We did both the Pit and the Pirates rooms in one afternoon and were hugely impressed by the production values of the staging, puzzles and hosting in both.

In particular, the warmth and humour of the Escapement team brought an enormous amount of fun and immersion to both rooms - their interaction and telling of the backstory was entertaining but not at all cringeworthy like many rooms elsewhere.

Fantastic experience with Gary today playing both The Pit and Pirates of Polaris. We have played several escape rooms and these rooms had puzzles and extra bits that we have never seen before. Gary was a fantastic games master as well. Thank you for a fantastic experience.

The Pit was my first ever escape room, and I wasn't disappointed!! Ashley was a real diamond who talked us through the experience and answered any questions we had (and gave lots of reassurance!) Was nice to get performance feedback after completion, will definitely go back and try the other rooms!! Two of us completely it in 77 minutes 😁

We did our first ever escape room here on Saturday and Matt was our guide. At first was a little nervous it might be too complicated but it amazing fun! Matt was so funny and gave us some subtle help to guide us through, such a well thought out puzzle and the time flew by, thoroughly enjoyed our first escape room!!
