Pudding LaneCronologicEscape roomIRLAh what a brilliant way to make a historical event come alive, brilliantly themed, some clever puzzles and tasks and a decision to make at the end leading to different outcomes. Loved our GM Lily and really hope that TimeTrap is reborn with their time travel antics elsewhere.

Box One By Neil Patrick HarrisTheory11 OnlineEscape roomTabletopJust insanely good. Get a copy and play it alone or with friends! So so clever and cunning :)
The Guardian Of The GalleryRushden Escape Rooms [prev. Want to Escape]Escape roomIRLWow. What an original idea well executed. The first puzzle is simple enough to get you started, and from then on it really does feel like you are taking a journey through time and place. Not at all like you are just going to new parts of the room by opening a door or a panel, but actually using a specific process, and solving puzzles to make it happen. I was more fond of one main area than the other, but the variety and amount of puzzles in each were still varied and numerous. Amazing decoration, fun voiceover, agree some music in the background would be nice - just something gentle and instrumental, or something applicable to each area as you get there :) I know the hosts are always tweaking and listening to feedback so good on them!
Questionable Ethics (Mission)Hounds - Immersive ExperiencesEscape roomOther A really detailed briefing from our "kidnapper" and a very clever use of space. Brilliant puzzles all well in keeping, great styling and overall an amazing venue!
