An incredibly unique premise and a really fun start to the game by watching a short film in a room that could easily be mistaken for a real cinema (minus the puzzles of course). I thought the transition from the end of the film to the start of the game could've been stronger and that the puzzles could've been more on theme at times. Puzzles wise there was a good mix of observation, patterns, physical and they all utilised the space well. Realistically this game sits somewhere between a 3.5 and 4 for me but rounded down due to using QR codes in the room as the hints system... so weird!

You must opt in for the movie at the start! Not to be missed. Great puzzles and really immersive theming. Maybe needs a bit more theming in some of the additional areas to really hammer home that you're going behind the scenes but overall a really really strong and enjoyable room with surprises!

Due to my escape partners hate of being scared in rooms after a traumatising experience in a catacombs, we played this room with no live scares but the room and themeing is brilliant at inducing a creepiness that I can imagine is intensified with the live scares. I think it's great that players have the option of the level of scare factor at point of purchase. Now this room is masterfully immersive in the fact it feels just like a cinema and the trailer introductions are amazing and creatively introduce the fear factor...plus some genius surprise effects! I feel the transition to the start of the game was lacking and a missed opportunity to utilise the great cinematography to link the film to the room. The darkness of the room is completely in theme and never at the detriment to completing the room. The darkness contributes to the scare factor and I can imagine a great opportunity for live scares. Another linear and padlock heavy room so again I wouldn't recommend big groups. The puzzles are mixed with teamwork, communication, logical deduction and skill. Unreached potential that could make this a stand out in the whole of Britain but still an excellent room!

Amazing overall! Having played over 100 this is one of the best I have been too and my family agree with me on that also. Soon entering the room I was so shocked I thought I entered a real cinema definitely recommend this to anyone who is coming down to Romford!
