After a previous not great experience at a different branch; We maybe wouldn't have gone to this (national chain) company under normal circumstances; however, they have an offer in the school holidays, where you can take one child free, if two people pay.  And then you get a discounted (29.99) game if you do 4 games with them 

Plenty of reviews for this company say "Broken Tech" thankfully we were absolutely fine, but I can see why that may be an issue sometimes as this room did seem quite tech heavy. So a lot to potentially go wrong? 

However with two children in tow this tech element was quite good as all the flashing lights, bright colours, buttons to press etc were good at holding their attention, there was never a dull moment, and a really great pace. 

Interesting to do a room with no padlocks. It's still mainly along the lines of getting 4 letter codes etc 

However I did feel the puzzles were really good, inventive, engaging and logical 

It's quite a small space, with no opportunity to spread out and I personally wouldn't recommend 6 people stuffed in here. 

Plus I'm not sure if their ventilation / air con was working properly, but on a warm August day I was drenched in sweat.

 But I probably needed the exercise. Zoé was a good host.   

Overall it was a really good experience.
