Escapable: Avast!

Another solid game from Escapable, however probably the weakest game they have.

It's a nice standard room with nothing too far out there, unfortunately a few bits do look a bit sad now.

A lovely puzzle-packed pirate adventure that uses the space in inventive ways and that was incredibly accessible for the whole family. It might not provide enthusiasts with too much challenge but it is a very enjoyable puzzle romp.

We enjoyed this room a lot although it did feel a bit cramped and very claustrophobic, especially because it was July, the weather was warm and the room was sweltering hot, no air con only a small fan blowing. It felt very dry and humid in the room which did make it uncomfortable. We couldn't wait to get out to be honest!

Apart from that the actual game was good, it was medium difficulty. We managed to get all of the clues apart from about 3, we did collect a lot of coins but we only made 3rd on the leader board!

The host was very welcoming and friendly, the price is good.  They were very understanding when I needed to change my booking, because of a family bereavement. They changed it no problem without any extra fees.

The only other thing I would moan about is that they said they would email me a copy of our photo at the end, which i wanted as a keepsake (it was my son's 16th b'day)...it never came. However I would definitley go again and try another room. 

Theming of this room is good but felt a little bit cramped. The clue system stopped working part way through as it seemed to pick up another channel or something as we started hearing other activiety, we was then given a walkie talkie instead which worked until the end of the game. After playing Outatime this felt like a little bit of a let down but I will be back to play the new room and the titanic room

Very well themed. Some original puzzles that we’ve not seen elsewhere. Worth a go!

Fun points based puzzle game

A fun and enjoyable pirate themed room with some original puzzles. 

This room was new when we played it and we were determined to get the highest score available, top the leaderboard, and ruin the dreams of all children yet to play it. And we did. Great fun and I think kids would love this room. 

A broken prop within the room really faultered my enjoyment of this room. I get that mistakes can happen and things break, especially when things aren’t noticeable of first glance during the reset but we lost a good 10/12 minutes inside until we and the game master realised the puzzle/prop had been previously broken. Had we have had those minutes back, we’d have successfully escaped with everything the room had to offer. 

The room itself is actually quite fun. Great little second doubt elements where you have to sacrifice some of your collected items to receive help, it really made you think hard before asking for hints which was an element I’d not seen in other rooms. If I was to compare this room with other at the venue it would be in bottom place but it’s still a great room compared to others I have played at other locations. Attentive host and game masters. Really engaging before during and after gameplay. 

Rearly dissapointing as I love collect sort of games. Broken part of the game and no extra time given back. The host seemed like he didn't know what to do despite being amazing in the other 2 rooms

A couple of bits didn't make sense. Just not one for me

Nice box game that gave us some fun for a while.  Really good puzzles and would be cool to have it delivered to you.  

Great hosting and VERY family friendly. Played with a six year old and 3 adults and the six year old was very capable of figuring out the flow and many of the puzzle answers. There were lots of locks and a few very unique puzzles with this pirate them. It was nice not to have a telescape. I highly recommend for a family game.
