EO Escape Rooms: Joey’s Christmas Cracker

Wow, what an incredibly fun game to play! I absolutely loved how frantic it was and how much there was to solve. The game itself is beautifully designed, and it's a real shame it's closing soon. However, I'm so glad we managed to experience it before it ended, as it features some truly stunning moments. As I've mentioned in previous reviews, there are plenty of those "kick me" moments I adore – those moments when you've been approaching something the wrong way, and suddenly the lightbulb in your head turns on and you think, "Ah, of course!" This game is brilliant for that. 

It also offers such a unique twist on a Christmas-themed game, moving away from the typical "saving Christmas for Santa to deliver presents" storyline. What I really appreciated was how it was clear that everyone involved in creating this room had a great time, putting their heart into building it and coming up with the puzzles.

EO keep smashing it, and this time with a wonderful padlock-heavy room! A great use of the old scarlet space. Great hosting as always, thanks Kelly!

Get down to play this before Joey runs away again in Feb 

Yet another great game from the team at EO. Lots to do and a huge variety of puzzles to go with it. 

Another great EO room, well thought out and creatively made. Kodi is a brilliant games master, which is not surprising as she learned from the best! We played it as a group of six and there was plenty of for everyone to do and could work independently and together to solve the puzzles. 

A simply fantastic Christmas room with great hosting by (Kelly). There were so many puzzles, it was none stop, great sign posting providing a really nice flow. 

Brilliant room with lots going on! Who doesn’t love a Christmas theme! Kids absolutely loved it. Kodi was great! Confident, helpful, friendly and made the experience fun! 10/10

We love EO Escape rooms and this one was just perfect. Lots of puzzles to save the elf’s but they all made sense and we could be working on different puzzles at the same time. Loved the theming, the humour and the game.

Amazing room and completely different to Scarlet the original room which it was. Kodi was fantastic at hosting and really helped get us into the Christmas spirit. We completed the room as a team of 2 and we were non stop throughout, the puzzles were extremely fun and there was so much tension and exhilaration throughout the whole time. We recommend everyone to do this for a good Christmas room this season. 

We love EO's Christmas rooms. I am continually impressed by their re-use of space from old games, and this was no exception.

The story this year involves Joey reappearing and more Christmas shenanigans. This game really played to our strengths as a team - very non-linear and a huge variety of puzzles.

As with other EO games, we really liked the addition of a second objective once the main one was completed, and the method of delivery for this made the game even more magical and enjoyable.

EO is a must-visit for us as soon as they open a new game.

The magic of Christmas has once again arrived at EO Escapes and as expected Kelly has created another amazing room.

Joey is back - this time with a great collection style game (which I LOVE) it means you cannot fail, with the added element that YOU are in control of stopping the clock this game is perfect for enthusiats, beginners, familys - everyone. 

Great signposting, themeing and some fun puzzles to get stuck into - DO NOT Miss this game this festive season - bookings are open now and I expect they'll fill up fast!
