I made it through The Attic in 56 minutes! My Approximate Puzzle Breakdown: 25% Find the items 25% Trial & error lock combinations 30% Associations and symbol matching 15% Life-line hints 05% Wordplay riddles 00% Mathematical calculations This is my first time doing a breakdown like this so the categories and percentages may be a bit off, please comment with your own breakdowns. I wouldnt say this is my favorite combination of percentages, but I had an intimate group of 6 (max for the room) and we all signed up together and we had fun. Their online booking could use a little work. One of the other rooms that was bookable maxed out at 8 reservations despite a room max of 16 :( The staff was accommodating, friendly, and attentive.

Fun, challenging rooms. Hard to figure out, but not so difficult that it cant be done. My group was able to complete both rooms, though it took a full hour both times. Bring some good puzzle solving skills, will need to find combos for locks, keys, etc. Search for clues to unlock a chest to get the next clue. Secret doors, multi room challenges, great feeling of accomplishment once you make it through. Very fun, highly recommended

Went with a party of 14 to celebrate my sister and the customer service was fantastic! First, they helped us carrying everything in from the car. Next, they helped set up the table. They were extremely flexible and accommodating. They sang happy birthday. Played our songs while we mingled and their hint support was divine. I recommend this place to everyone and anyone in San Diego. Excellent.

Cool aesthetic and good customer service. The room we played "Escape Gallery" was not the most fun, as it came down to undoing a lot of number/letter combo pad locks. Also near the end everyone in the group was funneled down to working on the same puzzle at once. This meant 2 or 3 people were busy while the rest stood around, not really able to get in on the action.

This was such a wonderful and interesting experience. Went here with some friends recently looking for a mentally stimulating, challenging, and engaging experience. We were not disappointed! If you are not familiar with the escape room experience, and you are looking for something new to do in San Diego, Check this place out!

I stopped by this place and found out that they were the FIRST escape room in San Diego! They have incredible fun and original puzzle rooms. Great for experienced puzzlers. If you want a great date night or to bring some friends from work, this works for me!

Great team building event! Customer service is on point and I promise you will have fun solving the puzzles. Total adventure and something super fun to do! We loved the Gallery and we did escape! Next on the list is the Attic!!!

I went with a group of six yesterday. We did, "The Attic," and escaped with 11 minutes left. Very challenging and super fun! Great for team-work and it really forces you to use your brain. I would totally do this again!

It was my first time ever doing puzzle rooms. All I have to say is that, Escapism did a spectacular job! My family and I enjoyed every second of it. We will definitely be coming back soon!

Lots of fun if you like puzzles. It exceeded the expectations of the whole group! Better suited for adults than kids (maybe teenagers are OK)

Came here with a group and used a Groupon. Super fun way to spend an hour, but I dont think wed ever pay the full price for the experience.

Took my brother here for his birthday and he loved it! Puzzles are hard and you wont finish if it is your first time so dont feel bad.

The gallery was great! Very challenging but the hints helped. The staff was extremely nice and flexible with our groups needs.

Played the gallery, escaped the gallery! :) Tons of fun and great a time! Had to use hints twice for the more tricky puzzles.
