AtlantisThe Escapement BroadstairsEscape roomIRLTruely impressive game. The set design and effort put into this game is phenomenal. Truely a class of it's own. The puzzles themselves were fairly standard and there were some fun active bits. I would say it's a shame it's gone and I would suggest anyone to go do it but the actual gameplay didnt stand out.
Pirates of PolarisThe EscapementEscape roomIRLThis was mine and my partner's first escape room. We went with two seasoned escapers. The host was very welcoming and was superb in character. The room was very well made and maintained. All the puzzles worked and the puzzles progressed well. There were a few we got stuck on but eventually made it out in good time with no hints. Set design and puzzles were fun.
The Disappearing Duchess - Chapter 1Exciting Escapes - BasingstokeEscape roomIRLGreat game. Unique intuitive puzzles. Game mechanics I have experienced before. Good combination of logical thinking and physical puzzles. Love that this is one of a series. We completed the first 2 parts in one day.
The Disappearing Duchess - Chapter 2Exciting Escapes - BasingstokeEscape roomIRLReally fun. Second game in the series. Set design was stop notch and game play was enjoyable.
Pirates Of The Stormy SeasEscape Kent - CanterburyEscape roomIRLAbsolutely loved this room. Probably still my favourite. Fun and intuitive puzzles, everything worked as it should and the game kept expanding in such imaginative ways. We were a group of 5 rookies but managed to get out just in time. The puzzles were challenging but logical and doable.
Silence Is a VirtueExciting EscapesEscape roomIRLPremise for the game was interesting and added game "rule" was fun. Some puzzles were difficult to work out and we solved some by accident. A few puzzles didn't work and I managed to skip one entirely and solve the one after it that need the first answer. Set was good and the puzzles at this venue always have cool room mechanics.
The Bank JobThe Bank Job BroadstairsEscape roomIRLI really didn't enjoy this game. Some of the puzzles didn't work properly and we're not intuitive at all. The remainder of the puzzles I didn't really find that enjoyable and found it difficult to follow what was going on. The two other people I played with said it was okay but also found the initial puzzle that didn't work well frustrating and cost us unnecessary time. Other people I know that have played had the same issue.
The Voices We HearExciting EscapesEscape roomIRLAbsolutely loved this game. First scary one we did! Environment was spot on, everything worked great. Game mechanics introduced make it exciting and challenging.
DraculaEscape Hunt - CanterburyEscape roomIRLI really enjoyed this games. The host was very welcome and there is a bar on site. We completed this as a team of two. Some of the puzzles were really intuitive and we're unlike ones I have completed before. We did get stuck on a couple bits but we were essentially trying to complete puzzles ahead of ourselves. We did miss the completion of 2 puzzles, which we lost time on, but this was more to observation I think. Room overall was fun and unique.
Change The RecordExciting EscapesEscape roomIRLLoved this game. Puzzles were challenging but really fun to complete. Game flowed well and it's possible to split up and complete multiple at once. All the team thoroughly loved this one.
