This was my first escape room and ultimately my first failed escape. Looking back on it I really should have escaped as I just wasn't as aware as I should have been. It is an easier game than the others at Doncaster with a mix of different puzzles

quite easy

Quite straightforward this room. I think it could have potential to be a lot more if desired but is the easier of the rooms and there needs to be a spread.

I agree with other comments about one really neat puzzle that was in there.

I loved this room for one particular thing that anyone who has played it will know straight away but that I can't name for obvious reasons! The Hostage concept has a novel twist to it, certainly an immersive room with some really good puzzles and a-ha moments. We did get stuck at one point but this was due to our lack of (careful) searching and with a gentle prod from our GM we were soon up and running again. The hosting was enthusiastic and fun - it's great when the GMs are up for a laugh and not just going through the motions which is something we have found in other franchised rooms. No problems at all here though, Danny and his sidekick gave a great welcome and ran the rooms with a great sense of humour. Thoroughly recommend this room to beginners and enthusiasts.
