An embarrassing incident earlier this year left world renowned scientist, Doctor Aquila Mind, red faced. Not taking the incident lightly, he has since been working on a machine that will erase the incident and all other memories from people’s minds.
His Assistant has seen the light and wants to put a stop to the Doctor's evil plans. He can't do this alone and so is recruiting spies of the highest calibre to put a halt to things, do you have what it takes to stop him, navigate his room and retrieve the trigger before the clock hits zero?

This room has promise, some great puzzels and good theming however our games master was less than helpful, they only gave us clues when it appeared to suit them which meant that when we got stuck we did not recieve the help needed.

Quite a traditional escape room, nothing special and a lot of the furniture and tech was tired and in need of a revamp. Fun way to spend an hour, but nothing that special.

A well structured room that can easily handle large team sizes. Puzzles are carefully set out to make the room feel as logical as possible. Just when you think things are going OK, the room's likely to hit back and, for smaller or inexperienced teams, leave you desperately short of time. Lots of searching, a couple of physical puzzles and plenty of padlocks to get past.
