At the time of this writing, there seemed to be limited showings of "Evening At The Houdini Estate" in both San Francisco and Los Angeles with costs ranging from $100 for a normal 90 minute session (my ticket) to $650 for a session and accommodations. MindTrap did not deliver on that expectation.Īfter not being able to find any enthusiast reviews for 49 Boxes, I decided to post about my experience at 49 Boxes San Francisco showing in November of 2017. So, on a long drive, passing through a small town, I was fully expecting to find a room great for a small town. Competition in dense markets, however, has pushed the boundaries as to what an escape room can be, leaving these rooms in the dust. It’s the format that initially got many of us hooked on escape rooms. These rooms can still be wonderful, especially for beginners. The market doesn’t support a lot of investment and the customers don’t have much experience with escape rooms, so you see a lot of no/low-tech rooms, common puzzle types, and nothing but lock boxes. In my experience, rooms in small towns, isolated from a competitive market, are great for small towns.
On several occasions, I have been given recommendations for MindTrap in Temecula but have always been hesitant to make the trip to try it out.
Our drive home took us through the small town of Temecula, known mainly for their wineries. We had a great time but we weren’t satiated by what we had seen. San Diego has some great rooms to play, but can be overshadowed by the quality and quantity of experiences to be found in Los Angeles and Orange County.Īs we hopped in the car to leave San Diego, that feeling persisted. On this trip, it meant a drive to explore what San Diego had to offer. Written by Matt Neal: A weekend trip out of town for us almost always means exploring escape rooms outside our normal playground.
