Review by Arjay Henshall expert
If you have played an escape room before, then this is not the room for you. If you are brand new to the escape room world, then this is not the room for you.
That's right, I would not recommend this room to anyone. It will not encourage you to want to play more if you are new to the world, and it will be a massive disappointment if you have played even 4 or 5 rooms.
The room itself is self contained and in a space no larger than car parking space. (In fact, you'd struggle to get a smart car in here) 1 very tiny room, although on theme of a prison, is not sufficient for more than 2 people.
The room is severely lacking in puzzles, and those that are in there are flawed and skewed with ambiguity. A room that is outside and in an old cellar should not contain items of fabric such as clothing, blankets or towels... You'll know what i mean when you pick them up and feel the dampness.
All in all, we were not impressed with this room, but I wouldn't expect anything less than that for something in this very old fashioned and way behind the times town
