Great hosting with a warm welcome and a sense of humour, always starts our visit off well. Top quality room with lots to do! Nice, fun side project that would keep younger team members busy. Clue system was highly entertaining and the theming/props were bang on target. Some new and very clever puzzles we hadn't seen before.
Also of note was the re-use of a previous space later in the game - this annoyed us immensely in another game at another site but was so well done here it really added to the story.
A great fun room with plenty for beginners and experienced players to get their teeth into!

Room one of ten in our Nottingham weekend extravaganza and it was an excellent room to start with.
Beautiful room with some decent puzzles. Fun is definitely the name of the game here and it would be superb for families as a first foray into escape rooms as it gives you a bit of everything. It even has a task to keep younger folk busy while the elders are solving the puzzle. Frustratingly for this element we were one item off completing in full.
Accessibility info - there’s a stairway up to Break Escape. The room itself does need some dexterity in the later stages. Exit easier than entry.
There are some wonderfully clever puzzles in this game that gave us a few issues figuring out what they wanted but we had a great time doing so. Theming is once again very good and this is a fun light hearted room.

A magical journey through the chocolate factory with a large variety of puzzles despite the games small footprint. One aspect was very physical but was enjoyable and fun.
The room is quite small, I wouldn’t recommend a team larger than 4 and watch out for the path in the first room, I must have tripped at least 5 times on it!
Really immersive game that takes you on an exciting adventure! There are a number of surprises that will surely delight every member of the team. Certainly a family friendly game that has elements that will keep every player occupied. Would recommend.
Absolutely amazing so magical perfect for all ages I would say. Host was amazing and the experience was fantastic overall! I’ve played 50 rooms and this was by far one of my favourite rooms and an incredible use of the space! Thank you guys we will be back xx

Such a fun game, it's hard to review it without giving away the WOW moments. Just go try it for yourself! I'd say it's perfect for all ages, but if you have kids, definitely take them!
A nice game from Break Escape and a nice use of the limited space they have within this room. Some of the puzzles were really nice and well in theme. One part of the game is quite physical. However there was a couple of mag locks that either weren't closed correctly or broken. As when we entered we noticed a door was unlocked (hanging on by a carabiner clip with a mag lock) we asked the GM if this was meant to be open or closed to which the GM responded it won't close. So we left it, there was another thing that wasn't magnatised properly aswell. I will also mention the room itself is incredibly hot inside, and we played on a cold and rainy evening so I'd hate to know how hot it will be in there in July. Even with the ceiling fans on we was still very warm.Overall though a nice game, with some nicely themed puzzles within. Definitely a game to play if your in the area already. I would also like to add our GM Phoebe did do a fantastic job at hosting aswell.
Excellent theming, great immersion, beautiful attention to detail and, as with my experiences at Break Escape lots of tactile puzzles. We encountered a couple of elements we'd not yet seen in an escape room, and a lovely use of lighting that felt really magical. Expect a higher level of physicality than most rooms! We played this in the days shortly after launch and it's evident there were a few teething problems, including a couple of issues with tech not quite working as intended that meddled a little with the flow, but I have every faith these will be rectified.

A sugar-coated gem of a game that provides magic moments and a delicious all-round experience. The combination of the signature Break Escape creative flair with the flawless theming and superb puzzles are the recipe for an absolute treat.
