Experienced escapers will find this room quite easy as most of the clues are very obvious if you know what to look for. But the theming and props were truely perfect so makes this a really memorable and worthwhile visit! An absolute favourite for me! And the host Rory was great too.
Gameplay
Theme and setup was great. Followed the theme well the whole way.
Atmosphere
Beautiful set design. Felt truely like you were in Diagon Alley! Set design was excellent.

Great room for kids. We battled head to head as a family (parent & child vs parent & child). Had an absolute blast.

Highly accommodating for the fact that I had done 30-40 escape rooms. Gave a brief overview of necessary info then challenged me to a 10 min time penalty for any clue I ask for, the rest of my family could have infinite clues.

AWESOME theming as usual with Scram escape rooms. As per other Scram escape rooms, I find that most of them could do with more complex puzzles for the more experienced groups like ours. This one in particular could do with a few more puzzles. Awesome that you can go head to head in this room, looking forward to other rooms as their Penrith branch is massive!

Great theming and aesthetic, let down by multiple set up mistakes (locks not reapplied, items left out/incorrectly placed, missing game master (busy helping the other room so didn't hear our comms). Honestly cannot believe this from Scram, who are normally top notch in organisation. Brought visitors from Japan to participate and it was very disappointing.
Gameplay
It was a bit stilted and relied on poor visibility to make the puzzles more difficult.
Atmosphere
Well modelled.
Customer service
Game master kept saying he didn't know how the multiple set up mistakes were made. No responsibility taken.

Absolutely loved this room from Scram, the quality of the decor and props were fantastic and the puzzles were great and engaging. There are coloured lights in one of the rooms that may not be good for people who are colour blind. Can’t wait to see the next room to open.

The Sorcerer's Secret at the new Penrith venue marked my 25th escape room experience and the 22nd for our group, and it was truly amazing. As expected from Scram, especially their new venues, the quality was top-notch. The pre-room area was fresh and modern, and the actual room had a beautiful aesthetic—another excellent production by Scram. The theming and immersion were spot on, with a good mix of lock, key, and high-tech puzzles. The room's quality was almost perfect, as expected from a new establishment. Our Gamesmaster was enthusiastic and hosted us well, although we did have a minor issue with them attempting to steer us in the right direction when we were already cruising with 20 minutes on the clock. Despite this, we managed to escape with 12 minutes remaining and unanimously agreed that we had a lot of fun. We're eagerly anticipating the release of a new room from the same branch at Scram!
