Such great fun! Loads to look at, search through and find. Set was fab, and the hosts are really friendly. Would highly recommend!

Without doubt, this is one of the best looking and feeling games in the UK. Unfortunately the puzzles and tasks are as exceptionally weak as the set-dressing and effects are strong. About 70% of what you're required to do is basic searching. A significant time-sink is an almost completely out of context pen and paper logic puzzle. And one of the final answers is essentially guess work. I left feeling thoroughly disappointed at what could have been.

Another beautifully designed and immensely fun and unique game to play with some delightful humour, slightly curious final puzzle that I wasn't quite convinced about, but that is such a small detail in an otherwise great room.

Great little room, love the secret passages that lead you to the next room! Very clever set! Could end a little better, was a bit of an anti climax... (looking at partner questioning, have we finished?)

This was a great room - the set is fantastic, the intro is hilarious. Enjoyed the logic puzzle that was thrown in. Went clue free which turned out to be a mistake as we discarded a couple of important things when doing our searching (it is search heavy), but GMs did decide to put us back on track when we got to an impasse - timed well it seems as we then literally made it out at 59:59. Had really good fun playing this room and definitely recommend the venue.

I didn’t even notice the joke in the game’s name until the intro began, but if you’re quicker on the uptake then you’ll have guessed that the setting for One Wing is the most budget of airlines. While the in-world plane may be budget, the game itself certainly isn’t - DarkMaster have developed a reputation for their impressive set designs.

In this instance the technology is most vividly on display early on, setting the scene with some dramatic and entertaining effects. Impressive though that wa...

For us, there was a bit too much going on in this game which meant we couldn’t focus on what we needed and ended up missing key things. DarkMaster are certainly up there with the best for their set design, but I think the puzzles left us wanting a bit more.

I didn’t expect to feel faintly airsick while firmly at ground level in a warehouse in Crowborough. But the level of detail DarkMaster has managed to manifest is astonishing

A traditional escape room that is delivered in a flawlessly immersive setting. One of the funniest rooms we have played thanks to the absolutely brilliant flight motion simulator.
