Case Closed

Fantastic room with a fantastic host.

This was by far one of the best escape rooms I have completed. Words cannot really describe how great an experience it was. We took the time to enjoy the board game cafe prior to the escape room, the hot chocolate and latte were on point. The escape room itself was the complete experience, that was only enhanced by the enthusiasm and passion of the games master. This was the highlight of my time in Edinburgh and cannot recommend it enough. When I come back to Edinburgh, Case Closed will be on the top of my list.

I adore Case Closed's Max Sinclair room. It's not the most high tech room. It was clearly put together on a pretty shoe string budget, but there so much loveliness and creativity in each part of this room! The focus is less on escaping and more piecing together the case (if you like The Return of the Obra Dinn, this game is for you). One of my favorites in the UK!

We had an absolute blast in this room! More of a mystery-solving experience than a typical escape room (we were encouraged to take our time to enjoy the experience rather than rush through it). Ronan was a fantastic host—energetic and enthusiastic. We are excited to try their other room on our next trip to Edinburgh. Highly recommend!

Case Closed deserves a perfect score in our books—a definite must-try if you find yourself in Edinburgh. Our only minor quibble is the occasional simplicity of some puzzles. Should they ever craft a room tailored for escape room enthusiasts, it would undoubtedly earn a coveted spot on our bucket lists.

Played this at the original venue, which was quite small. But it packed in plenty and is something very different in the way it is presented. I commented on it during the room which Ronan (GM and owner) picked up on. Definitely a must play.

This has easily jumped to my number one room. The style of the game play makes you forget that you’re in an escape room with a time limit. You just become immersed. I adored the use of lighting in the room and so many of the puzzles were logical not out of place. The ending: I won’t spoil it too much, but finally an end to the game that delivers on the synopsis. My only not fault is that there isn’t more games by this Case Closed!

Game was wonderful and our host Ronan was the best. This detective noir style room was perfect for our group of 4. There was always something for everyone to do and the room included different types of puzzles than you would not normally find in a traditional type of escape room. Very fun, definitely different - and one of the most memorable rooms we’ve ever done. Thank you!

What a wonderful escape room!! You can tell a lot of thought and heart went into designing this game, and it pays off! The game is immersive and requires deduction and thinking, not just opening random code locks. For a 90 minute room, I was engaged throughout. The hosts were friendly and welcoming - they even mentioned that after our group they had a French group, so they were translating clues into French for them!!
