The show is about to start… but chaos is in the air. The circus tent is packed, the lights are ready, and the crowd is buzzing with excitement. But disaster has struck backstage—Bozo the Clown has lost all his juggling balls! And the culprit? None other than Barry the mischievous carnival monkey. With time ticking and Coco the ringmaster threatening to feed Bozo to the lions, it’s up to you and your team to save the show! You’ll need sharp eyes, quick thinking, and just a little bit of monkey logic to track down Barry’s trail and recover the missing juggling balls. You’ve got 60 minutes to make things right. Can you outsmart a monkey and save the circus? The show must go on!!

Absolutely loved this room, did it as a two and just escaped with 12 seconds to spare. Perfect variation of padlocks and fun activities to complete. Looking forward to the second room opening soon, will definitely be back and recommend this one to everyone. Lovely host Jenny, had a nice chat before and after and was great with giving clues :)

The most fun we have had in ages! So much to do and solve but more importantly we had so much fun.

What a lovely venue with great people who are clearly passionate about their game and soon to be games. Really fun feel with a good mix of puzzles with a few physical elements thrown in. Lots to do and kindly gave us the extra time we needed to complete. We did need a few nudges to get us back on track but really enjoyed it. Very impressive for a first room, will be back for the next

Bazinga! This is one of the most unique rooms we’ve done with a lot of unique puzzles. Jenny’s hosting was excellent and incredibly friendly. This is Clue Collectors first room and I’m really excited to see what comes next (although we managed to get a sneak peek).

Brand new room and the operator was kind enough to show us the whole site and show us what is in progress. A real passion project and I can see the future rooms only getting better!

Needed a bit of background music or something like that but it’s such a new room that you can see it’s still working out how to be the best it can be

We loved this room. It was so much fun from start to finish. The theme was great, and the puzzles flowed really well. We escaped just in time. The owner is so lovely, and has clearly put a lot of thought, time and effort into creating the experience. Can’t wait for the next room!
