In the late 19th century, during an ill-fated Halloween service, the deranged minister of Crickley Church decided to kill his entire congregation after their confessions had convinced his twisted mind that they had, among themselves, committed the 7 Deadly Sins. In order to punish them for their sins, the evil minister passed around poisoned bread and wine. As the congregation choked on their last breaths, the minister incited a curse on the children playing in the rooms beneath the church, and then buried himself alive in the church’s hidden crypt, determined to haunt the church forevermore. Your Great Grandfather was one of those innocent children. You began to think back on the mysterious deaths of family members and close friends ever since that fateful night. Not wishing to take on such a daunting task alone, you have convinced your bravest friends to race to Crickley with you, break into the abandoned Church and find the hidden crypt. You enter the churchyard at 11 pm and the iron gates immediately slam shut behind you, locking you inside. The minister seems to be playing one last trick on you. Can you complete your mission and escape the church before the clock strikes Midnight? Or will you fulfill the curse and your name be the next on a headstone in your family’s graveyard plot? Find the hidden crypt, find the dagger, and drive it through the heart of the evil minister. Then and only then you will be saved and will destroy the curse forever. Be brave... Stay calm... Work together... But remember... Time is of the essence...

Solid room! Some of the puzzles were very interesting and clever. The fog was a little annoying, it was semi hard to breathe. The story was cool as well.

Overall a fun and creepy room. Our team of five enjoyed the experience immensely. Definitely one of their better rooms imo.

Puzzle Quality: 12/20 Looks/Theme: 10/15 GameMaster Rating: 8/10 Operation Fluidity: 4.5/5 Combined Rating: 34.5/50 Overall Difficulty: 4/10 Quick Notes: - Multiple rooms, small in size. CATEGORIES EXPLAINED IN MORE DETAIL BELOW: Puzzle Quality - How intuitive, logical, and unique the puzzles were. How well do the puzzles fit the theme? Looks/Theme - How much effort, time, and money went into making an immersive and unique atmosphere. GameMaster Rating - How attentive and helpful was the game master? Were the hints given in a timely manner and were they quality hints that helped but did not give you the solution too directly? Operation Fluidity - Was the game reset properly? Was it clean inside the room? Were the code entry and solution methods working properly as intended? Overall Difficulty - This is fairly subjective but is mostly correlated to how many total puzzles and how time consuming they each are compared against the 60 minute time limit that almost all rooms have. Combined Rating - Simply a total tally out of 50 of the four main categories. (Puzzle Quality and Looks/Theme are weighted a little more because they are the most important parts of having a good experience). The higher the number, the better the room! Just remember that a 5/10 or 7.5/15 or a 25/50 combined rating is an AVERAGE rating (for some reason in most people’s heads, a 5/10 is a below average or bad rating). So if a room has a combined rating of above 25, then it is a quality room and a good experience that I would recommend! It has to be a really well done room to score above a 35.

The room was ok.. it was a bit canned and the walls are so thin that you can hear the room next to you clearly. Not a fan

Not bad but nothing earth shattering. The puzzles weren’t really themed to the room theme making the story seem disjointed and several of the puzzles just seemed disconnected. Not eacapology’s best.

It was ok. If it’s your first escape room, you’ll probably love it. I didn’t like that I could hear the next door neighbors trying to escape. Sounded like they were banging into the wall a lot, which makes sense because the rooms are a little tight. I wouldn’t go in with more than four people. Overall the game was fun, we had a good time. I wish there was a neutral option on here because that’s what this deserves.

One of my first few escape rooms. Very immersive and decent puzzles! Smaller room but utilized space well.

Played this back in November last year. The room was great and the start was very enjoyable and unique. I like the scenery work they put into it. One puzzle is a bit gimmicky but besides that the puzzles were fun to work through.
