A beautiful game with some quirky, pretty details that uses space extremely well. The puzzles are satisfying and plentiful but the real beauty - and additional half star - is the inventive nature of some of the puzzles. While some earlier on are run-of-the-mill, the games progresses into some clever spaces that incorporate some delightful challenges.

It is always a pleasure to see family run, independent rooms opening up and this room is tucked away on the ground floor of a shop in a small seaside town, adding to that homemade charm.

The owners are keen enthusiasts and have managed to squeeze a lot into a small space. There's an emphasis on codes and locks and there are plenty of those to go round.

A wholesome romp around Mr Cooper's garden, this lovely game features a plethora of gardening tropes, including - of course - a whole jolly host of characterful gnomes. Puzzles are inventive and plentiful, with a very welcome additional puzzle chain added on at the end for those who zip through the main challenge.

The games here at this lovely, independent escape room centre aren't big or particularly fancy but what is done so well here is invention and that personal touch that makes whatever you are doing feel a little bit special.

Being in a hut in Antarctica, there are lots of obvious trappings and nods to the theme that one would expect... and a few one wouldn't. One particular moment - no spoilers - was just... gorgeous.

Adorable. We had mouse ears on and fed fish to a cat while trying to steal a big wheel of cheese and I don't know what more anybody could ask for.

We did this on challenging mode and brie-zed through it but that's not to say it was completely straightforward. It's a delightfully quirky game with some lovely puzzles; young children and big kids alike will love it.

It's a testament to how good Mindworks is as a venue that of their three permanent games, there's not one that we wouldn't recommend. Mission Berlin is perhaps their most straightforward, 'classic' escape room that is arguably less impressive than the other two but that's not to say that it isn't a cracking room with a theme that really appeals and a nice variation in puzzles. There's plenty of observation needed in here but it's all very logical and linear.

We loved the concept, loved the hosting, loved the wacky hullabaloo of the whole experience; it's a puzzle-fest that will result in a slightly different game every time you play and I'd happily walk right back in and play it all over again.

Immersive from the moment we stepped in, this game flowed flawlessly. A delightful combination of physicality and padlocks, it was a clever use of space that really demonstrated the skill of the design; a hybrid of introduction and gameplay blurred where the startline was, which was both novel and effective.

A combination of great hosting, some quality puns, some original puzzles and a focus on communication and teamwork make this a quality escape room that we would certainly recommend. There is one particular moment that stands out as being absolutely lovely and certainly a first for us!

Super hosting in particular from Dr Chisel Tenderloin, who really upped the enjoyment factor.

Dover Castle is a real hotbed of history so it does seem appropriate that they have a historical escape room with a wide appeal in the depths of the many miles of tunnels built into the cliffs under the castle. It's a traditional kind of escape rooms with plenty of padlocks, genuine historical props to interact with and a straightforward story that ties in well with Dover Castle's more recent history.

Puzzles are straightforward but well put-together and, while a little more signposting would probably be helpful for less experienced teams, it flows well and makes sense.

Our GM was an absolute delight; she was incredibly friendly and enthusiastic and it was a real pleasure to meet somebody who just loves their job.

It is a lovely little room that is perfect for less experienced teams and those looking to delve into the history of Dover Castle a little deeper (no pun intended). Enthusiasts will tear through it but that's not to say that it isn't charming and enjoyable.

In all honesty, I don't have the superlatives to describe how great this game is.

Imagine everything that makes an escape room a top-rated experience: a beautiful set; an expansive floorplan; a compelling storyline; high-quality puzzles; physical elements; the unexpected... I could go on. This game has all of these in spades. It's a slick, witty behemoth of a game that just keeps on giving... and giving... and giving. We were barely into the first room when we were looking at each other in amazement and this didn't stop until the game had finished.

More than style though, this game has substance. The puzzles are excellent and are woven beautifully into the story and the setting. If I could go back in and play it again immediately, I would.

It is an absolute must-play.

A gloriously mad experience that combines decent puzzles with an utterly bonkers story, culminating in some of the most fun we've had in an escape room (albeit spending the occasional bewildered moment not quite knowing where to go next...) 

While it could do with a few more puzzles, particularly for bigger teams, it doesn't detract from the experience, which is top quality.

A wonderfully creative use of space with plenty to do and a very impressive range of invention when it comes to puzzle-design. It's the kind of room that is full of lovely 'little bits' that just adds to that notion that someone who really loves escape rooms designed this escape room... Nothing brings more joy to me than opening a box to find more smaller boxes inside, each of them locked shut with a different kind of padlock.

EO is a lovely place run by people who care; your experience really matters to them and that's really clear in how their games are designed and the experience they offer. It's a bit hot in this room... so before we tackled our next room, we were given cold bottles of water. We were doing three rooms... so Kelly tried to arrange it so we didn't have to wait long in between games, even though they were busy. It's a lovely, family-run venue and we will certainly be back to play the games we couldn't fit in this time.

Fun, physicality and a lovely bunch of quirky puzzles await you on this castaway island and the EO team evidently enjoy thinking of inventive ways to create new experiences within their escape rooms. The flow of puzzles was top-notch and there were plenty of original elements that kept us on our toes. Our GM, Lily, was a delight and ran the game with just the right balance of being available for clues but not nudging when not needed. A great room in a venue that's full of great rooms.

To put it in a (nut)shell, this is an absolutely cracking game that takes eggs-ellent puzzle design, a whole clutch of truly eggs-eptional egg-based puns and a very cute little bunny rabbit, mixes them together into one delicious omelette of puzzle-solving fun and delivers that mad scramble of delight that one only gets from a proper padlocky puzzle-fest (and yes, every single egg pun is entirely intentional).

This is not an Easter-themed game, although it absolutely could be played as one if that's what you fancy; this is an adorable, frantic fever-dream that has been created with an immense amount of care by Kelly and the team at EO and that we simply didn't want to end.

The split-start is a super way to begin and - although it doesn't have much to do with eggs, bunnies or a delightful spring garden - it really doesn't matter. The puzzles are plentiful and, as with the best split-starts, communication is key. Once into the garden, our main quest was to rescue Edgar the bunny but our side quest had us cracking open a plethora of padlocks to collect a clutch of eggs.

Fancy tech and movie-standard sets are great and all but we're the type of enthusiasts who want to be faced with a giant wall of padlocks. Chatting to Kelly - one of the owners - after the game, it became very clear that we share that preference: that sweet *clunk* of a padlock as you get the right code... the cheeky thrill of a cipher and letter lock combination... the delight when the directional padlock opens first time and there's no double-clicking for you as you sail on through to the next puzzle... That, for us, makes an enjoyable escape room. If we find ourselves actively stopping each other in a room to remark on just how much fun we're having then we know we're onto a winner.

Ratings and reviews are so subjective but if it's fun you're after, them embrace the madness and go and rescue poor Edgar!

What a privilege to be invited to the Nakatomi Plaza New Year's Eve party: we had an absolute hoot!

The hosting here is the clear winner and it is supreme. Our GM was brilliant and he really made the game next-level fun. The puzzles were decent and more plentiful than we'd expected and - coupled with a lot of fun role-playing, a very inventive use of space and nods to a certain 80's action movie - the whole experience was certainly deserving of five stars.

While there are some 'threatening' moments during the game, due to the storyline, it was all done with good humour and a light-hearted approach.

This was one of our all-time favourites for pure enjoyment. It's a must-play.

Ratings for rooms are so objective and we know that this wouldn't be top on some lists but we absolutely adored this game!

It's a theme rarely seen but that fits beautifully as a storyline for an escape room. As warriors of Agamemmnon, our challenge was to break into Troy under cover of darkness and open the gates of Troy for the Greek army. To be quite honest, this was an absolute dream come true for us, as self-confessed history geeks.

The puzzles were on the traditional side, with beautiful theming, the odd modern padlock hidden way (which didn't bother us) and a hefty dose of logic woven into everything. The set is as epic as one would hope with this storyline and the immersion begins right away.

There is ye olde WC in this one, plus a little trunk for bags so all very convenient.

Fans of the more role-play led games might not love it as much but, for our preferences for pretty, puzzle-heavy games in historical settings, this game really hit the sweet spot.

It's an incredible world in here, albeit slightly terrifying at times, and I'm not entirely sure I understand exactly what happened in there. Is it an escape room? Well... an escape experience perhaps and that is exactly what we were expecting after reading all of the reviews.

The set is incredible and I defy anybody not to be impressed by the sheer scale and attention to detail. The interactions with the GM in role were fantastic and, again, the immersion created by our GM (who, at the end of the game, turned out to be the loveliest, friendliest man) was excellent. Immersion is the name of the game here, as it is basically an RPG; there aren't many puzzles (which is a shame, as that is always our most prized aspect of a game) and the signposting isn't always clear, so we did find ourselves relying on our GM, who was fortunately very good a giving us nudges when we needed.

Go expecting to be a little unnerved, to play an RPG in an incredible set and to forget about the outside world for a bit and you'll have a great time. Personally, we're suckers for a good old padlock and code so this wasn't our usual kind of game but we absolutely appreciate the gameplay and the immersion.

There is no doubt that this game is a top game, with a nice storyline and a very clever combination of tech and personalisation that is something I've never seen in an escape room before; we had a great time, we enjoyed the process and we appreciated the fine craftsmanship of the entire experience. Saying this, however, we didn't quite gel with the flow of the gameplay at times but we think that might be down to personal style - we love a puzzlefest and that's not what The Brewery is. What it is, however, is really delightful, very immersive and beautifully done, with very friendly staff and the chance to taste the fruits of your efforts at the end. Certainly a must-play.

In all honesty, it is difficult to find the superlatives for how immersive and how incredibly clever this game is.

Epic is not a word I would oft use to describe an escape room but this one just... is. The wow moments keep on coming and the puzzles are woven beautifully into the world of the game.

Some advice, however: don't wear nice clothes, bring cash if you're paying off the balance at the room and - to echo the sentiments of another reviewer on here - ensure you go to the toilet before arriving at the game. Other than those sage pieces of advice, it is better that you know as little as possible before going in; it is an absolute must-play. Superb.

Probably the most traditional of the rooms here at Pirate Escape, this has arguably the best gameplay. There's a lovely mix of puzzles, a very clear theme that is adhered to throughout and mostly very logical puzzles. As a room for a family, this would be a real winner but we had great time as a couple of enthusiasts nevertheless. 

Very friendly hosts and a no stress, family-run atmosphere, which is just how we like it.

While a space theme wouldn't be our first choice of theme, this super level of challenge definitely would; tricky, we would imagine, for beginners due to the volume of puzzles and to the tricky split start, this really got us scratching our heads at times.

The split start is a decent chunk of the game as opposed to a gimmick at the beginning and there's a bit of work to be done before you can communicate effectively enough to rejoin each other in the main area of gameplay. There was another decent chunk of puzzles - with one logic puzzle being particularly good - before the game finale, which was another lovely physical challenge. 

Overall, it's a lovely game with plenty going on.

A WW2 room is always a winner with us but this particular one delivered - after about 270 rooms and countless occasions when we've been called upon to save Britain from an incoming Nazi invasion - a completely new element! It's a cracking room that provides a bumper crop of puzzles and a tense atmosphere, while delivering on the fun and the Blitz spirit.

We particularly enjoyed the physical elements of the game and felt that the use of space reflected a genuine desire to provide something different.

As cat-people, we were always going to love this game but even without the feline theme, this would still be a purr-fect little serving of delicious escapism treats.

Bob Bing - F.I.S.H. agent - has left some clues out and, conveniently, his own private submarine, which is rather lucky because we needed all of these things in order to defeat the mighty Monty Mouse. Everything in this game is very carefully designed, including the decor. It is such a beautifully-made game with not a whiff of a tired-looking laminated sheet or a worn carpet that's seen better days; everything in here is clean, bright, smart and purposeful with a clever eye for cute cat puns.

The best thing about this room  is undoubtedly how logically the puzzles flow together. The puzzles are inventive and make perfect sense and the cohesion of the room is a real standout.

Now this one is an absolute winner! It's not an escape room in the sense that escaping isn't necessary and it's a collect-what-you-can situation but it does have all of the trappings and fun of an escape room and a puzzle-fest escape room at that. This room is - for us - proof of two truths: that family-run, independent escape rooms really do beat franchises hands-down and that the best escape rooms have excellent puzzles at their heart.

If you love padlocks, codes, running around frantically and cool little quirky things that you probably won't have seen before, this is an absolute choice. We used the entire hour to win enough stars to top the leaderboard, but we went right down to the last few seconds... What a superb way to spend 60 minutes!

There is something so delightful about an Alice in Wonderland escape room that it is tricky to think of one we've done and mot enjoyed but the real boon for this room is the main set, which exudes creativity and provides a lovely escaping experience.

It's not often we get the chance to be locked inside a shipping container so it was great to do something a little different. Some inventive physical elements to this room were the real standout for us but that's not to say that the rest of the puzzles weren't both solid and enjoyable; with a focus well away from the decor, the puzzles needed some substance behind them and this room delivers that.

Looking for a gentle, historical game for two, we booked this through Sherlocked and - as it turns out - felt like we uncovered quite the gem.
We've done quite a few outdoor games that follow a trail of clues round the city and most of them involve a smartphone: they are always fun and give us an insight into a new city, which is the primary appeal. For Mystery City, however, you can do away with the phone and just immerse yourself in the history of somewhere for an hour or two.
We picked up a bag at the HQ (from a delightful GM who spoke excellent English and who explained our quest to us); the bag was full of kitsch vintage tins (as befitting our WW2 themed quest) that were padlocked and the tins were accompanied with a journal to help us on our way.
The quest required us to use a wide variety of landmarks around the old Jewish quarter, coupled with the absolutely lovely resources and clues in our bag. Not only did we get to explore a wonderful part of Amsterdam that we had not seen before but everything in our quest was absolutely rooted in real local history. The puzzles were gorgeous and multi-layered at times but were never off-kilter or ambiguous. 
This is just what a city trail/outdoor escape quest should look like: made with care, rooted in history and full of delightful puzzles... And we even got a metal pin at the end as our reward for solving the mystery.

Even now, after a drink, a game of pool in the ultra-funky lobby area of Mama Bazooka, a video replay of our game highlights (do I really look/sound like that?!), the drive back to our campsite and a full-on debrief with the other half of the team, I'm still a bit stumped as to what I was just a part of.We got out in time... but were we successful? Did I do puzzles? Did I run around like a headless chicken? Did we even just do an escape room?! The Dome defies convention, logic and, at times, time and space. Now that I look back on it, I can see the links, the threads of thought, the flow of the gameplay but in the game, I was a bewildered rabbit in the glaring headlights of The Dome, subject only to the whims of Mama Bazooka and the relentlessly bonkers imagination of whoever dreamed up the whole concept.
It's genius, really, and truly is one of those 'just go and play it' games where you need to embrace the lunacy and throw yourself into every moment because - as with anything truly enjoyable - it will be over before you know it and you'll be wishing you could go back to the beginning to play it again.

A visit to Escape Quest is a scrumptious sweet treat in itself but Titterton's Toffee is a sumptuous, delicious delight and we just wanted more! We knew it would be a quality offering and we expected handmade puzzles with padlocks-a-plenty but the reality of having an hour in escape room heaven absolutely lived up to all of our expectations.
Elaine and Mike design puzzles that just make sense. Sometimes straightforward, sometimes multi-layered but always thought through with care and a nod to the history of Chapelgate.The decor is in-keeping with the era and this new Chapelgate challenge allows time travellers into new places and to see the changes that have taken place over time. As always, the flow of the gameplay is superb and success is measured on the basis of 'how many' rather than 'escape or not', which makes it fun and accessible for all levels of escapers.It is yet another winner for Escape Quest and if there were royal warrants available for escape rooms (as well as toffee-makers) then this would surely get the royal seal of approval.

I feel like I lived several lives between the beginning of this room and the end of it, not only because it's a 90 minute epic but because it's incredibly intense, extremely physical and the set just keeps... on.... going. The keyword here is immersion; our GM/combat leader, Fran, did a fantastic job of staying in role and this was even more impressive when you take into account that he did so in English.
The design is the thing and this is an incredibly impressive element to this game. The puzzles are good and fit in well with the immersion but they do come second to living the story of the room, which is to release Private Perconte - of Easy Company, 101st Airbourne.
Overall it's a super experience and there were times when we genuinely felt panicked. It's not a puzzle-fest kind of room and there is a big role-playing element. It's an immersive experience that involves solving puzzles rather than a puzzle-fest but it works well.

On a lovely sunny day, doing an escape room outside was an absolute joy. Yes, it is designed for families with children; yes, it is on the straightforward side; and yes, it's a little more physical than cerebral, but what it lacks in serious challenge, it makes up for in sheer fun and novelty. Definitely one for the young and young-at-heart so, enthusiasts, take as small a team as possible and just enjoy a nice time in the Yorkshire sunshine!

Like most enthusiasts, we've had a keen eye peeled for when Marv the Monkey would be on the hunt for the golden banana and we leapt on the chance to get funky with the monkey as soon as we could get booked in.
There aren't enough superlatives to convey how much fun we had in here. The quest for the golden banana is a 'tail' of physical skill, beautifully layered puzzles, the sights, sounds and smells of the big top and an overarching penchant for humour that will have the whole family rolling in the aisles.

The puzzles that there are are absolutely beautiful and the game flows (no pun intended) really well. It's a physical game - which is also one of its USPs - so if mobility is an issue, this could be quite tricky.

His storytelling was superb and it felt incredibly immersive from the get-go. The set design is absolutely fantastic and the use of tech is extremely impressive. The puzzles were really enjoyable and the final section.... Wow! 
This game is a lot of fun and, along with the insanely good build, really ranks up there in terms of WW2 rooms that we've done.

Just like Pirelli's Miracle Elixir, this'll do the trick (Sir). An immaculate set up, this is such a superb interpretation of the classic Sweeney Todd story. The puzzles are a delight; the flow of the gameplay is never stilted; and the set is atmospheric and crafted with care. In short, it has all the ingredients (*sigh) for a rather tasty escape room.
