Fantastic tech and layered challenging puzzles, definitely one for enthusiasts.

Quite disappointing, lacklustre set and puzzles for the theme of choice.
Played: 11 Oct 2026 Team size: 4
Lots of varied rooms, very faithful to the movie, just showing it's age, needs some TLC and a few puzzles that require a clue to be solved need to be fixed
Played: 18 Sep 2026
Full of surprises, there was a great variety of rooms and things to see and do, only let down by slightly more basic puzzles than their last room age of magic.

Another unique room at escape boats thanks to the unusual setting, but also nice racing mechanic and some special puzzles

Great story, clean puzzles, fantastic tech and wow moments reminded me of European rooms, must play if near Cardiff 

Played: 2 Aug 2026 Team size: 2

The second room I've played from these guys, the puzzles are a little logic jumpy / guessy / red herring-y for our liking, but the venue and sets are really impressive and it's always very immersive.

This is puzzle dense room with plenty to crack on with, felt a little punished for asking for clues but that's a fun mechanic for those who want bonus content and are fast!

Played: 17 Apr 2026
Incredible levels of immersion, an absolute top tier set and some pretty scary moments, this was one intense but special room, not puzzle dense but a really amazing lead experience.

Great sets and one of the best rooms for puzzles fitting with a clear story. Plenty of surprises along the way!
Played: 3 Feb 2026 Team size: 4

A must play if you're in the Bath area, a worthy second room to Eternal Life with lots of great twists and turns!

Great sets, very physical puzzles, good fun!

Theatrical times with lots of dramatic moments and cool bits, shame it's closing!
Played: 28 Dec 2025 Team size: 5

A different take on the escape room format with more puzzles than you can complete in the time - all in high tech format with plenty of hidden bonuses. A puzzle enthusiasts dream with a guaranteed action packed full hour but could frustrate completionists and overwhelm newbies!

Incredible sets, so much to see and do. Some big wow moments makes this an a must visit when you're in Belgium!

Another solid room from Riddlr - nice sets, puzzles matched with the narrative, just felt a bit too much reliance on four digit codes for a new room
Played: 27 Aug 2025 Team size: 2

Lovely varied set with a great intro, we just struggled a little to find our flow with the puzzles, a little too reliant on searching and moving objects for our preferences.

Played: 10 Aug 2025 Team size: 5
Brilliant sets, loads of great varied puzzles, some really cool tech. I'm so impressed by this company for their first room, and very happy it's my 150th room, will definitely be back for their second.
Played: 1 Aug 2025 Team size: 6
Loads to do for a large group, we loved the lots of little dramatic moments that made this a really fun game to play. Really helpful owners who kindly ran our game late when we were stuck in traffic!
Played: 27 Jul 2025 Team size: 2
Lots of great technology and surprises! Very enjoyable room. Lovely owners who were keen to show us all the behind the scenes!
Played: 27 Jul 2025 Team size: 2
A fun room full of physical puzzles, quite a few things we've not seen before. Really enjoyed this as a 2.
Played: 11 Jul 2025 Team size: 4

A departure from Escape Plan's usual themes, this was a really fun room with a few unique mechanics including giving players some choices. Lovely accommodating host. Tricky puzzles that probably wouldn't be suited to new players.

Played: 30 May 2025 Team size: 2
A really extensive space with lots of exploring. Relies quite heavily on the host to guide you through but I enjoyed that as a different style of room.
Played: 26 May 2025 Team size: 2
Really nice mixture of puzzles, a very beginner friendly room with lots to see and do. Just suffered from the host being a bit hasty to give us clues, sometimes for puzzles we'd already done.
Played: 3 May 2025 Team size: 3
Plenty to do for enthusiasts, we used the full hour trying to max out all the collectables, really solid room with some puzzles I've not seen elsewhere
Played: 18 Apr 2025 Team size: 3
Really impressed that this is this companies' first room, felt like a complete world, with a tonne of puzzles and a strong host, we had great flow in this room.
Played: 17 Apr 2025 Team size: 3
Great set and theatrics, a fun story, lots of drama, exciting tension without being horror! Only critique was a few puzzles needed a bit of a logic leap prompt from the host.
Played: 8 Feb 2025 Team size: 3
Cool concept of a place - bar with lots of mini escape rooms. This one was decent, our friends seemed to enjoy the enchanted tree a bit more possibly? :)
Played: 6 Mar 2025 Team size: 3

The genre for this is best described more as a 'challenge arcade' than an escape room or at least from the minigames we played in it! I think if you go in expecting the immersion and puzzles of an escape room you'd be disappointed, but if you go in knowing these are more crystal maze-esque phyiscal / skill / mental challenges  you'll have a good time. 

We had a fun hour of 5 minute challenges, some were a bit worn already for a quite new experience but I understand they get much more use than a usual escape room, we probably would have preferred a 90 minute slot, or maybe the ability to pause between playing some rooms rather than rushing between to get the most of our hour. Great concept, best for small groups. 

US examples are Boda Borg or Level 99 but the closest other equivalent in the UK is probably Prison Island in Maidstone. 

Brilliant expansive set and some nice physical interactions that unfortunately were let down by needing multiple attempts to make puzzles work and too much prompting over the radio that took us out of the immersion / flow.

A very crystal maze experience - more rooms and climbing & crawling than a typical escape room and lots of quite visceral physical puzzles, was a good fun time even with the chaos of 7 of us, would still recommend 4 people for the best experience. Always great hosting at this venue!

Brilliant immersion, great sets & actors. Very attentive game masters who tweak the experience to the players, a must play if you can handle some horror!

Great atmosphere and story, though fairly basic puzzles
Played: 18 Nov 2024 Team size: 4
Definitely a wow moment and some great theming, let down a little by a few unsatisfying puzzles
Played: 18 Nov 2024 Team size: 4
Probably the most traditional room currently from this company, solid set and puzzles
Played: 9 Oct 2024
Solid theme, smaller room suited to small groups. Some good story line elements but quite basic puzzles, maybe too much reliance on mental maths!
Played: 24 Sep 2024 Team size: 2
Great sets and vibe, a very immersive and wide ranging experience!
Played: 15 Sep 2024 Team size: 2
Incredible technology, one of the best rooms for puzzles matching story, it's a must play.

Lovely host, fun theme! Great soundtrack, we had a fun time!

A lovely host, an incredible set and some super unique puzzles, sad it's going away soon!

Lots to see in a great set with solid puzzles.

A fun stranger things room with some good recreations of bits from the show, but fairly standard puzzles.
Played: 28 Jun 2024 Team size: 4
Strong first showing from this company with some cool bits of tech and some exciting moments, just needed a clearer plot bigger finale to bring it all together!

Impressive tech and set, some theatrical and some wow moments! Only criticism: a little too many of the same style of puzzle.
Played: 24 Aug 2022
Not an escape room, more of an immersive walkthrough (we spent around 2 hours exploring) but with some seriously impressive theming! Returning soon to see the expansion. 
Played: 26 Feb 2024
Impressive set with a lot of variety and fun mechanics thrown in, a real blast with a great host. Our only nit-pick was we think for the reputation it has we expected some slightly more layered puzzles.
Played: 25 Feb 2024 Team size: 4
High tech and visceral, loved the range of puzzles and the scifi set, felt like a step up in quality from their first room - potentially refurbished since they've moved locations?
Played: 25 Feb 2024 Team size: 4
Lots to do in this room, it's definitely a high level of difficulty, but I think the set wasn't at the standards of their other (brilliant) rooms
Played: 24 Feb 2024 Team size: 4
A nice set and satisfying puzzles, Escape plan always do nice chunky wooden puzzles with a few surprises, will definitely be back for their new room!
