Jam packed full of puzzles! Loved the sense of clear progress throughout and the lots of cute, fun little puzzles throughout. Definitely as others have said play part 1 and 2 back to back to get the full effect.
Candyland 1 and 2 was played back to back. The first part of our journey was about saving the production of 4 sweets. It started fairly linear and then branched to the 4 different machines. The room had props, searching and links between solving puzzles. It was colourful and entertaining. We were 58 seconds from the fastest time and didn’t expect it as we don’t normally worry about time!
We had so much fun at this venue and were very lucky to have Kerry as our wonderful host. She very kindly let us play all 4 rooms back to back. We felt like little children racing around with playful and traditional puzzles. You can see the love gone into creating the area.
A glorious, candy-coloured puzzle bonanza. We had high hopes for this one, having read such great reviews and we were not disappointed; we found ourselves tearing around this room to get to more delicious puzzles!
It's a nice challenge for a team of two enthusiasts and there are plenty of puzzles to go round.
One of the best rooms I've done. Top 5 for sure. You must do candyland 1 and 2 back to back for the true epic-ness of these rooms. You can tell this very unique room was a labour of love by the owner. It's a little tough for 2 people and they advise you should do it as a team of 4 as there is so much to be getting on with.
We loved both the Pressure Point games we have done previously so this one had a lot to live up to and it did not dissappoint. Really clever and a massive range of puzzles to try. In fact I am not sure I have done any room with so much to do! Great theming and a very clever idea.
huge quantity of puzzles and very fast pace, along with a good storyline... really enjoyed this room. Although there is a sequence, there is plenty of room for teams to split up, keeping the whole team involved.... highly recommended
I loved Candyland, from the epic briefing video (and apparently he was completely sober!) to the brightly coloured sweets this is a warm hug of an escape room. It perfect for 4 people, but I think its doable by less if you're experienced and are prepared to split up as it doesn't look like theres alot but the puzzles are plentiful. Loved it.
A fun family puzzlefest set in a magical land of candy and chocolate. A video briefing perfectly sets the scene and you're off to save Candyland. This is another puzzlefest style of game where there are a lot of puzzles that can be tackled in a non-linear manner. The game builds to a skill based denouement that varies with the size of the group you take in.
