Mr Copplestone aka “The Professor” is an inventor. His greatest invention is the world’s first time machine, built so he could travel through space and time to find interesting objects and life saving potions to sell in his curiosity shoppe.

The time machine is powered by Time Echo Crystals, these crystals are rare and only a small quantity exist in the world.  Without them the time machine won't work.

Such a precious commodity must be stored & guarded carefully to ensure the future of time travel can continue. There's just one problem with that - Mr Copplestone!

He may be a genius, but he's the most forgetful man you could ever meet.  This morning when he opened his box of Time Echo Crystals he found only one left inside, where could he have put them?

Mr Copplestone and his wife Margaret live on Chapel Street in the year 1873.  We can't rely on Mr Copplestone finding the missing crystals alone so if you're brave enough to jump into his time machine and use the last remaining crystal we have to head to 1873 you could save the future of time travel.

. However the time entry vortex is weak and can only stay open for one hour, get back inside before it closes and bring any crystals you find with you so we can keep them safe back in the future ready for our next time travelling adventure.

I have to start by saying I think this one is a little bit overhyped (it's impossible to ignore the off the charts attention and praise this room receives - I was expecting the floor to levitate or something) so if you're experienced with a fair number of rooms under your belt already, maybe temper your expectations a little bit (I wish I had..., the street/alley/avenue set is something that we have seen 3-4 times already now, I was hoping for something unique (although the rotations may provide that in the future)), but that said this is still a 5 star experience, it just didn't blow my mind like I was hoping it would! For me I actually think that for all the talk about the set, the story and the immersion, there's not enough praise of the puzzles themselves, and for what it's worth, for me as a whole package they are some of the best we have done in terms of the underlying logic and reasoning behind them. They really give you that sense of AHA! when you figure them out, and that is exactly what a good puzzle should do - not frustrate with leaps in logic but be just hard enough to make you work for the solution, and then wonder what took you so long! There were lots of 2-3 step thinking required which we found really enjoyable. I liked trying to get as many the crystals as you could as well (combined with the knowledge that you only needed 8 to get out, any additional were just stretch goals), and even though we were pretty short (it's nigh on impossible to get them all in a 2, I think you need 4 minimum, there's just too much to get through) it was great of the host to take us through those that we didn't get. If you're local however, I would recommend just playing again so you can do them all in two goes! Definitely looking forward to coming back and doing the other rotations!

The idea of puzzle quests has grown considerably with “Daylight Robbery” at Cryptology and “UI-55” at Compendium.  This is a similar idea where you have a considerable number of puzzles to solve in order to find time crystals.  The setting is amazing and reminiscent of “Loot the Lanes”, the more crystals you find then other shops open up to you.  Not all shops will as the overall game will change every so often almost guaranteeing repeat visits (I know I will).  A massive range of puzzles from obvious searches to cunning logic puzzles, audio driven ones and observational.

Our first ever escape room and what an introduction it was. Only after completing many rooms after this one do we appreciate how good this quest was.

A great expansive setting where you can see the love that has been put into every detail, nothing seems out of place and all the puzzles fit the room nicely. 

A must visit for anyone.

Finally made it to Escape Quest after hearing about it for several years and we were not disappointed! A brilliant company with enthusiastic and friendly owners. We loved this game, it was a lot of work and fun for a team of 2 but it was 60 minutes of joy.

Fantastic game with non-stop action and superb puzzles. Set design was spot on and our host Elaine was super friendly and gave helpful nudges when needed. Perhaps wish it was less padlock heavy but generally you knew which puzzle related to which padlock and all the puzzles were great fun, clever, and well signposted. Otherwise can't fault the room; it's amazing and absolutely worth playing.

Flawless. The most beautiful, immersive and well-constructed game we have ever played, with incredible hosting to boot. This is the gold standard of escape rooms.

Escape Quest in Macclesfield was one of the first operators in the UK. Mr Copplestone’s Curriosity Shoppe is quite a unique and challenging scenario for up to 10(!) people. I would recommend three to five players.

I particularly liked the game concept where all teams, regardless of experience level, are fully engaged for the entire 60 minutes. Given the non-linear puzzle structure, this applies to every single player! Puzzle lovers will get their money’s worth here.

This is a NEW review for the 2021 Newly opened version of Mr Copplestone!

The puzzles are brilliant and varied; the space is visually stunning; we had one of the most fun escape experiences we have ever had with this room; Mike and  Elaine have created a super original; innovative concept with this room; the game is exceptionally immersive and we can’t think of another room quite like it! As they are outstanding in every category for which we award, we have decided to award Mr Copplestone’s Curiosity Shoppe a Badge of Honour, our highest award, which we think is incredibly well deserved for the hard work and love Mike and Elaine put into their rooms.
I feel that I have to write this review quickly, mostly because the more I like a room the quicker I want to relive it in my write-up. And I really, really, really liked this room.
So good we had to play it twice! Click the link to read our review!
