Why it made the list: We recommend this for groups who want high-stakes physical consequences rather than just mental puzzles. It is the premier choice for those who want the literal threat of a paint bomb to motivate their escape.

We are not giving this one a Vie Score: only 2 people have posted about it for this dish, and we do not score anything under 3. It is on the list because what we did find is worth knowing.
Why it made the list: We recommend this location for players who want to avoid horror but still crave high intensity. It's the perfect choice for a spy-themed mission with live actors in a central mall setting.

Popular in Kuala Lumpur, but not for escape room
People post about these places plenty. What they post about is not escape room, so they are not ranked above, and we would rather say that than pad the list.
OhanaJo Studio: the posts are about this place, but not about this dish
International Institute of Islamic Thought and Civilization (ISTAC-IIUM): the posts are about this place, but not about this dish

Google stars are not part of it, on purpose: everyone already has those. Too thin to judge means no score at all, which is why 2 of 4 places here carry one. Nothing in this guide is paid for.
