Dwayne O’Donnell’s gang rules the Southern States, known for his fast bikes and sweet moonshine, but some family drama means he ain’t sharing the goods no more. Desperate for a taste of Dwayne's legendary hooch, your host plans a break-in. Just hope it doesn't become a break-OUT…

Loads of fun! Our host was brilliant, shame we didn’t catch his real name! Fun puzzles and a brilliant end set piece!

Our third and final room here, and its a shame there aren't more. The hosting here is like nothing else, very theatrical, the games hosts are very in character and do not break at all. The hosts were amazing (Rusty and Brandy). The game itself was really well themed, well maintained, everything worked. There was one puzzle that made no sense to us, and even when we had been spoonfed clues, it still didn;'t make sense. When we finally got it, it was a bit disappointing to realise what the solution was, as it just seemed like a really badly thought out puzzle and I cant image many people get it without help (although maybe they do?!) 

The rest of the game was great though, great start, great ending. 

They also somehow remembered us from last time, and one particular incident involving a bottle of mayonaise that I had with me last time, and im not sure how because the two hosts we had today were not involved with that, but somehow they recognised us anyway and dropped a little private joke in, which is very impressive.

Hounds have made three absolutely amazing games all in one location and all for their first ever rooms.This is their Hill Billy moonshine hunt, starting in the mechanic's shop to look for the precious home made booze. The host in this (Arnold/Trucks) was totally brilliant, not dropping his ridiculous southern American accent for one second and, dare I say it, revelling in his role (which is lovely to see). The game is tons of fun, the puzzles flow well and the ending is thoroughly enjoyable (and makes for great photos). A totally superb game, go and have some fun.

Plenty of immersive fun in this red neck rodeo. Good use of space, some strong puzzles and immersive decor. In character intro - would be great to see the hill billy character appear during the experience to possibly facilitate a puzzle interaction etc.

Good room. Out of the three at the venue this was our least favourite although it was still worth doing! The start was great and the end was good fun, the middle bit not as much. We unfortunately had quite a few broken elements in our experience. Very original though!

The US Deep South is not a common setting for an escape room, but if the clever pun of Hounds Escape’s second game hadn’t made the theme clear, the appearance of our host certainly would have; gleefully over the top, he took the stereotype of a southern US hillbilly and doubled down on it, lacking nothing but the ominous sound of Dueling Banjos in the background.

Your task is to break into the hideout of a rival gang and steal their moonshine, and in practice the game combines elements of break...

Hounds Escape impressed us with their debut game, and their second may be even better (I can’t decide - it would be like choosing a favourite child if I had any). If you’re looking for an hour filled with amazing scenery, fantastic puzzles, and a whole lot of laughs, you won’t go wrong getting yourself over to Hounds Escape for a little Southern Discomfort.

This is a game that is going to please everyone who plays it, not only are the puzzles excellent, but the room is just so. much. fun.

Yesterday we posted our review of Questionable Ethics at Hounds Escape Rooms in Crawly, but they have a second room which we also did in Southern Dis-comfort. This hillbilly themed escape room has received high reviews from other escape room enthusiasts and was the reason we originally booked to visit Hounds. We were greeted by our host Joel Cassidy who led us up stairs to the room. The entry way is themed and its immersive straight away. He explained that he loved Dwayne's moonshine but its made by a rival clan so he needed us to go an steal some. We were game. He put us in front of two doors and then encouraged us to enter.

The craziest and funniest hour of hill billy fun we could have imagines. One of our all time favourite rooms thanks to brilliant design, an awesome team and humour. Well worth a visit.
