The DomeMama BazookaEscape roomIRLWhilst in the NL we had to check out the #2 rated game of the world but we were warned that whilst it was doable with a group of 2, we would need to be fast and keep moving. We escaped, however, I can see why this room is more suited to 4+ people as there’s so much to do. The set is awesome, a lot of time and expertise (and love) has gone into making the whole experience something memorable but my goodness, with a team of 2, there was just so much moving around needed and so much to get through. It was very enjoyable but hard, still we are pleased to have experience the room as it really was something else!
Room 1: M.A.R.V.O. InductionMarvo Mysteries Escape Room BournemouthEscape roomIRLThere was no doubt this room was going to be something special after all the great reviews, from the minute you arrive, you’re already immersed in part of the set which is just incredible. With just one game here (with another in the making!), the detail and time that has gone into making this is off the scale. We loved every minute and will definitely be back to continue the storyline when the new room is complete.
Zombieland 2 - The Perks of KarenCompendium Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLGot to love a Karen, and oh my does she let you know when you have been a plonker :) A nice flowing room with lots packed in and some nice moments of gratification along the way. The room comes with a warning if you are easily offended but on a scale I’d say it was pretty mild and just really funny!
BedlamCompendium Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLThis room has a lot more packed into a small space and requires at least one member of the team to crawl through a tight space on multiple occasions. Requires a keen eye at times to spot the clues but a really enjoyable room. We did this as a group of two but you would probably struggle in terms of space for more than four people at the same time. Not scary, no jump scares, and no live actor.
UI-55Compendium Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLWow, this room is probably one of the biggest rooms I’ve ever seen, with rooms that lead into more rooms. Don’t let that put you off if you only have a small team though as the room is great for any number of team. Mostly designed to work individually on puzzles as you explore the rooms with the idea to collect as much loot as you can and escape in time. The set is awesome, the host was fab and a real fun must do room! This room literally has something for everyone!
Labyrinth - Lord Barrington's FollyEscape BrumEscape roomIRLReally enjoyed the mini puzzle aspect of this room with the added task of collecting gold and silver disks so you really want to use your time wisely. It also encourages you to use the full hour. There is just so much to this room that it works well for both a small group as well as a larger group maxing out on searching for disks. A lot of fun!
The Mystic's CabinEscape BrumEscape roomIRLThere is a lot to do in this game, especially if there are only two of you but we got through it. The set is great and feels like it could be real too. A really fun room :)
Arabian NightsEnigma Live Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLA nice flow to the room, nothing too complicated but nice well thought out puzzles, lots of mag locks but that’s less fiddling around with locks so a nice change. Restrictive space in a couple of areas but good fun themed room.
A Curious CaseEskape WhitbyEscape roomIRLA non linear room with a fun Alice in Wonderland feel to it. Lots of puzzles which is a good challenge for a group of two. Definitely worth a visit!
ImpactEnigma Live Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLNot a traditional lock in sight! Lots of mechanical / computer puzzles so quite different from a standard escape room. Masses of stuff to complete with two people so I would only tackle as a team of two if semi experienced. Really good fun though but felt the pressure at the end as our timer was rapidly running out. Crawling required by at least one player.
