Corporate Team Building Events
The Basement specializes in Los Angeles Corporate Team Building Events! Playing our games is an excellent way to see how your team performs under pressure. Which sounds more engaging? Putting your brains together to escape the clutches of a cannibalistic serial killer; or a three legged race at the company picnic? Uh-huh. I thought so.
Group Participation, Strong Bonds, Better Communication, and Happy Employees are the result of a successful team building event. Creating a more effective staff starts with treating them well and giving them what they need. Give your team a super fun outing that secretly improves their at-work skills. Provide them with new experiences and memories that they’ll be talking about for years to come. Being The Cool Boss is a big responsibility, but with the right team building event, you’ve got it in the bag!

FAQ's
What is this?
The Basement is a live Escape Room experience. We specialize in unique and thrilling, heavily themed puzzle solving adventures. Our brave guests are locked inside of a story with the goal of discovering clues and unraveling secrets to solve their way to safety.
An escape room? What's that?
An escape room is an immersive, interactive experience where guests are locked in a room filled with puzzles, clues, and hidden items, with one goal in mind: ESCAPE! Or in our case, SURVIVE! If you would like a more detailed description, check out our blog post on the subject!
Wait, is this a haunted house?
No, at an escape room, the guests (or victims) are an active part of the experience; we ask a little more of you than to merely walk through a spooky maze. To complete your objectives before the clock ticks down to zero, you will need to engage with the room and its contents.
Are these experiences scary?
Yes and No. Our focus is to create an immersive and fun, puzzle-driven experience for our guests. That being said, the stories we tell through our games contain horror elements and can be considered frightening or upsetting. We don’t rely on cheap jump-scares or gorey shock-factors. We instead create a creeping sense of unease, that anything may happen when you walk into the dark.
What if I get too scared?
If at any time during your experience, you no longer wish to participate, you are welcome to leave your game. We pride ourselves on our empathetic and kind staff who are prepared to assist with any spooked guests. Please note that no refunds or reschedules will be available to guests who tap out of their experience.
