Break Escape Nottingham: Orbital

This is, objectively, a super game, with flashy tech galore and a very clever, immersive use of space. The story element of the game is fantastic and the gameplay is inventive... but not a padlock in sight. The lack of padlocks works seamlessly with the game but we are self-confessed padlock people who - when faced with stacks of tech - become clueless, confused and with hooves instead of hands. Put short, the tech doesn't suit us.

This is, despite our proclivity for locks and keys,an excellent game nevertheless and pushes the envelope in many ways.

Very well thought out.

Great room! I love space and so was fitting for me and liked the use of no padlocks!

Wow! There's a good reason why this room has become the highest scoring room in Nottingham, it's quite simply fantastic. The build quality is impressive, game play is fairly non-linear and an excellent variety of puzzles, some of which we hadn't seen before. This game provides 'a-ha' moments by the bucketful. Just when you think the game is over, more happens to shoot the adrenaline straight back up!

Hosting was fantastic (Adam), he really knows his stuff! He has hosted both our visits to Break Escape and was great on both occasions.

This genuinely is a must play for any enthusiast.

This is an excellent sci-fi themed game that features a non-linear approach so your party can split up and work on different puzzles.  This is also a very hi-tech room and not a padlock in sight.  This reminded me a bit of Enchanted Forest at their Loughborough branch but I think this one is better.  A phenomenally fun game with a lot of great ideas and puzzles.  Recommended.

The second of ten rooms we did in Nottingham at the weekend ended up being my joint favourite of the ones we did. 

I always enjoy an escape room in space. This was a beautiful and high-tech room with a mix of easier and harder puzzles that, in the main bulk of the room, could be solved in a non-linear way. I liked how immersive it was, and some of the little touches in gameplay were super. The ending was fun. I have seen similar things in other rooms, but it was still a delight each time. 

Accessibility: Fine in the room, but there's a staircase to make your way up to get to the venue. 

A fantastic addition to Nottinghams escape room scene. Fantastic puzzles, brilliant theming,  and so much to do! Suitable for all ages, non linear (for the most part), and just a genuinely fun time!
