You are Robert Montgomerie, the only remaining direct heir to the Kildermorie Estate and the Montgomerie family fortune. You’re attending a family gathering, hosted by your Grandfather, Hugh ‘Monty’ Montgomerie, the 9th Earl of Kildermorie to celebrate the dawn of the new Millennium. As the guests raise a toast, a scream fills the air…Your Grandfather is found dead in the library - and it looks like MURDER! Suddenly, you’re bundled into the Drawing Room and the door is locked. Confused, you bang on the door and call for help until it dawns on you... that as the direct heir, all fingers are pointed at you! You realize you’ve been framed! But who would want to kill your Grandfather… and why? You overhear the Police being called, but know that, as the Kildermorie Estate is hidden deep in the Scottish Highlands, it will take them 60 minutes to arrive. The only evidence that proves your innocence is hidden in the Mansion… For centuries, the Montgomerie family assigned a single gatekeeper to its secret family history. The Earl’s sudden demise means he can no longer pass-on these secrets, but the wise old man ensured there was sufficient evidence, hidden throughout the family residence, should anything unexpected happen to him! What he didn’t anticipate is you’d need to uncover these secrets in only 60 minutes! Will hidden clues reveal distant family secrets? Can you gather enough evidence and piece the story together to prove your innocence? And the biggest challenge of all... is it even remotely possible to solve the mystery before the clock strikes 12? Success means freedom, fortune and saving the future of your family… Failure means life behind bars...Do you have what it takes to find the family killer before you are framed and lose your inheritance? Time is of the essence!

Was ok. Lost a ton of time to a puzzle that didn't work. When we were trying to tell the GM that something was wrong, they might have been running another room. A bit dissapointed here, but overall this company has great rooms.

one of their more difficult games and it shows. some puzzles can be brute forced, we actually skipped through a hefty part of the game. a lot of use has been done to this game and the room seems to be held together by sheer willpower. difficult in execution but a straight forward struggle none the less

Pretty good room. We have a group of five and I’ll say I wish we’d been able to solve multiple puzzles at once. A lot of the time it was just two or three people solving one puzzle at a time. Also, the hint person was just a tad too helpful toward the end. They were slammed at the moment, though, so I think they just panicked a bit

A difficult and convoluted game. Without hints, this is more of a 1:15 game based on my experience as well as the complexity and number of puzzles. Often times the puzzles tried to be difficult but were just confusing in the end. Escapology games seem geared for you to be force-fed clues the entire time to keep the game moving and this is no different.

A lot of convoluted puzzles. Probably not a typical 1 hour game.

Historical whodunnit where the puzzles unfold the story. Linear flow, minimal decor in a well-kept space. There was one puzzle that required making an unintuitive association but a clue got us going again. The hints are pre-packaged which means any request for hint explicitly tells you how to solve the puzzle. Zero red herrings, and our GM was briskly efficient. The Cheesecake Factory of escape rooms - an extensive menu, reasonably enjoyable, and with the polished service of a company that services hundreds of customers daily.
