In 1972 a space ship crash landed into the Mojave desert in Nevada. The United States Secret Service swiftly transported the wreckage to Area 51. Scientists studied the life-forms found on-board for years and discovered that they called themselves the Kryllians. Over time the Kryllians and the scientists seemed to grow a close bond and shared information with eachother about eachothers world. The scientists believed that the Kryllians would be humans first inter-gallactic ally. That was until the Kryllians revealed their true intentions. They were not befriending us they were anaylising the planet. They established our strengths and weakness and how to combat us so they could take over our world.

You and your team have 60 minutes to stop the Kryllians from escaping and taking over the world. Have you got what it takes?

This venue is aimed at being something for the community and is reflected in the price. Sadly, even the price wasn't enough to make this an enjoyable experience. 

The online story did not match the objective when entering the room. In the room, we were told we needed to open a door and pull a lever after releasing a wrench. Sadly, there was no need for a wrench as you could easily just undo the the bolts by hand and the lever was in fact  an old chest of drawers with a piece of 2x4 screwed in the top. 

Now, I don't have a problem with a room on a budget... when it's done well. Budget and passion can create something alright for beginners, but I'm disappointed to say that if this was my first escape room experience, I probably wouldn't play another. 

Add fifty quid and a bit of passion and this room could have possibly been made from a 1 star to a 3 star
