Took my Harry-Potter obsessed niece to play this and we all loved it. It is a Harry Potter room in all but name in our opinion.

Reviews by escape room review sites

As far as magic rooms go, this one was fine. It didn’t feel like a carbon copy of the Harry Potter world, and had a unique set. I would imagine that kids would definitely enjoy this game, we certainly did. Although of the two games we played at Timescape, we probably preferred Casino Heist more.
