We were recommended this company by the GM at Escape Boats. A great shout.

This was a solid room with nice theming, well decorated and with great puzzles. Not the most original, seeing as it's Sherlock Holmes themed, but the puzzles were interesting and unusual and everything flowed logically. We managed to escape with no clues, even if it did take us a few minutes to "get" the last puzzle.

The GM, Daisy, was great - really enthusiastic, knowledgeable and fun to chat to.

This Sherlock Holmes room is your traditional escape room atmosphere and flow in the heart of the Libertines. We played this room as a 4, with my parents and it was the perfect room to book for the occasion as it has a very strong family friendly feeling.

The room has a lot of nicely thought clues that would fill your 60 minutes of escape room, I believe we escaped with 12 minutes left, so still a decent time. The puzzles were really smart with some great ah-ha moments, really satisfying. One puzzle though, was quite unusual as any experienced players would probably not attempt to complete it as it felt like cheating; it could even give new players some bad habits, but it was really the only one that surprised us.

We also really like the clue system, it stays in theme and the one clue we received was pretty and helpful. The background audio was true to the room as it was using the music from the series.

Incognito felt like a very nice and welcoming company, even though we arrived late! I highly recommend if you are in Dublin over the Libertines and searching for something to do in the evening. πŸ™‚ The room is open to 8 players max but would really not recommend it, 4 players would be the maximum amount of players this room could be enjoyable, in my opinion, as there is not that much space!

Incognito is a company I narrowly missed out on visiting when I last passed through Dublin, so I was glad to have a chance to try one of their games remotely. Baker Street Mystery is the only one they’ve converted for avatar play so far, and I suspect they chose it because it’s a classic style of game, a Sherlock Holmes theme with furniture and locks.

Our goal was to crack one of Holmes’ unsolved cases, a gangland murder where we need to find the names of the victim and the perpetrator. The int...
