It's time to play a game. Some people are so ungrateful to be alive. If you survive this room you won't be. One minute you are leading a normal life, going about your daily business, the next you are captured. You wake up in an abandoned basement with no idea how you got there. A video begins to play and the clock starts to count down. You have 60 minutes to escape, or your life will end.

This can be the first paragraph of your review, or a short summary, or left blank, as you prefer. Anything longer than a couple of lines may get truncated.
This room is themed around the idea of the Saw franchise. You are "captured" and have to solve puzzles to avoid your death (naturally!).
The build up to the room is intense with the theming outside of the room and entering blindfolded. However, the actual room is more creepy than scary. There are some body parts and blood on the walls, but that's just a standard night in Manchester...
There is a variety of puzzles, including sensory elements which is always a winner for Gemma. It is a padlock heavy room but gives you lots of satisfaction for opening them all.
The room is logical and has no major flaws, but if you're looking for a super horror-y room, you'll be left disappointed. This would be a good first room for dipping your toes into the immersive horror escape style game, but not for thrill seekers.
Brilliant room, probably my favourite from the company! The story really sets the scene and immerses you from the start. There are some really creative puzzles that I hadn't seen before which is always great! Give it a try. It does have a creepy theme, but nothing scary.
