Underrated game. Lots of fun ideas and great puzzles (with one tortuous maths puzzle). Clue HQ venues do tend to vary in quality from site to site but Somerton, where are played this, is well maintained with free parking outside and friendly staff.
Itβs a very plain, beat up room. Honestly itβs just a bit dull.
No stand out puzzles (and very slow computer based ones!). All in all, lacking in imagination and care.
A classic theme and a really solid game that we enjoyed trawling through. It's a bit low on lighting in here, which made some of the locks a bit difficult to see and that's always something I find a little bit frustrating but that's entirely personal preference so it might bother some!
Some solid puzzles and a nice bit of communication needed.
Reviews by escape room review sites
As one of Clue HQ's older games, Cell Block C is available at over half a dozen locations around the country, and I had not rushed to try it on the assumption that its age meant it would be one of the company's less interesting offerings. But it neatly filled a gap in our day's schedule of escape rooms, and I was pleased to discover it actually stood up well to most of Clue HQ's newer escape rooms.
Imprisoned for a crime you didn't commit due to the machinations of Clue HQ's usual bad guy antag...
