A walk in the enchanted forest has gone wrong, as you and your friends have gotten lost, and run out of food. Fortunately, you’ve come across a house made of gingerbread surrounded by gumdrop lampposts.
But things are much more sinister than they appear, and rushing in you’ve found yourself trapped by a witch’s curse. The witch is soon to return, but perhaps you can find some help in her wicked house, remember to follow the breadcrumbs to safety.

Great room. Took some beginners to this room and they loved it.
Update, 17/10/23. Since completed the room in 52 minutes.
The only Escapism room we've failed.
However it was very clearly human error and not a bad room - Escapism call this their easiest room however I disagree, Forge was a lot easier. It's a Hansel and Gretel themed room, you start separated with one in the oven and have to work together to get the one in the oven out. There are a good variety of puzzles, but we found a couple of them a little too tricky, which led to our demise! This is certainly not the room being too hard - we were clearly having an off-day and would love to try again. There are a variety of logic, maths, matching up and lock puzzles to get through and as always the GMs are enthusiastic, timely with hints and make you feel welcome.
I was very excited to play this room as like the idea of the team being split in two (two in the oven!), and the theme. However it just looked really poorly made, especially the ‘oven’ area. Some puzzles were nice but others were annoying and unintuitive. The host however was great and only clued a few times when needed. Very average.

Escapism Plymouth: Breadcrumbs
July 2023
Overview
This was our sixth and final room on our third visit to Escapism in Plymouth after just completing Radioactive and hour before hand. Our host for this game was again owner Lauren after she had eased our way through the previous game. The waiting area is very minimalistic but clean and tidy where there are window benches to sit and wait but we have never been waiting that long to get started. There is a refreshment area and a big cabinet selling a lot of home escape games. Lauren was kind enough not to go through the health and safety and padlock instructions due to us just completing a room.
Room impression
For this game you are split up to start. We were offered the opportunity to split up into pairs or one of us left the other 3. We opted for Tom to leave us and to be locked away. The rest of us were taken into the main room a couple of minutes later where we were given our briefing by Lauren regarding the mission. Even though we were separated, all of could see and hear the brief from Lauren and from the tv which was nice as when we were all together again, we didn’t have to explain anything to Tom. The room is set as an old fairytale kitchen and even though it’s got a dark twist to it, it is still well lit, and is very much much a family themed room. As with all their games, there are background noises to keep you immersed into the room and your mission and this is something that Escapism do really well.
Puzzles
This room started off with some decent puzzles that we could all do, even though separated and there was plenty enough for us to do. The puzzles stayed within the theme of the room, which isn’t always the case in some venues and there was enough for us to do separately. The room is also plenty big enough for big teams. Once we were all together, the majority of the puzzles were padlocks but there is a good variety of padlocks that you aren’t scrambling around trying a ton load of locks. The end game was different and got us all thinking and we actually completed the room without any hints as the room flowed really for us.
Game Master Clues
As mentioned, we didn’t require any hints with this room but we are sure Lauren would jump in and help if we needed it. The tv was only there as a timer for us but the games master can type out clues if needed. The tv makes a room themed noise if you do receive a hint to make sure you don’t miss it, which is a common but nice touch with Escapism.
Round Up
Breadcrumbs, we believe, is Escapism’s ‘easier’ room focused on families. However, this did not mean it was a walk in the park. As with all the rooms here, we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and Escapism is a must visit if you are in the local area. All the rooms are very different and there is something for everyone for every different difficulty level. The owners Lauren and Joe have done a brilliant job in putting this place together and making it a pleasure to visit. Remember, when you book another room there and then, you also get a little bit of discount which is great for returning customers. We are sad that we have completed the rooms that are there, however, we will be back for their seasonal room at Christmas.
