Brent Chadwick had a rough childhood. He grew up in the shadow of his mother, Lucille, who was the founder of the “Church of the Untemptables” (COTU). The COTU was a Christian-fundamentalist church in the eighties that preached: “Resist all temptations, but if you aren’t able to resist, you still have the chance of salvation if you punish yourselves equal to the sin you have committed.” So no wonder Brent went crazy and, after his mother died, moved to a hidden room – the very room you are about to enter. This strange place is full of traps. The only way to escape is to find the urn of Lucille’s ashes. If you fail and are still here after an hour, Brent will arrive home and I wouldn’t want to be in your shoes when he does.

I did this one quite a while ago, but I remember it was pretty atmospheric and had a couple of really nice moments. I was annoyed at one of the puzzles but wouldn't have been if I'd worked it out! Certainly could be better but I'm glad we did it.

Worst room by far out of 70+ rooms played. Random puzzles having no link to the theme, ridiculously difficult puzzle at one point that even the GM couldn't do when they came into the room to assist. Ignored by the GM several times when asking for a hint. Poor signposting between clues and tech that didn't work. Absolutely dire game, if it was your first escape room you'd probably never do another.

The Worst Room I Have Ever Played
This was my 78th escape room, and it was the worst
I have ever done.
Story
For an undisclosed reason, you go into some guy
called Brent’s room. He went crazy because of his religious mother. You have to
put her ashes in their ‘rightful resting place’ in order to get out before
Brent comes back.
Puzzles
Puzzles did not match the theme: they were woefully
basic, and some looked out of place. The practical challenges of lifting a
small weight and operating a little solar powered train proved boring and
frustrating. The Game Host had to come in because the latter wasn’t working as
it should.
Mise-en-scene
The room itself was sparse and scarcely decorated
to suit the occult church/tomb theming referred to in the storyline.
Final Comments
‘Blackpool’s best Escape Games’ could not be further
from the truth. This was a pathetic excuse of an escape room. Were it not for
prolonged closures because of Covid affecting local businesses, I’d have asked
for my money back. When I left this review on TripAdvisor, the manager accused
me of making it up. I replied via email detailing the date and time of the
booking, and stating I have no reason to upload fabrications. He’s yet to
respond.
I'm writing this review more than two years after playing the TRAP rooms, so my memory is unreliable and they may have changed anyhow - the Bomb Room for one appears to no longer exist. Also, we played all four rooms in a crazy consecutive burst of enthusiasm, which makes it harder to remember which was which.
However, it's safe to say that the TRAP rooms were good mass-market escape rooms with more of a emphasis on physical puzzles, almost with a Crystal Maze feel. Everything's robustly design...
Another great TRAP-designed room. One skill based challenge is likely to frustrate, particularly for shorter players so if you lack patience make sure you bring the right people along! Great them and a good final puzzle.
