Our game master Johnathan was good fun and got things off to a perfect start.
Can't wait to try the other rooms!
We love detective type stories and this one delivered. It is quite easy and is probably best for beginners, but we also had fun.
Part one was really what we came for - the plot twist in part two was not really our cup of tea storywise, but the puzzles were fine and not hard. You could probably say that this escape game is more focused on the story than the puzzles and that makes it very inclusive also for a younger demographic.
Tech wise this is based on the telescape platform and it worked well all the way except for sounds, where some was very low in volume and some was very high in volume. Lots of videos used to create the story.
I played this with my after school STEM students and they loved it!! It was just hard enough for us. They are middle schoolers. Thank you!!
Brilliantly constructed game with great humour, highly recommend it.
Played solo, good fun.
Very entertaining and unique! Light-hearted and refreshing game, really good implementation into digital format.
Good room, some novel puzzles, and a good variety. Jack was a great host. So much so we booked to return the next day.
Reviews by escape room review sites
This is a really fun room with the ‘things to do’ element of the room meaning everyone can get really stuck in and feel properly involved. The clue system, as with Cryptology’s other rooms, is interactive and funny, and perfectly designed to fit in with the room’s story and theme, making it a thoroughly immersive experience. Additionally, as you progress through the room the pressure ramps up to encourage you to get everything solved in time. This is cleverly done and Hugh Dunnitt is a really enjoyable and commendable room!
