Reviews for The Escape Game San Diego: Movie-Quality Escape Rooms for every Group Adventure

Went on a Friday evening with some girlfriends and we did the Ruins game with our game guide Jules. The game is well designed with different effects and immersion. The tips are good though need a bit of thinking often. We all enjoyed the experience and would love to come back to the game!

I went here during my honeymoon, and the staff were the nicest people ever! We had such a good time in the room, and when we came out they have made a personalized card for us since we visited during our honeymoon. I highly suggest stopping by if you have an hour to spare!

Claire was so helpful!! This game was so fun I went for my 20th birthday! She was amazing and so way the guy at the cash register!! Amazing service everyone was so kind

These by far are the best escape rooms in San Diego!!!

My husband and I took a short trip to San Diego to celebrate our first wedding anniversary and last minute decided to do an escape room here! We did prison break and had an amazing time and managed to escape. Not only was our game master incredibly helpful and kind, he also gave us a happy anniversary card after we had escaped! As we were getting ready to leave we found out you get a great discount if you book another room before leaving so we decided to do a second one that same night! We had so much fun that we just decided to come back and check off every escape room they have in the rest of the weekend! I had a great time in every room and cannot suggest them enough. Personally, I think prison break and gold rush are the most fun! I also got discounted gift cards for other locations after we completed all the rooms at this location! Cant wait to keep doing these amazing escape rooms! And yes, we escaped all five !

Where do I start this place is just amazing, the customer service is the best I’ve experienced anywhere ever, Nora, our game host, was helping us schedule our next game and was invested in our day and tight schedule and was able to work around it for us. After our game was done she wrote us the nicest custom cards for a birthday, graduation, and a letter for one of our members that ran 5k earlier that day. She showed us all the different rooms and did a great job helping us pick which ones would fit us best. The rooms are also extremely high tech with giant hidden doors and very detailed custom props. They also have cool videos for the room that run you through the story to really get you invested in the room. Again thank you to the team for giving us the best customer service we have ever experienced and just a great time in general.

Amazing experience here! My girlfriend and I went and did the ruins forbidden treasure and it was my first time doing an escape room and I had a great time. Thank you to the escape game and specifically our game guide Rebecca for taking care of us. We felt so welcomed here.

Had my son's birthday there. Staff was great and very friendly. Multiple rooms and levels to choose from and they want to go back soon.

Claire was great very welcoming. We played both Cosmic Crisis with Julia and The Heist with Charlotte. These ladies really made the games engaging and enjoyable. We came for our son’s graduation and they signed a card for us. I would definitely come back here. Thank you for making our son’s day so special!

We had such a great time at this escape room! The puzzles were fun, challenging, and really well designed. Our host, Conner, made the experience even better — he was friendly, energetic, and gave the helpful with the hints when we needed them. You can tell he enjoys what he does and wants everyone to have a good time. Highly recommend this place, especially if you get Conner as your host!

Ray was incredible and we had so much fun. Escaping the "Prison Break" was a blast and stumped even my friend who goes often. I'd request Ray as a guide again. And this escape was so interactive. Many laughs and fun challenges. Photo 1 in review by Vail Lindsey

Had an awesome time here! My girlfriend and I did The Depths which was a good challenge and a nice intro for me with it being my first escape room. Harrison was great too, he gave the right amount of hints while still letting us figure out much of it on our own. Definitely recommend coming here if you’re in the Gaslamp area and looking for something fun and different to do!

It was our first time as a family and it was amazing. Definitely coming back and would recommend for anybody looking for an amazing experience. The customer service there was excellent.

Tommy and Kail were awesome! Very friendly and welcoming staff. They went the extra mile and surprised my fiancé and I with a celebratory gift bag with lots of goodies which was so appreciated!! We did the Special Ops room and had so much fun! Definitely would recommend and we will be coming back the next time we’re in the area.

We had an amazing time playing today, Nico was an absolute amazing game host! Come show him some love 🤙🏽

Gabriella was an AMAZING host on our escape room experience and was very helpful when we needed clues!!! We will definitely be coming back next time we visit San Diego!

The escape room was amazing! Nico and Aiden were incredibly friendly and nice. We had such an awesome experience! They even wrote a small letter for my boyfriend's birthday, which was so sweet and made his celebration unforgettable!

Tommy was our host for the evening and did a great job Elliot was also friendly and kind and made the experience welcoming. The puzzles were challenging enough to keep me asking for hints but not so hard I felt completely stumped! A cool time! Thanks again Tommy and Elliot!

Two for two! This was a really great experience. Harrison, Nico, and Tommy really make this experience even more fun! We will definitely be making this a staple stop when we visit SD.

Harrison was great! Really held us down! Went for date night and would love to go back with a group of friends!

This has been the best weekend Tommy and Joanna and Mia were amazing and ran the best rooms. 💯 best family experience. We will definitely be coming back !!!

Customer service was so good that we decided to come back for a second game the same night. The puzzles are very challenging, well organized, and flowed. After doing dozens of escape rooms throughout the country and in Canada, I would highly recommend coming here.

THE BEST ESCAPE ROOM IN SAN DIEGO!!!! My friends and I have done multiple rooms and this was by far the best escape room experience we’ve had in years. Sophia our game master was absolutely amazing! She really set the vibe and tone of the game. We booked double rooms (the playground and the heist) and both rooms were hi-tech , interactive and very well built. It wasn’t your standard lock and key room, but truly a whole experience and story. 10/10!!! Can’t wait to book the others rooms. Also shout out to James for being super awesome in the front and checking us in! Thank you the escape game!!

They do everything super well here, and honestly it was the best Escape Room experience I’ve had yet. We did the Ruins, and the design, puzzles, and experience was so fun. The team here is extremely nice and made the experience all the better. This is a great spot and addition to the area. Can’t wait to go back and try more!

Paloma, our game guide was awesome! Second time at TEG San Diego (returned the same week because it was so great the first time) and they were so nice! Was gifted a sweet note for my upcoming birthday from the workers. I hope more people find out about this location, they deserve it!

My friend and I did the prison break room with Christina, and lemme tell yall something … not only was the room amazing and so much fun, but Christina really ate and slayed the house down as our game master. She was really helpful with the hints, and gave the perfect amount to help nudge us in the right direction, when we were getting lost. She is an actual queen for that. Very attentive for when we needed help which we loved. She also noticed that we had some squid game keychains on our bags and made us this cute lit(large)tle post card! It was so cute and we will be back because of this amazing experience!!

This place is AMAAAAZING we played Ruins and Cosmic Crisis and they were two of the best escape games I’ve ever played! Naveen (hope I spelled it correctly!) was also a fantastic guide and gave the perfect custom clues for Ruins, and Birdie and Desiree gave us an epic experience in Cosmic Crisis!!! SOOO excited to play the rest of the games!!

Literally the BEST escape room I’ve ever done! We did the Cosmic Crisis and were immersed from the very beginning. Claire (our host) did an amazing job engaging us in a respectful and entertaining way. The decision was easy to buy a couple of gift cards to come back and try a different room. Oh, and of course, we escaped.

This was one of the most immersive escape rooms I've done. It was such a high quality experience, from interacting with the game masters to the room itself. The puzzles are interactive in a way I hadn't experienced. You can tell that a lot of thought was put into the design of the game. Unbeknownst to me beforehand we went on opening day of the new location. Everyone was so hyped to be there and the employees were incredibly kind and friendly. My group is already planning our next escape here.

Service: 10/10 Facilities: 10/10 Production Quality: 10/10 Game: 10/10 I brought the family here for father's day and it was a perfect activity for all of us to do together. The kids and I have done escape rooms in the past and this by far was the highest quality one we've experienced. The design and implementation of the room was well thought out and there was a lot of production effort put into the story. Christina our game guide was very helpful and friendly and we had so much fun we almost went back for another round after lunch. We'll definitely be coming back for another game.

Fantastic experience doing Gold Rush, the staff were so friendly and the set design was mega realistic with lots of thoughtful detail. We had a great experience with San Diego Escape Game that we're planning on doing the Las Vegas games too!! Highly recommended!
