Step into Wonderland, where the Hatter has been accused of stealing the Queen’s Tarts. With Alice nowhere to be seen, it’s time for you to fill her shoes.
You find yourself at the Hatter’s cottage. The table is set but no one is around.
A sign on the lawn reads ‘Tea Party Cancelled by Royal Decree’. Curiouser and curiouser…
Find and return the Queen’s Tarts in 60 minutes, or it’s off with the Hatter’s head. Chop chop.

illogicalbroken techpoor hosting

Again another poor hosting experience from escape hunt Basingstoke 

First room was not to bad to look at but when you went though in to the house it was very plain with no details with puzzles that was very boring and did not make much sense with some broken tech also 

Not recommended!

Majority of the game was great, we had a good host. Some parts of the game are faulty/misleading.

Reviews by escape room review sites

Whilst Alice in Puzzleland is available to play at multiple sites across the UK, we chose the closest to London: Reading. During our experience there, we were led by the Cheshire Cat (played by the awesome Games Master Hamish) through the rabbit hole and into the magical world of Wonderland.


Our GM declared we were the best team he had ever seen play this game. But actually...

As members of the Association for Group Travel Organisers, we were invited to take part in an AGTO Eastern Region team-building event at Escape Hunt. Our mission was to find some missing cakes in time to stop the Mad Hatter losing his head.
Overall, a really good game with some lovely game play and well designed props. Escape Hunt Resorts World is based in the middle of a shopping centre which felt very unusual but means there are lots of people and passing trade.
We headed down to Puzzleland via Oxford to help save the Mad Hatter from Execution! Sinister stuff! See if we managed to find the Queen’s Tarts and what we thought about our Alice in Wonderland themed experience.
