Bringing the best of 70s and 80s hits, RADIO NOWHERE is the place to be!
...until a body turns up in the booth.
It's a murder, that's for sure, and it's up to you to investigate! Identify suspects, narrow down your lines of investigation, and unscramble secret broadcasts. A pretty average case for you. But there’s a catch…
The show must go on!
This radio station is more than it seems, and with no-one else to man the decks, it's up to you to keep people listening. Line up your tunes, play the ultimate host, and close the case on Radio Nowhere!

Not your typical Escape Room, a very much immersive whodunnit but still good fun none-the-less. Our host Ronan was great fun and made the experience. 

If you like your detective games and less typical locks/puzzles, then this game is a must.

What a joy. Full immersion and we were really invested in the whole experience. We wanted to impress with our new DJ skills. 

The improv is something you need to embrace. Our host made it such a safe space for us to play and be ourselves. One of favourites from the UK for sure! Thank you for a wonderful day.

Get ready to ROCK! Not a room for the shy, retiring type who hates having fun and who dislikes any kind of creative thinking, this is such a hoot. It's not a padlocky room and while there are puzzles to solve, it's more the big puzzle picture that needs solving in here but the entertainment value just keeps on coming and it is very much 'what you make of it.'

It's a special room created by enthusiasts who wanted to do something a bit different; fans of the original 'Max Sinclair' game will love it.

Another absolute HIT!! Well done Case Closed! We drove 4.5 hours just to play this room (as we loved Max Sinclair so much) and we were not disappointed! Theming, set, hosting, story, EVERYTHING was spot on! Don't walk, run to Case Closed now!

Just go play this. Leave escape room preconceptions at the door, be prepared to embrace the story and throw yourself into the role you've been given and enjoy it. Ronan and Oryn who hosted us were superb and they just love to see people enjoying it too. Fantastic company, fantastic game, we need more of this!

Reviews by escape room review sites

Radio Nowhere can’t really be classed as an ‘escape room’, or not in my eyes anyway. It has a couple of puzzles but it’s perhaps closer to what I hear Jubensha is – kinda like a live-action whodunnit where the whole purpose is to piece together the information you need. Some people will love it, some probably not so much.

It’s true that I wouldn’t necessarily recommend this room to every escape enthusiast I encounter (for that more generic recommendation I’ll stick with Max Sinclair), but for the right team this is a real gem and on my personal “must play” in Scotland list.
