Great use of space, range of puzzles and a neat little framing device that tied everything together. Enjoyed how this room naturally flowed into the other magical one, and how it could also be played in versus too.

Brilliant variation on the He-who-shall-not-be-named-because-copyright theme. Some nice puzzles, one element we had not seen in an escape room, and excellent hosting from Georgie. If you're in the area, do not miss this room!

We did this room as part of the VS rooms offering they have here. So we took two teams; one group did mystical creatures and our group did elixir vitae simultaneously. What we didn't realise and we were quite let down by, was that once one team finishes, the game is also over for the other team. It would be much better run in a way where the other team is allowed to finish but simply finds the elixir is already gone. Instead, a team who still has time left on the clock have their experience cut short. This aside, the room was great fun. All of the puzzles are well signed so that you know which puzzle chain things relate to and everything had a great flow to it. The GM was great and only gave subtle hints at appropriate times when we had completely derailed ourselves. There was a great variety of puzzle types and everything fit well within the theme which was very magical and immersive. Nothing felt illogical or convoluted and even the complete beginners were able to get stuck in.
