Professor BlackSheep seeks to recreate the original genetical experiment that turned him into a sheep. He has launched a cyber attack on our old mainframe in the hope of extracting secret data, along with the genetical research he's missing.
In order to stop the Professor from breaching our firewall, you and your team will have to access Mr Q's old base. The only way in, however, is to shrink down to the size of a mouse with the help of the Shrink'o'Mat.Word of caution, agents: the technology you'll be exposed to is...a bit unstable and still experimental. You'll have only 60 minutes to counteract the cyber attack and secure the mainframe before the Shrink'o'Mat's effect wears off and things get messy.

Some of the puzzles are really unique, that I've not seen anywhere else before. The premise was also clever with the props to match. One of the best rooms I've done
Only one padlock? Yes! Great room, some imaginative puzzles and quite tricky in places. Nice use of tech, good theming and superb hosting. Recommended!

The use of walkie-talkes was frustrating with the rather loud soundtrack.
This isn't negative, and there were great positives just our opinion on the room!

All their games share a secret agent theming with players being recruited for a super spy agency run by...
We absolutely loved the concept of this room, it was so simple but designed incredibly well. We had so much fun exploring all the props and clever, special touches in the space. The props were well designed and pretty much everything really ‘worked’, meaning a great deal of exploring the room pays off, not only for progressing the story, but also for the wow-factor of discovery!
I love the concept and was very intrigued, as this is a very ambitious theme for a game – presumably they weren’t REALLY going to shrink us down…?
cQ Origenes has been at the top of our escape room wish list for a while now, after a previous excellent visit to ClueQuest it was time to play...
