Pier Pressure Bracknell: Siege of Spellbreak Bank

 This is a well designed room with a really good set and a fun story, but some of the puzzles didn't really felt like they flowed very well and/or were so obscure that I am not totally sure how you "get there" thought process wise or the answer didn't present itself conclusively enough for you to know it was the right direction. We have done quite a few rooms and usually with no, or maybe only 1 clue, but this one felt like we were reliant on many clues or confirmations in order to finish. 

This is my favourite room at Pier Pressure Bracknell! it's absolutely fantastic and extremely magical! So many clever elements that I haven't seen in a magic room before and the games hosting was so funny and immersive. 

First Pier Pressure game we have played since they took over Puzzalogical and we were not disappointed. Our games master, David,  was welcoming and friendly from the get go which always makes part of the experience. The game itself had a great storyline and a variety of puzzles to solve. A lot of time and attention to detail has gone into the room and we had great fun not only exploring and solving the mission but it was also nice to talk to our GM about some of the puzzles and how they work afterwards. As a team of 3 we completed Siege of Spellbreak Bank in a total time of 52:12 with no clues. I would definitely recommend this game to other escape enthusiasts aswell as families as we learned there were different difficult levels for this game with less complex puzzles for children.

This game was less than a couple of weeks old when we played it so maybe it was having a couple of teething problems 

We had a padlock that would not open meaning the host had to come in to the room taking away from abit of the immersion 

Then after that we had one of the wands stop working and was told to just your are phone light on one of the puzzles not ideal 

There was some cleaver tech in the room with some ok puzzles 

Fantastic game with fantastic hosting! 

Super super clever room with lots of originality, definitely worth the wait and ALOT better than the vault room which this has replaced.
