We didn't get on too well with this room.
We spent a lot of time searching in the darkness with limited torches/UV torch.
The room concept itself was great, and the fact this place has its own communal area complete with bar and pool table is an attraction more escape room places should have. The only fault we had with this room was that it was difficult to be immersed as there was no background music playing, so as we were trying to find the clues we could hear other people outside in the communal area and it was difficult to really absorb the atmosphere. It was also a little clunky with the fact in order to ask for a clue you had to just stand and hold a sign whilst facing the camera, which in essence is a fine idea, but when you ask for a clue at a moment where the host may not be looking at the camera, you can end up standing there for a good 5 mins holding this sign up waiting for a clue. Apart from that this had the makings of a really good room and we will definitely be back to complete the rest!
