One of the best Escape Hunt games
An opportunity to be a great game let down by poor maintenance and overuse
Took my parents along to this one, they were worried before that we would be playing against each other haha! It is a brilliant room, the theme and props and atmosphere are perfect. The challenge is tough and some great surprises here!
This is a decent room and there is one particular element that is incredible! Lovely puzzles and a good amount of challenge that fitted in with the theme and kept the two of us occupied.
We had a great GM who was super chatty and friendly, making us feel really welcome. This is not always the case at chains such as Escape Hunt so we were really pleased by this.
We enjoyed this game a lot. There is a good mix of hands on puzzles which really tested different types of thinking.
Enjoyable game. First time players would probably enjoy it. As someone who has played more rooms than the average player, it didn't really stand out to me in any way, but it was by no means a bad game.
Our first game with Escape Hunt so we werenโt sure what to expect, overall it was a good game with different puzzles and some unusual items which fitted well with the theme.
Reviews by escape room review sites
Escape Hunt is a name that enthusiasts may recognise from escaping trips abroad: they have venues in more than two dozen cities around the globe. They used to have a location in London, which shut down some years ago; but they've now re-launched in three UK cities with at least another three due to open. I didn't have a hugely favourable impression of their original London location, but early feedback on their new UK games was a lot more positive, so I was pleased to make a visit to their...
Overall, this was an outstanding escape room. If you only do one in your life, this might be a contender. If you want to do a lot and are looking for somewhere to startโฆ honestly maybe donโt do this one first. I have a feeling it would make any subsequent ones you do a little less engaging.
