You and the last remaining Vikings are entering the afterlife – but the news reaches you that because you didn’t die in battle or childbirth, you won’t be going to Valhalla. Your only chance of achieving this greatness is to appeal to the gods themselves.

Upon entering the hall of gods, you’re prepared to throw yourselves on their mercy and beg for help, but no one can be found.

With just one hour before the bridge to Valhalla closes for good, can you work together to summon the attention of the gods and save your soul? Good luck Vikings.

Decent room but hosting at Exeter left something to be desired. Visited the Central Birmingham branch the day before this and the difference was striking. We got out of the room in 30 minutes and the response from the host (a different one to when we went in) was β€˜Your time is 30:02 but we’re out of time cards. Was your locker number 1?’ We were left to sort out our own photo and leave. The game itself was fine, a couple of glitchy bits but it really was the (lack of) hosting which let it down. Rating is for the game.

This was our first time playing with at Escape Hunt Liverpool and the room was really well thought out, Less padlocks and a lot of puzzles that open the next clue with automatic magnetic locks. We escaped with 10 seconds remaining as a team of 2. So the last 10 minutes was quite stressful to make sure we got everything done in time. Best room we have played at Escape Hunt so far, story driven and had a flow to it. Host was really good and on hand if we needed the push in the right direction. We be a good family friendly room as there is plenty of physical puzzles for the younger ones to get involved in.

We were in Reading where there are so many great games, but we couldn't get into any of them.  Despite our misgivings we thought we'd give another Escape Hunt game a try - after all, it couldn't be that bad, could it?  It was.So many broken props and puzzles.  So many gaps where it was obvious something should have been there. A GM who didn't keep up with play.

Failed to get out because the GM kept missing what we had put where in the room. Utter shambles of a room (and GM).

We got off to a bad start when we arrived 15 mins before our game time but weren’t shown to our room until 15 mins after our start time. Our GM appeared to turn up late then had to go and prepare our room. Once inside puzzles were illogical, tech was broken and we felt stuck continuously. Not enjoyable in the slightest and for experienced players this felt like an overpriced game with very little in the way of puzzles and lacked any flow leaving us extremely frustrated at every turn.
