plainunoriginal

I bought vouchers when they were running a sale and made a cheeky back-to-back booking.

Story

Collect the 12 perks to survive a zombie apocalypse.

Puzzles

Fairly varied, though a colour light one at the start was rather frustrating.

Mise en scene

Possibly the most underwhelming of Compendium’s that I’ve played so far. It was a well laid-out dystopian lab- just a little cheap-looking in places. The commentary from Karen was just okay.

Final Comments

We got out in good time.

Scotus0 expert reviewed Turd Raiders and The Lost Golden Plunger by Compendium Escape Rooms:
Rated between 4 and 4 out of 5
Played: 21 Jun 2026 Team size: 5 Time taken: n/a Outcome: Successful escape!

I bought vouchers when they were running a sale and made a cheeky back-to-back booking.

Story

Infiltrate the Turd Burglars’ hideout and steal the Golden Turds and Plunger.

Puzzles

A satisfying selection of challenges that encouraged thinking, searching and teamwork.

Mise en scene

Dingy, grimy, decrepit- but spacious- perfectly fitting for a toilet-themed den!

Final Comments

I think we solved all but 2 of the puzzles and so got a respectable score! In terms of collection-based games, though, UI-55 had the edge.
