Great game! Immersion for sure! Really felt like being back at school again with some really funky puzzles and a couple of ‘oh my god’ moments including the final dash for the escape! Definitely worth a trip if you haven’t been yet!
for those of us who grew up watching Grange Hill (google it), this was a lot of fun incorporating some clever injokes. The hosting was excellent but be warned I think this is a hard room, also organise, you get a lot of information quite quickly so you need to sort items as you may need some in the future.
A unique theme with a great set and soundtrack. Puzzles were very fun and well integrated to the theme, but could perhaps benefit from better signposting. The clue systems are inventive and our host Mark gave nudges at the right points. A lot of fun, and well worth playing.
A feel-good game that throws you back to your childhood, from the GM introduction right through to the moment you escape the room. Plenty of enjoyable puzzles, an enjoyable setting and a clever finale to the experience. If you want ninety minutes of nostalgic fun then I can highly recommend.
Detention was beautifully designed, with a good flow, and just simply, good fun, ticking all my boxes for a wonderful room.
As two very well behaved children, we went into this room ready to pay attention and follow the rules, but, obviously, things weren’t quite that clear…!
This might not be the first time we've been kept behind after school, but it's certainly the first time we've tried to escape. Did we succeed or did we get trapped in the headteacher's office?
Let you inner kid out and relive the good old days
