    For a while now we have found that we enjoy rooms that are puzzle focused with a fun storyline and this room is an example of that at its best. Part of what makes this an amazing experience is it’s simplicity, there’s no heavy tech and most things use some kind of padlock, we were truly in our element! The signposting is excellent, we didn’t for a minute have to wonder what went where, this allowed us to focus on the puzzles which were all logical, fun and had no “logic leaps” to get to the answer. And that is without even mentioning the set/theming, it’s amazing! Chapelgate has been done to a really high standard, we were amazed when the door opened and we stepped through onto the street! The shop interiors (depending on which game you do here you can visit different shops I believe!) were all incredible and lined with so many puzzles! And of course the hosting was exceptional, all this made this a truly amazing escape room and possibly our new favourite! We can’t wait to come back when the game next rotates round!

    A very well themed room, found the difficulty to be off the charts and the puzzles didn’t really flow. Additionally one puzzle in particular was definitely made with at least 4 players in mind as for 2 players it was a big time waster. We got 2 hints in the full hour despite asking for more and asking for a hint to be repeated we were ignored both times. Our host just felt “off” with us from the start, and felt like they were not paying attention to us in the room! I’d like to finish off by saying that we did two rooms across two days here and our experience in the other room immaterium was much better.

    Our first dip into proper horror rooms and this was just the perfect level of scares for us! With a few spooky effects but nothing to freak out about too much, there’s an awesome creepy atmosphere throughout which makes this game very exciting to play! It’s really immersive throughout a the entire experience and has some really cool puzzles! Although I will mention one puzzle near the end involving a video is quite difficult but our GM was excellent and provided just enough help to solve it on our own! Another excellent Escapologic room!

    Where to even start! An amazing experience from start to finish and definitely a contender for the best room in Nottingham! Puzzle wise everything is nicely signposted, the enjoyment and difficulty in this room actually comes from solving the puzzles. As a team of two we did find there was a lot to do, but in this kind of room and with our host being brilliant we managed to complete it all with a few minutes to go! Set wise the room looks incredible, truly setting the bar high! We can’t wait to come back for the arcade room when it opens!

    This room is amazing! Fully immersive, to the point of the floor literally shaking replicating the thrum of the ships engine. The puzzles were clever and all kept in with the theme so none broke immersion. Our host was incredible, controlling the servitor who gave helpful hints when needed! Truly an epic experience! While this didn’t spoil the experience I do feel it’s worth noting that there is no timer so it is hard to get a sense of how well you are progressing/how much time is left. I believe we did get a 10 minute message from our host though!

    An amazing experience, the layout of this room still has us scratching our heads!! There are crawl spaces, a slide and more all packed into this room! Truly an excellent experience! One minor issue however was a puzzle that we figured out very quickly but found it difficult to make out numbers that appeared blurry.

    Amazing room, our first room using handcuffs too and the puzzles around us made full use of the fact we were restrained! Fully immersive too, we really loved this room and it is still one of our favourites even now! Really good test of communication too!

    An amazing room, starts off in a really unique and extremely fun way! Once you get into the main area there is plenty to do, it’s a very non-linear game that has some structure still. Puzzles were clever and didn’t have any leaps in logic etc, very enjoyable! Hosting was excellent and Owly the owl delivered clues when we needed them! Another amazing break escape room!

    Really enjoyable room, lots of fun and is fully themed from the ceiling to the floor throughout! Most puzzles logical however we did need a few nudges in the right direction! Some very cool and different puzzles! We really enjoyed the room and had so much fun! Sadly we encountered a number of tech/stray item problems: one of the puzzles in the final room had already “completed itself” so the pieces were already on the floor below which meant wasting time trying to complete the puzzle for nothing to happen. Magnetic releases in the final room were very temperamental also, having tried to open them the host gave us a hint to try again and we found varying degrees of success. Finally the biggest issue was the appearance of extra pieces during the final puzzle, some maths is involved to calculate the final combination which was way off due to the presence of the extra pieces! Overall we still had fun and will be back to try the other rooms, however it seemed like a lot of issues happened throughout our game!

    A good room that was better themed than we expected, plus an incredible soundtrack! The game had a real good flow to it up until a certain point! We encountered an issue with one of the locks, we tried the correct combination multiple times each with it not opening leading to us thinking we were wrong. Thankfully hosts were excellent and guided us back to the lock and now knowing for certain it was correct we played about with it and it opened! Will definitely be back for the last two rooms we have left here!
