great hosting

We had a good time in this room! There was lots to do; some of it we made good progress on and some bits took a bit of searching/extra thinking. We had a really good time but I think one box that had two padlocks on only had one of the padlocks attached so we may have had an unfair advantage ๐Ÿ˜… hosts were super nice and weโ€™re happy to talk to us after the room about the details - we also saw a cat which was the highlight

A great game with a nice flow and solid theming. There's a lot to do in the time you have, but there's a lot of variety and some nice and clever puzzles. Super friendly hosts, nice waiting area.

Played this room after not enough sleep or caffeine and failed miserably!

A nice venue in Matlock with a good waiting area including hot drinks and a little puzzle to keep you entertained.

The actual room is nicely creepy with a theme (wedding+the occult) Iโ€™ve never seen before. We did it as a pair and I think larger groups might find the space a little cramped. The puzzles were not revolutionary but were well-themed and varied.

Worth checking out if youโ€™re visiting the Peak District, especially if the weather isnโ€™t good.
