Vvery fun escape room, was scary and lots to figure out Aswell as twist and turns within the game. Some very fun puzzles that i havent ever sone and Ben our game master was brilliant, he was bubbly and explained everything perfectly. He also made sure that any small niggles that we caused were sorted out without giving any clues!!
Overall brilliant experience
Olly was a great host of this fantastic game. Really clever puzzles and an immersive story with some innovative technical elements.
Another brilliant room from EO, providing an original nautical take compared to the more common "pirate"-themed escape room, and great use of thematically-appropriate puzzles and props. Good puzzle flow combining classic observation, association, communication, and some nice mechanical elements, a few lovely moments of surprise, brilliant hosting. Great stuff.
What an absolute joy. Honestly, this room should be used as a case study of how to make a "classic" escape room: a magical start, a good selection of logical, fair puzzles, moments of exploration, discovery, and surprise in great use of limited space, the gameplay flowed beautifully, the hosting was absolutely top notch, the tech was effective and discrete... I genuinely can't think of anything I would have changed. Brilliant.
Another great Escape room by EO.
As always Kelly is passionate about Escape rooms and your experience. The room is well designed, lovely fun puzzles to do which come at a steady pace. Lots of signposting to which key/solve opens what; this eliminates a common frustration with many escape rooms.
The theme was fun and doesn't require any music knowledge.The bonus 10 mins is handy, we got it but thankfully didn't need it.
On reflection there is a lot of tech in this one - remote switches, sliding things etc which makes it really memorable.
Would recommend!
Another fantastic game from Kelly and the team! Chock full of a variety of puzzles - fun and challenging for all ages!!
Very fun escape room, great theming and room design. Lots of puzzles to keep our team busy!
First escape room I played, fantastic puzzles, excellent room design
Fantastic, so many puzzles to keep the whole team occupied! High quality escape room.
A very fun escape case that is absolutely packed with puzzles. The theming and storyline are excellent. Puzzles flow very well.
What an incredible little escape experience. The full joy of an escape room in a smaller space. Immersive game, fun puzzles and a fabulous story.
Another amazing game at EO. Brilliant festive fun with a very unique storyline. A huge range of puzzles and wonderful theming.
A wonderful continuation from the previous Christmas room! Using the same character is a really magical touch that brings the games to life. Excellent theming made this stand out from other Christmas rooms. A pleasure to play.
Absolutely lovely Christmas room that uses the space so well. Tonnes of very clever puzzles.

A fantastic room, lots of fun! A one room space which with a plethora of various puzzles. The hosting is incredible across the entire team. Elevated the experience no end!
Very fun escape case. The theming was excellent and all of the puzzles linked incredibly well. The story was immersive and enjoyable.
Truly fabulous escape room. Everything about this room was exciting and fun. Such a joy to play and incredible hosts.
What a phenomenal escape case. This case kept us busy for the whole time. There is a huge variety of puzzles within this case and an immersive, fun theme throughout.
EO have done an incredible job creating this escape case! So many puzzles within this one bag. Such a fabulous idea and carried out perfectly. All the fun of an escape room within a bag.
A very very clever escape room with an exciting and unique start! Huge variety of puzzles and a wonderful space to explore!
First escape room I ever played! A wonderful and immersive set that is equally matched with fun puzzles.
A magical and fun escape room. Such an incredible use of the space. Lots of unique puzzles.
Absolutely brilliant room. Excellent theming throughout decorations and puzzles. Unique and exciting start to the game.
Another great game at EO. Lots of fun and laughter, brilliant immersive theming and exciting puzzles.
Fantastic escape room. Packed full of unique puzzles and excellent theming.
A unique and incredible escape room. Many many happy memories were made in Castaway! Such a gem of an escape room.
Get a group of friends together and enjoy this room! So much fun and brilliant hosting. Perfect for hen/stag dos or birthdays! Just think party!
A great room for family or friends. It’s A LOT of fun! Very clever and immersive. Wonderful hosting as always.
A fantastic room that was so original and beautiful. It was so much fun! A must play!
We love EO, this is our third escape room and Castaway is another clever puzzle from Kelly and the team. Thanks to Ben who was an excellent GM and made sure we were well immersed in the story. As ever it's a really fun room with a great theme and just the right degree of difficulty. Although our team was all adults, this would definitely be a good room for families. We'll definitely be back!
Great fun - loads of puzzles, theming is brilliant, we all had a great time. Another excellent game from EO.
A lot has been crammed into the small room that this game is in. All of the puzzles are up to Kelly’s usual excellent standard and there were a couple of nice moments throughout too. Nice to have a game designed specifically for smaller teams too!
Marauders Lair is the best game for familes, couples, newbies or enthusiats! There is something for everyone!
I actually played this alone and still had a blast. It's well signposted, beautifully built with some original puzzles and bits I havent seen before even nearly 300 games in!
Kelly always builds a stunning game with amazing puzzles.
Do not miss!
An absolute tour de force in fantasy escape gaming by EO, hosted with A-grade banter and hilarity by our excellent GM, Sam, my friend and I had a fantastic afternoon exploring Keyper's Secret.
From the very second the clock starts to tick down, you are immersed in this thoughtful and beautifully-themed room, with loads of engaging puzzles and original elements aplenty (I've completed >60 rooms and there were things here I've never come across before, which is always a treat!)
I have been an EO fan for several years; their brand of 'escape craft' is next level and always a joy to return to! There's a reason that these guys keep winning awards
The sequel to Backstage Reloaded which we played a couple of months ago. Really good fun and just the right level of difficulty, we loved the club theme and the poptastic soundtrack. Thanks again to Sam for being a brilliant gamesmaster!
Loved this room, the entry into the room was like nothing we had done before! Plenty of puzzles for everyone to do, and another great game! Hosting was amazing, we will be back to do more here !
Fantastic room, full of great puzzles and loved the props! Kelly was a fantastic host too, and made us feel very welcome
Clever little room. We enjoyed playing, it was definitely up to Kelly’s normal standard. We didn’t feel it lacked anything being a single room small space experience and it kept us thinking throughout. Plenty of puzzles to work out individually and together. Only annoyance is having to wait now for Kelly to build another room to play!
A simply fantastic room. EO did not disappoint again. So many puzzles, great sign posting and the usual great hosting by Kelly (& Sam).
We just completed the Castaway room at EO Escape in Sudbury and honestly, it was one of the best escape room experiences we’ve had.
The room itself was brilliantly designed immersive, clever, and perfectly challenging without ever feeling frustrating. Every puzzle flowed well into the next, and the whole experience kept us fully engaged from start to finish.
A huge part of what made it stand out, though, was our host, Sam. He was absolutely fantastic really funny, welcoming, and made everyone feel at ease straight away. His explanations were crystal clear, which meant we could jump straight into the game without any confusion. You can tell he genuinely enjoys what he does, and it made a big difference to the overall experience.
If you’re thinking of trying an escape room in Sudbury, this is 100% the place to go and if you get Sam as your host, you’re in for an even better time.
We’ll definitely be back!
Any room where I get to put my other half ‘in danger’ is always a win.
Great theming. The most intense of the three rooms we played in one day at EO. There’s a lot to do in this room but once we got into a flow it was very satisfying.
Love the puzzles. Some types I’ve not seen before that were great. And also really liked the way that it encourages you to work together.
Sam was a great host. We had a lot of fun!
Ingenious. Loved this room. Such clever use of space. The whole experience felt immersive from the very start. I was totally in the story from the moment the intro video started playing. It was the escape room I’ve played that most felt like I was in a different place mentally - it was joyful and I felt like I was exploring and discovering rather than ‘playing a room’.
The attesting is great, puzzles are all satisfying and you can feel the joy radiate from the room. Loved it.
What an incredibly joyful room. Full of great puzzles and wonderful surprises. I had a smile on my face the whole time. Love the way EO introduce each room with a video and then you’re right in there, in the thick of it. Loved the aesthetic of this room and all the puzzles felt satisfying. Highly recommend.
Kelly is so good at what she does and helped make this a delight. Utterly lovely person and passionate about her work.
Brilliant game as you help the band check to see if their producer could get past all their security details to steal the tape of their new album whilst they were performing on stage. Clever clues that tested your brain and you had to think outside of the box. Brilliant fun and brilliant hosting by the Games master Sam. Easy to book and good communication throughout.
This was our final room at EO with their current sets. I found this a really fun themed room. Definitely a nice way to spend the afternoon in a colourful musical environment. Fab hosting as always and we can’t wait to be back.
I put off doing this room as wasn’t sure how I would be in a scary room. But I should have trusted the fab team at EO to put a wonderful room together that was the right mixture of puzzles, story and a little bit of a jump but nothing that worried me! I was so immersed in the story and the puzzles and how clever the room was. We clicked with the puzzles and came out full of smiles!
First of all , Kelly who treated us was amazing and sold the story and so funny. She actully wanted to get to know everyone and was great at getting us hyped up ready to go.
The games was so much fun, we laughed so much and thanks to Kelly for the little tips. I highly recommend this to a family of all ages.
Another great room from EO. We played as part of a team building event with our company booking 4 rooms to play simultaneously. Credit to Kelly for pulling that together and hosting us all at once without any drop off in quality.
Keyper’s Secret was great fun, I was particularly taken by the start, loved the volume and variety of puzzles. I can see this room as being do-able as a pair but there was still plenty for a group of 5 to do. EO packed a lot into a relatively small space on this one. Strong recommendation.
Our first escape room, we had so much fun! A good challenge without being too frustrating, Sam was brilliant and made sure we got the most out of the game. Loved the theme, the effort and passion really comes through and helped with the immersion. We'll definitely be back!
Castaway is a great room for beginners and seasoned pros. It has a lovely flow of puzzles and there’s plenty of them. It’s one of the easier rooms we’ve done, but that could also be down to the fact we’ve done more now and are learning the ways of escape room puzzle design. But don’t let that put you off as it’s still a very enjoyable room.
The theming and build quality is what you’d expect from EO Escape Rooms. Well built, well designed and well run.
Always lovely to have Kelly as our Games Master, so passionate about escape rooms and puzzle design.
Great room. Strong recommendation.
We like the originality of the room’s design quirk.
One of the strongest positives for us was the fact the puzzles were very fair and logical with fair signposting of how to solve them. We got a little stuck at one point but that was due to us not looking properly. Some cool puzzle design features - the water based one was very clever!
Will be back to do the rest of the EO escape rooms.
Great fun. Very atmospheric and a few surprise jump scares, really well put together room.
EO's Christmas room has been a tradition for the past couple of years and this year's room, didn't disappoint. So much to do, we loved the theming of the room(s) and the puzzles. The continuation with Hourglass Escapes just added to the overall experience.
Just come back from playing this room and once again another fantastic room by Kel and the team. Great hosting as always, a lot of fun and some really nice puzzles. Something to do for all the family.
As ever Kelly has created a great Christmas room. Our family split into two teams and did the room consecutively. Kelly kindly let us do a games box whilst we waited for the other team to complete. Can’t fault EO and Kelly.
Brilliant Christmas fun with the Family!
Come for the puzzles but stay for the soundtrack. I was laughing so much at the lyrics that I could hardly solve a thing! They're EPIC!
Wonderfully themed room with lots to do. Immense fun!
Another fabulous Christmas room from EO. Lots to do and a great mix of puzzle types. Loved it.
A great soundtrack, puzzles and some fun interactions / elements make this a classic EO room. Good fun!
So much to do and such a fun theme. Love the connection between the two venues and the sheer range of ideas. Great to see an old space looking and feeling very different too. As with all EO games the signposting is superb and there’s a great range of ideas.
Collection games can be a bit hit or miss, but Joey’s Christmas Wish is brilliant. There’s plenty to do for a team of 4, and things that kids can also get involved with too. It’s more like a traditional escape room in its feel than some collection games, and you can see that thought has been put into the puzzles and theming even though it’s only a temporary game. Recommended!
Slightly easier than some of their other rooms, Backstage Reloaded is nonetheless fun with some great puzzles and quirky things to keep you entertained. As always, the tech just works and the hosting was great - Kelly (owner and GM) is ace and our GM for this game Sam was once again very entertaining. Recommended
As someone who enjoys fantasy theming Keyper’s Secret is absolutely on point. The start is fun, and there’s loads to do as always - you’re never short of a puzzle in EO rooms! Our host Sam was hilarious, and the whole experience was just fab. Recommended
We played Karma Club after Keyper’s Secret and have to say it’s just brilliant. The theme is madness, totally original, and all the puzzles are (once again) unique and clever. You can’t go wrong booking any of Kelly’s rooms, but this one is particularly fun. Highly recommended!
Traditional Christmas escape for us at EO! They never disappoint, room was well thought out with plenty of puzzles to do together or on your own. Smashed it as always folks!
Another excellent room from Kelly and the team, we are massive fans of all of EO rooms and this room did not disappoint. Some really great puzzles in here
A great thing with all of EO's rooms is that even with 4 of us playing there is always enough for us all to do.
Kelly is a great host and always has a great chat before and after the room.
Absolutely fantastic room as usual from EO, we loved it. Plenty to do in this room for a family of 4, enough to keep you all busy. Room flowed. Lots of fun puzzles to do and really got your mind working. All of EO rooms are well thought out and we always enjoy them.
Great Christmas room, collection game so love the idea that you get your whole hour or hour and ten if you are lucky!
Awesome room with a really clever twist, a must do, sorry review is brief, but it was a while ago when we played, but sticks in my head as being awesome
Great room with some hidden surprises
Great collection game. First one we tried and we loved it. Lots of mini puzzles and loads to do for everyone. Clever creative puzzles and keeps us all busy in the room. Good fun for all of us gm included!
Great story and great props. The set never disappoints. Such creativity and time is clearly put in to the games. Great puzzles and lots to do!
Great set. Clever puzzles. So much fun. Always keeping us guessing. Some crawling involved and a jump scare! So much fun. Loved it
Great fun game. Cool set. Some great puzzles as always. Eo always delivers some fabulous games. Everyone had a laugh the gm included
Loved this room so much I played it twice! First room played and didn't make it the first time but escaped the 2nd. Lots of cool puzzles and various areas to explore. Had a good laugh. Couldn't recommend enough. Started my love of escape rooms. The First escape room and now many more to come!!!
Love this game. Has some cool elements not seen before. Cool fairly tale story and worth playing. Highly recommended. Cool set and great puzzles as always. The Climbing is unique! Awesome room guys
Great family room. Some easier puzzles but some require some real thought. Fantastic room especially for those starting out escape rooms. Love the set and the props. 10/10 for originality. Puzzles are unique and story line is cool too!
Great game from eo. They never disappoint in bringing a great experience with various puzzles. Always creative puzzles and they keep us guessing each time. Some clever minds behind all the games and the puzzles. Great hosts and looking forward to the next room they create!
Another amazing room from Kelly and the gang. We are absolutely massive fans of all of their rooms and this one did not disappoint. Some really cool innovative puzzles in here that had us all very excited. Although this is my first review on ETR, our team of 4 are becoming reasonably experienced escapologists now and to show us a puzzle or technique that we haven't come across before is always a treat!
Another great thing about EO's rooms is that even as a team of 4 there is rarely nothing to do. So many other rooms are very linear and mean that often people are standing around waiting for the next bottleneck puzzle to be solved - never the case here, there's always a different challenge and we often find ourselves pairing off to pursue completely different routes.
The charm level, as-ever with these completely bespoke scratchbuilt sets at EO is top tier, with Easter Eggs galore from previous Christmas rooms, great uses of tech - and although they have managed to reuse elements that we recognise, they have been completely repurposed in new ways so it isn't just a repeat of the same things.
Kelly as always was the best host ever, we always have a great chat before and after the room.
Can't wait to see what Joey gets up to next year!
the annual Christmas game is a tradition at EO, and having played one half at Hourglass the previous day, we were looking forward to this and it did not disappoint. This is a non-linear collection game where parties can split up and work on puzzles independently as you try and find all of the christmas wishes as well as Joey's bonus wish. Full of the trademark EO humour and hosted excellently, this is one christmas wish I would make again.
EO have become one of my favourite escape venues with their clever stories and puzzle design. This acts as a prequel to The Karma Club and carries on similar themes.
Worth a trip to Suffolk. Great hosting by Kelly. Fantastic design & good storyline. Another good solid game
Another great room from EO Escapes. Lots to do in this room. Great theming & affects. Put on your dancing shoes & give it a go
EO escapes is well worth a visit. Very good games & a very enthusiastic owner. All rooms flow well & make sense.
We all really enjoyed this. There is climbing and dine crawling involved.
My partner and I have completing most of Kelly’s escape rooms. We have played many many escape rooms, including Amsterdam, and she really has the best rooms. They’re clever, they make sense, have many different types of codes and locks - I would recommend to anyone.
What would we do at Christmas without an EO escape room featuring Joey!?! We love the Christmas rooms here and particularly love a collection room. There was so much to do and great theming and puzzles. Another fab EO room!
Another superb game from Kelly and Co. Jam packed full of puzzles, all well signposted, and logical. Varying levels of difficulty so that it's fun for all the family. Some very fun tech elements too! Challenging enough to keep 3 experienced escapers busy for most of their allotted time.
A fantastically good room, once of the best "retro" rooms we've done. So many puzzles (in traditional EO style), but all really on point (themed to the room).
Would highly recommend to big and small teams, and both new and experienced escapers. You will not be disappointed.
Great sound track with great puzzles! Definitely one of my top escape rooms! Was lots of fun, highly recommended!
We loved this room! Was great fun for the whole family - lots of clever puzzles and our kids really got involved and enjoyed it! Great way to get into the Christmas spirit 🎅
As always EO fails to disappoint. Amazing game, very well written and bought to life. Hosting by Kelly is always a pleasure. Best family run escape room in the east of England in our opinion by far!!
We had the pleasure of play testing Joeys Christmas Wish - this game is jam packed with puzzles and you are tasked with collecting as many Christmas Wishes as possible in the time given - plus the addition 10 minutes if you can pass the bonus puzzle of course.
Elves, snowballs, magic, kitty cats, gifts a plenty and so much more will keep you all super busy in this amazing game. A 10/10 game which you should not miss!!
40/40 wishes achieved and a great time had by all.
Backstage (Reloaded) is another brilliant game from EO. More fantastic puzzles with original and quirky ideas - with a bit of fun and magic thrown in as always! We played as 2 adults and a 6 year old and we all had a lot of fun and enjoyed showing our strengths in various areas with a boogie along the way too!
Highly recommended!
We love our visits to EO and was happy to have Kelly hosting us this evening. This was such a lovely room and everything just makes sense and has some really lovely touches. Lots for all of us to get on with and great theming. Our 11 yr old in particular loved the EO experience. We look forward to our next visit!
A brilliant game with a quirky element to its design that we loved.
This room was great fun, lots of different puzzle and padlocks that flowed well for our team.
Suitable for beginners, families and enthusiasts
Strong theme, tidy props, and a flow that makes sense from first open to final reveal.
For a "pop-up/micro" (30 minute) game, it was fantastic. The puzzles just flowed, and it's amazing what they could get done in such as small space. Of course, with the usual great hosting by Kodi.
We all really enjoyed Scary Tale! As we’re all still escape room noobs we had a bit of a slow start but with the help of a few clues we started to find our rhythm and managed to escape! It was a great experience and EO is a great place to go if you’re new to escape rooms like us or even the seasoned veterans. All the hosts are extremely friendly and they really take time to get to know you and it puts you at ease immediately. Would 110% recommend scary tale and can’t wait to try out the other rooms that EO has to offer!
EO always have amazing settings that really elevate the experience. Whilst we did the mini puzzle for the extra 10 minutes we didn't end up needing it. With minimal clues we're were able to make our escape.
This is our 3rd game at EO and we had an amazing time
It's starts off with a fun interesting twist and keeps this up throughout the rest of the game.
Puzzles flow well and we only got stuck since we missed something. With only a team of 2 we didn't feel overwhelmed.
We have always enjoyed our games here and the hosts are always really friendly! Starting the game last since we're chatting too much about escaperooms shows their passion.
Had an absolutely brilliant time in the Castaway Escape Room at EO Sudbury! Really had you thinking from start to finish. Lily our GM was great and really enthusiastic! 5 stars, can’t wait to do our next one!
Having been before to do scary tale we knew this would be another great room by Kelly and the gang. Extremely immersive right from the start (which is something EO does very well) the set and decor was amazing and very true to the story. There was plenty of content for 2 of us to get through and some fun mechanics of the room (not to give spoilers!). Highly recommend this room and we will return to do their other rooms in due course!
Fantastic room, really great hosts and fun room design. We made a mistake with our booking (our fault) and they were able to move things around last minute to accommodate us. The room itself was really clever, with several areas to acess. There are loads of locks and puzzles to figure out, which was really fun, and even with 5 of us, there was still plenty for us all to do without having to wait around, or all work on one thing. All EO rooms are brilliant, and this is one of the best ones (captive still one of my all time favourites).
Kodi was brilliant as always, and gave really good feedback afterwards.
1000% would recommend.
We've been recommended EO by various other escape room owners around Suffolk - and I'm so pleased we finally got to see what all the buzz is about! Our host Kodi was friendly, funny and so enthusiastic about the room and the other games on offer there. Thanks for a great game Kodi! 🙂
The room was very intricately decorated, and absolutely chock full of well-crafted puzzles - it's not a huge space, but the volume of content in there is amazing! Our team of three was kept busy the whole time and no one felt like they were at a loose end. A really well designed game all around! Can't wait to come back and try the next! 🙂
Hands on. Nice touches.
Busy, almost frantic at times. Lots to do.
Lots of fun from start to finish!
Nice set. Good sign posting.
Great set. Great GM.
Superb storytelling, wonderful host (Kelly), creative, fun and scary. My first time at EO and one of the best! Will be back.
We had an impromptu game of the great eggscape. We were lucky as still running and asked if we could play. Kelly was very accommodating. So glad we did, it was great fun. A brave concept to play a split game for nearly half the time. One of the best games of the day for us.
Our third game was Castaway.
I loved the look of this game, it’s very clever at hiding details and it just unravels as you keep looking. You think you’ve looked everywhere and there is still more to find. Loved the challenge.
Just make sure you shuffle.
Our second game of the day. We loved the start of the game but our observational skills let us down a couple of times. Once we found our flow, we started to race through the puzzles. Eo really know how to make a puzzle fest and love the optional 10 minute puzzles too. Great game.
We were fortunate enough to have Kelly GM our games for the day and she was wonderful. She was really engaging and has a great team around her. Their love for escape rooms really comes through.
We stayed our day with this game and was warned there was a lot to do as a two. We loved it and ended up being top of the bill for us. There is so much to do and can be overwhelming but we embraced the chaos.
The personal touches with the quotes is genius.
We knew we were in for a treat for the rest of the games.
This room is enchanting, where you can become spellbound by its puzzles. The magic behind the story will unlock the inner child within you, as you seek to break a terrible curse.
As you progress on your adventure, all your inner wishes will come true. Unlocking enjoyment, happiness and fullfillment. The host are amazing and friendly, where they hex you into falling in love with their games.
Highly recommend for beginners or veterans. Suitable for all ages.
This escape room is truly amazing. Where else can you go to solve puzzles, whilst gaining the experience of a 60s night club.
I can assure you there was plenty of singing and dancing whilst we solved puzzles. The room is interactive and fun. Highly recommend for all, whether it be for a date night, or a family get together. This room caters for all!
Very enjoyable game - lots of puzzles, some very original moments, loved the start of the game. This is a great venue with excellent hosting - love the little touches that elevate the puzzles to something special.
Managed to catch this just before it closed - excellent split start and plenty of puzzles to do. Great family fun!
This room is closing shortly and I’m not sure why it took us so long to play it. So much fun and lots for us to do including the ten year old with us. Love the puzzles and hosting at EO. Always recommended as a great location to visit. Kodi was a fab GM today.
Have to first compliment the lovely hosts at EO who were very gracious and friendly, and we had a nice chat about other rooms we'd done. This room had good strong theming, even from outside the room before entering. There was clearly a lot to in the room, with some added surprises during the time. It was nice to be able to win some bonus time for the room - without it we would have been tight on making it out!
Nice start to the game and unique puzzles. Creepy but nothing too scary. One person does have to crawl into a small confined space.
Disappointed in the amount of 3D printed items in these games, it didn't seem necessary and took you out of the vibe a little bit.
Kodi was a great host, escape room was brilliant, all in all a great experience.. will definitely be doing another one here!
Throughly enjoyed this room, played with ages from 9-40. Lots of fun with some very clever puzzles. Thank you to our ‘seagull’ Sam, fantastic host. Will defiantly come again.
We had to get to this one before it closed which we just managed! So glad we did and wow what a ride! So many padlocks in there I'll be dreaming about them tonight! Amazing mix of puzzles, a full hour of on the go communicating, running about, solving and unlocking with some amazing twists and fun moments we've come to expect of EO. Wonderful hosting by Lily and a lovely way to extend Christmas by hearing all those songs just one last time. In February 😂.
I’ll start by saying that this game is by far the most physical of all the ones at EO, but trust me, it’s absolutely worth it for the incredible payoff.
Honestly, I’m not sure what else to add because, with EO, you already know what to expect – no matter which game you book, you’re guaranteed to have a fantastic time. The creativity and imagination behind their puzzles are always top-notch, and this game is no exception. It’s packed with unique and clever challenges that really make you think, all within a wonderfully designed set that draws you in from the moment you step inside.
The Keyper's Secret is filled with some lovely surprises, and it’s hard to say much more without giving too much away. The last thing I want to do is spoil the magic of it. Suffice to say, it’s an experience you won’t want to miss. If you’re looking for a fun and memorable adventure, this is definitely one to check out.
Wow... wow... wow... This game is absolutely fantastic and, without a doubt, my personal favourite of all the games here. It’s clear that so much love and care went into its creation, and it features so many delightful moments that make it truly remarkable. The game offers a wonderfully charming set that exudes a lovely homemade feel, which I absolutely adore. You’ll find yourself right at the heart of the hottest spot in town – ‘The Karma Club’.
Your mission is to retrieve your golden record before the hour is up... all while resisting the urge to dance to the hilariously cheesy club music (and when I say cheesy, I mean seriously strong cheese – think Pop World meets puzzles).
Just play this game. It’s so much fun and deserves so much more love. The puzzles are truly unique.
Once again, EO has delivered another brilliant room! This team truly excels at creating clever and unique games, and this one was no exception. It was an absolute joy to play. I particularly loved the separate starting point – it was even more enjoyable that, despite starting apart, you still had to work together to achieve a shared goal. It was a refreshing change from the typical "locked away" start you often see in other rooms.
This game was just fantastic – there’s so much to do, and I loved that it offered both a main task and a side quest, making it feel like you really get your money’s worth. The puzzles were, as always, a delight to solve. It’s such a shame this room is closing – it's one that isn’t just perfect for Easter, but could be enjoyed all year round! If you get the chance, please go play it!
Wow, what an incredibly fun game to play! I absolutely loved how frantic it was and how much there was to solve. The game itself is beautifully designed, and it's a real shame it's closing soon. However, I'm so glad we managed to experience it before it ended, as it features some truly stunning moments. As I've mentioned in previous reviews, there are plenty of those "kick me" moments I adore – those moments when you've been approaching something the wrong way, and suddenly the lightbulb in your head turns on and you think, "Ah, of course!" This game is brilliant for that.
It also offers such a unique twist on a Christmas-themed game, moving away from the typical "saving Christmas for Santa to deliver presents" storyline. What I really appreciated was how it was clear that everyone involved in creating this room had a great time, putting their heart into building it and coming up with the puzzles.
By the end of it, you’ll likely find yourself shouting “WILSON!” just like the iconic scene from the film. Be sure to wear your best socks, as shoes aren’t allowed! The reason behind this quickly becomes clear upon entering, adding to the immersion and making the experience all the more memorable.
In summary, this is a cleverly designed, immersive escape room with a unique theme and fantastic puzzles. It’s a must-try for fans of Castaway and escape room enthusiasts alike!
Although horror games aren't usually my thing, I can say I bravely ventured into this one. While I may not have been the most useful player, there were some truly lovely moments throughout. The theme is dark and macabre, reminiscent of a collaboration between the Brothers Grimm and a certain well-known American figure with a famous mouse, offering a creepy or alternative twist on their work. It was a real delight to play, and I encountered some unique elements I've not seen before in a game room.
The game does feature jump scares, but they come in the form of mechanical surprises, which you trigger yourself unknowingly (without spoiling anything, hopefully this reassures potential players). As I had anticipated the typical jump scares with witches screaming or loud sound effects, but this game doesn't rely on those.
It's a fun experience for anyone to try and could be a great introduction for those interested in horror-themed rooms. It's not likely to leave you terrified, but it does an excellent job of building suspense in a delightful way. A truly unique and fun game!
Sam was amazing, I throughly enjoyed and am I now booking the next one
Sam was superb, now booking our next!!
Probably the best executed split start I've played (and I'm a sucker for a split start), brilliant puns and logical puzzles to boot.
Neat collection system with plenty of signposting for the 30 odd locks in the room.
We had the dynamic duo of Kelly and new GM Sam and couldn't have asked for anything else from them 🙂
EO keep smashing it, and this time with a wonderful padlock-heavy room! A great use of the old scarlet space. Great hosting as always, thanks Kelly!
Get down to play this before Joey runs away again in Feb
Lots of puzzles to keep you busy. Great hosting. Ingenious concept that I’ve never seen before. It definitely stands out from other games. I would say it’s a great escape room for first timers too.
Yet another great game from the team at EO. Lots to do and a huge variety of puzzles to go with it.
Another great EO room, well thought out and creatively made. Kodi is a brilliant games master, which is not surprising as she learned from the best! We played it as a group of six and there was plenty of for everyone to do and could work independently and together to solve the puzzles.
A simply fantastic Christmas room with great hosting by (Kelly). There were so many puzzles, it was none stop, great sign posting providing a really nice flow.
Brilliant room with lots going on! Who doesn’t love a Christmas theme! Kids absolutely loved it. Kodi was great! Confident, helpful, friendly and made the experience fun! 10/10
We love EO Escape rooms and this one was just perfect. Lots of puzzles to save the elf’s but they all made sense and we could be working on different puzzles at the same time. Loved the theming, the humour and the game.
Amazing room and completely different to Scarlet the original room which it was. Kodi was fantastic at hosting and really helped get us into the Christmas spirit. We completed the room as a team of 2 and we were non stop throughout, the puzzles were extremely fun and there was so much tension and exhilaration throughout the whole time. We recommend everyone to do this for a good Christmas room this season.
We love EO's Christmas rooms. I am continually impressed by their re-use of space from old games, and this was no exception.
The story this year involves Joey reappearing and more Christmas shenanigans. This game really played to our strengths as a team - very non-linear and a huge variety of puzzles.
As with other EO games, we really liked the addition of a second objective once the main one was completed, and the method of delivery for this made the game even more magical and enjoyable.
EO is a must-visit for us as soon as they open a new game.
Despite how it sounds, this isn't really an Easter room, but the theme and the context are very original and the sense of humour is evident throughout the room!
The space has been re-used really well and the separate start was done so that neither of us ever felt like a spare part.
Having a second objective after we completed the main objective was good fun and added an extra layer to an already great room.
Thoroughly recommended!
The magic of Christmas has once again arrived at EO Escapes and as expected Kelly has created another amazing room.
Joey is back - this time with a great collection style game (which I LOVE) it means you cannot fail, with the added element that YOU are in control of stopping the clock this game is perfect for enthusiats, beginners, familys - everyone.
Great signposting, themeing and some fun puzzles to get stuck into - DO NOT Miss this game this festive season - bookings are open now and I expect they'll fill up fast!
Don’t miss! Fantastic hosting by Cody.
Don’t decide not to book because it’s an Easter game, it was so much fun. A team of two as always adds a bit of challenge but is doable. EO rooms are always so so good.
Scary Tale was awesome and is still in our top five rooms - we loved it with its suitably creepy dark/atmospheric theming. There’s a lot in this room with a combination of well placed tech and padlocks and puzzles that just make sense. We escaped as an experienced two with time to spare, but as with all the rooms at EO you get a lot for your money and inexperienced players might benefit from having three+ in the room. Recommended.
This was the first of EO’s rooms we played and it was brilliant. The concept and how it’s implemented is really clever - no spoilers but I’ve still never seen another room quite like it, and there’s a lot of seamless tech that fits the theme too. I played with someone who’d never done a room before and took the lead, but we still got out with a little time to spare. As with all Kelly’s rooms, inexperienced players might benefit from having a team of three or more, but the puzzles all flow and make logical sense. Recommended.
Kelly’s rooms are always great (everything is designed in house), and it’s a shame Scarlet is closing as we had an awesome time playing it. As always the tech is on point, though this room is more padlock heavy than some of her others, and the theming was great. Can definitely be played with two, but inexperienced players might benefit from having three or four. Recommended!
It's such a shame this room is being retired!! There are several unique puzzles, and the theming is *chefs kiss*. The team at EO have done a great job with the set build, and puzzle design, and there's several elements you won't see anywhere else. A really clever room that I'd encourage everyone to play before it's gone!
A really FUN room! Lots of great props, and a really original use of the space (IYKYK). Plenty of puzzles to keep us busy, the game flowed beautifully, and the enthusiasm of the owners is infectious.
So much fun and really felt like we were in a dodgy nightclub. A lot to do and we were a bit frantic working it all out but that is all part of the fun. Excellent hosting.
Such a fun and silly game! Loads of egg-cellent puns throughout and so many unique puzzles and ideas that were egg-ceptionally clever! We enjoyed the fact that there was a main goal and a very clear secondary objective as well. Whilst I didn't fully get parts of the story, it really didn't matter, it really didn't matter as the flow of solving was so good and the puzzles were great as always. This is probably my second favourite game at EO (Karma holds the top spot).
Loads of cool and quirky elements to this game which elevated the play experience. The set looked beautiful and was really fun to explore. As always with EO, there was a great range of unique puzzles and some clever versions of more standard puzzle types too.
Wow, amazing room , kodi was the best host she was informative and fun, the room was the right amount of challenge, fun and scary. Definitely worth a play. Another massine thank you to Kodi to making this game Fantastic 🥰
A wonderfully creative use of space with plenty to do and a very impressive range of invention when it comes to puzzle-design. It's the kind of room that is full of lovely 'little bits' that just adds to that notion that someone who really loves escape rooms designed this escape room... Nothing brings more joy to me than opening a box to find more smaller boxes inside, each of them locked shut with a different kind of padlock.
EO is a lovely place run by people who care; your experience really matters to them and that's really clear in how their games are designed and the experience they offer. It's a bit hot in this room... so before we tackled our next room, we were given cold bottles of water. We were doing three rooms... so Kelly tried to arrange it so we didn't have to wait long in between games, even though they were busy. It's a lovely, family-run venue and we will certainly be back to play the games we couldn't fit in this time.
Fun, physicality and a lovely bunch of quirky puzzles await you on this castaway island and the EO team evidently enjoy thinking of inventive ways to create new experiences within their escape rooms. The flow of puzzles was top-notch and there were plenty of original elements that kept us on our toes. Our GM, Lily, was a delight and ran the game with just the right balance of being available for clues but not nudging when not needed. A great room in a venue that's full of great rooms.
To put it in a (nut)shell, this is an absolutely cracking game that takes eggs-ellent puzzle design, a whole clutch of truly eggs-eptional egg-based puns and a very cute little bunny rabbit, mixes them together into one delicious omelette of puzzle-solving fun and delivers that mad scramble of delight that one only gets from a proper padlocky puzzle-fest (and yes, every single egg pun is entirely intentional).
This is not an Easter-themed game, although it absolutely could be played as one if that's what you fancy; this is an adorable, frantic fever-dream that has been created with an immense amount of care by Kelly and the team at EO and that we simply didn't want to end.
The split-start is a super way to begin and - although it doesn't have much to do with eggs, bunnies or a delightful spring garden - it really doesn't matter. The puzzles are plentiful and, as with the best split-starts, communication is key. Once into the garden, our main quest was to rescue Edgar the bunny but our side quest had us cracking open a plethora of padlocks to collect a clutch of eggs.
Fancy tech and movie-standard sets are great and all but we're the type of enthusiasts who want to be faced with a giant wall of padlocks. Chatting to Kelly - one of the owners - after the game, it became very clear that we share that preference: that sweet *clunk* of a padlock as you get the right code... the cheeky thrill of a cipher and letter lock combination... the delight when the directional padlock opens first time and there's no double-clicking for you as you sail on through to the next puzzle... That, for us, makes an enjoyable escape room. If we find ourselves actively stopping each other in a room to remark on just how much fun we're having then we know we're onto a winner.
Ratings and reviews are so subjective but if it's fun you're after, them embrace the madness and go and rescue poor Edgar!
Really creative and immersive, the puzzles were super fun and amazing host!
Don't let the Easter theming put you off, there's a lot to like here. It does feature a split start and communication is very much the key (you start in the same space as Captive). The puzzles are a combination and show very much EO's flair for puzzle design. Sign posting is very good and it's only rarely we were seemingly stuck before spotting something we had missed. As with EO's other games there is also a bonus element so once you've rescued Edgar you can then complete a series of bonus puzzles before finishing the game. Our hosts were Kelly and Kodi and were fantastic throughout. EO really has become one of my favourite venues for both their game design and approach to games. It might not be as clever as the rest of the games here but it's still very much worth your time.
This was our third room of the day and possibly my favourite of the 3, although they were all fantastic. This was so much fun and had extra elements other than just puzzles (we definitely wished we had the children with us in here). Fab hosting, really clever puzzles and amazing theming again. We can't wait to go back and attempt the other rooms!
Second room of the day here and this one did not disappoint either. A chaotic room, in the best possible way, as in there was loads to do! Definitely a bit more a challenge with just 2 of us, but still managed a successful escape. Again the hosts were incredible and the theming was spot on. Another super fun, well designed room.
Took a drive out to Sudbury to try 3 of these highly rated rooms and this one certainly did not disappoint. The 3 ladies hosting were all lovely and clearly loved their work. The theming of this room is spectacular and the puzzles were varied and fun. Really enjoyed this one.
This was our first EO room, and the whole no shoes thing was intriguing but made total sense when we got in there. Some unique and interesting puzzles, but of all the EO rooms we have done, this is the one that we felt the most disconnected from, some of the puzzles were simpler than we realised and we over thought and wasted a bit of time. We had a great time but there was some frustration which was entirely our own fault - learned a lesson not to over think stuff.
A fun room with a split start, with some clever and unique collaboration puzzles between the two starting rooms. The main area of the room is really fun, well themed and again with lots of fun puzzles and a heist style 'puzzle' dump at the end gave a really fun tense suspenseful ending.
I was nervous going into this, having always avoided 'scary/creepy/horror' rooms, and having one bad experience in the past, I was apprehensive, but I didn't need to be. The hosting was respectful, no gratuitous jumpscares or distractions, so you were free to get on with the puzzle solving without too much fear. A great room in its own right, with great theming and hosting.
Great room with a great start, some interesting unique puzzles, some nice surprises and great hosting from an absolute escape room addict, overflowing with escape room passion and care.
Just finished this room with 22.59 remaining! Genuinely an unmissable room, lots of locks and puzzles and loads to do. This is the 4th room at EO that we have done and this is probably our favourite room of all time. Hosts are great also. Scarlett closes in Sept so if you haven't done it yet, make sure to do so before you miss out on a great room!
My favourite room of all time (so far).
Really clever design and so much fun!
Wow, what an adventure. There was definitely a sense of sensory overload in this room, but in the best way possible! This was a really fun game and another outstanding effort from EO! Can't wait for the next adventure!
We don't want to ruin the surprise so we can't say much more, so we'll just say this... WELL DONE EO!
It’s very immersive with so many puzzles. Some very clever design, with amazing theming throughout makes it a really enjoyable room to play! Plenty of “ah ha” moments when you piece together clues and puzzles over time.
Our games master Kelly, also the owner and designer of all games at EO, was great as always. Her passion for escape rooms comes out in waves and it’s brilliantly channeled in to exciting and epic games.
This room feels really immersive and is in quite a big space which encourages teamwork.
Do you like locks? If yes, play this room. If no; Do you like great puzzles; Yes - Play this room. No - What are you doing looking at escape rooms /s ?
Now for the actual review bit:For a room transformed from captive in just 6 weeks, boy has Kelly and her team smashed it. An absolute metric ton worth of puzzles, all logical with the right level of signposting. The set was great and the room is actually bigger than its predecessor Captive by utilising a little extra space, which the team have done very well indeed. All set dressing felt in theme (apart from a couple of rogue red splatters from Captive on the ceiling but you need to leave nods to past rooms in there somewhere!)
Now..... this is the part that really screams that this is a good room. One of the locks was left unlocked on the right code for our game. Mistakes happen. The fact that I looked around (knowing the code) and knew exactly how I would get to it straight away meant that it didn't hinder the experience at all. In other rooms this would have been a deal-breaker but not at EO. Let's be honest we all forgot about it anyway, that's how good the rooms are.Whilst none of us did a "Kelly" (and we need to make this a phrase known across the community, not just at EO!!!!), we had some d'oh moments but only due to our own fault of not seeing the obvious!Massive shout-out to Kelly, Kodi and Lily for hosting us, there's something lovely about your style of hosting which other locations miss - straight forward, to the point and friendly.
This was our first game we played at EO and we knew we were onto something special! A really well designed room - great theming, interesting puzzles and an interesting story. One puzzle that I've not seen in another room to this day! Definitely worth playing any game here.
My partner and I love the games at EO and we were looking forward to coming back to play this one when it had opened. Despite not being our favourite kind of theme, we enjoyed the game. As always, there was a good variety of puzzles and a great atmosphere. Well worth a visit!
Another great experience with EO. Having played all their previous games - two of which used this exact space - I was really impressed with the re-theme, it felt like a completely different game! The other pleasant surprise was the beginning of the game, but I'll say no more about that.
EO cannot be faulted for their fantastic experiences!
We thoroughly enjoyed Letters to Santa - EO's Christmas game last year, so we were looking forward to going back this year for Joey's Revenge. The game certainly kept us busy with interesting puzzles requiring a lot of teamwork.
It was interesting to see the re-use of the space from Captive, the previous game, but if you'd not played it, you wouldn't be any the wiser.
As always, it was a pleasure to see Kelly and visit EO, and we look forward to coming back when their new games are open!
We can't fault the games at EO - this wasn't the first one we played, and there's a reason we came back. As always, superb hosting from Kelly and it was great to have a chat about her experiences. Scary Tale has been well made, a variety of interesting puzzles and incredibly well decorated. Great for enthusiasts and beginners alike!
From the moment the game starts, you know things are going to be out of the ordinary. A grimm twist on classic fairytales, with really smart use of the set & puzzles to bring the stories to life.
Scare-wise, a few creepy elements and one or two jump-scares, so don't let the scariness put you off of this great room.
As always, great concept and execution, and great hosting from EO.
Absolutely brilliant once again! Kelly at EO shows why she is the GOAT of escape room Games Masters. We took the whole family (6 of us) and there was plenty for everyone to do. We really enjoyed it and are sad we have done all EO’s rooms, looking forward to when she creates the next new one so we can go back!
The Keepers Secret's at EO Escape was an enchanting adventure! The room's fairy tale vibes and clever puzzles made the quest feel like unlocking a storybook. Thanks to Kelly's helpful hints, breaking the spell was a triumph that left our group feeling happily-ever-after. Really clever room.
Scarlet was a blast! The room had cool jungle vibes, and the puzzles were like a treasure hunt for our feathered friend. Our game guide, Kelly, was really great, making the whole adventure even more fun. Five stars for a really good room mixing logical puzzles with skill tasks.
The Castaway escape room at EO Escape was like being on a cool desert island adventure. The room looked awesome with some incredible props making it feel real. The puzzles were tricky but fun. Our game guide, Kelly, helped us at just the right times, making the game super exciting. When we finally escaped, it felt like a big win. If you want a fun escape room that is really immersive definitely check out Castaway!
EO Escape's Karma Club room was an absolute blast! The lively atmosphere, decked out with neon lights and funky decor, created a really fun evening - it felt like we were on a night out! Guided by Kelly the GM, the puzzles seamlessly merged brain teasers with dance-floor vibes. The grand finale, accompanied by disco lights and music, capped off the night with an exhilarating twist. A really good escape room experience that was different from other rooms we've played and a great mix of puzzles and a party feel. Although we didn't get out - it was really good fun.
Scary Tale escape room at EO Escape was super fun! The room's design made it feel like we were in a magical story, and the puzzles were like cool challenges from a fairy tale. Our game master, Kelly, was awesome and helped us with hints in a fun way. She made the whole adventure more exciting. The puzzles were really fun, and when we solved the last one, it felt like a magical ending to our fairy tale journey. Definitely recommend!
Great fun! Accessable for an 8yo yet challenging for a 45yo. EO have done it again!
Brilliant escape room. Different to the rest of the escape rooms we’ve played with lots to do pleased the whole family
Another amazing room from EO. Very well thought out and great fun. We've played a lot of games and EO have some of our favourite rooms! The story was great and well worth a play.
A brilliant escape room, played two today for my birthday. On the leader board for this one! Woohoo! You know when you come to EO you're going to have a great time and experience. The puzzles are well thought you, you can tell planning and testing has been thorough. A great room!
Brilliant and original escape room from EO. We'll thought out and great fun to play. Highly recommended! Great for a group of friends, colleagues or family.
Another stellar game from EO. Well thought out, intuitive puzzles, great level of difficulty that anyone can play whether you've escape roomed before or not. Kelly and her team and highly recommended. Great hosts.
Yet another absolutely fabulous room from Kelly and the team. Our little one LOVED this game, so much she could do and get involved in (and who doesnt love an elf?) lot's of unique, fun puzzles again and I just love all of EO's games, they're all so different and fun you'll never leave disappointed.
10/10
Our first ever Christmas room and it did not disappoint! The theme follows on from last year's room which unfortunately we did not get around to playing (I am heartbroken to have missed an EO room) but we could still follow the story as Kelly the GM got us up to speed on what had happened previously so we could immerse ourselves into the magical Christmas room. The room was fairly straightforward but some puzzles were staring us in the face and we just couldn't figure them out. Great hosting, great theme, great puzzles. Spectacular room!
Scarlet is a staple at EO and the room I tell everyone to play if they are new to escape rooms. It's very straightforward but definitely NOT boring! It's an incredible looking room with amazing puzzles
Another great looking room from EO and yet again I was enamored by the story telling and puzzled here. All of the games at EO have different puzzles to ones I've seen elsewhere, but castaway definitely had the most unique puzzles I'd seen. Definitely a think outside of the box room here (or think outside the boat....)
This was my first room as a duo and it was still challenging yet not too challenging but with an overriding level of fun. All of EO's rooms are incredible and Kelly the GM makes the experience that bit better. The room had a few jumpscares (or maybe that was me being a tad jumpy 😂) but a beautiful looking room and yet again I was blown away by the time and effort put into the style and play of the room
We played this room a couple of years ago, but I can still remember parts like it was yesterday. This was our first room played at EO and it did not disappoint. The story telling and immersion was like nothing I had experienced prior or since playing Captive.
We played this a couple of years ago, so can't quite remember our time or date we played. This was the first time we played 2 rooms back to back and they were both so original and different from one another and any other rooms we had played for that matter. I really can't fault any rooms at EO!
A little bit scary but not over the top so everyone can join in! Very immersice room with great puzzles
Great for people new to escape rooms! Enough to keep a large group busy
Great room, great puzzle! Everyone had a fab time
Always top games at EO! We’ve done all the games bar the new none Christmas one and are looking forward to doing that in January! Never disappointed and always leave wanting to go again straight after! 😁
Joey is back and we were not disappointed!!
Well thought out and som much to solve and do. Festive fun with great hosting.
The first game we played at EO which got us hooked! This is still one of our team’s favourites.
Clever clues, lots to solve and a few surprises.
Unique room with fabulous hosting. A must try.
A very unique room and one of my favourites at EO. An unmissable game to play.
Kelly and EO staff are amazing hosts and design all their own rooms.
Lots to do and solve!
A fantastic room with lots to solve and some cheesy dance music to get you in the mood too!
Fantastic hosting as always from EO escape rooms. Their individual rooms and ideas are not to be missed
Fantastic room with some very memorable moments!
Kelly and the team are amazing hosts and you will not regret playing one of their self-created games.
Such a unique room and my daughter’s favourite out of all the rooms we have played
Great story, great puzzles, well planned out
Kelly our host was great, and makes you feel so welcome
Great fun room with plenty to do for everyone and a great theme
Our first time with Kodi as our host, she was fab
Fantastic room, so much to do and well planned and laid out
We played as a family group of 4
Kelly our host was fantastic as always
Great set and story as always. Kelly and her team never fail to provide awesome rooms. We all had the best fun from myself having done lots of rooms and my friends having been their 1st one!
Really enjoyed this Christmas room. Lots to do and everything made sense and was fun to complete. Fab hosting from Kelly as always. Would definitely recommend this room
Lovely Christmas escape room. Very lovely host
Great theme, great story and great host. A great room to test your communication and team work!
Fabulous room from start to finish. So creative and unique.As ususal, Kelly was a fantastic host.
First Christmas themed room we have played and it did not disappoint. Probably the most puzzles we’ve ever had to solve in one escape but all were superbly thought out.
Great room, family friendly and it really got me into the Christmas spirit
A fantastic game. This was the first room we played at EO escape rooms and it really set the bar high! Lots of puzzles to engage with and a good variety. There was a puzzle for everyone in this room. I absolutely loved the theme, I have never been to a room like this before and haven’t seen one since.
If you ever visit, this room is a must!
As always such a great experience. I always love coming to EO, this was such a fun Christmas escape room. Lots of puzzles and rooms to explore. Highly recommend.
Great escape room with a Christmas feel. Child friendly and brilliantly set up and the staff are amazing our host Kodi was brilliant. Will be back to play the other games. Highly recommend
My favourite EO Room
Superb Room as always by EO
Another Amazing room by EO
Awesome game, enough scare factor to make it still enjoyable - very clever use of props! Awesome hosts and super fun room!
Loved this game - was one of the first games I played and got me hooked! Clever and fun set, with amazing decoration and lots of interactive fun puzzles
Very immersive game, loved all the attention to detail! Lots of clever well thought out puzzles. Gutted to have played all EO games now and need them to create more as they’re the best ones I’ve played!
This is my favourite Escape room! Clever and really feels like you’re at a nightclub..probably would have escaped quicker if I didn’t keep breaking out into dance routines (not part of the game but hard not to feel like dancing!). Really clever and thought out and super fun evening out with friends
Loved this game, brought my mum to play it too and she really enjoyed it! The hosts were friendly and the set was incredible. Very clever puzzles an and very enjoyable evening
Loved playing this with my family to get into the Christmas spirit! My 5yo has not stopped talking about it, although it kept us adults entertained and challenged too!! Amazing decorations that fully immerse you into the game!
Played scarlet with my dad and some family friends. It was our friends first ever escape room they enjoyed it loads and said they would definitely go back! Scarlet very unique and very interesting puzzles !
Me and my friend played keypers secret and we both loved it! Very unique! Different from most of the games I have played!
I played with my mums friends and it was their first ever game. We all loved it! It works for all ages so enjoyable everyone came out smiling.
Very unique puzzles! Have guaranteed enjoyment and lots of laughs. All of my friends enjoyed it.
So enjoyable! Had so much fun with friends loved the puzzles as well as very good music taste . Didn’t want it to end.
Such an amazing room, kodi was an amazing host, the room design was stunning, the puzzles were so much fun and challenging and all made so much sense. This is now definitely in my top 3 rooms
This room was the most fun I’ve ever had, so much going on but the game had amazing momentum and progression. I’ve played all the rooms here and they keep getting better and better. This was a unique experience where you could split and still complete a lot! Absolutely incredible!!!
Very fun! Definitely puts you in the Christmas mood! Great hosting from Kelly and she was so lovely and made you feel very comfortable. Excellent for friends and family and any age range. Overall had an excellent time!
Really fun and interactive room with lots of clever puzzles. The room allows for multiple puzzles to be solved at once which is great for bigger teams. Puzzles were challenging but very solvable. Deffinately would recommended.
Fab room - well laid out. Plenty to do and so different to any other room we have played. Team work needed to escape in time. Kelly was a great host as always.
Really well themed room with interesting and unique puzzles. As usual Kelly and Rich were great hosts. Overall another fantastic escape room by EO Escapes.
Clever, thought-provoking puzzles with a great tale to go along with it! A very enjoyable evening out, with a fabulous host in Kelly.
Simply a great game wrapped up in a cheese fuelled soundtrack. Loved every moment of this game!
As per all EO games there’s a lot to be getting on with and multiple opportunities to divide and conquer. We enjoyed how different puzzles in the games brought us together to solve whilst others could be done in tandem.
The set looked incredible and felt like a proper nightclub (minus the sticky floor as mentioned by another reviewer!). It was hard not to sing and dance too much whilst solving.
Some great use of technology in this game which amplified the experience.
Easily my favourite at this venue and I’m excited to go back for Keyper’s secret and their upcoming Xmas game.
Really unique from the very start with an element I’d never seen before in 170+ games.
Excellent theming with some funny jump scares throughout.
TONNES of puzzles to get through (observation, logic, physical etc. ) so really challenging as a 2. We took a bit of time (purely us not the game) to get going in this one and so needed the bonus token once we’d unlocked it.
The only thing stopping the full 5* for me is that locks needed a bit more signposting. There was a few times where we had a 4 digit code and multiple locks to try it in. EDIT - We returned to EO and Kelly was very pleased to say that this feedback has been actioned. So cool to see a company that genuinely cares about the player experience and wants to make their games as good as possible!
All in all another exceptional game from EO- GO PLAY!
Kelly is a fantastic and enthusiastic games master whose passion for her craft is unsurpassed. Her new room, the keypers secret continues her high standard of very playable and enjoyable rooms. There was plenty going on to keep our group of four occupied, we enjoyed the novel use of the space. We are just sad we only have one more room to do at EO! Plus the Christmas room!
Really fun game with lots to get through. Would recommend for any group size. Very creative puzzles
What a brilliant game, think escape room with a touch of crystal maze.
For padlock lovers this game is for you!
Once again a beautifully designed game that makes you feel like you are in the rainforest with game play that just makes sense
Another awesome game by EO.
Wow, this room is so beautifully designed with such a fun surprise. A fun filled, action packed way to spend an hour.
The puzzles all just make sense, making game play flow really well.
You won’t be disappointed!
What a fun way to spend an hour. Clever puzzles that all just seem to flow. Set to a fantastic sound track that makes you want to get your dancing shoes on. Grab your friends and relive your youth!
Another awesome game by EO. Go check it out!
Was lucky enough to test this game and once again EO knock it out of the park. Beautifully designed room with clever game play and puzzles for all abilities. Overall a top notch game. When this opens make sure you check it out, you won’t be disappointed.
Well I can openly say when you think you’ve seen some things in the escape room world you’ve never seen anything quite like castaway at EO! No spoilers but when you enter the room you will be guaranteed to say ‘oh my god’
The design is something quite spectacular from Kelly and Rich and the game 100% backs up the amount of effort that has clearly gone into building this game! It plays exactly as you’d hope and expect and has some great puzzles as well as some moments of pure frantic ness which is always fun! Make sure you add this to your must play games list as it’s one you really don’t want to miss!
We were lucky enough to test the new game the keypers secret for EO and what a treat it was! An ingenious build from Kelly, Rich and the team at EO with some very unique puzzles and concepts during the game! Extremely immersive with some great aha moments as you logically play through the beautiful setting! Everyone is in for a real treat once this game opens so please head down to EO and say hello to Kelly and the gang!
Excellent room with some really clever puzzles. One of my favourites at EO Escape!
Came back for our second visit to EO and loved it! We played as a four and laughed the whole way through. The hosting was brilliant, and Kelly helped calm down one of our team members who was nervous, which really helped her feel like she could join in in the game.
I loved Karma club! Along with the excellent hosting from Kelly, who knew exactly how to banter with us before we went in the room, the game was amazing! So much fun, with lots of different puzzles to be getting on with!
We came and played castaway as our first ever escape room, Kelly the host was brilliant at explaining what to do. The room was very unique and had a perfect blend of different puzzles for people to enjoy.
We returned to EO and played scary tale as a 5, the room was packed full of puzzles and there was a lot for everyone to be getting on with. The host Kelly was brilliant as usual. The room is beautifully themed and a lot of fun!
Loved this room. Very original and things we’ve not seen before. An excellent room with excellent hosting. Definitely try this room if you are in the area

Another top game from EO, great start to the game requiring teamwork to progress with some intricate puzzles and a real sense of adventure on the way leading to a dramatic final escape!! Yet again Kelly was an absolute please as a GM
Back to EO we went for our 3rd trip and our 150th escape room! After our expected and enjoyable catch up with Kelly and rich we headed round to the entrance to the Karma Club! We were greeted with a decision before we even stepped foot in the room which really got us in the mood and then off we went! If I was to say this was as immersive as you’ll find in the escape world then I’d be understating it! Another mix of clever and well designed puzzles along with some banging tunes to really flow your way through the game and story! We finally made our escape and we’re greeted by rich and Kelly with a box of sweets (which were actually hidden in the game and we found on the way) and an EO T shirt in congratulations for our 150th game! We can’t thank them enough for their hospitality when we visit! It always feels like catching up with old friends and we love it! Please if you haven’t already visit!
2nd game of our 2nd visit to EO and we were excited for this after playing the previous 3 games and it did not disappoint! An ingenuous way to start a room that we’ve not experienced before and the surprises didn’t end there! Once we were in it was go time with a great mix of puzzles and more beautiful decor in the room! If you’re a total wimp like my partner is then don’t think twice before playing this game you won’t want to miss it! My partner also uses a walking stick and I cannot say enough about how helpful Kelly was with making the games accessible with anything she could possibly do to give us the best experience possible! Please please visit EO if you haven’t yet!
Back for our 2nd trip to EO this time for a Xmas treat! Was great to catch up again with Kelly and after a lovely chat we headed up to our Xmas challenge!! As we come to expect from EO the room was beautifully decorated with a great story and a lovely element to this game of being 2 purposes to complete to allow all to ‘escape’ but more time to be able to ‘complete’ the game if you can! We managed to find 25 of the 30 letters and we were extremely happy! Some great hides and some brilliant puzzles we hadn’t seen before!! Can’t wait for the next Xmas game to come from Kelly and Rich!
This was our 2nd game of the day at EO and again we were not disappointed! A tough game that plays fair! Again very well designed and beautifully decorated! The extra 10 minute token puzzle is a real coo for EO and it’s great fun once you see it in the game trying to figure out how to get it! Can’t speak highly enough of EO! If you haven’t been you must go!
This was our first visit to EO and we were not disappointed! Greeted with a smiling Kelly and had a lovely chat before heading into Scarlet! Boy there is a lot to do in this game but it delivers everything an escape room enthusiast could look for! Brimming with puzzles, beautifully decorated and designed room and some great finds along the way! The extra 10 minute token puzzles is something we have never seen before and a great idea to bring into a game to add some diversity to your normal escape room! Can’t speak highly enough of EO! If you haven’t been you must go!
As always, a fantastic room by EO. Original puzzles, designed and built by the company. I enjoyed this one from start to finish. What stood out for me was the pace of the room, which flowed really well with each puzzle being completely logical. Kelly was as always the perfect host.
We also got to try the Box, which I’d definitely recommend as it gives a completely new experience. Being alone with the added pressure of playing against your team mates, rather than with them, makes you appreciate them even more!
The split start to this room elevates this room from a good captive room to something special. Well themed puzzles and a great game flow makes this room excellent. Also making one of our team scream like a girl was a bonus!
Another excellent room, with great theming and a lovely family-friendly story.
After much deliberation, this came out as my favourite of all the EO rooms. Its the wonderful theming of the decor and puzzles, both inside and outside the room, and the well-timed 'wow' moments throughout the game that elevated this game over the others. The brothers Grimm would be proud!
I so loved this room, it made me grin with delight for the whole game. Great theming and SO much fun. It makes me smile every time I think of playing it.
I do love a room with an epic soundtrack! This is a great room for teams as everyone can work on something and if you're stuck you can move on. Brilliant theme too, loved it.
Really enjoyable room, with an amazing host Kelly. Lots of fun dancing and solving puzzles!
One of favourite first puzzles to date - creatively used their space well.
The ambiance in this room was well cultivated for the right balance of eerie and adventurous. The story is unique and well written. The puzzles fit the story well and the room has a satisfying amount of jump scares!
Loved this game! Perfect balance of puzzles. Literally can’t fault it. The vibe for this room is spot on and the feel good moments kept flowing. We clicked really well with this game and didn’t want it to end. Kelly is a very gifted writer and her passion really shows in her rooms, especially this one!
A cool start to the room which required great communication. We are still kicking ourselves over what we missed (haha!). The room flows well and there’s plenty to do for everyone so we had a nice balance between working together and working separately. Some unique moments!
Gorgeous puzzles and a lovely balance between padlocks and physical elements. Lots to do so organisation is key. There were so many unique and fun elements that we kept discussing on our long drive home. You can really see the playful storyline and design that has gone into this room. Everything makes perfect sense so the game flow is spot on.
Our trip kicked off with this excellent room! Our host Kelly was incredible throughout the day and it was a genuine pleasure to spend the day with her and Kody.
Castaway is a genuinely fun room and flowed effortlessly. The puzzles were playful and just made perfect sense!
Great game, loved the split start especially as it wasn’t the usual “split for 2 puzzles” but actually meant we were separated for over 20 minutes. Really fun room full of puzzles, including some I haven’t seen anywhere else! Great hosting from Kelly as always, looking forward to the next ones!
Fun, yet slightly overwhelming to begin, room with lots of mechanical physical elements and a huge variety of puzzles. As with the other games at this venue, great well built games with excellent hosting.
Best version of a split start that I've played. Clever puzzles and use of the communication skill throughout. Enjoyable game from start to finish with a superb host, Kelly!
Probably the oddest way to begin an escape room but all makes sense as soon as the door is opened. Fantastic set and everything fits the theme perfectly. A solid mixture of physical and mental puzzles with a decent sense of exploration throughout. Highly recommend!
The theme is carried out really well throughout this room. There is plenty for a team of Five to do. Everything flowed nicely throughout the game.
This is the last room we have done at Sudbury and I am torn between this one and Scary Tale being my favourite 😁
You can’t help but dance and sing along in this one which makes this enjoyable.
For all Escape room junkies out there you have to try this one!
And thanks Kelly for always being the hostess with the mostest!
If you go down to the woods today indeed.. This was our final game here and it was a great way to end, however, the first puzzle featured something I've only seen done once before at a chain and this was how you entered the game. Once in full flow you have a dense puzzle rich environment to go at, there is a lot to do and the room isn't huge. There a couple of jump scares (apparently my exclamation at one point was heard in the car park) but this is not a scary room. Humour is prevalent throughout and there are some great a-ha moments when you finally crack some of the puzzles. Brilliant.
Thankfully, my night clubbing days are long behind me but I would happily return to the Karma club! Breaking into a nightclub to steal back your own record is only the start. Once again, the theming is on point (maybe the floor could do with some 'stickyness' for that authentic feeling... There are some truly hilarious moments combined with some very clever puzzlework. There's a lot to do but the signposting is excellent, rarely were we standing around wondering what to do next or where we should be looking. The soundtrack was just the proverbial cherry on top. Rock on indeed...
Scarlet the parrot has been stolen, we need to rescue him! Once again, the environment was well themed and the puzzles were all point. There were a couple of dexterity based puzzles and good communication is required at one point but once again this is a brilliant game with some great and clever moments.
Ah, the old taken prisoner cliché, it's a classic trope among Escape Rooms and it's endearing popularity means there's a lot of them out there. This game (as mentioned on the website) does start with you blindfolded, guided into position and one hand cuffed to the wall. This is a split start game so you have to work with your teammates in the other cell to affect your release. This is one of the better split starts I've played and you also don't get the handcuff key straight away like some places (I like to fight for my freedom!) What follows is a very clever path to your eventual freedom featuring some puzzles enthusiasts may well be familiar with but putting some clever spins on them. Like other games here, the puzzles are a mixture of logic and physical.
This was our first game at the venue and was quite the introduction! The setup will get you in the mood from the off and I'm relatively confident elements will have you laughing throughout. Theming is both clever and on point and puzzles are a wide variety between logical and physical. Hints are given on a screen as is the countdown. Highly recommended!
Such a fun room, lots to keep us busy with the best soundtrack and some really fun puzzles.
Hosting was outstanding as always!
From the moment the game started, we knew we were in for something different here! We've been thoroughly impressed with all of EO's rooms so far and Scary Tale is no exception. From the set dressing to the sheer density of thematic puzzles, everything makes sense and ties together to make an intense story-driven experience. It was our first "scary" room and I'd describe it as more "spooky" than horror as it keeps things fairly light (Brothers Grimm type fairy tale), but there are some jumps and hair-raising moments (which I loved!). The room is not just a work of art but also extremely well designed - delivering a remarkable range of challenges and experiences in a relatively small space (which definitely adds to the experience). Expect non-linearity, teamwork, and a little bit of crawling. Our GM Kelly did a great job of guiding us through, and if you're after a spooky challenge I highly recommend this room!
With just enough Boo for your Buck, scary tale lands itself as yet another masterpiece from EO.
Lovely theming, great puzzles which as always never ceased to flow as expected.
If you go down to the woods (EO) today, you'd better not go do one room alone!
"Okaaaay" is your first reaction after Kelly's briefing but I'll leave that to you to find out why.
But it all becomes clear once you enter the room and start playing.... yet another great game from EO.
Everything was logical, and, despite myself being stubborn and completing a task designed for 2 people by myself, we all enjoyed our time on the island.
Bravo EO 🙂
With the newest room at EO testing last time we were there, of course on our mop up we had to play this room last... and boy was it worth the wait. It certainly crashes into my top 3 rooms on account of the playstyle and logic that is present in the room, with some VERY thematic puzzles which just fitted so perfectly together.
I think other reviews cover the key positives of this room - but I must emphasise that this is without doubt the *Most Fun* room we've ever done! I can't say why; book it and find out - you won't regret it! It's a superb room, and our GM Kodi did a lovely job of keeping an eye on our escapades.
As with all EO games, this is an absolutely superb room! This room is great fun, thoroughly original, densely packed with a wide variety of puzzles - and is sure to elicit more than a few chuckles (and perhaps some dancing!). Experienced players will appreciate where a few "classic" rules are broken and some particularly novel approaches. Looks good, the puzzles flow smoothly, the narrative ties in really well to the room and puzzles, it has a lovely GM (thanks Kelly!), and we loved every minute of it!
This room is fantastic - and really enforces good teamwork and communication. We particularly appreciated the original starting arrangement. Our GM was friendly and enthusiastic, and the room had all-round good polish, production, and puzzle flow.
The karma club is an amazing room and definitely very different to other rooms I've played previously. The lights, music and elements work perfectly and the story telling by Kelly is second to none. Once again I'm blown away by the work and effort put into these rooms by all the staff at EO. I can't wait for the next room for me to try.
Great room! (With spiders!)
Clever split start to the game, it’s challenging to play as a two at the start and needs very good communication. Packed full of puzzles. We loved it and I’m so glad we got to play it before it went.
Thanks as always to Kelly for amazing hosting.
I love EO games. Original and clearly designed by enthusiasts!
Amazing hosting.
We took our 3 year old to this room and she showed us up! She was able to complete little tasks such as posting the letters, feeding the reindeer and she even found other puzzles and clues that we missed as they were perfectly placed in her eyeline.
The room was magical, warm and there was lots to do for all of us. We were able to split up and work seperately and together and some really unique puzzles too.
Loved this room - I really hope they bring it back for 2023 or something similar because it would be a shame to lose it!
This room has two parts to it, escaping and then collecting as many letters as possible. This meant there were a lot of puzzles and we enjoyed solving them all. It felt strange doing a Christmas themed room in January but we recommend other players do so before it goes at the end of the month. This room is very suitable for families.
Yes we are giving another 5* to EO, the theme and execution of this room was brilliant and we've not seen anything quite like it. This was just simply a lot of fun.
This was our first game at EO and we really enjoyed it. Lots of people recommended this room to us and we were not disappointed. There was a good mix of physical and traditional escape room puzzles which we enjoyed. The game had a good flow and was a fun storyline. Kelly (GM and owner) and her team that created the room deserve a lot of praise. For a game with a lot of mechanical elements, everything worked as it should.
Really well thought out. Loved the christmas theme. Lots of things to keep you busy in the room
The room is stunningly designed, clear that a lot of thought was put into it.
Puzzles were all original and exciting, with plenty to do for everyone at all times.
GMing was amazing, we had conversations about games galore and came away with many ideas of where to go next
Highly recommend a visit, especially for escapist enthusiasts.
We decided to stop off to play Scarlet as we made our way back home and boy was it worth it!
An original theme and beautiful room, combined with excellent puzzles, both logical and physical.
GM Kelly was amazing, couldn't have asked for much more!
We had so much fun at castaway. Good theming, fun puzzles and a quite a few things I hadn’t seen anywhere before.
Fantastic hosting too!
Very good room with a unique feeling. Clever puzzles and fun physical bits. Lovely GM Kelly!
Puzzels felt fresh and we only need a pointer or two to keep us on the right track.
Very impressed by the decor (especially the water bit)
Definitely a place to recommend and we will be back to do more rooms.
Fabulous hosting from EO with assistance to find a slot we could do while being child free!
Really enjoyed the different puzzles and props. Think would have been slightly easier with a third person on a couple of things.
Really fun room though and we are waiting for friends to visit so we can do more of the rooms!
We have played many games at EO and have yet to be disappointed by a room. You are always guaranteed a friendly welcome. This room had a really enjoyable theme, needed lots of teamwork to get through. I would recommend this room to any enthusiast and novice alike
Very nicely themed room. We played with four and we had plenty to do.
Team work is the key to this one. The starting position is original and good communication will be required to move onto the mid game in good time.
Very good room with immersive theme. Enjoyed playing this, involved a lot of communication.
This is a great game - can safely say I have not played another game quite like this. Full of puzzles to keep enthusiasts busy. We had a tech fault in this game (team before us had been a little overenthusiastic with one puzzle) but owner/GM was able to address this. Original and really just good fun to play - as escape rooms should be, and would definitely recommend this venue if you are in the area.
This is a new venue in an out of the way town, but it is worth the trip. Absolutely loved both games we played there and had a great chat with the owner/game designer. EO have chosen to go absolutely full in with quantity of puzzles so that enthusiasts do not run out of things to do, and it does not disappoint. Original story, excellent use of space, a real joy of a game to play.
