🐶👶Once upon a time….
…there was an old run-down house where some children lived with their foul aunt and uncle.
Whenever they were left in the house, they were locked in the living room and longed to escape to a happier place.
They puzzled over a curious locked door in the corner of the room, from behind which they had heard laughing and screams of joy.
They fantasized about the fun they could have in that room, and that just maybe the way to escape their misery lay beyond.
One day the aunt and uncle left the children and told them they would be back in an hour’s time.
The children decided this was the time to find a way into the forbidden room of fun, and possibly find a way to escape…

A love letter to the 80s! This is very much a game to two halves, the first part is relatively linear from puzzle to puzzle but then it becomes very non-linear with a wide range of puzzles (including some tricky dexterity based ones). This is very family friendly with some great moments that should leave you with a smile on your face.
Wow! What a fantastic room with a unique premise and just lots of fun! We completed this as a team of 2 and god was it difficult but so much fun. I would recommend at least 3 people for this room as there are quite a few physical puzzles and it's non-linear so you can split up to tackle.
We opted to take on the room on hard mode (the addition of a puzzle which adds ~10 mins to the game - stupid of us really as we were just a team of 2 on this occasion) and we got out in 62mins (if only our hubris hadn't gotten in the way!)
They're opening up a new room later this year and we absolutely cannot wait to take this on too!
My mum and I stumbled across this company on the internet after we had exhausted the majority of our other local escape rooms.
Being my 53rd game I was looking for something a little different and the Forbidden Room of Fun certainly did not disappoint. Our games master was welcoming and the game themeing and story was equally great. We completed the room as a a team of 2 (with 5 minutes bonus time) and it was good that we could set the level of difficulty before beginning. I think larger groups would also enjoy playing this game as there is a fair bit to do.
We are looking forward to trying Escape the Chop at their other venue.
Great new room here in Basingstoke. Some really interesting puzzles and new concepts we haven't seen in our 50ish rooms. 5 and 8 year old both found puzzles that they could get stuck into too. GM Tilly was great at giving nudges/clues when needed but let us get on with it the rest of the time. Can't wait for the upcoming Peter Pan room 🙂
Great room! Very playful and some ingenious puzzles to solve. Nice and bright! You can choose “easy”, “medium” or “hard” difficulty when you book the room. We did it on “hard”
It had some enjoyable puzzles. It goes from exceptionally linear to having quite a range of puzzles people can do at once. Some of the puzzles were very original.
I would say the theming didn't really hit home and there were no real 'wow' moments. Felt a bit flat at the end of the escape.
This was a great room with loads of fun puzzles, and very well themed. Plenty for all of us to do and you can work on several things at the same time. It would be especially good for families as there were some really fun bits that our 12 year old loved, but a great room for anyone.
Good room with some excellent theming, and quite immersive. We particularly enjoyed the non-linear design of the room, meaning that all team members could be doing something without waiting for an alpha player to solve a bottleneck puzzle.
Quite possibly the most fun room I have ever played, really well thought out, would be good for younger people just getting in to escape rooms
