It is your final year at the Royal Heist Academy.
I’m sure you’ve all dedicated time to preparing for this final exam, which will be marked based on your success.
But, for those of you who haven’t been paying attention for the past five years, I will explain your mission for today.
To pass this exam, you must steal the world’s most valuable crown from a highly protected bank, pretty simple, as long as you’ve remembered your class work and team-building, both of which are vital to achieving a good grade.
In your first year of studies, we discussed night robbing. Basic heist knowledge that you should be familiar with.
The guards inside this particular bank will be completing rounds within the building.
To help you, I have arranged an alert to be delivered to you whenever security is close by.
The time you have been given by the exam board is an hour, meaning you have that time to retrieve the crown or your submitted result will be a fail. Oh, and don’t forget about the other jewels you can find along the way. The crown is mandatory in order to pass, but gaining the other valuables will prove to me that you are worthy of a top of the class grade.

I always like a heist room, as they encourage you to make the most of your time instead of escape as quickly as possible, and make the most of our time we certainly did. One puzzle was genuinely unfair - it involves using a function of an item that you're not told that it has - but the rest were clever, inventive, and satisfying. Hopefully that one puzzle will be altered, but with that caveat, a terrific room.
The newest game at the venue and it's a heist! You have one objective and also bonus objectives (if you have the time). I really enjoyed this room, the puzzles were clever and relied on both observation, logic solving and some physical deduction.
Our GM was Sarah was excellent throughout and clued us just when we were getting a little frustrated.
This is a great little venue with superb hosting, with Escape Brum around the corner, this could form part of a great day out for enthusiasts.
It's fine, nothing mindblowing, very easy but our host's idea of giving us a clue was telling us how to solve the puzzle.
