Dale S. - Yelp - Clockwise Escape Rooms Pleasanton

★★★★★

"Our gamemaster Taj was awesome! He was ever-vigilant and super engaging. He really made our whole experience great. We can't wait to come back when the Three Kingdoms room is finally finished and I hope Taj is our gamemaster again. I can't recommend this business enough!"

"Taj, our game master, was so nice.  He gently guided us in the right direction when it looked like we were confused and in need of some assistance.  We would highly recommend Clockwise Escape."

"The gamemaster Taj was attentive and helpful (and he gets extra points for humoring my wife when she made a joke and none of us laughed) My team was able to complete the escape with more than 10 minutes to spare but it was a tough one for sure. We can't wait to come back for Three Kingdoms room when it is ready."

"Taj was the light we needed in our struggles of darkness. This man deserves a promotion, truly a 10/10 guy."


Franklin S. - Yelp - Clockwise Escape Rooms Pleasanton

★★★★★

"What made the day even more special was the outstanding service from Taj. He accommodated us on the same day without a reservation, and his friendly and funny demeanor made the whole experience even more enjoyable. He even offered us a great deal on another room if we had the time, which was a tempting offer we would've taken up if we didn't have other plans."
