We loved this room and had lots of fun! As always happens with us at the start, we were completely stumped by something simple but once we figured it out we were away. There are quite a lot of puzzles to complete and one of them takes quite a long time. I'd definitely have at least 3 people for this room

This is the closest I've come to not finishing a room - we escaped with zero seconds remaining on the clock!  We were only a team of 2 and this room could easily keep a team of 4-6 busy so a great choice for larger groups (or smaller groups up for a challenge!).

Reviews by escape room review sites

Credit to Adventure Rooms Cardiff for trying to introduce different technology in the room, it is a great room and definitely one to do if you’re in Cardiff.

Overall, I really enjoyed The Black Queen. I’d say four people is ideal for this room if you want to make sure everyone has a job to do and isn’t just standing around. You won’t get completely immersed in the story, but you’ll be too busy puzzle-solving to notice.

With a great range of puzzles that’ll challenge you in different ways, The Black Queen is definitely worth a visit.

Die schwarze Dame ist ein Fest für Rätselfreunde. Leider kommt am Ende die eigentliche Geschichte -oder schlicht das "warum?"- einfach ein wenig zu kurz. Leider wurde die Location im Münchner Osten schon relativ kurz nach unserem Besuch wieder geschlossen, so dass man das Spiel in München derzeit nicht erleben kann.
