Tulleys Escape Room

Escape room
IRL

Completed 70% on first attempt with 4x adults and 2x kids, then escaped in 45 mines on second attempt. Very well themed with many rooms. A mix of strait forward puzzles, and some that require a little thought/searching. Main challenge is that this is a huge set, so plenty to do, although each room is relatively small and more than 4 adults would be a squeeze, with not everyone having something to do at any one time. A nice mix of puzzle styles and the magic concept is well executed. Fantastic room that is worth travelling for.

Failed at first attempt with 2 adults, so returned with kids and grandparents as reinforcements and escaped! Well thought out game, with lots to do. Largely linear puzzles of up to moderate difficulty, but plenty for younger players to engage with so fun as a family. Challenge is primarily volume related. Theming is not the most detailed, but more than made up for with thoughtful elements that add to the gameplay. A nice range of puzzles so although lots to do, it is not repetitive. Great fun, worth travelling for to enjoy.

Well themed room with some interesting/novel puzzles. Pretty straightforward for experienced players but not so easy as to be boring. A great room for less experienced players. Some quirky elements and puzzles that require good teamwork which is always good to see.

This is a top notch room. Incredible theming and very immersive. Nice balance of search, physical and mental puzzles so there is something for everyone. Non linear, but not overly complicated so still approachable for all expertise levels. Several unique elements that really add to the experience. Expert teams may find quite straightforward, but that is not too easy it is easy. Very good fun.

An excellent room. Theming is immersive and set design is beautiful. Large set with multiple rooms. Lots of fun elements. Puzzles all relatively straightforward, such that 11yr and 9yr old could actively engage, but still plenty interesting for adults. Enough non linear elements to keep everyone busy, but without losing track. Nice mix of physical and cerebral puzzles. Excellent fun.

An enjoyable room with a fun start. Some interesting elements, but generally a high proportion of searching/processing rather than high volume or difficulty of puzzles. Perhaps a little underwhelming for experienced puzzlers

Great fun, medium difficulty. Quite linear. Minimal use of padlocks and several tech elements that work really well.

Slightly harder than operation blacksheep, a good option for moderately experienced gamers who enjoy a bit of head scrstching. Well themed with some novel mechanical elements. Nice mix of puzzles, not all are easy to find

Excellent multi room game with a nice range of puzzles in type and difficulty. Host quickly fixed a problem with the mechanics of one game.

The room gives all the icky feelings you would expect from this theme. While there are some interesting visual and puzzle elements, they are somewhat overshadowed by the volume of drawers locked with a padlock. This would be less of an issue if the gameplay was less linear. As it is, one comes across information that is evidently a solution, and just pops it into the next padlock on too many occasions to reach the highest rating. The puzzles that are non-padlock related are relatively simple. Much of the difficulty comes simply from being unable to see due to themed lighting, but using phone torch is apparently allowed, so somewhat defeating the purpose. Storyline sort of works, but some of the solutions seemed a bit arbitary. Overall a fun room that I world recommend doing with a small group, not with kids

Every escape room. Every haunt. Ever.
