clevergreat hostingfamily friendly

A Motherโ€™s Day trip back to Tricky. Family group, 2 adults , a teen and a 7yr old. 

Enjoyed this room, weโ€™ve played more Tricky games than anywhere else so know to expect high level hosting and wasnโ€™t disappointed. 

Is ranked as one of the easier rooms but it still kept us on our toes and we needed a couple of clues. 

Good theming and story line. Some different puzzles than Iโ€™ve seen elsewhere.

Reviews by escape room review sites

Tricky Escapeโ€™s Magic and Mystery clearly has elements inspired by a certain series about a young wizard, while still managing to be original, and is a well-themed, family-friendly room
As we walked in it was clear to see that real effort was put into the theme. Nothing looked out place nor was it too cluttered, avoiding the temptation to over do it.
