The setting of this escape room was very different, being based on an old bus. It was a strong concept, wonderfully decorated and the hosting was good. However the puzzles were limited and quite simple. There were multiple moments where we all waiting  on someone to complete a single puzzle and no one could move on to anything else until it was done which somewhat impacted the flow and experience.

Idea was good but room very small and felt it lacked variation. Worth playing but not a memorable one for us.

Enjoyed this escape room, it was our first one so we weren't sure what to expect, the host was really good. Experience immersive, only criticism is that we would have liked it to be laid out in to different rooms but appreciate that's difficult with limited space and also this is quite expensive compared to others but still worth doing

Another fantastic escape room at M4 Escape. Tom, the game master was amazing! This experience was fully themed and immersive. Lots of challenges and puzzles for us all to get involved in. Would highly recommend!

Excellent non-linear room. Really good theme and well-built room. Very original.

Largely observational and physical puzzles - not much logic. Usually I wouldn’t be a fan of this, but in the case of Dino Deadlock that isn’t the case as the puzzles were made really well.

Would definitely rcommend!

The set on this one is fantastic, so much time and effort has gone into decorating the bus and it pays off. Kids will definitely enjoy it.

The puzzles are physical and can be time consuming so not ideal for a small team or if you prefer more logical puzzles.

This escape room is very original, based in a converted bus. All puzzles are on theme, mostly physical puzzles so great if if bringing small humans! We normally like more logic based and difficult puzzles but this room was so immersive would recommend for even veteran escape-roomies!

If you’re a fan of dinosaurs and escape rooms then this is a room you must try. A beautiful set, decent puzzles, and a really fun ending made our detour 100% worth it!
