A unique location for an escape room venue lends itself to a very effective Victorian explorer theme. A beautifully decorated room conceals a lot of modern technology which all works well in service of the unfolding story. One of the narratively strongest games I’ve played, but not at the expense of providing fun puzzles with plenty of variety.

A challenge for two but I think it would work well with a bigger group.

The highlight of a 20-game New Year's Eve trip, Lightning in a Bottle is filled with good harder-than-average puzzles, fun theatre and a pretty set.

 It is clearly a labour of love and the room itself did not disappoint.  Set up as a gentleman’s study, it has plenty of eye-candy, and the mostly vintage-feel puzzles fit perfectly

Despite first appearances, this room wasn’t a series of trying keys in keyholes. In fact, the variety of puzzles and input methods was impressive to say the least. Combined with the top-notch set design, I can definitely see why it’s rated top in Leeds!
