This room was fantastic and a great surprise - not much I can fault at all! Hosting was superb, the attention to detail in the room itself was great with superb theming, and there was a lot of puzzles to do with great variety to each. Wasn’t expecting to like this one as much as I did! Definitely among my favourites!

Nothing too much to write home about, but there are worse ways to spend a few hours. I like that this wasn’t time pressured either so you can wander round the beautiful surroundings of Broadstairs. Nice materials to use and good use of tech as well. Puzzles are a little easy however. Loses points for the ludicrous price but it is fixed and doesn’t scale with the number of players at least.

This room is a real disappointment, which is suprising given the usual quality of Escapement. The room itself is tiny (and feels weirdly claustrophobic), the puzzles are quite odd and feel a bit obtuse at times - there’s no satisfaction when solving them. I was just sort of thinking ‘but why?’ the whole way through. The finale is rubbish as well and there’s not really enough to do. A very forgettable experience which is a shame! Also not sure what the name of this room is??? Project Exodus or Egyptian Tomb? Pick one I guess!

Probably one of the best themed games we’ve played - the attention to detail is stunning and there are some great wow moments in this one. A few leaps in logic at times and yet another instruction booklet (we don’t like these) but still really really good!

I have to start by saying I think this one is a little bit overhyped (it's impossible to ignore the off the charts attention and praise this room receives - I was expecting the floor to levitate or something) so if you're experienced with a fair number of rooms under your belt already, maybe temper your expectations a little bit (I wish I had..., the street/alley/avenue set is something that we have seen 3-4 times already now, I was hoping for something unique (although the rotations may provide that in the future)), but that said this is still a 5 star experience, it just didn't blow my mind like I was hoping it would! For me I actually think that for all the talk about the set, the story and the immersion, there's not enough praise of the puzzles themselves, and for what it's worth, for me as a whole package they are some of the best we have done in terms of the underlying logic and reasoning behind them. They really give you that sense of AHA! when you figure them out, and that is exactly what a good puzzle should do - not frustrate with leaps in logic but be just hard enough to make you work for the solution, and then wonder what took you so long! There were lots of 2-3 step thinking required which we found really enjoyable. I liked trying to get as many the crystals as you could as well (combined with the knowledge that you only needed 8 to get out, any additional were just stretch goals), and even though we were pretty short (it's nigh on impossible to get them all in a 2, I think you need 4 minimum, there's just too much to get through) it was great of the host to take us through those that we didn't get. If you're local however, I would recommend just playing again so you can do them all in two goes! Definitely looking forward to coming back and doing the other rotations!

Really good room - however I don't think it's well suited to bigger groups as there are a few spaces and sections that are a bit small and not suitable for more than 2 people to be in at a time. I might have a better opinion of this if I did it in a smaller group therefore but the puzzles were still good and the theme was fun. I found the set a little rough and ready in parts, but it did the job well enough. Can't go wrong with this one!

Unfortunately this was one that I was fine with while playing, but when I reflected on it later, I liked it less and less. It's not really a room for two people as there's too much to do (given the gimmick that I won't spoil), and there were a couple of puzzles that were infuriating to solve. It's also very tired-looking. Most of it seems to have been put together on a budget - and the theming/immersiveness effort is serviceable but not up the standard of some of the better rooms we've done. It's quite noticeable as you move through how things have just been cobbled together. There shouldn't be multiple instances of electrical wires clearly visible inside flaps where we need to pick up objects for example. Good on the whole but could probably do with a spruce up!

I loved most things about this - the setting, props and tech for example. However - there's just not enough to do! I don't think the puzzles themselves were that strong, although decent. I was confused when we escaped in under 40 minutes but seems like that's actually on the slow end! I'm also not a fan of lots and lots of locks that you don't interact with - I guess it's hard to cover these up given the props involved, but it takes away from the immersion for me.

The highlight of this is without doubt the room itself - the settings and the props are fantastic and really add to the experience! Another highlight was the hosting from Imogen - we've had a few indifferent hosts recently so it was great to get a good one! Good puzzles, with some good variety in there as well, and a clever and immersive clue system too. Very strong all round!

This was fantastic - a room where the difficulty of the puzzles is just right given the amount of stuff there is to do, but there’s still really not much time to waste! We found it perfectly balanced in that regard, and the originality in here was superb (especially in the second half). The puzzles link very well with the theme and it was a blast from start to finish.Loved it and can’t find any faults!

The highlights of this are definitely the set, immersiveness and theming of the puzzles. However, we found it a bit on the easy side (and some puzzles were not that original), and we were unimpressed that one of the puzzles was not working so we unknowingly bypassed it completely (which apparently was the intention) which left us confused on finishing, and our GM tried to hide it (the fact that it was broken) from us even when we asked about it… I found that part really disappointing and it soured my feelings on this at the end. It’s still decent, but Curioser and Curiouser is much more worth the trip!

I think this is one of the harder rooms out there (especially for 2) and maybe a little bit too hard at points. The logic makes sense, but I feel like for some things your mind wouldn’t go there without a clue, but when you do get one it seems obvious! However that aside, this is a really good room with awesome theming and attention to detail, and not a padlock in sight! Very tactile with many interactive elements, and all worked seamlessly. Very thematic tasks as well if you are paying attention! Made us feel a bit thick coming out with all the things we missed but it gave us some things to learn from. Really good fun!

This was a fun room with great theming and quite scary! I wouldn't be too put off by the scares in this one though - we were anticipating them a bit too much and it hampered our focus on solving the puzzles. There is no need to do that! I was a bit annoyed at the final puzzle - we had done everything to get out except the last bit, and I didn't think it was that obvious what needed to be done, and our GM could have helped us out a bit more given the limited time we had left, but didn't which I found frustrating and soured the experience for me a bit. All in all though, an enjoyable room with good theming, puzzles (and sound design!) which is well worth a go!

I really enjoyed this one - the puzzles are excellent and the tech used worked seamlessly.

I also think that the theming works really well and it’s a really good use of a small space without ever feeling too cramped. 

Didn’t quite have the wow factor to get top marks (maybe some more ambience/music would do that?) and one of the puzzles was a little misleading (they took on our feedback so may be changed in future) but it’s nearly there. Great room - fully recommend!

This was a fun one, and lots to do which is always enjoyable - had some tech issues but nothing serious (still annoying however). 

For us it was a bit too similar to Loot the Lanes in Brighton which meant that the set up was sort of familiar, and unfortunately has less space to move around in here. 

However the theming is top notch and the puzzles were good - not immediately obvious what to do but then you have a great aha monent when things start to click in your head. 

Great fun, and certainly Christmas themed!

This was a good, but unfortunately not great room for me. It’s hard to talk about the things I didn’t like without giving too much away, but probably a combination of the story, first puzzle and space used. Two puzzles/object finding tasks are also essentially the same which threw me a bit. 

And I will bang this drum until I’ve played my last room - put some music/ambience in! It’s silent in there and you can hear people outside easily which really takes you out of the immersion…

Some good puzzles in here and certainly lots to do for two (maybe too much realistically), but I came out of this one feeling a bit underwhelmed after all the good things I had read about it.

Really enjoyable room - and surprisingly scary! Some great jump scares in here (although I'm not sure how much was added for Halloween)!

I thought this was actually quite hard, hence the minimum three players. Puzzles were varied and required different thought processes, and fit the theme of the room well. Story was interesting too, and the host set the scene really well for us. 

Minor niggles was one of the first puzzles not being particularly clear in terms of what to do, and an annoying red herring (although is quite funny when revealed). A really good experience!

This was good fun - not really an escape room but an interactive trail-following adventure where you meet different characters along the way. I find these experiences difficult to get immersed in, and a part of me gets stressed that I won't see all the trails and find all the secrets in the town. However, if you can get past that (which I eventually did), there's fun to be had here from the little pieces of info that you do find around the (quite big) area. Tech is used pretty well, and was impressed with the food, although there was a lack of variety in sweet options (summer might be better). My main issue is with the trails - they are not really puzzles. More, go to A and speak to B, what did B say?, then go look at C, what is written on C, etc. It's not particularly difficult to solve so you are more just wandering back and forth the same bit you've been up and down 10 times already, then entering the obvious into your phone. I think it's fine and I can see why they've set it up like that, but I was expecting a bit more. There are worse ways to spend 4 hours though, and I think it's worth doing once - set design is immaculate and actors are great so worth it for those alone. Not enough here to encourage repeat visits for me however (how is it going to be that different from time to time?).

This might just be one of my favourite rooms ever. To think we nearly didn't do this one as we were already doing Atlantis!

The first part is pretty normal stuff, with good theming and enjoyable (if unspectacular) puzzles. But it's the finale where this room really comes into it's own. I don't want to give anything away but I have not seen anything close to this in an escape room before. It's an incredible piece of design and creativity, it fits the narrative really well, and it's really exciting! Something that I am always a bit advocate for is use of sound and music to create atmosphere - and the sound design is brilliant here. 

I have some minor niggles but can't really mention without going into spoilers. Even so, it's an incredibly unique experience that you won't forget in a hurry!

Unfortunately for me, this was a bit of a victim of the hype. It's a good room, don't get me wrong, but I actually think the other room at Broadstairs is better than this one!

This is a very physical room which was quite different, albeit it can feel a bit cramped if you have long legs like me! The space is quite small at times too and it's hard to get fully immersed when you can hear people entering reception for the other room...  

The design of the puzzles is good, but apart from one standout one, I don't think the rest is that unique - they are a variation of things I've seen before (especially at Escapement). 

Another let down is the videos... they are way too long and inauthentic, and really took me out of the experience. 

Gamesmaster and debrief were great though, so can't fault that aspect. 

All in all, the sets are great, puzzles are good, but it didn't rank that high for me as there are a few niggles I couldn't get past due to my high expectations. My partner really enjoyed it so maybe it's just me!

This was a really good follow up to The Cabin, even if it didn't quite reach the heights of that room.

I think the puzzles are great in this one, probably better in some respects than The Cabin's and certainly lots more here to do, hence why we only just made it out!

The theming is great but not as striking as The Cabin, and I enjoyed the ending quite a lot, except from the final puzzle which is certainly not as memorable as The Cabin's!

I note that it's probably unfair to compare this to The Cabin, and that I've referred to it 5 times now... Therefore I will say that this a fantastic room when judged on it's own accord, with some great puzzles and an engaging and immersive narrative.

I think this one was a victim of its hype for us, but its still a really good room. Hosting is great, and the set is really well done. It's not as spectacular as some more modern rooms, but it captures the feel of the Lanes really well, and is definitely original!

Puzzles are also a highpoint, and they are quite varied too. Certainly lots to do! If you want to do this as a 2 player team though it's more than doable - you'll have to move relatively quickly however to compensate. 

Unfortunately it wasn't a perfect experience as we had some tech issues which caused us to lose a fair chunk of time (I think it's due to how the puzzle works/operates without giving you a reset option, our host should have picked this up really though), and there's one puzzle near the end that needs some TLC, or they'll have a visit from health and safety soon! 

Admittedly these are just minor niggles but they detracted from the overall experience unfortunately.
