BREAKIN ESCAPE ROOMS – Heist Plan

I was casually on the escape room Facebook group when I noticed a fellow enthusiast would be visiting London from Denmark, and was looking for room recommendations. Knowing Breakin' Escape had offered me a free room, I asked Henrik if he and his girlfriend (the wonderful Freja) would like to do it with me. They … Continue reading BREAKIN ESCAPE ROOMS – Heist Plan →

BREAKOUT MANCHESTER – Madchester

I often travel for work, although I don't tend to travel too far. However, when I was handed a meeting in Manchester I knew I wanted to fit in an escape room. I've heard good things about the Manchester Escape Room scene. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to get to the fabled Lucardo this time, but … Continue reading BREAKOUT MANCHESTER – Madchester →

SECRET STUDIO

This is one of those escape rooms which I've heard pop up quite often when discussing London escape rooms. However I've avoided it as I'm a bit of a wimp when it comes to creepy atmospheres and jump scares... Alas, a friend decided it would be the perfect venue for his birthday (a combination of … Continue reading SECRET STUDIO →

PUZZLE CARDS

Taking a little break from the norm to review something that's not an escape room! Jon contacted me through this site to ask me whether I'd be interested in reviewing some birthday cards he has created, which act as pseudo escape rooms. I, of course, said I'd love to, and a few days later I … Continue reading PUZZLE CARDS →

ENIGMA QUESTS – School of witchcraft and wizardry

I believe this is one of the most popular 'Harry Potter' escape rooms in London, to the extent that, for as long as I've known about it, this room is booked months in advance. I actually booked this in July to play for my birthday in December. This sort of hype can be both a … Continue reading ENIGMA QUESTS – School of witchcraft and wizardry →

THE PANIC ROOM – Enigma and general review

After hearing so many good things about 'The Panic Room' we finally made the pilgrimage there to complete one of their "Enthusiasts' packages" (a genius business move on their behalf). After quite a few emails back and forth with the wonderful owner Alex we finally came up with our list of 5 for the day. … Continue reading THE PANIC ROOM – Enigma and general review →

THE PANIC ROOM – Ten fathoms deep, Loop

THE PANIC ROOM – Old Father Time, Wizard of Oz

ESCAPE LONDON – Witchcraft & Wizardry

Having had a good experience with this company in the past, I decided to book this Witchcraft and Wizardry room for my team of newbie, Harry Potter loving friends. We also did the School of Witchcraft at London Escaped, but this room was far superior. We actually got on the leaderboard for this, which is … Continue reading ESCAPE LONDON – Witchcraft & Wizardry →

CARDIFF EXITUS – Plague

Having completed most of the rooms in Cardiff by this point (barring those companies we refuse to return too), we were very excited to see a new company open, perfectly situated on the high street nearby 2/3 other companies. As an independent company, rather than a franchise, we knew it could be hit and miss. … Continue reading CARDIFF EXITUS – Plague →
