This room was reasonably fun and there were some clever moments. The set design too was cool and creative, with there being a lot fit into the space. There were a few issues though with red herrings and padlock sign posting, which is never a good look. There were a couple of puzzles that we ignored at first because it looked like we would have to unlock padlocks to access them, but it turned out the puzzles could all be completed quite simply and without unlocking the padlocks as they were padlocks used to reset the room - there was nothing on the padlocks signposting this, and it was not addressed in the brief. Additionally, there were a few things that looked like puzzles but weren't. A particularly egregious example was framed like a word puzzle, complete with a bullet pointed list, but was actually not a puzzle at all. Additionally, some of the puzzles were a little illogical and again lacking signposting, and there were a couple of moments where the tech didn't work and our overstretched host didn't notice.
Additionally our host, whilst cheerful, was clearly overstretched and having to run multiple games at once - which is a little insulting at the price we payed. She was uninterested in talking to us before or after the game, not even seeing us to the door, and got us mixed up with the other group that she had! She also made the error indicative of an inattentive host - giving us no clues at the beginning, and then rushing us around in the last ten minutes once she noticed we perhaps weren't going to finish on time! The accent, however, was pretty top notch.
Aside from those few hiccups, however, this was a pretty fun time with some interesting puzzles, and a good option if, like us, you happen to be in the area for the day and are booking last minute.
Had some awful experiences in EH, but was pleasantly surprised here. This is like a early take on the collection genre. We managed to escape with everything! Choo choo!
Very interesting looking room but some puzzles were not put back together properly so we had access to a box when it should have been locked. Some parts didn't make sense either. Host was very in character but kept giving hints when they weren't needed or asked for and we felt rushed to finish even though we had plenty of time and didn't even access some puzzles. Not sure if the host knows how some of the puzzles work to be honest.
Some broken tech, tired puzzles and it was soooo HOT!
Escape Hunt Liverpool is such a great addition to Liverpool ER scene. While I have the tendency to avoid chains when booking escape rooms, I will highly recommend Escape Hunt Liverpool to anyone looking for an escape. There is real attention to detail and immersion that other Escape Hunt in the country didn't deliver. Escape the Wild West is no stranger to this, the atmosphere, the décors, the puzzles, the flow and logic were spot on. You do feel like you're in in to find the gold and escape in board of the District 1 train. Our game master, Sarah, was a true ER enthusiast (so enthusiastic that she forgot the hot drinks we ordered :)), she stayed in character throughout the whole game with a perfect American accent, we did feel like we were after Bill French's gold. I would highly recommend the room but would not suggest it for less than 3 people as we escaped with 6 seconds left on the clock after receiving 2 clues. The whole flow made sense but a couple of puzzles felt as if we didn't have all the instructions necessary to solve, as if they made sense to the designer when it was first created but the logic would not easily come to mind to most players. Another one was solved by us by skipping a step which didn't give the same feeling of completion as it was designed to. And finally one puzzle had a typo that made me wonder if it was a clue... We did feel the pressure on the last puzzle, so much so that we did sit down to recover from it! Another brilliant room. Thank you for bringing Escape Hunt to Liverpool.

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
