As always with Escape Hunt, no effort has been spared making sure the theme is on point; some great challenges and quirky problems to solve.
Great hosting (in Liverpool) that helped to make the experience incredible. Seems to be a trend in these reviews that they are always adding to immersion!
I'm not an avid escape room participant, so some people may disagree, but I thought the puzzles were a good mix of difficulty, with some that we could solve near-instantly and a few that took multiple minutes - I think across the hour, we had two proper hints and one confirmation of something we suspected (we bought it up but felt it was a bit crazy - appreciated the host confirming we were on the right track, though I know everyone would handle that differently). No tech issues, albeit some clear wear and tear in certain aspects of it, and the set-up was done perfectly for us.
I can see the set was designed to e beautiful, but a lot of it was damaged when we played it. Puzzles didn't work. Props were holding together with black tape. It was very underwhelming.
Forewarning: you are not allowed to take ANYTHING into the room, and you MUST leave your phone outside the room.
Good theming, a few odd puzzles (including one that requires the game master to be watching carefully and deciding if you've "passed" or not). The shooting gallery / gun element from the trailer has been removed and replaced with elastic bands, which was a big shame.
The room is non-linear, so if you're playing in a large group then you will miss a lot of content.
One broken prop (an engine valve), which seemed like a clue but actually wasn't, which cost us a lot of time.
Pressured by staff member into leaving a good review because they apparently get paid time off work if they get good reviews, which felt awkward.
Escaped with all gold & coal collected.
Very worn out and a couple of odd puzzles. Wouldn't recommend this room.

Picking a game for the afternoon slot at Escape Hunt's Oxford branch was a choice between pirates and cowboys, and we chose the latter. Wild West casts you as lucky but imperilled miners: having discovered a rich seam of gold in a remote and dusty frontier town (incongruously but conveniently already formed into bars), you now need to make a quick exit by train before the local gangsters arrive to take it all from you.
That premise is used for an unusual scoring system. You need to find as many...
Escape Hunt, Oxford impressed us with one of our favourite games to date. Since playing ‘Escape the Wild West’ we’ve been and played all the other rooms at Escape Hunt, Oxford
