This is a fabulous game and worth the trip to Worthing! You are participants in a game show where the objective is to win the most money (or is it...) This is a puzzle fest but each puzzle is chosen for you at random, complete that one and move onto the next, you can be working on multiple puzzles at once as some puzzles are really only solvable by one person.
Our host was Olive who was excellent throughout and kept up the suitable frenetic energy continuously. This may not be the best puzzle fest game but it's very much worth your time with a fun spin on a format.
A very well executed "collection" game. Well worth the travel to visit.
What a game! Stacks to do, well-designed puzzles and soooo much fun!
We loved the concept, loved the hosting, loved the wacky hullabaloo of the whole experience; it's a puzzle-fest that will result in a slightly different game every time you play and I'd happily walk right back in and play it all over again.
We played as a 5 and that was fine. I think it would happily take 4 - 6 people and still give a good game even for enthusiasts.
Really really enjoyed it! Well done!
What a game! This is a puzzlefest style room with fantastic puzzles throughout, funny references and a great set. Our host Jamie was brilliant and I just had a brilliant time. The ending was tense and exciting, just wish we had some more time to crack on with the earlier stage of the game. This is similar to Quick E-Mart although I found this a better game, mainly down to its production level and great puzzles. All round fantastic, and not to be missed!
We had such a good time playing this room - the hosting was spot on (and extremely funny) and had us involved from the start. The kids absolutely loved it. Lots of different puzzles to work on. I like how there should be a potential to replay it based on how it is set up.
Was inspired to play this room based on Stacey’s post. So glad I did. The game was so much fun! It hit the sweet spot for us as we got the game references. I agree, happily be in top 10 due to the fun factor. Amazing host Jamie who took the experience up another notch. Play this game!
Easily in my top 10. This is an unmissable room and I’m bemused to why it hasn’t been more promoted amongst enthusiasts. The experience starts right from the beginning when looking for the venue. The hosting was superb, our hosts enthusiasm was genuinely infectious. I’ve only played one room that’s roughly similar to this one - CNTRL - AlT - ESCAPE’s Kwik e Mart and with every respect to that great room, this one imo blows it out of the water. Not only do you get a game show but there’s a twist at the end which although hinted at throughout is kinda cool when it happens. Beautifully aesthetic room/set with some awesome puzzles. Kicking ourselves for taking too long on one puzzle meaning we were minutes away from competing with the top score our friends got later in the day. They did it with one extra person though so we won’t lose too much sleep about it. Absolutely superb. Enthusiasts must play.
Brilliant room, great hosting. Amazing, fun concept which will allow a replay at a later date too. Kids loved it too (6&9 years old)
