Games in Manchester by Lucardo Manchester
Most recent ratings & reviews from players
A decent room. On the hard side for sure. Fairly small room. 4 or 5 players may feel cramped. Lots to do. Locks galore. Good hosting
We keep giving Lucardo a chance as they’re local and very accessible but if you were travelling any distance to attend it really wouldn’t be worth it. Sadly another fairly uninspired experience with nothing original or unique. Much better options outside the city.
Description a bit misleading. Felt more like solving puzzles not related to theme.
Felt like 2 separate rooms, host had to come in halfway to open door.
Game of 2 halves not really connected.
Nothing done to solve murder.
Ending was anticlimactic.
On a positive note, there was a variety of puzzles and locks.
We suggest minimum 4 players given the number of puzzles in first room.
Red-Bland-ed
I bought a discounted voucher around Black Friday and redeemed it for a birthday escape with friends.
Story
Gather evidence to convict a serial killer before he returns to his cabin.
Puzzles
Straightforward. Uninspired. Common.
Mise en scene
Sufficient for a creepy cabin…but still very basic.
Final Comments
Even with the discount, this experience was overpriced. We broke out with over half the time left. Red-Handed is an unusually poor show from Lucardo and I look forward to it being replaced.
