Heart Of The Mountain

Heart of the Mountain is unlike a traditional escape room. It's a full-blown Indiana Jones-style adventure. From the moment you step into the lobby and are briefed on your mission, you're completely immersed in the experience. The mechatronics, sound design, and environmental effects are outstanding. They genuinely make you feel like part of an expedition crew journeying through the jungle and deep into the earth.The attention to detail is incredible, and the immersion never lets up. My only minor criticism is that some sections are very dark, perhaps a little too dark at times. I'd recommend providing at least one torch per team, as we found ourselves stuck on a few occasions simply because the lighting was so low. That said, this was an absolutely incredible experience and one of the most memorable adventure-style rooms I've done. I'm already looking forward to whatever they create next.A special thank you to Jess, who looked after us throughout the experience. She was patient, welcoming, and incredibly accommodating despite our late-night booking and the fact that we ran over time. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a truly immersive adventure rather than a traditional puzzle-focused escape room.

Incredible set design, some of the best I’ve ever seen. Whilst not a traditional escape room, in the sense of not using ciphers or usual puzzles, the experience heavily involves physical interaction with the environment. Like the hosts (Oliver and I’m so sorry I forgot the other hosts name, but y’all were incredible) mentioned, it felt very much like playing “Uncharted” or “Tomb Raider” in real life. I’d highly advise to keep this on your Wishlist, for places to try. I attempted it with 3 people total, and we finished in about 62 minutes, so I’d maybe aim for a maximum 5 or 6 in your group, but best experienced with 4. I sincerely look forward to returning when their next experience opens up. :)

Very unique experience that is different from many traditional escape rooms. Extremely detailed set and props that interconnect very impressively within the rooms. A lot of the puzzles were high-tech and involved moving parts and contraptions. The theme and story were presented well, pretty much everything was perfectly run by the staff too. Would highly recommend. Only thing to note is the overall difficulty of the escape room was more on the relatively easier side, yet it still provided satisfaction when complete.

Had such a great time at this room. It’s a little different from the standard escape room experience, but still has all the puzzle solving elements you could want, combined with a real adventure experience feel. Absolutely a must visit for any escape room fans, regardless of level of experience.

Such a cool adventure! Definitely a notch above typical escape rooms, in fact, escape isn’t the point, unlocking the story is. This place has such fun mechanical puzzles; you really feel like you are taking on this adventure, rather than just solving puzzles to unlock things. I’ve never seen such freedom to engage and interact with the rooms! Steve (the creator) and Jess (our park ranger guide) were fantastic! I can see why they want you to have at least 3 people to do this, but my wife and I were able to do everything just the two of us (with a little more hectic running than you otherwise might have). Highly recommended, even to jaded escape roomers!

We loved this room! It was more about the experience and the story, rather than it being an escape room. It was extremely well built, with great sounds and props. It really was more about experiencing the story and connecting with the story! The escape room elements were cleverly done and we loved completely the room! We would have loved to have seen more puzzles and moved through the rooms more quickly, but this isn’t a traditional escape room and we needed to let go of these traditional expectations! Very very well done! Thank you for having us!

This is our favourite escape room ever. And we have reviewed so many around the world. It makes sense why this won awards now. It truly feels like you are in a real movie and the puzzles aren’t so much lock and key it’s more interactive than that which is SO refreshing. When people reviewed this as an “experience” we were expecting to just look at things and touch things but no it’s all puzzles that require you to think which makes it so much fun. The engineers built elevators, slides, caves, waterfalls, you name it. And it feels like it never ends. The rooms keep going and going. Do not rush through it take your time because it’s not a room that you have to rush through. The game master will guide you if needed. We took a whole 90 minutes to finish it. Our game master Steve was incredibly sweet and really immersed us into the story before beginning! If you are here on travels and only have time for one escape room DO THIS ONE!!! it is so so worth it.

This is very much not a traditional escape room. It is more of an immersive experience which happens to have puzzles to solve. If you come with the expectation that this is like most other escape rooms, then you will be disappointed. However, if you come with the expectation of a fun experience, this is fantastic. Don’t rush through. Allow the story to unfold around you.

By far the most immersive room I've done, so mechanical and so unique.

What an amazingly crafted experience! It's definitely not like your typical escape room, more like an theme park experience with puzzles elements weaved through the set. The room is beautiful! There are so many things the designers have done to make the set look amazing, Actual theme park quality type of design and every detail in the room was made to further immerse players in to the room! Puzzles were also great, they are integrated in with the story and are tasks that you need to complete to proceed further and are all completely mechanical. I hear they are currently working on a second room, and they has a massive amount of space to work with so I'm excited to see what they cook up!
