Quite a disappointing room/experience. There were many broken puzzles/elements in the room, which in all looked quite tired and in need of some TLC. Puzzles were fine, but more explanation of objectives would’ve been nice. Not a fan, couldn’t engage well with the theming. Quite sure this room used to have a nautical theming and has just been reskinned
A decent room. Started strong, but puzzles became a little illogical towards the end. Just OK
Some puzzles elements required a lot of tweaking and we were even advised to use force to get them to work (!)
There are some truly satisfying puzzles to solve for everyone who's still a kid at heart.
This is a fun and exciting theme for families. I can see how the room is designed for entertain players of all ages, and it would hit its target a lot better if all puzzles worked a lot more smoothly.
The room has been designed specifically to sail on the Shakespeare's "brand", so to say. So, it feels a little contrived as it is basically an excuse to attach the label Shakespeare to a local escape room.
That being said, the game was pleasant enough, and while there were some moments of uncertainty (as the narrative and puzzle flow were not intuitive at times), our game master was quick to react. We had a lovely game master who cheered up us when we exited and said what she liked about our team (which I find so much better and more engaging than the usual approach of asking what I liked about the room when I've had zero time to actually think about it)
