastical story and I was so caught off guard that it raised the standard for me of how each escape room should start. Great job, Beca! As for the puzzles, I agree with most of the reviews here in their "easy" rating. It starts off linear at first, and then if you have a group of four, you can split up in the second room. I would recommend four people at most for this room. The story is simple enough. You need to find things to defeat the evil wizard, Haladrax, so look around the room. I highly recommend this room, and it is family friendly and beginner friendly as well.”

“The set was actually incredible and the flow from each room was truly exciting, however the puzzles were just “okay”. It was a bit confusing because we kept getting held up over the prop manuals and diaries thinking we needed information from them but they didn’t really help at all. Also has a very unique ending ;)”

“One of my favourite rooms!!! Just book it if you haven’t already! I’m not usually a fan of the Egypt theme but omg this room is INCREDIBLE. It NEVER ends!!! There was only one “puzzle” I really didn’t enjoy that involved digital snakes. It was truly frustrating but everything else was absolutely mind blowing.”

“This is one of my favorite rooms in recent memory. My group doesn’t often have four players to do rooms, which is recommended for this room. I would agree with the companies recommendation on the four player limit. If you enjoy Jumanji, or a video-game theme, I would highly recommend as they executed on the theme well. The puzzles started linearly and then transitioned into more of a non-linear as the game progressed. The puzzles themselves were of intermediate difficulty.”

“There's SO MUCH TO DO in this room, we were mad scrambling towards the end but made it somehow. Lots of novel experiences in this room, you're definitely going to do something you didn't think you were going to do. Ray was a great GM and certainly got us into the mood. Be prepared to move around and try to keep track of everything. If you've got a small group, be ready to hustle and even then you can probably play this room twice. Ideally suggest something like 4-6 people.”

“What a great game. We absolutely loved our Avalanche adventure! The puzzles in this room worked well and kept our group of five both busy and entertained for the duration, with a few head scratchers on the way. The room design was excellent throughout the journey and used a good range of audio and video to immerse us further into the story. Great work Maze Rooms, thanks for having us and hopefully see you again.”

“I live for games like this! So many puzzles to interact with and, definitely, something for everyone to enjoy. If you played the now defunct Oddotorium, where many of the props for this game came from, don't worry about puzzle similarity. This game had all new puzzles. I highly recommend a larger group. We had a mighty team of 2, but only got to meet 15 of the 20 ghosts because we couldn't get through it all. However, this didn't detract from the enjoyment and you get a cool ending no matter how many puzzles you work through. The other games at this location are also a ton of fun, so check them all out if you get a chance. I can't wait to see what they cook up next in San Pedro.”

The escape room scene is alive in Los Angeles. Since the first escape rooms arrived in Los Angeles in 2016, the film capital of the United States hasn’t stopped crafting these immersive puzzle experiences. In fact, Los Angeles proper is home to 49 different escape room venues. If you look around, you’ll notice several places that are expanding the definition of experiential entertainment in Hollywood. From the expansive Escape Hotel on Hollywood Boulevard to the innovative Escape Revolution on Melrose Avenue, there’s plenty to experience in the City of Angels. With over 170 escape games in the entire area, the possibilities are nearly endless — you’ll find games with themes of horror, adventure, crime, espionage, and plenty you may not expect.
Remember those point-and-click adventure games where you’re locked in a room and have to solve puzzles to find the key and escape? Those online games were the original inspiration for the live escape rooms you’ll find all across the world today. An escape room is an immersive experience where you (and your team of 2 or more people) are locked in a room with a series of puzzles for 60 minutes. To escape and win the game, you have to look for clues, solve the puzzles, and find the key. While most escape rooms only give you 60 minutes to complete the challenge, others may have shorter or longer time limits. Many venues are private rooms where you and your team are the only players. However, some places may pair you with other groups who booked a slot at the same time. And don’t worry about getting stuck, asking for hints on a difficult puzzle is totally normal. While the original escape room (created by SCRAP in 2007) had a fairly simple aesthetic, today’s escape games often take you into a different world. Artistic set designs, secret doors, and unique interactive elements are all part of the fun. It’s like an adventure game that you can interact with in real life. But if you’re hoping to preview any rooms before you book a game somewhere, detailed images and videos can be hard to find. To keep the puzzles a secret and preserve the experience of seeing the room for the first time, most venues only offer a few photos or a short trailer about the room’s theme or narrative. The only way to know what it’s like is to go and try it for yourself!
There are plenty of awesome escape rooms to choose from in Los Angeles. The goal of Morty is to make escape rooms more accessible for everyone to find and play. With Morty, you can: - Browse escape rooms anywhere in the country - Read reviews and ratings from other community members - Book a room together with your friends Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned escape room enthusiast, our aim is to help you play more escape rooms and visit more immersive attractions.
Most escape room venues don’t accept walk-ins, and time slots for popular games may fill up fast. Besides that, not every escape room is the same — some have varying difficulties, and you don’t want to get stuck playing a room that’s beyond your experience level. That’s why the best way to book an escape room in Los Angeles is through the Morty app. You can get updates on new games, read reviews, compare details (including difficulty, theme, runtime) and plan an outing with friends, all on the same platform. You can even coordinate games with your friends collaboratively. Download the Morty app and book your adventure today!
