I don't want to give any spoilers - but this is not your standard escape room. Escape is not the main aim of this challenge... survival is. And the game starts before you even walk through the door.
We were lucky enough to be four test subjects on Sunday evening, as they are just getting everything ready. We had a fully immersive, unforgettable experience. Absolutely superb.

Hm. Not quite sure how to rate this one - found it quite frustrating in some parts, but often it was because we just hadn’t remembered some rules we’d been given which weren’t entirely intuitive. I think I would’ve enjoyed it more if I’d played more by this brand first, which seems to have some very interesting concepts, and I enjoy its exploring/building a lot, and the app is good. Hoping to play more by this brand to test this theory!

I was very underwhelmed by the first section of this game. Thankfully we did it rather quickly and the game got a lot more interesting. The second section of the game looked amazing, had some very interesting puzzles and use of space. Apparently, most teams don’t do the first section as quickly which seems like a shame. They’re definitely missing the best parts of the game.

A brilliant room. We absolutely loved it. So glad we found it and fitted it in on our day to London. Our host Nadia was lovely, really thorough and easy to follow. The game followed its theming and storyline throughout. We knew from before we were sent in exactly what we needed to achieve, we just didn’t know how to achieve that. It’s definitely a game that really makes you think which we like because it’s so much more satisfying when you complete it. There was one part where we really didn’t know where to start but after a quick clue to set us off everything flowed really well. I think the only negatives I would give are that the background music is louder than it needs to be which makes it harder to communicate amongst the team but more importantly harder for everyone to hear what’s being said on the walkie talkie

Possibly the most fun we’ve had in an escape room! The theme is on point as well as the puzzles and anyone who’s played it I’m sure will have just wanted to constantly press that button as much as we did!

Our first ever enigma room, we were recommended here by another escape room we did!
Overall it is incredible, completely immersive and fully themed throughout the entire journey!
The clue system is very on theme and clever too, we were told this one is different to the other 3 rooms here!
The puzzles were just right difficulty wise and there were multiple that could be solved at once, there was always plenty for us to do!
We also had a nice chat with our host afterwards and will definitely be coming back for the other rooms now!

A fun and enjoyable game to play. Not the most challenging puzzles we’ve seen in an escape room but definitely enough variety to get the brain working. Don’t make the same mistake we did of putting a box down somewhere and forgetting it needed unlocking though!
