We’ve all been there – you’ve been looking round your favourite toy shop, taking in all the fantastic new things you could buy to play with, when suddenly you look over your shoulder and find the place is deserted.  You’ve lost track of time, the shop has closed and for some reason you’ve ended up locked inside!  Can you escape without alerting the owner or the authorities – the last thing you want is to find yourself against the long arm of the law!

Some interesting puzzles, but also one in particular that’s incredibly tedious (involving counting) that I really did not enjoy. Overall a decent game, good for kids.

Another hit by HourGlass. Great fun for experienced escapers and families alike. Great value for money and the GM's just make the experience that much better.

My 9yr old loves the theming of this room. I think a great family or first room. We still really enjoyed it as it’s so colourful and fun and some great puzzles.

We laughed so much through this game and had a wonderful time. The difficulty is more geared towards families so we managed to overthink many of the puzzles but absolutely loved it. Lovely theming and story line

Every time I attend this venue I want to go back to play more. Clever ideas. Toy shop is such a clever pretty room. The right balance of locks and tech. Some elements I haven’t seen before. Not too difficult and perfect for families. Highly recommend!
