What a fun room! The puzzles were surprisingly challenging and there are quite a lot of them but it was something that felt a bit different to the usual. We're cat people so naturally loved the theme and we tore through this room as a two (and it would be a bit cramped with a bigger team).
You’ve promised The Crazy Cat Lady you’ll look after her cats while she is away. In one hour she’ll be home and all six cats have been mischievous and are missing. You have one hour to find the cats and get out of her house before she returns.
So first thing – theming on this room is excellent. It’s entirely cat obsessed, as one would expect from the title. There are a myriad of little touches that add to an experience of complete cat overwhelm. It’s very family friendly, with just one “jump scare” (more of a surprise, not horror).
This room does have a nice variety of on theme puzzles that blended with the theme, but was still relatively reliant on coded padlocks in a way that didn’t quite let everything flow. Some people may have accessibility issues with some of their puzzles.
One point to note is that Chesterfield Escape Rooms have a philosophy of including quite a lot of redundant information that plausibly could provide a solution to the clues. Ostensibly this is done to create authenticity. For larger groups, this is unlikely to be a major issue, since by dividing and conquering these can be relatively quickly eliminated. For smaller groups, it can be frustrating!
Overall a good room that should appeal to almost any group of players (although more than 4 would likely be too crowded).
This room was quite different and very theme-driven. There were some cool touches, quite a lot of puzzles to get through, and a weird amount of rhyming.
Another humourus game from Gatwick Escapes. Don't play this company's games if you're not prepared to poke fun at yourselves and have a bit of a giggle. I do prefer a larger room (not sure why as plenty was packed in) but if you need cheering up, this is a great light hearted fun game for all!
Great room for our 5 and 8 year olds. Fun story, great set and some original puzzles. A little frustration with 1 key not fitting a lock very easily but overall a great game!!

It is a kooky, cartoony space, not huge but fine for the three of us, full of charming cat-related decor. It might be deliberately kitsch
