    We returned to Chronos Escape Room for our third visit, this time bringing a few friends along to…read moretry their Awakened 2.0 room. This is an amazing room and definitely in my top three out of the 50+ rooms we have done. It is a large overall space and has a total of seven different sub-rooms. It is dimly lit and you really feel like you are in an old abandoned high school. There are several jump scares, but I wouldn't say it is scary, just creepy. There is a mix of linear and non-linear puzzles, and a lot of back and forth between rooms. There is a good variety of locks, mechanical puzzles, and pattern/problem solving. There are quite a few puzzles, and the room kept all four of us very busy. There are a few spots where crawling is required, and the floor is pretty hard and not cushioned or carpeted. This room was definitely one of the hardest we have done, but it was so fun the whole time. We escaped with only one minute left. This is one of their three hardest rooms and is ranked 8/10 difficulty which I would agree with. Melissa was our game master and she was very helpful over the walkie talkie when we requested a hint. They have a total of ten different rooms now, and this was our third completed. We will definitely be back to try more.

    Jurassic Island? More like 'English Exam Island.' This was hands down the worst-designed escape…read moreroom I have ever experienced. It's an absolute joke. The designers clearly have no clue what 'immersion' means. In a real dinosaur emergency, would you sit down to solve a crossword puzzle or do abstract math problems? It's absurd, unrealistic, and incredibly lazy. They spent money on animatronics but zero effort on actual logic. If you enjoy paying $100+ to do tedious reading comprehension and pointless arithmetic in a dark room, by all means, go. But if you are a parent looking to have fun with your kids--STAY AWAY. My 11-year-old was bored and frustrated. This isn't a game; it's a chore. Chronos should be embarrassed to call this an 'adventure.' It's a scam for anyone who expects a coherent story or realistic survival puzzles. Total waste of time and money.

    Not only is second Street art walk about visual art, it is also about performance art! There were…read moreat least four live musical bands last night as well as a DJ at Shaun Diamond Plaza for your auditory enjoyment. If you have tried to come to the art walk and not seen much art, you need to explore a little bit harder. Several of the galleries are actually underground and you have to enter buildings to gain access. Ask any shop owner about where the galleries are, and they are happily to direct you. If you're looking for family, friendly options, usually the area by Shaun Diamond Plaza is nice to hang around as you eat food from the vendors and food trucks that come out each month. There's also Cafe con Libros, a local bookstore with lots of children's books and friendly staff. The best time to come with family is the second Saturday closest to Dia de Los muertes (Nov 1) were you are likely to be able to see live Ballet Folklorico on the east side of Gary on 2nd Street. Kids can also come dressed up if it's before Halloween and often shop owners will be giving out candy. Sometime in the fall, I believe there is a chalk art contest, which is always fun to participate in or observe. The most festive time of year is of course second Saturday before Christmas. There is an ice rink in Shaun Diamond Plaza. it's also a wonderful time to support local entrepreneurs and artists who are selling everything from live plants to clothing to jewelry to other fun unique gifts for the holidays. My favorite time to come out to second Street art walk? Every Month that I'm free that evening!! Last night we brought our daughter who is home from college and her college friend. We had a great time! We even had a caricature artist across from Shaun diamond Plaza for people who want to have a unique piece of art to memorialize the event!!

    Pomona Art Walk *February 14th, 2026…read more*11am- Saturday *4 Stars Environment: *Street Parking *Several Small Businesses *Up and Coming Area Food/Drink: *Food Vendors Stopped by Pomona Art Walk after seeing online that they were hosting a Lunar New Year celebration. I was pleasantly surprised by the turnout. There was a solid crowd for such a small area. The festival highlighted various cultural traditions, including lion dancing, traditional attire, and festive foods, which made the event feel lively and engaging. There were also several small vendors set up around the main event selling trinkets, artisan-made cups, handmade glassware, woodwork, and other unique items. Plenty of food vendors were present as well, though I'm not sure if that's typical for the regular art walk or specific to the holiday celebration. My group wasn't able to stay for the later evening portion of the event, but it's definitely something we'd consider checking out in the future.

    So COOL! I hardly ever review anything but RETRO ROOMS definitely deserves it! Stepping into this…read moreplace is like walking into a time capsule of pure nostalgia! It's an incredible fusion of childhood and adolescent memories, featuring classic video games, iconic movies, retro music, and amazing art--all under one roof. I booked Retro Rooms a few times already but most recently for a Halloween party, along with my membership, and it was an absolute hit! Everyone had a blast, and it truly felt like stepping back in time to relive the best moments of growing up. This membership has been one of the best investments for me and my husband--it's the ultimate getaway from the chaos of everyday life (and the kids). We get to embrace our inner big kids in a more private setting. Unlike places like Dave & Buster's, where everything feels crowded and chaotic, HERE you can enjoy all the fun without kids bumping into you or hogging the games. The option to book the space for private events is such a game-changer! We had such a great time that I'm already planning to book another visit next week. If you're looking for an unforgettable retro gaming experience, surrounded by ART this is the place to be. I Highly recommend! I was even able to purchase some art pieces that I plan to gift for Christmas! Talk about a WIN WIN!

Only thing I didn't know is that you have to register for a time slot to enter. They have some really rare stuff and everything works which is a big plus. I would definitely have my 80s-90s throwback party here.
