A good sized team is a must. It was a really great local choice for a fun night with our teens!

We did the Prison Break escape room at Escape Modesto and it was one of the best family activities…read morewe've done in a long time! From the moment we walked in, the staff was welcoming and hyped us up for the challenge. The room itself was cleverly designed, with puzzles that made us think, work together, and argue (lovingly) about whose fault it was when we got stuck. The clues were challenging but fair, and the props and environment made us feel like we were in an actual prison trying to break out. We loved the variety of puzzles, and the staff gave just enough hints to keep us moving without spoiling the fun. We didn't escape in time, but we had so many laughs along the way that it didn't even matter. Everyone from the adults to the kids had a role in solving something, and it was awesome to see everyone working together. If you're looking for a fun, interactive, and memorable way to spend time with family or friends, book the Prison Break room at Escape Modesto. We'll definitely be back to try another room soon, this place is a gem!

There were many locks distributed throughout the room and it felt quite redundant, there were many combos and numbers that could have been a combo and constantly having to do all the combos in each lock was quite mentally taxing and not as enjoyable. The employee working the front desk was quite sweet and helpful. Great service, but personally would skip on the escape room here.

We were looking to do an escape room for the kids and we found availability this Sunday and booked…read moreour reservations!! Staff was very friendly and friendly and receptive. Just a minus star on the reservations - we were expecting to have the room to be just our family but we received a text before our time so indicating that another party was joining us. I guess my feel is that if it says 5 spots free - it meant that we had the room to ourselves but we were grouped with another family (mom and two young kids). No issues with the other family joining in the experience but you never know who you would be paired up!! We did the cosmic event. The room was clean and functional. It was hard to hear Hermes in the space ship but outside of it. We had a wonderful time and escaped!!

Definitely surpassed my expectations. The lady who runs this came up with everything herself, and a…read morelot of it is SO GENIUS. I got a groupon for Christmas and went with three of my friends - you book ahead of time online, and we got to do it with just our group and no strangers. The group before us was running a little late, so Brenda actually called me to let me know ahead of time so we could come in a bit later (which I really appreciated). The classroom theme of the room was fantastic. My friends and I are grad students and we found it challenging, but totally doable. It was pretty exhilarating and you definitely have to think outside of the box. You're allowed to ask her for help if your group gets stuck (she gives you 5 clues max). We solved it with a minute 30 to spare, and it was literally the greatest feeling in the world. Definitely worth the money for a group of 4-7 of your friends. Can't wait for her to make more!

It was unique in you really had to think outside your zone to understand how to the answers to some of the puzzles and listen to other people to figure it out together. You do get to ask a staff member for help if you get stuck on something too long, which is very helpful. This one was challenging but great fun with a team to figure it all out and get out before the hour is up! Definitely do this again in the future!

If you've ever wondered what it's like to be trapped in a mysterious factory with only your wits,…read moreteamwork, and navigating through the dark, Quantum Escapes in Modesto is where you need to be. We took on The Factory room, which threw us into an industrial puzzle-filled adventure that had just the right mix of brain-twisting riddles, tactile challenges, and "Aha!" moments. With a few minutes to spare (and a lot of dramatic yelling, teamwork, and maybe one too many bumps in the dark), we managed to escape! The props and setup were immersive without being overcomplicated, it really felt like we were in an abandoned, mystery-filled plant. The puzzles were clever and layered. Nothing felt too easy, but we never felt completely stuck. A perfect balance! The decor in the hallway is a time-warp in itself, clocks galore, moody lighting, and vibes straight out of a time travel noir movie. The staff was top-notch. Super friendly, helpful with hints (when we begged), and fully in on the fun. Bonus points for the hilarious costumes in the photo room, nothing brings a group together like looking absolutely ridiculous in chainmail and a Viking crown. Pro tip: Dress comfortably, bring a few puzzle-minded friends, and prepare to laugh, think, and possibly argue over what the Roman numeral VII really means under pressure. We'll definitely be back to try their other rooms. Quantum Escapes is a gem in Modesto! Fun, affordable, and a great way to spend an hour unlocking your inner Sherlock. Good Luck!

Sorry, I can't remember anyone else's names. Puzzles are both clear and challenging at times, the narrative is very interesting and provokes discussion both during and after, and the prospect of decisions affecting later Chapters is very interesting. One of the most engaging and interesting Escape Rooms I've ever done. Although you might find cheaper Escape Rooms out there, Off the Couch Games offers a more unique experience that I think definitely gives you plenty of entertainment for your dollar. I eagerly await Chapters 4 and on. Only room for improvement I can really say is signage. If you miss the banner and front door on your way into the parking lot, you may get confused, especially at night.

We came to Off The Couch with 6 people to try Occam's Apartment. I've only done a few escape rooms,…read moreso I wasn't sure what to expect. The staff does a really good job introducing you to the game, providing context, and giving an overview of the rules. Additionally, they mentioned that we'd receive a discount off our total based on how quickly we finished, which was extra encouragement for us to get through the game. You immediately get immersed into the game before even walking into the actual room and once you're in Occam's Apartment, it feels even more real. The room itself is well decorated, with nice details scattered around the apartment. I loved every minute of the escape room experience and felt challenged throughout the time we were there. We did ask for hints throughout our time there and the answers were often given through directional questions. What I liked most about the Off the Couch set up is that the escape rooms are all a continuation of a storyline, so it makes you feel invested in the experience. I'm looking forward to the next escape room!
