An awesome, well executed space room! Creative puzzles with good flow and clear direction. We had a blast! Super fun ending too!! 

An epic room of huge proportions- lots of very creative puzzles. Loved the very clever central room interface. For smaller teams I would definitely recommend the 90mins- theres just so much to do!!

An incredible thematic experience! A creative, story driven room with interesting puzzles and great flow. 

Hosting was top notch, shout out to Aaliya! 

This was another well thought out room by escape time. We were really impressed with the quality of the puzzles, hosting and the signposting. We took quite a bit of time locating a reveal after a successful solve- we were thinking they should perhaps add a bell/directional sound cue  to indicate the location of the reward. 

The set is perhaps slightly more tired/less polished than some rooms we’ve done- but still thoroughly enjoyable.  We are proud to say that we placed 4th on the leaderboard for this room, but had been demoted to 6th on the other room from last year! 

This was a memorable room as it was our first time playing as a 4, and  the other couples first room ever. 

It was a fun room with a great mixture of physical and thinking puzzles. The set was perhaps a little dated but the room still flowed and played well. A minor snag occurred when bag placement prevented a door from opening- we were told we could place them anywhere. 

Still, it was a very fun room with good, creative puzzles and a nice room for newbies first. 

A decent pirate themed room. Linear puzzles that were well suited to 2 people

This was a good high tech room that we gelled well with. High quality effects with lots to do. 

This was a great room, and my favourite of the 3 (my partner preferred citadel). 

The overall goal was original and a great concept. The puzzles were varied and plenty, with a great mixture of thinking and physical puzzles. We both enjoyed it immensely, would highly recommend

A very good room with varied puzzles and a consistent story. A new success goal for us, and some fun unexpected twists thrown in throughout. 

A wicked high tech room with lots of creative puzzles and a good logical flow. 

A well executed experience authentic to the TV show. Really polished and good fun!

An absolutely incredible experience! Not like a traditional escape room, but that is by no means a negative thing. The Sultans Secret is a transformative and immersive experience. The live actors are absolutely brilliant and help you feel like you’re really in a bazaar! The passion of the designers and workers at xscape Telford is clear to all who partake on this room. Amazing!

Another exceptional room in Hatton. 

An exceptionally immersive, creative room. We were in awe of the set quality and design. An excellent selection of physical and mental puzzles- it was great fun!  Katie was great- you couldn’t tell it was first time GMing! 

Again, our global opinion of Hatton is that they are exceptional rooms but there is a lot to do for 2 players. This isn’t intended as negative feedback, just be prepared to solve lots and work hard!

Another great room at Hatton! 

Super immersive with creative and varied puzzles, good flow and theming. Excellent GMing from Vee, clearly very experienced. 

Only comment is it is a LOT of work for 2 people, we had to move quite fast to get finished on time, on this note there was one physical puzzle that was a little challenging just for 2 people, but Vee offered to assist us should we need it. 

Cool concept! I don’t want to spoil anything, but a very fun, story driven experience. Creative, fun puzzles in a dynamic setting. The execution could have possibly been a little higher, but still a good time 

A good linear room with a solid storyline. Some creative puzzles, good fun. 

A decent creepy/horror room. Some interesting puzzles but again, a little bit of trial and error for code -> lock. I think some improved sign posting would make for a more seamless experience. 

Still very enjoyable though 

A decent room with some interesting tech and puzzles. We found it a little frustrating at times, when there was no indication which padlock each code was for. This lead to us having to try multiple codes on multiple padlocks until one opened. 

We finished the first objective in 32 minutes- it was the challenging second objective that ate up the remainder of our time but i liked the optional extra challenge. 

What a fantastic room. My partner and I had such a blast working our way through the creative and high tech puzzles. There was a great mixture of physical and thinking puzzles, it’s honestly without fault. 

Afterwards James walked us through his thoughts and design intentions which we thoroughly enjoyed. This is a serious contender for our favourite room ever. 

A really really fun jungle themed room with lots of physical puzzles- that we really enjoyed. With hindsight, we wish we’d had a go at the harder difficulty- but it massively enjoyable nonetheless. The hosting at prodigy is among the best we’ve seen, Darcy was exceptional. 

A very well executed horror room, more creepy than scary but created a nice atmosphere. Clever puzzles as per usual for prodigy, very very fun! Shout out to Ella who was a fantastic GM!

Fun take on an Alice in wonderland room, fun creative puzzles. We enjoyed it a lot!

An incredible room with lots of amazing features and beautiful set design. Would HIGHLY recommend!! Loved every second of it!!

An awesome transportive experience. We genuinely felt like we were down in a mine! The hosting was excellent, immersive from the get go. My partner absolutely loved it and we were very happy with our score! True top 5 material, could not recommend enough!!!

An exceptional room with many features. Lots of varied puzzles of all types creative directions, seamless technology. Really cannot fault it. Hosting was absolutely excellent as well.

A fun heist concept with layers and a variety of puzzle types. We completed the primary objective in 48 mins, but the secondary objective took us right up to the finish line! A tricky room with great hosting :)

A good room with a variety of puzzles and solves. Our poor searching lead to a slower than desired time but it was still great!

An extremely fun high tech room, the concept was creative and brilliantly executed. An immersive and awesome experience, would highly recommend for all!

An awesomely themed room with loads to do! Quite padlock heavy which may be to some peoples tastes or not. We needed more clues than normal for a successful escape!

A fun christmas room that was quite labour intensive- lots of puzzles to keep up busy!

A brilliantly themed set of rooms with some clever puzzles. Excellent flow and you can tell it’s a real labour of love. 1 star off due to a puzzle being a little bit of a stretch of logic (but that may just be us!). Would highly recommend this room!

Quite a disappointing room/experience. There were many broken puzzles/elements in the room, which in all looked quite tired and in need of some TLC. Puzzles were fine, but more explanation of objectives would’ve been nice. Not a fan, couldn’t engage well with the theming. Quite sure this room used to have a nautical theming and has just been reskinned  

A decent room. Started strong, but puzzles became a little illogical towards the end. Just OK

A slow start from us, but a very enjoyable run. Clever puzzles and theming, we had good fun!

Brilliant room, great atmosphere. Lovely flow with creative puzzles. A very enjoyable escape!

A fun magical room with cool components and clever details. Lots of puzzles kept us busy but it was clear the host wasn’t paying attention at the end, as they were unable to provide us a time. We are confident it was sub-30 due to our watches, but unsure precisely. 

A decent room with clever components. Some poor hosting lead to a delay on hints, and quite clunky communication. Ok

This was a fantastic, high tech experience! The room is superbly constructed and very well thought out. Lots of incredible very high tech features that worked seamlessly and without fault. Dan was a superb host and afterwards walked us through our stats for the run. We will be back for the other 2 rooms 100%!!!!!

The immersion was excellent, puzzles were creative and enjoyable. The flow was intuitive and natural. Everything you want from an escape room! Shoutout to Thomas, he was the perfect host!!

This was the worst escape room we have tried yet. From the start, the company (tenpin) had rotaed the employee on too late as  they hadnt anticipated anyone booking. They very kindly provided 2 complimentary games of bowling, and as we were in no rush this was well received- so no real complaints there. 

This poor organisation was a sign of things to come, however. When we arrived at the room, they couldnt find our booking. They made a new booking for us and took us to the room- which is where the problems really began. 

Initially, the room wasnt reset- so we had to exit while this happened. No preamble or context was given, we got sent into the room and just told to begin. There was no music, no immersion whatsoever. The gamemaster was giving constant clues and hints despite us requesting none. Several of the puzzles had missing components, making them impossible to complete. Many of the puzzles didn't work as intended, and the host made us read out our solution before manually activating the reveals. Speaking of reveals, several reveals to puzzles occurred silently in rooms we had been through- which was frustrating. 

When we escaped, they misrecorded our team as a team of 4, so on the official website our time is displayed under the wrong name and teamsize.

A very frustrating experience which would definitely dissuade any new escapees. 

A fun room with a great story and flow. Enjoyable solves, hosting left a little to be desired

First time doing a 100% attempt escape room. Didnt particularly enjoy the concept, but thats no fault of the room. Some puzzles seemed illogical, but we still managed to get away with $675k with minimum help

Very fun and original room. Quite labour intensive for 2 people but we still had loads of fun! Lots and lots and different puzzles, will be back for the others!!

Fantastic flow, logical and creative puzzles. Good sound effects and lighting, great fun all round!

Only criticism is the clue matrix, which revealed the names and locations of the puzzles. While we avoided it, I think perhaps it should be covered behind a hatch/sheet

One of the puzzles in the last room is such a stretch from logic, i don’t see how it would be possible without a clue 

Some infighting lead to a subpar result!
