The waves slam and crash against the old rickety wood of the famous pirate ship; The Pillager of The Damned as it sails across the seven seas. The sound of the waves like a lullaby after being a desolate, abandoned prisoner for 7 years. So lonely, forgotten. The bars so familiar and friendly, your home for so long. The echo of the crew above your head, working, fighting and singing all to satisfy the cruel Captain Storm Jackson. Given his name for the thunder and despair that he rains down on anyone to cross his path. Always intoxicated and giving away secrets that only a locked away companionless soul could overhear. The plans to steal the legendary pearl...tonight.
Dead Man's Cove. No one fully knows what lies there, only rumours of the rare, exquisite pearl. Only one pirate survived the treacherous journey however he is nowhere to be found and is thought to have gone crazy!

Giving you time to plot your outbreak. No longer will you be held captive by the cruel Captain Storm, you will escape...but at what cost?
The crew has left, the ship is so quiet. All you have to do is breakout of your jail cell and venture through the Pillager of the Damnedโ€™s decks without being seen! Find the raft and guide it across the stormy seas. Hurry your time has come to put your plan into action and jump over the hurdles that will come your way, freedom is in your sightsโ€ฆ

Strongest game at this venue for me - everything made perfect sense as to what we needed to do and why. Some of the puzzles felt a little repetitive at times but otherwise v fun.

Great game, fun puzzles and a lot to do - kept us very busy! The game is fab in terms of the set, they've done well with decoration here. Some original puzzles and times when the team is separated.

Only complaint is that our GM didn't offer much help when we asked for it. We would ask for clues verbally and met with silence.

Reviews by escape room review sites

This room was the highlight of the day for me. I know VX2.0 seems to be getting more love right now, but this room is fun, traditional, and just generally well put together

We're imprisoned on a pirate ship by the cruel captain, but have an opportunity to escape when they become distracted by stealing a legendary pearl.

Pirates of the Year award to Trappโ€™d for their immersive and entertaining voyage. Fifty lashes of the catโ€™oโ€™nine-tails to us

Good puzzles set within a well themed room. If the story was woven into the puzzles and the room itself this would have been higher. Overall a solid if unspectacular room.
