Houdini’s Escape Room Experience Southampton: Space Break

a solid room, theme was good and the props were fairly well put together. an unfortunate mishap with something not working as intended in the first part of the room put the start on a bit of a dampener but the host was brilliant and more than made up for the interruption honestly. immersion was decent, the level of the puzzles varied to the point where we were overthinking some of the more basic ones as a couple felt like they were "trickier" and we assumed the rest would match.

ending was okay, i can see why other reviews say it fell a little flat but it wasn't bad by any means. i think the room probably deserves a slightly lower rating but our experience was enhanced by an absolutely fantastic host which is why i've rated the experience as i have. i'd say this room is worth a go especially if you're a fan of this type of genre.

Something just didn't flow for this game for us.
But the most disappointing is that they ripped off an amazing interaction/clue system from a game from Barcelona.

With a seemingly great start (not for the claustrophobic) sadly it was all downhill with illogic puzzles and searching. 

The ending was a bit of a letdown 

The main part of this game is somewhat high-tech, but didn't really flow for us. The interaction from the game and the host overlapped at times, making it difficult to follow. The ending could be better (a similar ending at a different company in Kent implemented it brillitantly). Host however was great.

A good, solid room that impressed us with its set and story. Puzzles were catering more towards the "corporate" market, and enthusiasts will find the room entertaining but probably not the most challenging.
