Recently played Jigsaw Killer and Harry Potter here and our experience was very much below what we would expect for the price we paid... Jigsaw Killer - tiniest room I have ever been in, felt like they just wanted more rooms to churn over revenue....More

Couldn't get the idea at all.

They advertise that if you are logical, you will easily be able to do the Escape room. We chose the Mad Hatter and my husband 68 and my mother 84 are both very logical and problem solving people. I'm not so I was glad to...More

Great fun for all the ages

Enjoyed the madd hatter room with some friends. The puzzles were really interesting and incorporated elaborate problem solving. All round it was a great time, the staff were very nice and helpful, it is reasonablely priced and worth checking out.
