By far our favourite room we've done to date! Great build, unique and practical puzzles, very 'Crystal mazey' and not a padlock in sight! The most physical one we've done. Host Philip was amazing, stayed in character and interacted with us constantly. 5 stars all the way!
A great room, lots of chambers and little crawly spaces to get into. Some very hard puzzles, one of which we were told we are the only people ever to complete without a clue so... that was flattering.
Wow! This room was amazing our GM was great and stayed in character even when there was an alarm going off in the building. The ending was so clever I can't believe how magical it felt. Really reccomend this game

A great adventure game with a fun use of different levels and many new areas to discover. Theming was great and the puzzles were a lot of fun - the idea of having no written english in the game forced some cool ways of signposting puzzles. I wish there was a bit more to the ending, but generally had a lot of fun climbing around in here and think it's the best at the venue

great hostingepicquite difficult
Other World Escape's biggest and best room yet. A very well done Indiana Jones - style adventure theme with excellent attention to detail in the room construction and props.
We were slowed down on one of the big puzzles, which was tough for us, even as a relatively experienced team - several parts and people needed to get work through it. Great to be challenged with this inventive, physical room. The love and attention from the owner / designer definitely shines through!
