Quite a simple room based around locks and keys. A good room for beginners even if some of the set up seemed a little odd at times.

The host we had was not great, didn't really give any form of H&S talk at the beginning, barely looked at us or interacted with us the entire time.
The props in the room were very worn, ripped and just generally falling apart.
Puzzles boring and generic. Just avoid this.

After playing other ClueHQ games, we took advantage of the groupon offer. This room is just carnage. I don't think the props have ever been swapped out or cared for. Paper was "hairy" it had been used so many times. Some random out of place puzzles.
Our host was also awful. He clearly didn't want to be there. Or on the planet.


We had a blast escaping Bunker 38 with our crew of 6 members in February 2016. The Bunker was not particularly atmospheric but had some really fun puzzles from what I can remember. We escaped in 54.50 minutes.

This was the first room we did at Clue HQ Brentwood, and it left me feeling a little flat, was it a bad room? No, but it didn't fill me with joy either. The look of the room was OK, not spectacular, but it fit the bill, there were a couple of puzzles or hiding spots that I did not enjoy, one of which goes against what you are told in every other escape room, and therefore went unnoticed for some time. There were some positives, the theming was pretty good, and there were a few good puzzles, so, not too bad and still worth a visit at the right price, and if you are going to complete multiple rooms.
