We tackled 3 rooms today and had a great experience. Livia and Jack were out GMs and kept us on the path to success. Mona Lisa - fantastic room, great layout and unique puzzles along with a few surprises. Scooby-Doo - very cool room, lots of details and so much to do but we were engaged and rolling the whole time, we got confused at one point and our GM didnt see we were doing the puzzle right just missed a step so we got a redundant clue but we figured it out. Orient Express - loved it, unique layout and very few locks definitely something new to play around with. One of the more unique rooms we've done. We had a blast and are already discussing our next visit to tackle more of their rooms. read more

Escapology - Escape Games Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Cleanliness: Always super clean when I have come here, I have been here 3 times. Staff: Super friendly, efficient, and they walk you through everything thoroughly. Options: They have several rooms to select from, depending on what type of mystery solving you're trying to do, murder mystery, scooby doo, batman, and etc. Cost: This is where I made it a 4 out of 5, $50 per person is pretty steep. They do offer 50% off for your next visit, but I only received that offer as a group, when I went here for a date and it was only 2 of us, we were not offered the same promotion of booking within the next 7 days to receive 50% off discount. Recommend: Absolutely, especially at least once either with friends or on a date night. read more

We escaped! We went here for my son's birthday and there were five of us. This was my and my wife's first escape room and the three young adults have been to escape rooms before. We all thought escapology was amazing in every way. We choose a medium difficulty room, mansion murder, and we needed hints, which were very appropriate. There was a game master watching and giving us hints. The attendants were all friendly and we felt welcome and comfortable the entire time. We used a Groupon and it saved us a bunch of money. When we left they offered us a discount for our return visit. We would come back for sure. read more

Escapology - We escaped - Escape Games Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Did the scooby doo room and the star trek room today. Both were exceptionally branded and very well made. The Star Trek one had different mechanics than the escape rooms I'm used to, which made it a different kind of fun. Our handler Navah was incredibly personable, helpful, and fun. read more

Came by for a bday party. Our prior experience was awesome. This last time was a bit different. The employee assisting for the escape room group was great. There was a reserved room for the birthday party and unfortunately, the staff that was around was rude. As a party guest I felt like our party did something wrong lol. Turns out the staff was rushing the party. Unlike other businesses, it feels like parties were booked back to back without a buffer. One of the employees was constantly reminding the host that the party was ending. Not a good sign for a business that caters to groups lol. I would like to think this was a one off. read more

Fun place for the family and good dynamics to share. There was nine of us and we all had a great time together, bonding and working together as a team! Good for the brain and even our little six year old contributed to solving the mystery. It's something different to do and it was worthwhile. This venue had good mysteries and made us all put our heads together to solve them!! The staff were amazing as well! read more

We have never done an escape room before and are probably not the target audience but decided to try something new while my friend was in town celebrating a birthday! We all had fun even though we didn't solve the puzzle and were out of our element. Had we had a little more time I think we could have finished. I wish there was a way maybe they could offer a package where you can buy extra time if it's your first time - it took us a bit to figure out how this all worked. We were given a lot of hints which did help . It takes a little bit for a newbie to realize how this all works There were only three of us so I think that was maybe a hindrance as well Also looking back at one point when we opened something to receive clues - there was one missing that we never found so I'm not sure if there was another item to discover and open or whether it just went missing I also wish the team photo was themed around which escape you did - maybe they can use a tablet and a template then email you the photo. An employee was nice enough on her way in to take a photo of us with the scooby doo poster on the background I also see in the yelp photo people were given goofy signs to hold up - our photo was just us with the escapology background We would try one again but have more people and maybe look for a coupon. We were offered a good discount If we booked again right then read more

Escapology - Cool decor - Escape Games Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I have only tried one escape room before and it was a whole different vibe then the room we chose this time. We tried out the Murder on the Orient Express and it was hard to start off at first, even with 5 of us. The youngest of us being my 10 year old daughter, our minds all went different directions when the clock started ticking, but with a hint (or two- maybe 3) we figured it out with 7 minutes to spare! One of the things I'd say was a tad frustrating was that the hints given were often things we already had done, or understood and then they'd kind of skip forward a bit to the next one when we said "did that" - so I don't know if it's an automated list of hints they have to go through or if the game master can actually intervene with specifics and is watching but it didn't seem like they had known where we were at right away. My daughter was actually bummed when it was over so we definitely will have to try out another room one of these days! read more

Went here twice for the two kids mode rooms, Murder Mansion (maybe not the best name for kids mode) and also Scooby Doo. Wish they would have more of kids mode, which is super hard even for an adult. I'm gonna give extra props for their policy of rescheduling for credit because with a sick kid, I swear I had to reschedule four times and everyone was so nice about it when calling. I think it's fantastic that you only need to pay for four people and you get the room to yourself! read more

This was an amazing experience. TJ was a great help in walking us through our first escapology room. Our team made it and even got celebratory goodies. Totally worth the trip! read more

My son has been asking to do an escape room for awhile now, but I thought he might be a bit too young (7). I spoke to the employee here and asked if we did the 'kids mode' for the Scooby Doo room, if he would be able to get through it. They mentioned that none of their rooms are really made for people younger than 10, but since there were unlimited hints, we could at least try. So try we did. I can completely understand why they said 10+. My son really struggled. And I had a hard time trying to basically solve the puzzles on my own. We used plenty of hints. But you know what? My son still had an absolute blast and looks forward to going to another one. I will say, however, there was one puzzle that we solved (the puzzle master confirmed after we were out) but the trigger didn't fire off & a drawer didn't open up. That could've helped us needing to rely on another hint to solve one of the puzzles. That was a disappointment. I've done plenty of escape rooms and I gotta say I really enjoyed the production value of Escapology. The staff here was also incredibly friendly and helpful. I definitely want to come back and try some of their other rooms (the Batman one calls my name every time I walk by). read more

Absolutely love Escapology! My friends and I have completed all the rooms at this location and we were always treated with kindness at every booking. Games are fun and staff always matched our energy and excitement, while also being gracious when one of our party members was running late or if we needed an extra couple of minutes in the room. Super grateful to Escapology Northridge for making so many of our celebrations and moments special. Happy to be a puzzle master and looking forward to any new rooms being added here. read more

It was our first time doing escape room, and this definitely was a great experience for my family as our first time. My son of 5yrs did enjoy it same as my 8yrs daughter. They both were engaging and investing to help us figure it out. It's definitely a great activity for a family or friend's fun time. read more

Rya and jack very fun escape room we did the Kona Lisa one and it was veryyyyyyyyyyyyyy fun

The place I work at booked this place one day for some team-building shenanigans. First thing I noticed about this venue was their collection of wall-mounted clocks all set to different times along with old-fashioned furniture. When everyone was divvied up, there were eight groups of around 4-6 people. Eight is great, cause this place offers exactly that, an impressive amount of escape rooms all running at once. Our team was assigned the "Batman: The Dark Knight Challenge", so off we went. Reading some of the other reviews for this particular room, seems there were frustrations with technical difficulties. Fortunately, we had no issues completing all the puzzles, even ending up with about 15 minutes to spare from two hints used. Visually, the design of the environments was simple and didn't offer that many surprises, though it was nice to see familiar characters, and the guy voicing Batman was decent, if not "too" clear. There were times we kept fiddling around with some prop, until the clue master told us it was just for looks. Actually, the clue master was very friendly and cheered us on. Having prior knowledge of Batman wasn't necessary, though I'm told the Scooby Doo one wasn't quite the same. Other groups enjoyed themselves and successfully completed their tasks, except one who didn't finish. I know the feeling, having failed a number of escape rooms in the past. We all took photos with the fun speech bubbles, mine being the "Moral Support" one. Overall, a fun meeting was had. read more

Great escape room! Jack & Theo were very helpful as host & game master. We tried the Pirate room which was clean, smelled nice, and organized with no missing clues. I went with a group of 7 and we fit comfortably. Easy to ask for clues when we needed, and we got out w 3 minutes to spare! Very fun, we'll return to try another room. read more

Our Girl Scout troop visited Escapology Escape Rooms on a Sunday afternoon. The setting of the establishment is very mysterious with a huge curtain and antique carpets. The welcome room is basically like the game Clue, with brown leather couches and wooden dark brown tables. It gave you the feeling of entering Sherlock Holmes office. Our host was very nice and welcoming. It was our first time here and the troop chose to the Mansion Murder escape room. The girls enjoyed the details and clues put together to escape the room. They actually solved it and would have escaped the room if only the key was there. Whoever set up the room for the girls forgot to place the key in the stool therefore they didn't get to escape the room but they had 15 minutes left. We are coming back in April for a birthday party. Hopefully it will be a better experience. read more

Escapology - Our Girl Scout troop completed the escape room called Mansion Murder while still having several minutes left on the clock. - Escape Games Near Me - Los Angeles, California

We did the Murder Mansion room. We've done a few escape rooms before so we're still relatively beginners, but we have a grasp on escape room flow and mechanics. While we had fun, we experienced some negative things: 1. The clues did not easily flow from one to another, and we felt like there wasn't enough information for us to understand how to complete quite a few of the puzzles. 2. We unlocked a drawer but it was stuck and wouldn't open. We asked for a hint because we thought we were missing something. Just for curiosity, we used extra force to open it afterwards and it finally opened. We told the Gamemaster about it, and they let their coworker know, but more attention should be put into resetting the room because we wasted time trying to understand if we were supposed to force it open or not. 3. When we asked for a hint because we didn't understand why the drawer wasn't opening, the Gamemaster gave us a hint for opening the drawer lock, which we already did, so they clearly weren't paying attention. 4. The hints weren't really hints sometimes, they just gave us the answer. 5. There wasn't much really happening in the room for it being $50/person. The theming wasn't that great, the puzzles weren't exciting, and there weren't great effects. read more

Great time for the 11yr olds. Mona Lisa with all the lasers was beyond cool! Will be back

We had the BEST time at Escapology. We came in two groups with a total of 13. We had about 10 kids and Shaina and Don took really good care of us with grace especially under the stress of so many kids. We can't wait to come back and finish all of the rooms here and maybe even the other locations if we can! I saw their ad on IG and I don't regret going! As an escape room enthusiast, their rooms are fairly roomy, solid props (nothing broke & everything was well built), and the escape room felt overall luxurious in comparison to a lot of other places. read more

"Tyler, Angel, Ashley, and Jack made our visit a blast--friendly, fun, and unforgettable

All of my son's friends had fun celebrating his 15th birthday. It was their first time trying an escape room. But to make that day more cheerful, it needed Birthday Decorations and the Room Had None. I was very disappointed with that, because this place is already expensive to have a party at. And on the website it said some decorations, none of that was placed. And since I was expecting those few decorations, I didn't took any birthday decor. For what costumers are paying to have a party there, Escapology should be proving party decorations. read more

We did the Orient Express. It was one of the better escape rooms we've done. The props very good and not cheap, the clues were logical and the progression through the rooms flowed well. We needed two clues but escaped in 45 minutes, even though it's one of the most challenging of the rooms. My kids, especially my 11-year-old, breeze through them as if they've done them before. I ride coattails. read more

Escapology - Difficulty chart! - Escape Games Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Went to the new Universal City Walk location for my 23rd bday and I had such a great time! We were a group of 4 and we did the Mona Lisa room. It was a ton of fun with the right amount of challenge and I appreciated the fact that we could request unlimited amount of hints in case we got stuck. We were able to finish with about 15 minutes to spare which is great but at the same time it does suck that we spent less than an hour in the room I wish it was longer especially because of the price. Regardless I really want to try the horror themed rooms next! read more

We had our 10 year old son's birthday here and it was an amazing experience for everyone. Details below: Communication Before scheduling the event, we communicated with the event coordinator by phone and email. She was very helpful, responsive, accurate, and friendly. Communication was seamless. The Facility Arriving at the facility, we were very pleasantly surprised at the preparation. The birthday room was beautiful, with a leather couch for the parents. The table was already set with everything that we needed. Plates, Napkins, cups, utensils etc... Everything was clean and tidy. The Staff The staff was very friendly, and helpful. There was no confusion and everything went as planned. They accommodated final minor requests which was very helpful. The Experience The kids had an amazing time in the Mona Lisa escape room. They were all engaged, and were able to escape in the nick of time. They all raved about it and claimed that it was one of their favorite birthday experiences. The clues and theme was fine for the kids. The Party Room after the Escape Room After we finished the Escape Room, we did the birthday celebration, with Pizza, soft drinks, and cake in the party room, and everything went smoothly. The kids liked it so much that several of the parents will be coming back again for their children's upcoming birthdays. Thank you for the memorable experience. We will be back. read more

It was my first time here, and I can't believe I never knew this place. A lot of escape rooms are in Los Angeles and deep in Los Angeles but this was right by my place. I was my family for my brother's birthday, and we escaped the most challenging escape room with five minutes of sphere. We didn't hear any records, but I would love to come back and get a record. The escape rooms are very reasonable and not impossible like other places. I love how clean this places and when you walk in you even feel like you're in an escape room. There is a long hallway, very clean, bathrooms, and activities that you can play with upfront. Like a nice spy, book and tic-tac-toe. It was so much fun, and I would love to host a party here as a host parties too. We did the Oriental express escape room. Again, it is the most challenging.but it was really fun. read more
