Explore this untouched ancient world and uncover the mystery that is hidden within.

Can you find the energy source Grimhilde desperately need?

Really well put together, journey to Atlantis in the submarine, solve clues and return to the surface. It was really immersive and absolutely stunning scenery.

Amazing escape room. This is by far one of the best escape rooms I have ever done.

It was beautifully made and full of interesting parts. The set was lush and really made you feel part of the story.

This game was "Wow" from the moment the door opened. Incredible set(s) and sound made for the most immersive room I've played so far. It was really good fun and the couple of physical elements were quite manageable for us. Great variety in the puzzles (always happy when I'm not spending all my time working out 3 or 4 digit codes) though if I'm being ultra harsh, probably a little on the easy side. Sad that the site is being closed down and such an amazing game is leaving the UK!

Such fun from start to finish- lots of unique elements and some moments that allowed you to release the inner child! Felt super immersed from the moment we set aboard and loved how all the puzzles made sense to where we were / what we were doing. Easily my favourite at this venue and one of the better games I’ve done in a while!

A beautiful immersive and high tech set and quite a physical journey rather than typical escape room puzzles excellently presented. Glad we got to play before it closes

When we heard this venue was closing, we rushed over before it was too late. very glad we made the trip. One of the most high tech and immersive rooms ive seen, and not a single padlock, key or anything in sight. All automated, and everything worked. A shame its closing.

Reviews by escape room review sites

Atlantis ticked every box on my “Perfect Escape Room” list and then proceeded to blow my already high expectations out of the water (pun intended). In fact, I may even have new tick boxes to add to the list after our visit to Broadstairs. Honestly, if I were to pick a favourite game in the UK (possibly on the planet), it’s currently in Broadstairs.

We were told by numerous other enthusiasts upon booking that this is a “very physical game“. We gulped slightly, but sure, we’ve done crazy rooms before, how tough could it be? But, wow, this is a whole other level

Amazing hosts, great theme, immersive, beautifully designed with some great surprises. Very physical room!
