“An outstanding experience from start to finish. Wonderful decoration and theming throughout the room. There was a great mix of puzzles in terms of difficulty level and type, and we each got turns to feel a little slow or a bit smug. Our GM was as wonderful as last time we visited and was so kind and accommodating in helping us arrange a future visit with their special guest. We’d highly recommend this room and can’t wait to return.”

Faultmere School buzzed with whispers about a legendary prank that no teacher dared to discuss - a prank so clever it left a mark on the school's history. The whoopee cushion in question caused uncontrollable laughter during a very serious assembly on why "flatulence isn't funny." Now it's your turn to embark on a top secret mission: locate the infamous whoopee cushion that once belonged to the playground's pranksters.

“This a super fun room which houses a game of two halves. The main objective is to escape the room with a found object. After locating the object you are free to explore the classroom and solve brilliantly fun puzzles in order to collect stink bombs. The room is challenging enough and the time flies by. I think kids would particularly enjoy this one. Hosting from Mike is always perfect. He is engaging and always on hand to give a wee poke when needed.”

Journey into the land of the Brothers Grimm to restore order amongst the fairy tale folk. How many famous tales will you be able to piece back together in 75 minutes? Back in a magical time, the Brothers Grimm were the guardians of the land of fairy-tales, but something is wrong. The brothers are nowhere to be found and the stories are in disarray.

“So we’ve done this room twice! We didn’t get all the happily ever afters the first time! And we were determined to finish it. The puzzles are great. Lots to get through. Nice theming and quite a lot of difficulty in a few of the puzzles. I’d say working as a team of 3 or more would make it easier to complete all. We did as a two.”

“Thanks to Sam, great host. We loved the room, escaped in 51 minutes could have been quicker if we hadn’t of made silly errors and took longer over a couple of puzzles. The puzzles are a mixture of very hard to some being straight forward if you have the eye for spotting! Really enjoyed it, great links and great content.”

Number 669 has just gone up for sale… ​ Creaky floorboards. A bubbling cauldron. And a previous owner who may or may not have melted in the bath. You’ve booked a viewing. But the cottage has a few tricks up its sleeve...

“Love this room! The technology is amazing, lots of new puzzles. Very cleverly put together as always by this great company. Was fantastic. Escaped- didn’t need clues as such but a few nudges - Mike knows when we are going off on a tangent! Escapable are by far the best rooms we have done’”

Just another day living on the farm out on the Pontefract prairie land. The weathers changing, you and Toto are caught up in a cyclone that deposits you and the farmhouse into the magical land of Oz.

“An absolutely beautiful room, so so immersive with a fantastic GM. The gameplay and puzzles flowed so well. Usually if we find a room easy, we get out with lots of time to spare but that wasn’t the case in this room as there’s lots to do. Would 100% recommend, for both beginners and experienced players.”

We’re pitching for a new memory implant contract, and it’s a biggie, hopefully we might make some money if we bag this one! As part of the tender process, we have to put forward a quick, fearless, resilient and intelligent team. We didn’t know anyone off the top of our head, so we’ve dusted off an old asssessment system we used to use back in the 80’s. The system is a bit different to our experiments in that there’s probably more than a team could possibly do, but all puzzles are worth points, and the team with the highest score at the end of the hour will be crowned the best of the best! Assemble your best team mates and get ready for a frantic hour of solving puzzles; you have 60 minutes to score as many points as possible!

“We managed about 70% of the puzzles! So need to return! We scored 95,000 as we were slow on some puzzles. We need to return as loved it!!! Very overwhelming at first but then once you’ve cracked a few and worked out the tech side, it flows so well. We are itching to get back and complete it all!”

Can you discover the murderer's identity before he returns? Since we developed our memory implant technology we’ve been asked to solve various mysteries, but this one is probably our most sinister yet! Known only as the silent slayer, this murderer has claimed numerous lives over the years, and now that we’ve aquired some DNA from one of the victims we can finally send you back to their last memory to see if you can discover the murderer’s true identity before the victim met their demise. Will you be lost in the woods?

“Wow! Played this one with Ed as our games master and boy was I scared. He was the perfect host for this game. The puzzles are tricky but they also made harder with the aspect of the room and the darkness! And the scare factor. Which hugely adds to the atmosphere of the room and is amazing! Haven’t been able to do a live actor one since though 😆”

For years there have been whispers of a top-secret facility hidden somewhere in the English countryside, where inhumane experiments have taken place on animals and humans alike. There have been all sorts of rumours about cloning, sinister hybrid species and mutants created by evil scientists. But that is all they have ever been. Just rumours. Are you brave enough to enter Clearsafe? With live actors, jump scares, special effects and a series of multi rooms to complete, Clearsafe is a whole new experience. Designed to suit your group, you choose the level of theatre in your room from mild interaction and thrills suitable for the whole family through to full on jump scares that tests the fear factor.

“This is an awesome game. It’s highly rated for a reason and it more than matched our expectations which doesn’t always happen. The GM was so invested and we got full value with lots of screams and fun with these perfectly themed puzzles which were actually really good, way better than most ’horror’ themed rooms. Really enjoyed, great people, if you want a bit of a scare without being stupid really recommend this one”
