Such a neat concept makes this a great room for enthusiasts while also appealing to family / novice groups. Kept us engaged throughout and despite being quite linear, we all had good time and would tackle bonus puzzles while the others attacked the primary puzzle. Set is good and puzzles are a lot of fun to solve - only a well hidden bit of searching kept us from the maximum score. Really enjoyable game, highly recommended

A lovely Christmas room. There’s so much to get through so keeps a good intense pressure as a two. We managed to get everything with 20ish seconds remaining so a strong pace is needed throughout! The puzzles are easy but as there’s so much to do, you still feel challenged.

Reviews by escape room review sites

Having been opened for 2021’s festive season, Christmas Advent-ure was long closed by mid spring when I got to Halifax, but the owners kindly allowed us to play it anyhow, since it hadn’t yet been torn down. I’m not sure whether it’ll be available again next Christmas, so this review may be purely for retrospective interest.

This is a score-based game. Your goal is to gather small wooden tokens called PUDs, which you then feed into a collector that gathers them off in a rather satisfying manner...
