The world has been infected with a virus. You have two options; sit around and let it take you or redouble your efforts to retrieve a vaccine from an old medical facility.
In order to get your hands on it, you must find a way to defeat the lock down on the lab.
The quarantine timer is set to 60 minutes, after which the room and all traces of your work will be incinerated. You must do this to save humanity as we know it...

Some really clever puzzles in this room- we went in the first week it opened, but some tech was already broken 🙁 GM couldn't hear us so kept giving us clues to puzzles we had already done, and at the start, the room just looks like an office space filled with Ikea furniture. It does get better, but it's a shame the same amount of effort wasn't put into the beginning of the room.

poor hostingoverpriced
We have played a lot of escape rooms and we definitely prefer the independent escape rooms, the chain rooms just don't cut it. We did not get this room and did not enjoy it.

good themingbroken techpoor hosting
Our host was nice, but we'd been before so were all too familiar with how touch and go the clues can get here. Played soon after the opening, but a piece of tech was already broken and the venue did not look cleaned up (construction bits, wood, etc). We would wave for a clue only to be given hints about a puzzle we'd already completed. The room itself was nicely built and costumes for an immersion -- just a bit of a let down.
If you're lucky enough to get a good GM then this is a solid room and one we would happily recommend to enthusiasts
Humanity is once again in peril, this time from an epidemic that's swept the globe and left your team as the last scientists on Earth. Fortunately there is an antidote hidden somewhere in a laboratory, if you can reach it in time.
The Escape franchise has spread to something like 14 different cities in the UK now, with a couple more on the way, so they must be doing something right. I've now played six of their games, and they tend to follow a straightforward format based around a mostly linear...
The premise of Operation Contagion is fairly straightforward. There’s a zombie apocalypse sweeping the globe and the world is in lockdown – not too hard to imagine post-2020, hey! – but this laboratory has developed a cure. Great! We’re saved! Only the lab is also in lockdown and there’s just 60 minutes before it self-incinerates. Ahh, not so great.
