Just a little off the top! this could be more than you bargained for, you heard that Mr Todds was the place to go for that close shave, but maybe a little too close, a strange smell in the air raises suspicion, you decide to leave but the door is locked, can you get out before he returns?

Just like Pirelli's Miracle Elixir, this'll do the trick (Sir). An immaculate set up, this is such a superb interpretation of the classic Sweeney Todd story. The puzzles are a delight; the flow of the gameplay is never stilted; and the set is atmospheric and crafted with care. In short, it has all the ingredients (*sigh) for a rather tasty escape room.

Really loved the theme of this game which was immersive but not at all scary. The puzzles were very creative and well tied in with the story. This game was quite challenging but great help from the host made for a really enjoyable experience.

Really good unique game Heard lots of good things and it lived up to its reputation Was our first game with them and it didn’t disappoint Our host was great too
We had a blast in this game, Its pretty big and you do have to keep moving, great hosting to give us the little nudges just when we needed them. having spoken to other owners on our travels this was reccomended to us on more than a few occasions and people telling us its in the top 3 games ever making it a must play game for us
When all was said and done, we scraped by in a really close time of 87 mins 23 secs – a close shave when the barber was due to return! All the games we’ve played at Mythologic have been pretty impressive but this one takes it to another level. Awesome scenery, great action, a brilliant mix of puzzles (and a massive volume of them too!), customer service continuing to be outstanding, and overall just a fabulous well-rounded experience. As a side note, this is my girlfriends first ever escape room (yeah, I know right?!), and its already given her the bug! So although I’d air this game towards slightly more experienced players given the volume of puzzles, its evident that a newcomer will enjoy it just the same (she was actually really good in the room too – insert jealous face emoji here!).
The set is truly impressive, in scale, ambition, engineering and authentic design. It feels genuinely expansive and travels very effectively through different facets of the Sweeney Todd story,
