Doing 1 or 2 trials is easily achievable, getting 3-5 is possible, but unfortunatley they all get a bit samey. There's more walking from one end to the other than there actually is puzzle-solving. There are puzzles to solve, but nothing when compred to an Escape Room. Phantom Peak is not an escape room.
If you do not fancy interacting with the story/character, this really will not be for you. But if you go with the mindset of interactive well with the actors, you can and will have a great time.
Would I rush back? No. A new "story" is not enough to make me want to do more trials, as I cannot see how these trials will be super-varied, other than having unique interactions with the staff.
Would I go again? Yes.
The food is good quality too!
Not an escape room, and not really that puzzly, but definitely an experience. Enjoyed both the summer and Halloween runs so am very much looking forward to seeing where they take it next!
Awesome immersive experience, will be returning in the future for other expansions
Fantastic experience. Totally unique from anything I have done before and hillarious from start to finish. The actors were all amazing and I was completely immersed. Well worth a visit if you fancy something different!
Weird, wonderful, exhausting, entertaining, daft and downright ridiculous, Phantom Peak is an immersive experience not to be missed.
Is it an escape room...? Well, no... but this should by no means put escape room fans off going because it has so many elements of the theatre and story element that we love in escape rooms.
How to describe it then? It is an immersive town that you can explore at your own pace with live actors who you interact with through trails (accessed on your phone) to bring the experience to life. You can do as many or as few trails as you like and can have a drink/eat your way through the food menu/play games at your leisure. There's an opening and a closing ceremony to tie the four hour experience together but this really is something where the more you put in, the more you'll get back. If you're not keen on interaction and on throwing yourself into a role, then this might not be your cup of tea but if you are game for speaking to characters and immersing yourself in this platypus-obsessed world, then you are on to a winner.
Going over Halloween meant that we were there for the Lunar Festival and the town was suitably themed for spooky season. The decor really is superb and the actors go out of their way to make the whole experience feel genuine.
The trails themselves require very little puzzle-solving and a bit more of a challenge would be very welcome but the object here is to immerse yourself in this steam punk world and go on a few adventures along the way. It's a totally unique experience.
Brilliant, story-driven, character-interaction-led immersive theatre in a rich world full of lore. It's not an escape room and there are no puzzles to solve, just stories to discover and side-quests to complete.
Only criticism is that the experience is led by a mobile app (which, to be fair, worked flawlessly), which necessarily removes you slightly from the otherwise incredibly immersive world. But that's a minor downside, and I can't think of another way it could be facilitated.

I absolutely loved our time, and I will absolutely be returning, but there were definitely a few niggles here and there which will hopefully be ironed out as the experience expands. For a start, we heavily relied on my phone, which meant the battery ran down quickly. Luckily I had packed a portable charger, but even then I was down to 30% when we left. For such a phone-heavy experience, I was surprised by the lack of charging stations in the town – I can imagine some rentable power packs would be a big hit here!
Slightly longer review than normal, and for something that isn’t actually an Escape Room… But the crazy immersive open-world adventure of Phantom Peak was one of the highlights of our year.
Get lost in the immersive world of Phantom Peak, as they open for 5 hours usually between the times of 5pm to 10pm on Wednesdays through to Sundays (Saturday & Sunday have a 11am – 4pm slot). The gates open to this open world right on time, so we recommend being early to maximise your time here. You may question is it worth 5 hours? Our answer would be 100% worth every single minute you can be here, if anything 5 hours isn’t enough and multiple visits would be needed to explore everything and solve each mystery.
