Step into the future. Enter the offices of ChronosCorp HQ, where eccentric billionaire Alastair Montague’s efforts to develop commercial time travel have caused a tear in the fabric of space and time. The Cybermen are ready to take advantage and attack Earth.

You, the Doctor’s friends, must investigate the incident. The remains of Montague, his prototype time engine and the extensive collection of time-related artefacts acquired over the course of his experiments, are all that you have to work with.

In just 60 minutes the Cybermen will break through. The fate of the universe is in your hands. Take too long and the human race will be β€œupgraded”.

I didn't realise escape rooms could be this bad. It shouldn't be allowed - if this was your first escape room ever, you'd never do another one.
Half the puzzles didnt work and were out of action, effectively written out of the game, there was zero chance you woudl complete this without practically being talked through it by the game master. It was horrendous. So bad that as soon as we walked out, we booked another room somewhere else in Reading. Couldn't leave on such a downer

Simply put, great to look at If your a Whovian. Unfortunately this didn't make up for the cornucopia of broken puzzles, tedious linear nature of the room and the many times we had moments that the theme demanded we wasted time to do something that was not productive.The broken tech may not have been such an issue were it not for the fact that we had to tell the GM many times it was broken before they finally came and fixed it, due to the linear nature of the room this involved us having nothing to do for nearly 10 minutes.

Everything within this game was broken. Stuff overridden a lot by the GM.

1% being told to mind your attitude'

Only went as I received a gift voucher from my class, 2 adults ended up frustrated, 2 kids ended up bored as nothing for them to do. Several elements not even used though they appeared as we progressed! Avoid this room and Escape Hunt in general, there are much much better games!
