Daniel from the escape room @ the block, thank you for being our operator and seeing my schizophrenic butt dance on the camera monitors to Micheal Jackson and ur vibing/ jamming alongside me and my friend. Also thank you for giving us free hints when we really needed them. We will be requesting you next time. I would rate my experience a 100/5 but I guess 5/5 is fine. I request that you get a raise- scratch that- become manager ASAP!!! sincerely the girl in striped hair at "the depths" escape room read more

if you cant tell, we're wearing the same exact clothes in these two photos...meaning we did two in one day! thats how good escape games was. BIG shoutout to will for being such an awesome game master and for being such a genuine, kind soul. lily and leslie were super sweet as well and made our experience so enjoyable. alright, lets start with timeliner. the concept of time traveling and all the small mechanisms was so cool. fun fact, timeliner is the test room for the tech in cosmic crisis! my friends and i have done a good amount of escape rooms 20+ and timeliner is one we got through pretty quick. its a good room if you want to be wowed by the small details. heist is a more hands-on room compared to the timeliner. this room is one where you yourself have to solve the puzzles rather than the technology solving it for you. it catches you off guard and surprises you with all its mechanisms. highly recommend both rooms to anyone looking for a chill escape room experience. read more

my friends and i absolutely loved this escape room!! we chose the cosmic crisis room, and felt like it was pretty doable for four people. it was super fun and sufficiently challenging, as we finished with only four minutes to spare. there was a good variety of types of puzzles within the game, each testing our different skillsets, making it easy for all of us to contribute in our own way. all of the staff were also super friendly and enthusiastic, shout out dante who was working the front desk during our visit! our group did purchase tickets through groupon, which cut down the pricing quite a bit, so look into that if you're planning to visit :) would highly recommend making a reservation a day or two in advance just to ensure you're able to get the time and room you prefer! read more

My boyfriend and I LOVE to do escape games together for the thrill and for sometimes a much-needed communication exercise LOL. Every time we come to the Escape Game and try a new room, we are blown away by the tech they use. It's not-your-average mom & pop escape room, and for that reason we LOVE it. It operates with a first-come reservation basis, but each room has a max of 8-12 players. This means that you can bring your whole group in, and there's a chance you might have some strangers joining you as well if there's still space. We tend to wait last minute and book the rooms with no reservations yet so we can try to do them on our own. This time, our game keepers Ally and Marcy were so sweet and helpful. Can't recommend her enough! We will keep coming back! read more

The Escape Game - The Depths - Escape Games Near Me - Orange, California

Super fun for everyone in my group! We went to celebrate a birthday and the staff gave her a singed card and a cute little show on the tvs in the wait room. We solved 'The heist' with 33 seconds left with some of help from our guide Scarlet. The guides do see and hear you in when your in the room, for safety reason, and they can type responses onto the tv. (They gave us a heart when we did one in front of the camera) over all a great experience that we will be coming back too, if not for the rooms then for the amazing staff. read more

Come check out The Escape Game! We have a nifty escape room group that have somehow become addicted to escape rooms in the last year. We decided to check this one out. We opted to try out The Depths. It was a submarine theme. We really loved this room. It is probably our second favorite of the eight that we have tried so far. It was very intricate, and had three rooms within it to solve puzzles in, which is always much better than being wedged in one room the entire time. It was a bit of a challenge, but we managed to escape with one minute remaining! I really liked that we were allowed to take pictures in this room for better memories. We do want to try out the Recess room but it seems we need a bigger team for that one. My only complaint is that you can't keep the room as private if you don't buy all the slots. At any given time, you could end up with strangers reserving the extra slots and joining you. Awkward. Every other business we have tried locks up that slot once we book some. Luckily, no strangers joined us on this particular adventure. I do highly recommend checking this place out regardless. The staff is very nice and the room we did was very well laid out and detailed. read more

The Escape Game - Last room in Prison Break - Escape Games Near Me - Orange, California

As an avid escape room adventurer, I would recommend the escape games - especially for larger groups and/or if you want to meet new people. These are public escape room games meaning you and anyone out there can sign up for the SAME room for the SAME time/date. Most rooms here fit up to 8 people which would be perfect if you had a large friend group. BUT if you only had 2-4 people and sign up ahead of time, be prepared to enter the room with new faces. Games start pretty on time, so make sure to be there with waivers signed! Also, they occasionally offer 20% off your next game once you escape the first! These games lean more on the tech side utilizing digital screens, electronic doors/buttons, lights, and puzzles - all of which I love! It adds more flavor to the game, while still providing the traditional puzzles feel with some rooms having locks, ropes, and mind-tingling puzzles. I would venture to say I like having more physical handheld clues like papers or props for decoding, but this place does get the job done. Some of the puzzles even require you to work simultaneously with your escape room team which creates more thrill! I have had friends that have gone here to the same rooms I have done where the rooms are slightly changed depending on the amount of people in the room or if the tech is broken - so just be aware that your experience could be different than others. For the price of about $42 a person you can't go wrong since there are multiple options that vary in difficulty from 3/10 to 9/10. Overall would recommend especially for a quick fun nigh read more

Me and my boyfriend dod four escape rooms in one day, on our third escape room after we escaped, our game guide, Ruby, she gave us gift cards for us both to do another room later that night, thank you ruby, this is now a core memory that i have lol, but seriously the game guides are all really nice, they are all helpful, and they are also funny, i had an amazing time with my boyfriend, and it is all thanks to the game guides. read more

The experience was a better escape room experience with very professional, well built rooms, and a great staff to help guide us / answer any questions we had. Our group was paired with another group to fulfill the capacity and we were okay with that and I'm glad we did. The room itself was challenging with multiple step puzzles, multiple rooms, and plenty of coordination needed / puzzles that link to each other that would have been more difficult with less people. I am excited to come back and try their other rooms for sure. read more

I only knocked this down because no where on the site does it say it's a SHARED experience. My core group of 4 have done close to 20 escape rooms and we like to complete private experiences. That said, we were paired with 4 strangers but still managed to have a good time because the group we were paired with ended up being cool (thank goodness). The host did see our discomfort and offered to rebook us if we didn't enjoy ourselves. Since we still had a good time, we left that offer on the table. The Timeliner room was fun. A bit cramped for 8 people, especially with half of them being strangers. The puzzles were good, some were more challenging, which was appreciated. We did complete it in time but used a few hints (no penalty to use but we try to not use them). Give it a try, but know it's shared you may be able to request a private experience, but haven't tried yet. read more

Came and booked for 10! They were nice enough to book us the prison break as it is for 8 as I believe. We had a last minute unexpected change and Ophelia was so nice to help me rebook and do changes we needed for our reservation. We weren't able to get original booking room as it was taken but compromised to the another room!! Anyways we did end up doing The Depths. I think since most of us was our first time it was a good room for our first time!! Sind with was part of team bonding we did work as a group and did the room with less than an hour!!! It was fun, interactive, and again good for teamwork!!! Would def recommend!! read more

The best!! I've done a number of escape rooms but there's no comparison. The Escape Game is #1. The rooms are very immersive. Lots of themes to choose from, and the storylines make you feel like you're really completing a mission. Great puzzles with cool technology and special effects. Also, awesome staff. Can't wait to try another room. Highly recommend!!! read more

Went through today, played cosmic crisis and it was so much fun! Ben was an amazing help! We will definitely be back!

It was such a wonderful experience! The puzzles and technology were so intuitive and creative. I also feel like they were all varied yet seamlessly connected to each other. The escape room itself was so well made and accessible. Also, one thing I like that The Escape Game does is that they have built in coat hangers and storage in the room itself! After the game, they offer a discount to do another game or a gift card to use for a future visit. Can't wait to try the rest! read more

My wife and I booked the Playground and ran it with our 5 year old. Our game master was Chelsea and she did an amazing job keeping us engaged and was able to task our daughter with things to keep us all working and moving along. We decided to use a 40% off same day booking to run the Heist, also with our 5 year old. The heist was certainly more difficult than the Playground but was also great. Our Game master this time was Gyng. Overall it was a fantastic end to the Summer and absolutely ignited our Daughter's interest in Escape Rooms. Both the front end staff and the Game Masters made the experience incredible, fun, memorable and we will be back to try all of the games here. Everything was well maintained and clean, also great location to do other stuff while you're in the area. read more

Terrible service. The game was no prepared fully so we were interrupted during the game which affected us because we were not sure what we were trying to solve. Then after the game the staff were not apologetic at all and even were very dismissive. My group of 4 do escape rooms all the time so we know that if you purchase a card for the next time it will be a different price but the staff didn't even offer it to us I had to remind them. Not sure what was happening this time but truly disappointing. If you want friendly service I'd advise to go to any other location like the spectrum who always takes great care of you ! read more

The Escape Game will always be one of my favorite escape room companies. I've solved a majority of escape rooms with different friend groups by this company and I have to say that my absolute favorite of all-time had to be "Prison Break". It's definitely a memorable one for sure, but I would advise bringing a larger party for this difficult room! Also, I included a few key points down below to help anybody who's trying to figure out what room to do: Best Escape Rooms (in my personal opinion): - Prison Break - The Heist Runner-Up Escape Rooms with more complicated puzzles aka I struggled in these more lol (in my personal opinion): - Cosmic Crisis - The Depths - Playground All in all, I always recommend this company to my friends and they always have a great time with The Escape Game as well! read more

Love the games here! My husband and I have done The Heist, The Space One (can't remember the name) and this time we did Timeliner. Timeliner has been our favorite of the escape rooms. The puzzles were super fun. Honestly I think this would have been perfect for 4 people instead of 2. My husband and I def got a lot of hints. We finished the room! But with a lot of help. read more

This was our first time trying an escape room, and it was an absolute blast! We came here as a family. (Adults and 12 YO and 10 YO). We played The Depths, which has a difficulty rating of 7. I was worried it might be too easy and that we'd finish with too much time to spare--I was definitely wrong! It was challenging in the best way possible, we barely made it on time. Beyond the game, the staff were fantastic--professional, friendly, and incredibly thoughtful. They even went the extra mile by writing a birthday card for my son! If you're looking for a fun family activity, I highly recommend this place. Thank you Marci, Merah, Circe and Danie! read more

So fun! So far we have done 2 rooms (back To back, we couldn't wait!)They do take last minute reservations so by the time you're done with your shopping your escape room will be ready! Staff members are all super helpful, they do not penalize you for asking for clues you have one hour to escape and some rooms are more challenging than others. Definitely a day for family day, friends day or even a date. Can't wait to finish all the rooms! read more

Huge shoutout to our game master, T, for making this the best escape room experience I have ever had! I do not say that lightly. I have done escape rooms across the country and this is now my favorite location. Unfortunately, I live in Las Vegas, but I'll make sure to stop by when I'm in the area again. Las Vegas has a location on the Strip that was my favorite before I experienced the Orange location. I have completed Prison Break, the Heist, Gold Rush, Rugrats & the Playground at the Las Vegas location, that is how much I love the escape rooms created by this company. I completed the Timeline escape room with my boyfriend, brother, and my brother's gf. We had a blast. Even my boyfriend, who normally dislikes escape rooms talked about how much fun he had. T made our experience special by creating a sheet she laminated of our sayings while we played the game. I have never had a game master do that, so it was truly appreciated. We also got a little ticket at the beginning with our names on it that we are hanging on to for our memories. Thank you for bringing us joy and laughter T! read more

We returned to do 3 more rooms: Cosmic Crisis, Timeliner, and Playground. Originally it was just the first two but they convinced us to squeeze in Playground to close the night. All three rooms were really good but the stand out one was Playground. We played with just four of us and it was perfect. We had about 15-20 mins left when we escaped each room, and with no hints. Cosmic and Timeliner's puzzles were pretty techy and had a few locks to solve. Playground was loaded with dexterity puzzles and is my top favorite from TEG! They figured out a good formula for the their rooms and I'm loving it. I just wish their room were private bookings. read more

Located at the Block at Orange, this Escape Game place has been on my radar. Their website provides information about each escape game, difficulties and the time available. We booked our reservation ahead of time and we were in our own private group. Plenty of parking and things to do before and after. Nearby outlet shopping, Dave and Busters and many dining selections. Upon arrival, we were warmly greeted by the front, asked us to sign waivers and waited for our game master to take us to outer space in "Cosmic Crisis". The rooms were immersive and were built very well. The games involved technology with old school and new school puzzles, it got us old and young to be really involved and worked together. The game master was cool and the hints were helpful. We barely escaped with 4 minutes left. Everyone had a blast. Highly recommend booking in advance and wear comfy shoes and clothes. read more

Coming to this location is great because the place is surrounded by good food places. Also, the great thing is, if you are out and about with friends/family late at night, this is the place to go. Not is it only located close to a Dave and Buster's, there is also Lucky Strike. My family and I came out here to try their Escape Room - Prison Break. We were greeted by the manager there, T. She was extremely sweet and helpful. Our game master, Nova, helped us thru our adventure and we were able to Escape. We had so much fun that we quickly booked another room on the same night. We are definitely going to check out the other rooms when we can. read more

The Escape Game knows how to do escape rooms. They've been around since 2014 and have a solid reputation across the community for high quality props, customer service and puzzles, and the Orange location is no exception. We completed every room at this location and I highly recommend going during weekdays and avoiding weekends if you want to maximize your time and avoid being grouped with another team. Other that one caveat, everyone here is really nice and management takes issues seriously. I've also found that this company will really make it right--if for some reason you just don't have a good time they will really go out of their way to see that you are made whole. The reason I like the Orange location specifically is that the team here is just awesome. They're super nice and passionate about the industry, you can literally talk to them for hours about escape rooms, the company, or whatever and they're more than happy to spend the time explaining everything you might be curious about in detail. Hats off to The Escape Game Orange team and looking forward to more newer rooms opening up in SoCal. read more

If you're looking for an out-of-this-world experience, you have to try the "Cosmic Crisis" at The Escape Game in Orange, CA! This was easily one of the most immersive escape rooms I've ever done. From the moment you enter the room, you're transported to a futuristic space station where the fate of the universe rests in your hands. The puzzles were well crafted, blending technology and creativity to keep us on our toes the entire time. Every challenge felt purposeful, and the storyline unfolded in a way that kept us engaged and excited to see what would happen next. We worked together as a team, and the adrenaline rush of beating the clock added to the thrill. We succeeded and finished with 5 minutes left! The staff was top-notch--friendly, informative, and genuinely invested in making sure we had a fantastic experience. The facility was clean, well-maintained, and had a great atmosphere. Whether you're a seasoned escape room enthusiast or a first-timer, "Cosmic Crisis" is a must-try. I can't wait to come back and try the other rooms, especially Prison Break! read more

I had a great time here. We did two games in a day. The games were challenging, but you have unlimited help. Each room has a lot of varieties. The hosts were nice. We also got unlimited help.
