Another great room from Deception. We enjoyed the last one we did here too. Very immersive and the tension built throughout.

We don't usually go for rooms with scares so this was a bit different for us. There were some challenging puzzles and some sections made even trickier by the nature of the room. Overall, it was a substantial room for just two of us and the atmosphere brought even more of a challenge!

Reviews by escape room review sites

An enjoyable escape room with plenty of puzzles and a great sense of exploration and story. Some puzzles might have been a bit of a stretch but on the whole a thoroughly enjoyable experience in a pretty town.
When you see an escape room called “Trapped” you might assume you’re actually trapped somewhere and escaping from it, but not so at Deception. Here it’s a Doctor trapped in a “web of secrets and horrors” and your job is to break into his office, find what he’s hiding, and escape with the evidence.
