A bit creepy and atmospheric in the shadow of the old church and graveyard. The game flowed beautifully and the puzzles just made sense to us. Completely linear with minimal padlocks and lots of rewarding puzzle solves. We love to visit The Escape Key and are looking forward to seeing what comes next.

What an amazing game! Played as a two and it flowed really well for us. Plenty of interesting and varied puzzles to solve and everything made sense. Christian was a great host, so enthusiastic and was accommodating with removing one of the jump scares as we were a bit nervous. Such a good escape room company and wait for the new game.

Really good game. Although I have played other escape rooms just as good for much cheaper.

Fantastic room. Really nicely tied in with the history of Newcastle, including the view from the building, and independently created and ran. Thanks for a fun experience!

Such a great room, probably my favourite out of the 4. There was so nifty surprises in there that made us jump but nothing too scary. Loved the ending to the game, it was very involved and fun.

Not in a bad way, it was very enjoyable. A lot of things I’d seen before with being experienced. Definitely a must do still!!
