I booked without asking how much, and it surprised me how expensive it was, but in the end, I would 100% do it again, and they booked me for that day. Our host was Finn, and we liked him immediately. Apparently he looks like one of my son's favorite you tubers so my son was immediately pleased, ha ha. Finn was so patient as we tried the starter puzzle (for true newbies like us), and he was even more patient when we were failing hard-core in the room. We needed Gingy's (his) help a lot to get through it. His clues were perfect fits for us, and it allowed the experience to be crazy challenging (we sucked, but it was so fun, and the teamwork and memories were priceless) while also allowing us to progress - eventually- to the end. We did not escape the room in time, but Finn allowed us to see it through the end. Finishing made us SO happy! I don't think we ever had a better mother-son day together, and even though it costs me an entire day's pay for the two of us, we will be doing this again. I liked it so much I even invited my ex-husband to join us, because he is great at that sort of thinking... And we haven't done a thing together since we officially ended our 20 yr relationship in 2025, so if that doesn't mean I'm desperate to do more of this, and get better so we can try their medium level room, I don't know what would. Thank you Finn! You literally made our day, and week. I loved the pics you took at the end, and you made a special memory for us that I will cherish always.

Essentially it's a buncha mini games in rooms that range from physical to mental and pushes you to really listen and work together. Don't expect the grand theatrics of a commercialized space like Bodaborg. But that's what gives it its charm. I've been to a few facilities similar to this in the east coast and have always loved them but Game On has a more thoughtful local feel. We even got a chance to talk to one of the creators Eric and got the lowdown on the place. It's clear when you hear him talk that this place is something truly special. On top of the fantastic service and time, game on was extremely quick and responsive when I emailed and called the next day after I realized I lost my gold bracelet!! I had a suspicion that I lost it in one of the more physically intense rooms... and sure enough James went and found it for me immediately. NOT ONLY THAT! But he even fixed it himself and it was back in perfect condition when I came back to pick it up. This place is great for team gatherings but just be ready to test each others patience (in the best way possible). And I'll be honest but the games are not easy, but that's the magic in it. They're design to make you think and try again and again and again. Game on is probably great for all ages but is especially great for 21+ since you can chill and grab a beer between sessions. If you want something unique to do with your peers, coworkers, and friends I highly rec you spend some time at this local Berkeley establishment!!

In fact, I'm super surprised that I'm actually getting an FTR for this business, but I'll take it! We had approximately 45 in our group of yelployees and we all randomly split up into groups of six or seven. It was a wine making event and we were all given four types of wines and told to concoct our own blend. Malbec was my favorite by the way... The Cabernet Sauvignon was a close runner up. Each group came up with a team name and then nominated one person to sit on a panel of judges. The judges selected the best wine from the groups and the winning wine was then bottled and everyone was able to take a bottle home. How cool is that? Even cooler is the fact that my group won! Thank you Stephanie I, Paul R, Paul S, Vivek P, Laura N, and Zeva B for being such awesome team players. I had a blast drinking and concocting and winning with all of you! Our team name was "Tres" for the three wines we used in our winning blend and for the French meaning too. Plus, it just sounds sophisticated and cool, doesn't it?! (We came up with the team name after throwing out a bunch of other cool names including Sexy Juice, Grape Expectations, Burst, Happy Ending, and a handful of others.) Thank you, Total Adventures for working with us. I really do feel like I bonded with my fellow colleagues and I came home with an awesome bottle of wine to boot. As a matter of fact, I may just have to open that bottle this evening and relive the experience. I highly recommend this company if you're looking for a super fun, well-executed team-building activity for a group.

As it was, things tend to unfold a little like this: each team (there ended up being seven or so groups) chose a team name, and was presented with four carafes or so of Cabernet Sauvingon, Merlot, Malbec and one more (Cab Franc, I wanna say?). They laid down a few ground rules (you were required to specify a 'base wine' (my term) for each blend, sample each, and then ultimately choose one that would move on to the judging round at the culmination of the event. Our theory, right or wrong (and actually, if you're keeping score, it ended up being wrong, but oh well), was that we'd produce a blend that would be distinct enough on the palate that it would emerge from the pack. Apparently what that ended up meaning, of course, is that it ultimately wasn't particularly good, and save one first place vote(!), we finished next to last in voting. That said, the voting was almost an afterthought here, mostly because we were all engaged in the gentle craft of wine blending, and learned along the way what the rules re: blending are when calling a wine a wine of a certain type of vintage. It's a subtle science, perhaps, but Total Adventures served this one up just right: at room temperature, with just a hint of the bouquet of friendly competition. Cheers.
