Cryptic Escape Rooms

   Firstly the comments of Urine - it's not urine, it's damp. It's a stone house built 150 years ago. It's a natural occurance in a cold stone house. We came here in November for our daughter's birthday. We've also done a similar escape room in Manchester at a bigger, better funded experience so we had something to compare it to. The host was great, clearly involved in the operation and made us feel very welcomed. He interacted all the way through the game with us. The set up is less well funded than a bigger outfit but that's made up for with the enjoyment we had. The puzzles are good, tested us to the limits, and are well thought out. You get what you pay for as they say, and for us it was a great experience.

   We had a great time. The games master was funny and a bit cheesy without going too far! The room itself was great with a few different areas of puzzles to solve. Well thought out and challenging but not too complex or frustrating, would highly recommend!

   The escape room experience its self was good, my children really enjoyed solving the puzzles although I think there were too many padlocks. I feel the budget for the construction of the rooms was less than £20, It could do with a good clean and someone with half decent D.I.Y skills to make it more refined and not look thrown together.

   Just returned from our first escape room. Had a fantastic time, throughly enjoyed by all. We entered the upside-down room (Stranger Things) the clues and puzzles were really good. Dylan our games master was excellent adding to the whole experience Thank You

   Our kids first escape room ages 8 to 40. Was very exciting and challenging. The room was pretty basic but enjoyed all the same and the host was great. Would definitely come again

   Really lovely staff member but the escape room was nothing special. Thank you to the staff for accomodating two rooms at the same time but it would be nice to know this before as some of us had to wait an hour. The strangers things escape room was a good laugh but there were too many locks. I also didn't like the throw off clues - it seemed like a mess. I'm not saying it should be easy but too many throw off clues is ridiculous! Music would have been nice. Photo session would be good too. The place was very cold although we saw two can heaters being delivered at the time. Groupon voucher was great value and we had fun. Paying anything more for this would be a mistake.

   Really nice guy that ran the escape room but not really what I expected. I drove past it as it just looked like a terraced house which it is. The clues for the the game are clever and fun to solve but in comparison to other escape rooms it doesn't measure up. What would have made the experience better would be if the place was clean. The place is absolutely filthy and smelled like urine. The Stranger things themed tune played on a loop which was cool but maybe if the whole soundtrack was incorporated it would be better. On the whole, a low-budget escape room that could be a lot better. I wouldn't go again but we made the most of it and had fun while we were there.
