Olympus Raises the Bar

Posted on July 5, 2021 by Christine — No Comments ↓

Our newest experience, Olympus, has only been around for a short period of time, but it’s already claiming the spot of “Favorite Exodus Experience” by many of our clients! Here’s five reasons why this room is so popular: 1. Latest Escape Room Technology Olympus is our most high-tech room, with only one lock and key! So to those who appreciate modern escape rooms over traditional lock and key, you are going to love it! (For those who prefer an “old school” escape room with more locks and keys, try Elevator instead. It has a healthy mix of both!) 2. Special Effects! Thunder and Lightning! (Who doesn’t love thunder and lightning?!?) Zeus booming demands from above! This experience has lighting and sound effects that continually impress our clients. 3. The Underworld Need we say more? The most exciting part of the hero’s quest is always the moment they have to enter…

Exodus Rowland Heights – Sold!

Posted on April 27, 2021 by Christine — No Comments ↓

Going Once? Going Twice? SOLD!! That’s right, after five (5) years of serving Los Angeles County and the San Gabriel Valley market, we have SOLD our Rowland heights location! We are going to miss the San Gabriel Valley, as we value the relationships that we have built in the community. Over the years, we have partnered with Biola University on multiple occasions, been members of the La Habra Chamber of Commerce, worked with Noah’s Heart, and sponsored local soccer leagues on opening day. This is not the first time that we have helped somebody pursue a dream of business ownership, and we could not have been blessed with a better couple for this location! This husband & wife team (Jayden and Bonnie) are excited to bring some changes that will benefit the local community. They are Chinese, and speak Mandarin, allowing them to serve a larger portion…

Message From Our CEO

Posted on January 13, 2021 by Christine — No Comments ↓

Dear Exodus Fans, Friends, and Family: As you all know, businesses around the country are hurting right now. In fact, yet another neighbor of our Anaheim Hills store just closed permanently. This marks 3 just in our one little commercial center. Sadly, Exodus is not immune to this, we are hurting too. Do you know what industry has received the most “Fan Support” during this mess? I have a pretty strong guess! I have stood by and watched as the restaurant industry received a mountain of help, as #ShopLocal & #ShopSmall movements really picked up steam. I know this from first hand experience because my family also owns a Sandwich Shop. I watched as the store neared closure, and then it all started with one post, then another, then a waterfall of positive comments and love. Regulars and locals came out of the wood-works and swarmed the store for…

As one of the industry’s earliest movers (opening in 2014) we are often watched, and even contacted, by fans, those in the industry, other owners, etc. Since so many have reached out to us in one capacity or another, we thought we would take a moment to address you all. First and foremost, to our clients that keep us employed and help us feed our families: From the bottom of our hearts, we thank you for choosing Exodus.

Our 5 Year Anniversary!

Posted on January 30, 2020 by Christine — No Comments ↓

Exodus just celebrated it’s 5 Year Anniversary and we couldn’t be more proud or excited! The last five years have been full of amazing adventures and we look forward to seeing what the next five years will bring! I’m going to take you back through the past 5 years of escape rooms and Exodus! Brief history of the industry: When we first opened in 2014, we were one of the few escape rooms in the country and the first escape room in Orange County. At that point, very few people had heard of, let alone played, an escape room. They were barely entering the public view and many people weren’t sure they wanted to experience one. Fast forward five years and escape rooms can be found all around the world, as well as in popular media. They have quickly become a popular experience and Exodus has been around since the…

Team Building at Exodus!

Posted on September 30, 2019 by Christine — No Comments ↓

Team building/bonding: a term that brings excitement to some and horror to others. They are one of those things that no one can quite agree on. Some people love them, some people hate them, and some just don’t care at all! They often consist of groups of people who have different skills and interests, which can make it challenging when searching for an activity that everyone will enjoy. Well, I’m here at Exodus Escape Room to give you an idea for a super successful team building activity! …and yes, it is an escape room! Trust me, I’m aware that I am biased, but escape rooms really are an amazing team building or team bonding experience! They allow your group to get away from the office and experience something entirely new together for an hour! It allows them to work together, figuring out fun problems and puzzles, while completely taking their…

Tips from Escape Room Employees!

Posted on August 5, 2019 by Christine — No Comments ↓

Who better to ask for tips about escape rooms then people who run escapes every day?! Our team has seen thousands of people attempt our rooms and therefore has seen people make all the mistakes! When I asked a few of them what their top tips were, in regards to playing escape rooms, this was what they said: “My biggest tip is to try everything (unless it involves breaking something)! If somebody in your group has an idea, give it a shot before moving on, it could be exactly what you need. It also helps to try a few different things before putting something down. I see a lot of groups come really close to solving something and give up before they finish!” -Aaron, Escape Coordinator “Try to think like the escape room designer! We want you to succeed, so we often include subtle hints to guide you in the…

Debunking Common Escape Room Concerns!

Posted on June 27, 2019 by Christine — No Comments ↓

As the first escape room to open in Orange County, we have interacted with thousands of clients over the years, and have often run into people who have never heard of, or played, an escape room before. When I say that I lock people up for a living, it tends to lead to some confusion and quite a few questions. Over the years, I have heard many different concerns about trying an escape room, and today I will debunk some of those fears! I’m too scared to try an escape room! While there are plenty of fear-based rooms out there, Exodus has never had, and will never have, scary rooms. As someone who gets scared very easily (seriously, it’s ridiculous how easily I jump-scare), I was happy to find an escape room company that is not fear-based! All of our rooms are family friendly. They do not involve horror themes,…
