A small room with lots of props and set dressing.  Lots to do, and some complicated multipart puzzles.  Lighting was a little dark.  Fun room with good hosting

great hosting

A classic escape room with a lot of familiar tropes.  This game is very padlock heavy and the puzzles are a combination of searching and logical deduction.  Theming is ok and is enough to convey the ideas and story behind the room.  Our host was Brad who clued us when we needed to and ran the game incredibly well.

While this isn't the biggest room in terms of floor plan, it's a great game with lots of lovely padlocks and some clever puzzles in a really delightful space.

Went with my husband for my birthday. I loved it! Definitely worth the visit and it's perfect for just 2-3 people as the room is not too big. The puzzles are ok, not too difficult as some other escape rooms we did in other places. I think we only needed like two or three clues.

We will go back for sure!

Great room for our 5 and 8 year olds' fourth room. Pretty easy but some great setting and props and nice puzzles.

Fantastic hosting as always from the team here. We’ve done several escape rooms at several different venues and the hosting is always far and away the best at Kingston Escape Rooms - attentive, helpful and humorous. The room itself is great fun and we loved all the different costumes to put on. Lots of padlocks to deal with and no big surprises but it’s a reliably satisfying solve with excellent theming.
