Outatime - Through the DecadesEscapable - Thornes Lane WharfEscape roomIRLAnother hit from Escapable. Brilliantly themed room with some lovely touches and surprises. Felt really special and better than Universal’s own escape experience!
Grimm Up NorthEnigma Live Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThis room is a 75 minute experience. Your main goal is to retrieve 3 pieces from 3 key fairytales. After that you can use the remaining time as a collectathon type game to try and retrieve as many happy evers as possible. We completed the main quest objective in 64:12. The room is incredibly well themed and very cool! Lots to sink your teeth into but some puzzles that can be time consuming as a team of 2 – that's down on how we prefer to play too though. It was a bit tricky at times to know what was the main quest and what we wouldn't be able to do until after on for the collectathon section. Overall we had a fantastic time and the room and host was brilliant. It's so great to see Enigma constantly knocking it out of the park with solid rooms across their different locations.
The Great LoudiniEscapable - Thornes Lane WharfEscape roomIRLWow! Hands down the best escape room we have ever played. Which at 75+ rooms done - we don’t say lightly. I didn’t know what to expect going in - and as we like to play as a 2 I was a little apprehensive about the magic element being so up close without the ability to hide in a larger group. If you’re reading this review thinking the same please don’t hesitate to book this escape room experience. It’s absolutely mega. I’m almost a bit upset that we’ll never do a room like this again! Thank you so much! 🙌🪄
Daylight RobberyBreak Escape Nottingham - Upper Parliament Street [prev. Cryptology]Escape roomIRLWe played as a 2, they recommend groups of 4 but if people are familiar with escape rooms you can play as a 2. There is a LOT to get through though and you likely won’t do it all. There were some bits we found very difficult. The aim is to steal as much from the bank as possible and then in the final 10 mins steal the final diamond. So you’ll get the full 60 minutes in the room to try and get the highest score possible
The Goblins of ToadsmeadBeverley BreakoutEscape roomIRLHeaded over to this one after seeing the glowing reviews which it definitely deserves! Fran the owner and host was so friendly and the theming was really good and there were some cool tech and puzzles in there we haven’t seen elsewhere. I love an independently run room ❤️
Escape From OzEnigma Live Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLWould definitely recommend this to anyone. This was one of the best rooms we have played, and we’ve played a lot. The theming was fantastic and really well done throughout with some really nice set pieces and tech in there that we hadn’t seen before. Host/owner was very friendly and we will definitely be back to play the second room once it’s opened up
Escape the Chocolate FactoryEnigma Live Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLWe have played a few Enigma rooms now and I love their theming, the rooms always look so good and there’s always a good variety of puzzles! We all really enjoyed this one.
PlaygroundThe Escape Game - OrlandoEscape roomIRLAmazing theme - set was brilliant and being able to take photos throughout was a great touch. We were lucky that no one else booked into our slot as these are not private experiences.
Marv The Monkey Presents: The Golden BananaEscapable - The Ridings Shopping CentreEscape roomIRLCouldn’t wait to check out Escapable’s new room. We are a big fan of their rooms so booked in as soon as we could and it didn’t disappoint.It is really immersive and engaging, it really feels like you are at a fun fair. It’s charming, warm and has soul - isn’t your traditional key and lock. The puzzles are mostly intuitive - the moments we got stuck were user error!Room is well set with the theming, props and noise. If you don’t live near Wakefield then you should absolutely book a hotel and travel for Marv, Loudini and Outatime. 3 of the best rooms in the UK. There is another element in the room for collecting cash. You may want to not trigger the ending until you are sure you’ve found as much as you can :)
