Escape Hunt Watford: Alice In Puzzleland

Excellent theming with some really good puzzles. A couple felt a bit obtuse / could have required further signposting but was still enjoyable. 

This is not a well run Escape Hunt. The rooms were very tired and need maintenance. In this particular game, we were told to ring the bell if we needed help or a clue. There were several times where we were requesting a clue and we received no response. This was frustrating and ran down the clock. A lot of the tech was broken, one particular puzzle required us to line up several valves in the correct order. We did this correctly the First time and nothing happened, we requested help from the GM and they weren't able to override the puzzle so we were stuck for a significant amount of time. At this point we'd kind of given up. The experience here was poor. 

Not bad, good fun and challenging.

Hosting very good.

Shame about the pricing per person rather than room cost.

More than 3 people for this game probably not worth it. 

Basically just a ripoff of the old Time Trap game with similar theming, but done so much worse. 

This should have been a really good room, as it has potential, however a lot of the tech was either totally broken or flawed. A lot of time was wasted thinking a solution was wrong when actually it just hadn't triggered what it should and we ended up having to explain solutions to the GM over the tannoy so they could manually override catches when we did have the solution right, or just having to fiddle with putting the same thing into a the same place multiple times to get it to trigger. Real shame.
