broken techpoor hosting
I was disappointed with the whole experience here to be honest, seeing as Iâd heard quite positive things about this venue. The welcome was poor, three hosts sat behind a desk on their phones. Part of the game wasn't working and when we asked if it should be doing something, we weren't really helped. The themeing was good but there was no really excitement when we successfully escaped. With 3 children in tow, the lack of fanfare just made us feel quite flat. The hosting really let this one down.
This was my favourite room at Lockhouse, there's enough quality props and tech to make it feel like a treat, and the puzzles were tricky enough to get us talking for quite a while. A little bit corny but I don't mind.

hi-techstory-drivengreat hostingquite difficult
One of the more difficult ones we've done. Had to resort to asking for a lot of clues to be able to finish in time. One small section had actually broken which the gamesmaster had to come in to fix for us but the room was still fun
Incredible room, the theme and attention to detail crafting the room is brilliant. Host was a pleasure, Burt. Only issue we found was at the start, a video tells you to ignore a lock on a desk, it must be full of electrics for the room, but it made us discount that desk draws entirely, turns out we needed to open the draw next to this one! Brilliant room though, suspect some will find it very challenging but it flowed well for our team and we had a great time, already planning our next weekend away back here to do a few of their rooms it was that good!
For some reason both the escape game venues currently open in central Cambridge use room designs from Hungarian company TRAP. I played most of the TRAP games in Budapest some years ago, but Armageddon is one of the designs that didn't exist at that time, so I happily booked in to try it when passing through town. I remembered the Budapest TRAP rooms as as solid and slick mass-market games, but then they were some of the first escape rooms I ever played, so I didn't have much to compare them to....
The less experienced escapers in our team found the room to be a lot of fun, but those with a few more escapes under our belt were left a little underwhelmed. Thereâs a nice variety of puzzles but itâs a pretty short experience and a very crowded one with seven players.
A strong room with impressive set design and puzzles we've not seen anywhere else.
