Super fun experience with good puzzles and a really cool staff. The puzzles were so good im going to use some as inspiration for our d&d game. This place is a great mental stimulus for dungeon masters!

Nice place with really good puzzle rooms. Couldn’t solve the Pandemic Zero room in 1 hr not possible.

Having done over 60 escape rooms my fiance and I along with some other friends visited Omescape San Jose to play Sorcerers Sanctum.Sorcerers Sanctum is a Gen 2 room with some locks and keys that is rather expansive featuring a fair a mount of tech incorporated. Setting and art was rather impressive while theres a good amount of puzzle density. Our team of 8 people had plenty to do each room and had plenty of room to move around the entire time (including a split start).If I had to be a bit critical toward the room is that I felt the puzzles did not serve the theme as well as Ive seen others in the bay. These were less wizard puzzles and moreso puzzles with a wizard theme however they were rather well done and made sense from a logic perspective.ResultsOur team of 8 managed to escape with 5 minutes left taking in 3/4 hints

Enjoyed our visit. This was our first time at escape room and OMESCAPE turned out great choice! Front desk guy was really helpful.

This place was a lot of fun!! The way it was designed so nice!! Seriously coming back to this place again. Eric the manager was super nice and helpful. Reccomend you to try this!!

Fun escape room. Challenging but doable we have done a few rooms and this was one of our favorites

Super fun experience for a friends birthday. We had a great time, thanks so much omescape!

Very cool game playing with friends, lots of riddles only have a certain time to exit the maze

Kind of hidden back in a industrial area this place was awesome. The staff was great and accommodating for our late arrival and kept us engaged with the story. It was a great time for a team building exercise!

Very enjoyable escape room. We did the jokers asylum which is their toughest room, and barley finished. Definitely very challenging and well made rooms and the owners and organizers after very friendly. Highly recommend if you enjoy escape rooms. We will be going back again!

High production value. Also appreciated the fact that there was no need to take apart something to find a clue. Very elaborate and use of electronics made “magic” seem believable.

Ive been to a few other escape rooms and these are by far the coolest rooms Ive gone to. Each room has a theme that is incredibly well done. The amount of detail in decorating is amazing. And what I find to be coolest part is all of the mechanics that go into it. Its not just physical puzzles and keys to things. They use a lot of sensors that often unlock things across the room. It makes it feel magical and its exciting because you never know whatll happen when you complete a puzzle. So far, Ive done every room but 1 (that I also plan on doing) and theyve all been great. One last plus is that you dont get paired up with random people. You just need to have the minimum number of players for each room.

The Sorcerer room was the first and only room we have done here and it was the most difficult my friends and I have done.Many logic puzzles and critical thinking are necessary.Intro video was cheesy but in a good way.My friends and I are excited to return to try another room.We lost a half hour due to a cabinet we could have opened from the start, but because it felt fragile we didn’t pull hard enough.Only minor gripe I have is at the end they give you the solutions if you fail the room, so no point in coming back and trying again.Otherwise, best escape room venue I’ve been to.

We tried the hardest difficulty which they touted as one of the hardest in the Bay Area! Id say it was pretty hard but they offset the difficulty by being over generous with the tips. For most of my group I think they were fine with this, but I personally like the challenge of not being frequently given very obvious clues since I dont feel the escape is as rewarding. But honestly thats miniscule for the fun had with friends :)

My boyfriend bought the Sorcerers Sanctum for 6 people for my birthday and it did not disappoint! The staff was amazing and we have such a great time! We solved it but it took us 72 mins. and we were in the last room when our time ran out so the staff was amazing and gave us clues to complete the last puzzles. They also have tables and a few games boards so next time we book it we will come early or stay later to play games. Plenty of parking and I cant wait to try the Kingdom of Cats.

So much fun! Each escape room has multiple rooms and really well done puzzles as well as the design and atmosphere of each area of the experience. Highly recommend!

Professional staff and amazing escape rooms. I felt like I was walking into a scene from Harry Potter (Sorcerers Sanctum). The clues varied in difficulty so there are puzzles for all team members to solve. We talked about our experience for days. Loved it!

Well designed scenarios that span multiple rooms, with a good number of physical puzzles. Thoroughly enjoyed the sorcerers sanctum, and will come again soon!

The Kingdom of the Cats room is fun! There are very interesting puzzles. The set is nice too. There is lots of technology, but some traditional locks too though.The staff was nice, and it was a cool experience

Great escape room. Just like 75% of the other people we didn’t get out in time. But we were close. Dark altar is hard. And gets harder as you get further.

I have done two rooms here, Kingdom of Cats and Sorcerers Sanctum, and they were both well designed and challenging. Kingdom of Cats was the easier one, and we finished with four people in about forty minutes. Sorcerers sanctum we had five people for but ran out of time. All in all both were a lot of fun and I look forward to trying more of their rooms

Ive only tried one puzzle so far, but I have to say the mystery and architecture are very creative. Its certainly better than some of the other ones in downtown. Staff are generally friendly, and they were trying to help with anything we asked for.

I had never been to an escape-room before. We had a blast! Our work had a department, team building event. We started by working all day together, then moved the fun into small locked rooms. Totally fun! If you have the time to squeeze into small spaces with you family or friends, then do it. In fact, follow our lead and make it a team building event for your work as well!

This is the probably the best escape room in the Bay area. I have tried over a dozen escape room and this one stands out for the quality of the rooms ( very slick and clean), quality of the puzzles and effects ( all electronic ) . Highly recommend !

Came here with for my birthday with my friends, we ran out of time bit had a blast.

I can not wait to return to Omescape! My boyfriend and I had never experienced an escape room before and it was such an amazing experience! I thought the lobby looked really nice, there were other games to play, and then they explained the game to us with a awesome video and put us in the room. We did the kingdom of cats and it was a blast! I felt like a kid again, being curious and in aw of all the surprises along the way. We escaped the room too! Cant wait to go back and try a different room.

Did a team building event here. Lots of fun. Wished I could try all the rooms.

This was a very fun experience! We did Pandemic Zero which was a lot of fun!

The room was really well thought out, with unique puzzles! The staff was very pleasant. We look forward to trying some of their other rooms.

The escape room we did was kingdom of cats and it was so cool! The puzzles lead you to different rooms and it was a very cool creative room. I am not good at escape rooms at all, so I was very happy that the staff were so nice about helping us out by giving us clues. They were very patient with us. They have board games to play while you wait for your room, or if you get there early.

Super super fun! Well organized and an awesome activity to connect family members, friends or a business team to work together! I LOVED it!

We did ‘kingdom of cats’ and had great time! Was challenging enough and we asked for hint but wasn’t overkill and we finished on time. Stuff is very friendly and good people- I made mistake with booking, they resolved it without any fuss

So this the best escape room for the budget in the town. Puzzles are well designed and high tech. However their customer service is so bad that I couldnt book the room twice. One time they booked a whole different date even after they confirmed the date with us. We got there and they apologized but didnt do anything to accommodate us. Which is understandable since they were double booked.Second time for the same room, we got a code that we could use for booking that we called in to book since code wasnt working online. They confirmed the booking on the phone. On arrival, the booking was not there. Upon inspection they told us a story which kept changing, that they cant find the booking, they have an alternate profile, their old system didnt transfer the booking over. I would say if you have to call dont go. If you did everything online and it worked, just go for it. BTW they took 20 minutes just to refund the money.

Along with Off the Couch, this company makes the best escape rooms in the South Bay. They tend to have the best tech

Kingdom of cats was very cool with 4 teenagers. The rooms were fun and challenging. Highly recommend it for birthday party or team building

10/10 would attend again. Great team building venue with challenging puzzles.

Extremely friendly staff. The clues were challenging yet solvable. They let us go on a few extra minutes even after our time was up.

Awesome Escape room experience. The location is not the greatest, but felt safe and had a great time. Staff was helpful and friendly. Highly recommend.

My family and I did the Sorcerers Sanctum room in San Jose over Thanksgiving, and we had so much fun we were still talking about it days later! Most of the family were escape room novices, but the puzzles were appropriately challenging, and the whole room was very thematic. Ive done several other rooms through Omescape, all of which were similarly exciting, and Id highly recommend the room and Omescape overall.Note: For anyone with physical disabilities, several of the rooms do involve some crawling, but the staff will warn you about these if you ask, and in most cases crawling can be avoided.

Came here with a group of 8 people and tried Sorcerers Sanctum. For most of us, it was our first time doing an escape room. It turned out to be more difficult than we had anticipated. The staff and crew members are really friendly and helpful and willing to accommodate. the facility is really nice and good for a team building event or just a group of friends who want to try and solve puzzles together. I would go do it again.

Best escape room experience in the Bay Area! The puzzles are very interesting and not limited to word puzzles. Feeling like went through a real mission, great for friends get together and team building. Highly recommended!

Went here for my wifes birthday. We had a group of 10 and we tried Sorcerers Sanctum and we almost made it. It was worth it and the rooms (4) were very challenging. It was a nice combination of triggered events, operated opening doors, and locked boxes. The aesthetics are high quality, almost theme park-like quality. We would liked to another room at Omescape.

Ive done 4 different rooms here (16 in total and counting). Omescape is definitely one of the best escape rooms Ive done. I was very satisfied with all of the rooms Ive tried in terms of both quality of the facility and difficulty level of the puzzles. Highly recommend!!

Lots of fun, really creative escape room with the right level of challenging and story!

Did the Joker room. Wow! Sweet production value.

Amazing, difficult but definitely fun. High quality escape room!

Had a great time with my family on my birthday. My advise is if youve never experienced an escape room, choose the easy one. They can be challenging. My son in-law, who has done several, said this was the best. Enjoy

Went here as a wedding present for my friend. We did the kingdom of cats room, and it was great. The puzzles were all understandable and we were not often stuck because the puzzles were unclear. Definitely a higher quality escape room than some others in the area, I would definitely reccomend it. I had some trouble booking and ended up booking two rooms due to an issue with the website, but a simple call to the business was enough to cancel the one room and get a refund.

Great atmosphere and rooms. Did Kingdom of Cats and had a blast

Great for a social event! We tried the hardest level and it was fun! Some of the puzzles were not that intuitive, but I guess thats why it was the hardest level. The event was well organized, the administrators were friendly and helpful.

Had a group of 40 people for a company team building event and it was amazing! Organization was great and they made everything super easy. The 5 rooms are very well designed with awesome puzzles - highly recommend it!

Pretty fun and great way to bond with your friends. Also great way to argue with friends and realize you need better friends who can carry you through the hard parts.

This is my second time doing an omescape room. I think they’re good for the price and if you’re newer to escape rooms. However the puzzles aren’t the greatest and I feel like the puzzles are hit or miss. They decorate to make it immersive but I feel like they could still do a little more because I’ve been to some other escape rooms where it genuinely feels like you’ve entered a whole new place altogether. Overall they’re a decent place and you’ll absolutely still have a great time whether or not you’re experienced.

Been to my fair share of escape rooms and I have to say, this was probably one of the best/most creative. we did Jokers Asylum... multiple rooms with definite teamwork aspects required and very challenging (but sensible) clues. had our group not been hungover, i think we could have broken the time record lol.

Very fun experience. High production value for all the props and decorations. Would love to come back and try a different room. Highly recommend.

Very fun! Some of the clues were tricky but that made it extra fun! We were a group of 11 and that felt like it was a good number of people. We finished in 63 minutes, so I appreciated being given the option for 5 extra minutes. I also really liked how the doors remained open once we unlocked them.

My friends and I loved the sorcerers sanctum. It was cool to have to move from room to room as we solved clues/puzzles. And how after we solved something, we would see an immediate result, like a door opening, a light turning on, and latch click, etc. And we got to use wands for our theme too! Also, we didnt need to use any of our personal knowledge in order to solve the puzzles, which was such a relief. We had a blast, and we would definitely come back to try a different theme sometime.

One of the easiest 5 stars Ive given. We did the sorcerers sanctum, and everyone was having a blast. The escape was super immersive with lots of fun and interesting puzzles.

Played 2 rooms here: pandemic zero and sourcerers sanctum. Both were great and are on the harder side.

Awesome as always. Best escape rooms ever!

Well done. Very consistent theme. Great atmosphere. Challenging puzzles.

Went with a group of 4 and did dark altar. Youre very nicely designed and helpful when we needed tips. Got so close to solving but sadly the time ran out. Just a little bit difficult to find the building if youve never gone before.

I was in Joker Asylum escape room. Its awesome! One of the best escape rooms. Engineered very well. Restrooms could be cleaner thought.

So fun! It was our first escape room and we will definitely be coming back!

I have participated in 20+ escape rooms and the Kingdom of Cats was easily one of the most unique adventures Ive tried.My family and I (father and mother in law, wife, 12 year old daughter and 11 year old son) escaped with 14 minutes left. The room is considered a beginner room based on its theme and simplicity of the puzzles.As veteran escapers, my wife and I were able to enjoy helping our kids and parents get the most out of their experience without extreme time pressure. Even still, we were briefly stumped by a couple puzzles, making for a nice overall challenge.The next day I went with another group of escape room newbies to tackle Pandemic Zero. It was definitely more challenging than Cats and we even required a hint to escape.

Fun place! This was my first escape room experience and Im not disappointed. I did the wizard one that I think was 4 star difficulty with my Co-workers. Moving doors, brain puzzles, crawlspaces, it was pretty exciting.

Excellent escape room. There were multiple inner rooms to explore, very clever puzzles. We came so close to finishing, but even though we didnt pull it off, we had a fantastic time. Definitely want to come back and try their other rooms.

This was a really fun experience for my friends and I. We were able to have a group try to do the Jokers room. We were told it was the most difficult room and we almost solved it. When our time expired, we were able get a mini extension and where given some more clues. And finally finished it. The hands on mind cultivating experience is something amazing. The clues where a great addition to the adventure and we were able to test our witt with our friends and loved ones. I would recommend this to anyone and do it again. For a bunch of rookies we did very well.

I’ve done two of these so far. They’re challenging, creative and a blast to do!

Did Pandemic Zero with a group of friends. The building is a little hard to find, but the rooms are clever and challenging, without being impossible! Staff are super friendly and helpful with giving out hints.

Did the pandemic four difficulty. The puzzles in the first room and the third were a little too out there for an average person i think. We had two people who had been before and even they were confused. When our time had reached 70 minutes in the last room which is about the same for every group that takes the max time, the guide will come in and just start solving his own stuff as fast as possible to fet you out for the next group. Will try an easier one next time.

Played Pandemic Zero today with a group of 6 people. A lot of fun!

The room we did had very good puzzles, and was in a linear fashion. Which for the beginners in my group, was ideal. It steel feels challenging but doable, and got them all addicted.

It was great experience! We did pandemic zero. It was challenging, well designed and well maintained by local stuff. I would love going again for new adventure!

Hands down our favorite place to do escape rooms. Escape rates are low, and the puzzles are very challenging, but they are really well themed and feel like they are part of the narrative they are constructing rather than just a random Sudoku in your puzzle room.

Very cool experience. My group attempted the most challenging Jokers Revenge which is aptly rated. We were able to get pretty far along but didnt quite make it out on our own. The crew was very helpful and friendly. I feel like some of these should be more than an hour though. Also, having a displayed clock counting down the remaining time would help instead of just an announcement every 20 minutes.

First time doing an escape room was lots of fun. The game and rooms were well thought out and quite challenging. Staff was friendly and helpful. Overall it was a fun way to spend a Sat morning.

We had such a great time with our friends! We plan on going back to try all of the other rooms. :-D

The escape rooms are very fun and you can choose different ones so It doesn’t get boring.

They have challenging puzzles and very friendly staff. They gave us extra time to escape. And explained every puzzle that we cannot solved at the end. Highly recommended!

This escape room was fantastic! Two things that I wish we had known in advance were that we would be able to continue if we didnt solve the puzzle in the hour time limit and that we would be split up for the first (small) section. We did the sorcerer room and our group was divided in two for the very first section. I think its a neat challenge level but definitely threw off the chemistry. Very much appreciated the increased level of challenge as our last escape room we solved in under thirty minutes and was told that we were alarmingly fast. Sets were solid and world-building was great. We had one little piece of wonky equipment that slowed us down by several minutes too but overall had a positive experience.

Great designed! Gives you brief introduction of the story background. Wont waist time on dumb things such as spelling words or finding things under carpets. Lets you finish the game and enjoy the happiness solving puzzles yourself! Strongly recommend Joker room:)

Fun and well organized. Was able to complete the room I did but got stuck a few times. Hints were helpful and didnt give away the answers to any of the puzzles.

Super fun escape room with great attention to detail. Challenging as a group, but not impossible and completely captivating while inside.

Did the Sorceror one. Party of 8 including 5 kids. One of the best rooms we ever did. Super fun. Lots of details. Very helpful staff.

We went there as a family with two sons aged 21 and 13. It was a really good family adventure if you like to be challenged. We tried the easiest room, but still had to get 4 minutes extra on top of the hour. Props are good and the one giving hints is professional and engaging. Really recommended.

The adventures and puzzles were well designed. The Pandemic and Sorcerers sanctum are fun, Id say medium difficulty. Ive done ones that were a lot harder to crack.

Pandemic Zero was beautifully designed and very fun to play. Good for a group of 4-6, assuming at least a few in the group have some experience with escape rooms.Their other escape rooms are quite fun as well! They are consistently high-quality and satisfyingly enjoyable.

Having done escape rooms before, I thought I had an advantage to offer the team. Unfortunately we tried the greatest difficulty (all the rest were booked) and failed in epic fashion. Had we had another 2-3 hours, maybe it would have happened.But compared to other room escapes? This one:1. Has great props2. Has 80% perfect level challenging puzzles (but 20% seemed impossible which they overcome by offering hints via radio and were quite good at steering you in the right direction without giving away the answer)3. Plenty of parking4. Really enjoyable waiting area but they were also very punctual5. Provided adequate time between groups to reset things and discover one of my team had in fact walked off with a prop because he didnt check his pockets but we were able to drive back and not screw up the next team6. Really fun crew. It felt like they loved their job :)Nice place!

We had an awesome experience! It was a our first time for all our group members.The sorcery room was super fun though we haven’t finished on time (that’s obvious why :))But still I would love to go and try another room.For first timers I recommend try a level 3 instead of jumping on level 4 like we did :)

After doing the Pandemic Zero escape room with a friend, I HAD to come back to OMESCAPE and bring my whole family! There were about 7 or 8 of us and did Joker’s Asylum. Everyone was a little nervous at first, but we absolutely LOVED it!!! Highly recommend OMESCAPE and all of their games, the staff is great, the atmosphere is great, just all around an awesome experience!

I did the Pandemic Zero room with my siblings and a friend the day after Christmas. Super Fun! Cant wait to do another one here soon! Inspired me to buy the Pandemic board game too.

At this point my friends and I have done nearly every game at this location. One we even played twice. Each has been as fun as the last. We’ve even branched out to the Richmond location. I highly recommend Omescape and its staff.

Escape rooms are one of my favorite things when it comes to adventure.They have different levels on Bob and lucky for us we took the most complex one and because of that we were not able to Come out of the Room in the given time.The person there also are helped us in a giving the clues and helped us to solve the puzzle so that we could the know what actually answers were of The given puzzles.

Some of the most fun Ive ever had! Ive done 4 different rooms between their two facilities, and the puzzles are challenging but so rewarding. Get yourself some good friends and treat yourself to a great time!

The escape rooms are not the best of the bay area but good quality and fun. Staff is great.

Its a place where you can sign up a birthday party and you enter a mysterious room.

Great experience, well decorated room and fairly challenging. We did one of the easiest rooms so it was not super difficult (as expected). Im sure the others get very challenging.

The experience was great the staff was very nice and a pleasure to talk to. This was my first time in one of these rooms so I didnt know hat to expect. I had a blast and want to do it again. Only thing I am getting older so my vision isnt great so a bit more light would be great or a small flash light.
