The JailNomad EscapeEscape roomIRLDuuuuude what a cool room! More immersive than any other prison experience I've been in. Loads of references and great touches of humour, and very 70s in feel overall (which is my thing, so I spent so much time just enjoying the set design). Without giving away spoilers, there are some great moments of roleplay, which adds soooo much to the game. But don't let that scare you if you'd prefer to be left alone: it all makes sense in narrative and puzzle path. In terms of puzzles, there is a LOT to do. Lots of physical puzzles, and some seriously inventive and creative use of word puzzles! It has a wonderful mix of so many styles. As a team of two it pushed us to our limits and we escaped with a real sense of accomplishment. Fantastic. A total gem, not just as a room but also as a place in general. The staff are so passionate and friendly. They deserve every bit of success coming their way (and MORE!)
Haunted CircusNomad EscapeEscape roomIRLEverything you want in a circus room and more! Atmosphere and tension are through the roof; it's like being in a haunt environment, except you get to take your time instead of having to rush and shuffle through. The range of puzzles here is quite impressive, as are the size of some of the installations. Mostly multi-linear and very much NOT your typical "find numbers then arrange them". The lighting and sound are fantastic and add so much to the immersion too. It's really a phenomenal game that has so much love and passion from the team haunting its halls, and it's spooky AS HELL. Spooky in that Are You Afraid of the Dark and Goosebumps kinda way, but also mildly terrifying with the live actor who you can feel watching you at every turn! Perfect for a smaller team too: we were 42mins as a team of 2 and it felt right in the sweet spot. If you're reading this wondering whether to go or not, just drop everything and book right now! Nomad are building something special.
