Step onto a pirate galleon in the middle of a battle for control of the High Seas. Your captain, the terrifying Blackbeard, has just been killed and his ship is shot to pieces and sinking fast.
With no chance of victory, you and your scurvy shipmates decide to jump ship – after helping yourself to the contents of Blackbeard’s legendary treasure chest.
You’ve broken into his cabin to grab all you can, but now the door has jammed shut and you’ve just 60 minutes to escape; any longer and you’ll drown – if the sharks don’t get you first.

Poor hosting not reflective on host herself, customer service and friendliness was good. Seemed to lack training/knowledge and was running 2 games at once which meant clues/activation of puzzles upon correct answers was delayed. Host didn't know correct answer to the puzzle when asking where we went wrong. Clue was incorrect as solution had been changed and the host was unaware.


Would be so much better if everything worked. Beautiful theming and some fun puzzels

If you don't like the smell of dirty water, you might feel a bit nauseous in this room! Personally for me, I thought the theming, even down to the smell, was just absolutely fantastic and so immersive. Personally my favourite pirate themed room I've done.

Your job is to sneak into the cabin of the recently deceased Captain Blackbeard and swipe his loot before the ship sinks; our gamemaster played the role of our confederate on the outside with gusto. Pirate themes always s...
Our least favourite game that we have played at Escape Hunt. The puzzles could have been really good but their execution was somewhat lacking. An enjoyable game overall however
