Last year Joey the naughty elf was jailed for crimes against Christmas when he scattered all the children’s letters to Santa and he was sent packing by you guys to elf jail in the South Pole. Now, a year on, Joey has been rehabilitated and Santa wants him to return to work. But Joey has different ideas, he wants revenge!
Can you find Joey and bring him back for Santa just in time for Christmas or will Joey’s revenge get the better of you?

Another fantastic Christmas room by EO, this is my favourite Christmas room that EO have done.  Lot's of different puzzles, well themed and as always Kelly the GM was fantastic.  Always a pleasure to visit EO.

value for moneygreat hostinglots of locksquite easy
A flowchart as to whether you should play this game before it closes at the start of Feb:
Do you like locks? If yes, play this room. If no; Do you like great puzzles; Yes - Play this room. No - What are you doing looking at escape rooms /s ?
Now for the actual review bit:For a room transformed from captive in just 6 weeks, boy has Kelly and her team smashed it. An absolute metric ton worth of puzzles, all logical with the right level of signposting. The set was great and the room is actually bigger than its predecessor Captive by utilising a little extra space, which the team have done very well indeed. All set dressing felt in theme (apart from a couple of rogue red splatters from Captive on the ceiling but you need to leave nods to past rooms in there somewhere!) 
Now..... this is the part that really screams that this is a good room. One of the locks was left unlocked on the right code for our game. Mistakes happen. The fact that I looked around (knowing the code) and knew exactly how I would get to it straight away meant that it didn't hinder the experience at all. In other rooms this would have been a deal-breaker but not at EO. Let's be honest we all forgot about it anyway, that's how good the rooms are.Whilst none of us did a "Kelly" (and we need to make this a phrase known across the community, not just at EO!!!!), we had some d'oh moments but only due to our own fault of not seeing the obvious!Massive shout-out to Kelly, Kodi and Lily for hosting us, there's something lovely about your style of hosting which other locations miss - straight forward, to the point and friendly.

Taking the space from the old captive game, Joey's Revenge is a sequel to a Christmas game from last year that I didn't get chance to play.  This is a fabulous game with lots of appropriately themed puzzles that should leave you with a wide grin on your face.   There are multiple areas which allow for some non-linear gameplay and there is a combination of both padlock and technical solutions.  Another great game from a company that really should  be on any enthusiasts (or anyone really) radar to visit.

Another Fantastic escape room by Kelly and the team at EO. Kelly is such an amazing host and her passion for escape rooms is infectious!.  We have played all rooms here and this one didn't disappoint. First escape room we had taken 2 kids under 6 to. Loads of fun imaginative puzzles which kept us all entertained. Would highly recommend.Well done!
