Tyler Russell McCusker of Laguna Beach and his business co-founder at Breach Escape Games have launched a Kickstarter campaign to help complete their science fiction-themed escape room concept in Lake Forest.
Since 2016, players have enjoyed a futuristic scenario with McCusker’s other venture, The Escape Bus, Orange County’s first mobile escape room, or traveled back to 1960 to solve the murder in “Secrets of Suburbia.”
Now, players will embark on “USS Destiny,” a replayable, choose-your-own-path escape game built at the company’s Lake Forest warehouse.
