Last week, my family including my 12 year old nephew teamed up to solve 'Elevate : Skylounge' in Irvine from WildGoose Escapes. Our shared opinion is that the moderate (3/5) difficulty rating is accurate. Even so, it took us 58 of allotted 60 minutes to fully complete the challenge and escape both the anteroom (the elevator) and the main room (the Skylounge). The elevator and lounge is a fun setting for the escape but the game is overall slightly lacking in story and main (NPC) character development. All puzzles worked well with just one or two that required random pairing of items to solve the puzzles (in my opinion). Of the dozen or so puzzles that need to be solved to escape the Skylounge, at least ten were fair and logical. We had Duc as our MC and he was professional both in the brief pre-game instruction period as well as through hints and 'nudges' during the game (we required one of each when we were stuck). All puzzles were set up correctly and operated as designed. Duc was helpful throughout and his input did allow us to make one jump in problem solving late in the game that is necessary to achieve the complete solution to the escape room. Careful observers and clever problem solvers should be able to escape the room in under 60 minutes with either no or one or two hints. We had a good experience and felt that the Skylounge stacked up well against the two other escape room experiences we have had--perhaps the best so far in the medium difficulty category.

So much fun!! We played Tesla's mystery and the zombie lab, they were both amazing. Shoutout to Mike the bearded gamemaster for being the best! We will definitely come back!

It was challenging and you definitely had time issues if it was your first time like mine. I would suggest doing a beginner level first to get the feel. I went with a group who had done a few escape rooms before and we did the intermediate level. The staff were awesome!

They were so very patient helping us with clues...it was challenging and you could go back several times to the same experience! We really enjoyed....you do learn about the people you are with. Bring your sense of humor too.

We had such a great time! Niall took care of us from the beginning to the end! I highly recommend for groups of friends and families who love the thrill of solving good clues and riddles! He had great guest experience training! Thanks for a good time!
