Clockwork Escapes Telford's "The Legend of Foole's Gold" is a treasure trove of fun! This escape room is a thrilling combination of puzzle-solving and exploration. While it follows a clear path, there's a great balance of padlock puzzles and hands-on tasks, making it engaging for everyone. We loved feeling like real-life miners thanks to the incredible set design and attention to detail – the dust alone was a convincing touch! The puzzles were satisfying, but one final challenge was quite time-consuming for a team of two, and it would have been even more exciting to earn extra gold by solving optional puzzles instead of just finding it lying around. Despite this, we had a blast! A must-play for adventure seekers and puzzle enthusiasts.

Clockwork Escapes Telford's "The Creep" delivers a truly immersive and atmospheric escape room experience. The puzzles are a well-balanced mix of physical and mental challenges, offering both satisfaction and frustration in equal measure. The gamemaster's dedication to character, maintained both inside and outside the game, adds an extra layer of immersion. While the overall experience didn't fully resonate with me, "The Creep" is undoubtedly worth exploring for those seeking a challenging and distinct adventure.

Eye of the Sun God boasts a thrilling start and captivating set design in its opening act, however the experience unravels in the second half. Whilst a good half of the puzzles delivered an enjoyable challenge, the rest stumbled due to illogical design or unclear instructions. One or two puzzles, in particular, felt like missed opportunities with the potential for better execution. The initial excitement fizzles out to a somewhat underwhelming conclusion, leaving you wanting more.

Crystal Maze Manchester throws 16 challenges at up to 8 players, translating to at least 2 challenges per person when everyone joins in. The puzzles, inspired by the iconic TV show, are a blast for the 2-3 minutes it takes to tackle each one. They range from brain-teasing puzzles to physical feats involving wacky contraptions, in immersive settings with a great host who leads your game for the whole journey. However, the overall experience feels rushed, especially considering the £40+ average price tag per player. Considering this, you don't get a lot of playtime for your money. While a traditional escape room might offer better value, the Crystal Maze is still undeniably a unique experience worth trying at least once, especially if you're curious and have a solid team to conquer it with.

Zombieland at Compendium Bury is a fun straightforward linear escape game. The room is well-themed with plenty of fun details and has a good balance of challenge and fun. The puzzles are challenging enough to keep you engaged, but not so difficult that you'll ever get frustrated. It's a great time for fans of zombie movies and zombie themed escape rooms alike.

Dilema is not going to win any awards for its set design. The room is a bit bare-bones, with a few props and some basic furniture. However, what the room lacks in decoration, it makes up for in puzzles. The non-linear room offers a wide range of locks and puzzles to solve, from quickfire challenges to pondering brainteasers. We escaped the room having completed a good majority of the puzzles and with over £40,000 of cash, which is a good score for a team of two There is something for everyone in this room, whether you are a seasoned escape room veteran or a complete beginner.

Clue HQ's outdated and lackluster Teleport escape room is a disappointment compared to their other innovative and engaging escape rooms. The sets are bare-bones with little challenging or thought-provoking puzzles to solve, making it a boring and unsatisfying experience.

This escape room is distinctively themed in black and white, with a fair amount of fun, creative, and satisfying puzzles to solve and decrypt. However, the room has been around since the company opened, so it does feel a bit outworn.

I was expecting an escape room-style adventure, but what I got was something more akin to a large-scale interactive exhibit.The experience lasted about 70 minutes, with about 25-30 minutes of that dedicated to escape room-style puzzles. The setting was impressive and immersive, with plenty of details that fans of the film would appreciate. The live actors were also decent enough, although there were more security staff than actors on hand. The three escape room-style puzzles were a mixed bag. One was illogical and didn't really have a satisfying ending, one was a typical maze puzzle but decent, and the third was just following scripted prompts. Working together with complete strangers can be hit or miss. It didn't work well in the first room, but we all worked better together in the other two. There were about 6 or 8 of us in our group. Overall, I would recommend this experience to fans of the film series who are looking for something immersive. However, if you're an escape room enthusiast, you'll probably be disappointed.

The graveyard and laboratory of Dr. Frankenstein are the setting for this escape room. The two environments provide a backdrop for the puzzles, which are enjoyable and testing enough. While there is nothing groundbreaking about the puzzles, there was one that we hadn't seen done anywhere else, which brought us some delight. The puzzles in the graveyard are more focused on finding and using clues, while the puzzles in the laboratory are more technical and require you to use your problem-solving skills. The host was good, only giving pointers in the 2 or 3 hints we received. A decently fun experience that is perfect for newcomers but still enjoyable for enthusiasts.
