The principle here was simple to open every locker until you can finally go further both in the physical space and in the narrative. It was repetitive and draining in terms of room design.
There were a lot of interesting padlocks in a modern and futurist style, but this remained a fairly underwhelming experience in the end.
Honestly, THE worst game I’ve ever played.
Firstly, it was FREEZING cold in there, they had an electric heater in the room plugged in, which had exposed wires and was faulty. This was an accident waiting to happen.
So much stuff was broken including the tv screens.
The clue system (via a tablet) was the stupidest I’ve came across, which gives you limited clues and times you out.
The electric coded locks just didn’t work despite the right code, which also time out after each attempt.
Overall, it was just dreadful.
This is one of those 'creepy' games which are never quite as scary as they could be. We sailed through the first two thirds of this game, then got really hung up on something daft and wasted lots of time. Enjoyable, and the dressing of the room is much better than some of their others.
It's a weird game as the first part looks so high-tech and has a minor 'wow' moment when there's an unexpected game mechanism. The later parts of the game look a bit cheap and cheerful in comparison, and the puzzles aren't anything out of the ordinary. My least favourite room here, including the impossible Alice one.
Clue system is awful, just generic clues on an iPad after scanning a QR code - often telling you to do something that you’d already done. GM kept coming into game if we were stuck which disrupted the flow. Avoid this company.

Escape Reality's Leeds branch is out on the western side of the city sharing with a laser tag facility next to a major road; we managed not to miss the turning for them on the third attempt. Perhaps because of the location or the number of games they offer, we found it much easier to get some last-minute weekend availability with them to top up our schedule than with the various venues in the centre of town.
Unsure of which of their games to book in for, I used the dubious tie-breaker of seeing...
