There were some really fun elements in this room. For a start, the Holy Grail felt like an original theme in the way it was handled. Then it was nice to see a lot of self-built mechanical puzzles that actually worked smoothly and added to the fun. 

A lot of tongue-in-cheek puzzles brought a lot of personality to the room, and it was really great to see an independent escape room create and build something so unique. It was a lovely experience that I recommended strongly to others in 2019.

A very different style game where it’s not all about padlocks. There is a lot of physical elements and thinking outside the box here. Theming was great with a nice couple of surprises along the way. 

Go in with an observant mind rather than expecting to find numbers everywhere. 

Definitely give this room a go when passing by

Reviews by escape room review sites

Having booked both games at Grand Escape, we'd originally scheduled Grail second, but the owners encouraged us to swap the two games round to start with Grail as an easier game. That turned out to be excellent advice, with Grail being an uncomplicated but pretty and enjoyable game to start our day with.

Rather than a setting from Arthurian legend, you are modern historians raiding a 12th century crypt that conceals the Grail - or something like that. In practice it's a cheerful mishmash of prop...
