Located in the heart of Old town pasadena, this is a must try with your friends! If you are attending this during the summer, bring a neck fan! It does get really warm inside. If you run hot, I suggest to bring a fan. If youre claustrophobic, dont have 8 people in your party. I wish there was a discount code for each completed chapter to move on and complete all 4 chapters!

I love that they have continued chapters to the story for a returned experience. I appreciated the variety of locks and codes throughout the rooms and attention to detail. It felt like I walked myself into a fallout meets resident evil vibe. We'll be returning for sure. For parking, their site gives primo instructions and we ended up parking by the Scientology building with excellent affordable rates for the time needed to experience the escape room. Not a good place for those physically impaired.

We really loved our experience today at Escape Duck Escape Room! My husband and I wanted to find a…read morefun way to celebrate our 10 months of marriage and we stumbled across this place. We decided to go as walk-ins and the employee (or owner I'm not sure) told us he could take walk-ins but the only room available at that moment was the horror one... this was GREAT for us as we're huge horror fans! We did the Corpse Whisperer room which can contain 2-10 players. It was really fun! My husband and I oddly have a harder time when things are super linear (we're both neurodivergent so maybe that's why). But the room IS very linear and you don't have to overthink as much as we did! That being said, we still made it out with 5 minutes to spare! Without spoiling the room, there's some really fun moments!! If you're into horror, you'll love it. If you're not into horror, I think you'll still love it either way! This escape room does something I've never seen before at that's finding "coins." In each room they have coins hidden around the rooms and you can find them and at the end, the game master will collect them and you have a chance to spin a wheel to win a prize! I thought that was a cute touch! The employee/owner was really kind and helpful. You could tell he loves his job and loves escape rooms! Thank you for such great service and helping make our day so fun!

We used Surreal Escape Games for my kids' 5th Grade Elementary promotion day at school and they…read morewere an absolute hit! The event had Surreal Escape Games, video game trucks, PhotoBooths, scavenger hunts, etc. Hands down the most popular activity was the escape room. The kids kept going back to the room again and again - I didn't realize how much fun they would have trying different ways to solve the room! I helped coordinate logistics with our PTA and Mike - the entire process was incredibly smooth and easy. Coordinating with Mike was awesome, fast, prompt, attentive. Had an answer for any and every question, got all the paperwork together in a timely matter. They set everything up, have their own cast of fun and entertaining actors. We just provided a space for them to host. Can't recommend this company highly enough if you're looking for a unique experience that will come to you!

The tour had some creepy atmosphere but overall, it felt a little flat. Didn't really learn anything new or interesting. It wasn't bad, but it didn't really live up to the intrigue or tone of the show. I couldn't help but wonder if the electrical company that bought out the mortuary is getting a cut of the profits.

We…read moredecided to try out an escape room with the whole family, including my in-laws and daughters (aged 8 and 10), with this being the first escape room my daughters have ever done. Because this was their first escape room we did the most family friendly room, the Western-themed room. And it was perfect for everyone....challenging enough fro adults, but not so challenging that the kids couldn't be involved. In fact, each of the six of us found multiple clues throughout the adventure. We did end up getting two clues to help us out, but it didn't ruin the experience and definitely encouraged our daughters to keep going. And we did eventually escape!! This was perfect way to pass some time on a hot summer day in a fun and though provoking way. It also helped out that the staff was wonderful and really got us amped up for the escape. We can't go back and try the two additional themed escape rooms they have there!!

We had cancellations and rescheduling a lot so we lost people in the process. I wish they had online booking and rebooking and more availability. I had to call the owner Anna, but she was very nice and got it arranged and personally hosted us. We tried to plan a visit around the holidays and availability was spotty and i wasn't getting called back. I feel like the holidays should be more staffed because of other people being on holiday. Still a fun time and I'd definitely come back with a bigger group and maybe a different room. It was so clever setup

That entrance too is super cool and really unique. The parking lot in front is very small so some of our group had to park at the streets. It can be hard to spot but luckily I had a couple of friends that have gone to one of the escape rooms here before. I feel like the employees inside are very go-go-go! So make sure you arrive for your appointment on time. They direct you to the bathroom inside too and the theming of it all is amazing. Not what you would expect from the outside. We were able to do the Courtyard room and it was like we were in a set. I was very amazed by the detail and the props, and of course so proud of the group I was with because we were able to pass the room (despite a 20% success rate!). The story threw me off at first but after researching on the website after the escape room, I understand now that we did the last chapter of the journey. LOL oops! Nontheless we all had so much fun and you are really immersed and sucked into the story. I think that I would love to come here again but there is a pretty big price point that you have to be okay spending (weekdays it was like 43-46$. I really appreciate the high quality camera they use and a unique background for a nice group photo to capture the memories. Would be cool to have props photo booth style but it's okay, definitely a more formal and really detailed escape room. Highly recommend!! PS Lockers for phones and stuff to place are in the lobby but it's secured with a key that one of the group members keep.

Getting inside the building was interesting; turns out, there is a puzzle to solve! Once inside, we sat down, waited for the rest of our friends then signed the waiver. Thankfully, they did have a bathroom we could use ahead of time. Once we got our initial instructions from the staff member, we went into a room and received more instructions on a screen. The basement is a very immersive room, the cast member who was part of it did an amazing job! I'm so sad I can't remember her name, she truly was a delight! She even reassured me at the beginning when I was freaking out. We managed to escape with about 6 minutes left, I wish I had taken exact note of how much time. We took a celebratory picture and then I got some merch, a t shirt saying I escape the basement and one of the enamel pins. Me and my friends came to celebrate a birthday and I think we will be back in November for another friend's birthday to do the next room! I'm gonna buy a new enamel pin each time we win, I think. Definitely looking forward to coming back! Couple tips: come in one car, the lot is very small and there was only one spot left when we got there and our friends had to park farther away. For the celebratory picture, make sure to look at the right spot and fix your hair beforehand lol. Lastly, bring cash to tip the staff members! They deserve it for being so awesome! Oh, and be kind to them, I shouldn't have to say this, but I will. They are fellow humans playing characters.
