Its 1978, the ‘Gift of Groove’ disco dance competition has ended and the King of Groove has been crowned. Whilst most rejoice, some seek retribution! As you celebrate and enjoy your night, a quick breath of fresh air is required…
You go to head back in, but police flood the scene. Everyone is evacuated. You hear ‘The King is Dead!’ amongst the rushing rabble. With all your belongings inside, there is no way for you and your friends to get home. You find another way in and you can’t help but have a snoop around. Your curiosity gets the better of you.
What you are about to find inside is not groovy…

Loved playing this game, was so much fun, definitely a favourite! The theme and puzzles tie into each other really well and the game has a superb flow to it. The theme is very novel and there has clearly been a lot of thought and effort put into how the game and the puzzles work and fit together. Puzzle variety is really good too with a really nice balance between, tech, basic locks and the need to go through the things you find to get the right information, some nice moments of humour in the game too.

We loved this game.  It flowed well, puzzles were great.  Friendly GMS and nicely themed.

A fun, clever room that is enjoyable. The owners are amazing hosts and enthusiasts who were happy to chat and not rush you through. The game is well designed and themeing is part of the fun.

Had a great chat with the owners before this room, lovely hosts and passionate escape enthusiasts.  Good room, you've got to be prepared to make a dick of yourself dancing at the hosts expense. Sure they've seen some amusing games!

value for money

Great room, worth the visit. Just bare in mind it's not a polished looking as some of the other rooms I've Seen.

The final game in our schedule at Pressure Point was their 70s disco murder mystery, Murder on the Dancefloor. The winner of a dance competition has been murdered, and, as a group of disco stars yourselves, you decide to sneak into the dancehall and get to the bottom of what happened.

It's actually a game of two halves, with your first task being to find a way into the disco hall for your investigation. I'd describe that as a warm-up section, but it's more substantial than that. Whereas the lat...

An absolute joy to play. Interesting theme, beautiful execution, good, logical puzzles and plenty of humour thrown in. I don't know what Pressure Point's magic is, but they make games that just seem to flow really well and where you come out on a high.
Pressure Point have designed a special game, full of humour and clever puzzles, with a fantastic set and fun music, and we're just sad that we can’t play it again

It really was time to get our groove on with this 1970’s disco extravaganza. A team of four of us were feeling funky so we headed on down to Ashford to see what the noise was all about. Safe to say, we came away feeling as high as Simon Cowell’s waistband!
