Unsolved Mysteries: The Cabin

Really fun game, the hosts were awesome and it's a perfect venue too for a horror game, as Fort Amherst is haunted apparently!

Did 4 escape rooms with these hosts, all in one day. All were great but this room and its sequel, The Basement, were my favourites. Amazing unique setting in a Napoleonic fort, which makes for an amazing atmosphere! Never really done any rooms with live actors before and I worried it’d be too “horror” for my tastes, but not to worry, no jump scares here, just a really immersive creepy and story-driven room. Good puzzles. Will be looking out for what room they open next. 

Absolutely loved this room. The host and cast here are fantastic and the theming is excellent!

I will start by saying this is my favourite all round escape room I have done along with the follow on escape room called the basement 

The host Bradley was great starting you off getting you immersed in to the story of what has happened and what you could be expecting from this serial killers cabin 

Theming and details on point it looks outstanding 

Amazing puzzles though out which are all fun and relatable and all quite different from each other 

Loads of twist and turns along the way with some outstanding elements and surprises 

Very immersive and a great story behind it as soon as it finished I said if the follow up escape room (the basement) is free now then get me in there and take my money !! 

Spoiler alert it was and that was also outstanding 

Highly recommended! But book both at same time trust me you will not be disappointed lol 

Had a great time when we played this game.  Hosts were great, brilliant build quality, nice theming on the puzzles and good plot.  Really enjoyed both this and The Basement that we did straight after it.  Its not hugely scary but was definitely on edge all the way through it expecting the unexpected!  Some amazing little finishing touches that I still don't get how they did them!

Its slightly dark in points which can be awkward on the eyes but all in all I felt it worked really well.

Definitely do this and then The Basement too!

This company is the gold standard for our little team - and one we constantly recommend to people, even if they don't live local to Kent!

The concept, layout and décor of the rooms are impeccably done and completely immersive.  It's not scary, but it's so realistic that the creepiness adds such a tense unease to the atmosphere.  The puzzles are also beautifully integrated into the concept of the room and they are some of the more interesting ones that out team have done.  

This does have a live actor in the game, and it really adds to the experience.  The whole team at this site are passionate about the rooms and that shines through!

My first room with a live actor. A very well designed experience. Great theming and use of puzzles. Highly reccommend it.

A super nice room: immersive, communicative involvement of the acting, versatile puzzles and super nice hosts who took a lot of time for us afterwards. Overall, it was a lot of fun! Thanks to Charlotte and Bradley!

I really enjoyed this room - the set is absolutely superb, and it had the best method of using a gamesmaster inside of the game to deliver clues in any room I've ever done. Enjoyed the puzzles, we seemed to click with them really well and got a very decent time indeed. 

We loved the cabin, Roo & Bradley were on had to help out, the games got a little bit of a creepy thing going on and we are excited to get back to play the basement.

This was superb - probably one of my favourite rooms. Immersion and set details are absolutely top notch, and the live actor really adds to the experience (note: they are not there to scare you!). 

Puzzles are slightly on the easy side sometimes, but there is enough to do and they are imaginative and unique enough, while fitting in with the theme well. 

Roo and Charlotte, the hosts, were brilliant. Very inviting and captured the mood instantly. The room is very well designed and use of actor integral to the story. It was probably on the easier side for us as a little more experienced, we don’t even tend to focus on times so surprised we finished so early. Story had great flow and puzzles made sense! 

Despite having a live actor, this is not a scary game. The way that this actor used is incredibly clever and really makes the game. (Nothing else said to avoid spoilers). 

The set is one of the best I’ve ever seen and genuinely transports you to the creepy setting in which the story is based. 

Throughout there’s a great mix of puzzles (observational, physical, logic) all fitting within the theme. 

Very highly recommend!

The actual building this game is set in is amazing and the owners have made the lobby area very inviting. The setting for this game is stunning and it helps set the creepy scene. The ending was very stressful but in a different kind of way. We enjoyed the puzzles and this room. Rob and Nicki (apologies if we spelt your names wrong) are fantastic hosts and are really trying to cater to enthusiasts with unique rooms. We are looking forward to part 2!

Loved this room, such a unique use of a live actor who was fabulous and added to the experience. Unique puzzles, great hosting and excellent build quality. Loved it! Over 200 games played it’s by far my favourite

A nice twist on the traditional 'cabin in the woods' which gives the game a whole new dimension and your hints become part of the narrative and not just text on a screen. Combine that with some well-themed puzzles and very good acting and you have a great immersive game.
My only niggle is that its abit tight in places for larger teams, I wouldn't recommend playing with more than 4. 

I will say I'm not a fan of horror/scary games or jump scares for that matter so it was with a little bit of trepidation I stepped into the cabin knowing .  The set build is gorgeous and onpoint throughout, the puzzles are also clever and on brand but it is the interaction with the actor and you do have to interact with them in order to escape the game.  it was well played and added to the tension, they will also act as your hint system as well if you need it, its all really very well done.  This is not Butcher or Edith, so don't let the fact there's an actor in there put you off.

We absolutely loved this room! Set in the old fort building, the atmosphere and theming are fantastic. 

Having a live actor who isn’t there to scare you is a great idea and Bradley really acted his part brilliantly. 

There was just the right level of creepiness (I don’t like rooms that are too scary as it stops me focusing on the puzzles). 

This is definitely in my top 5 games. 

5* Amazing game! 

Absolutely loved this room! Straight to the top of my list. Fully immersive experience, surprises around every corner and with some really creative puzzles.  Every stage of this game kept you believing in the theme.  The live actor was brilliant and added to the overall immersion of this amazing game!  All the puzzles fitted within the theme and story and this was one of the best sets I have played.

We have played 170 escape rooms. We heard about the live actor experience in this game that was not the usual ‘scare actor’ in some rooms. Intrigued, we booked and were not disappointed! Can’t say too much about the live actor but it added a whole other level to the game play and experience overall! So so clever. The puzzles were great - around half of which we had not seen before which was refreshing and exciting. The set itself is absolutely brilliant. So immersive and set the atmosphere so well. Throughly enjoyed and glad that they live up to the sister company Hysteria Escape rooms high level.
