   Great escape room. We did the Overthrone rooms with the whole family (10 of us in 2 teams of 5), ranging from 9 years old to 80. It was perfect for all ages! The staff were all very welcoming and helpful. Victoria led our session and she was super friendly and explained everything clearly. We would definitely recommend this place.

   This was such a fun date night activity! We did the escape room Area 51 and it was challenging and entertaining, kept us on our toes and the hour flew by! Would definitely recommend this for couples or group of friends who love a game or are puzzle minded!! Will be coming back to do more rooms in the new year. The staff were really friendly too, and special thanks to the lovely Amy who was game master during our visit!

   We've just done the Wizards and Witchcraft room at the Horsefair st venue. The room was incredibly well deaigned with a good variety of puzzles. Definitely worth a visit if you're a Harry Potter fan. We had Victoria as a game master and she was really lovely and stepped in to help us when we found ourselves in a bit of a pickle. Overall, an amazing 5 star experience!

   We visited Escape Leicester as a group of four on a Saturday afternoon and we booked our session in advance. Even though I have never seen much advertising for it from the outside in Leicester, it was very easy to find when we arrived. We originally discovered it online and the booking process was simple and clear, which made the whole experience smooth from the start. When we arrived, the team were welcoming and professional. There were people coming in and out for different games which showed that the venue is clearly popular and well used. They have a wide range of rooms available and it was good to see that the atmosphere in the reception area was lively with groups starting and finishing different experiences. We played The Cabin and although we felt confident going in as a group of four, we found it more challenging than we expected. We needed to ask for clues more often than we hoped which can take away a little of the sense of achievement. Even so, the clues were given promptly and the support from the team helped us keep the momentum going. The room itself was well designed and the experience felt immersive, with a good mix of puzzles to keep us engaged. Another positive point is that they provide lockers so you can put your belongings away safely before the game starts. It is a small detail but it makes the visit much more comfortable and organised. Overall, it was a fun and enjoyable activity with a good standard of room design and a friendly team. It is definitely worth a visit whether you are new to escape rooms or have done a few before, and it adds something different to do in Leicester.

   My team of three recently tackled the Echoes of Madness escape room at Escape Leicester, and it was an absolutely phenomenal experience! Rated 5/5 for difficulty, this room delivered a dark, spine-chilling atmosphere packed with suspense and immersion. The puzzles were brilliantly crafted, seamlessly weaving into the gripping storyline. From intricate jigsaw-style challenges to mind-bending cryptic ciphers, every element was thoughtfully designed and perfectly aligned with the theme.Our game master, Klaudia, was exceptional. She explained everything clearly, provided top-notch service, and was happy to answer our questions before and after the escape. Her enthusiasm and professionalism elevated the experience, and we’d love to have her as our game master again! Every staff member we encountered was equally welcoming, passionate, and dedicated to making our visit unforgettable.Escape Leicester’s two locations offer a variety of rooms, and with a new one on the way, they’re clearly committed to keeping things fresh and exciting. The facility is well-equipped, with a fridge of soft drinks, complimentary water, and secure lockers for valuables. Whether you’re an individual, couple, or group, this is a must-visit for anyone craving an immersive, heart-pounding adventure.We had an incredible time and can’t wait to return to conquer more rooms. The entire Escape Leicester team should be proud of creating such a thrilling and memorable experience. Highly recommend! Regards, team The rock bottom crew.

   First time doing an escape room, and my husband & I had an absolute blast! I purchased a gift voucher as a Christmas surprise and the woman at reception was super friendly and helpful. Booking the room was easy. Upon arrival, staff were friendly , enthusiastic and ready to get us started. Our Games Master, Maxwell, took us through what to expect, rules and safety, etc. He was personable and you can tell he loves his job. I knew I’d have fun doing an escape room, but I had more fun than I even imagined! Room was so detailed, full of clues and puzzles, hints when we were struggling. Plenty of a-ha! moments from the both of us. A definite thrill and rush if excitement. 10/10 would recommend. We can’t wait to try the other rooms available.

   Went with my wife as our first time doing an escape room and thoroughly enjoyed it from start to finish. We did the 'Endless Story' room which provided a good range of challenges and puzzles. Girts, our host, was great and provided hints along the way via Walkie Talkie (only if needed) to help keep our progress more or less on track - although we did slightly go over the hour to finish it. Would highly recommend to anyone who's not tried this before and who loves puzzles, or any more experienced Escape roomers out there (who will no doubt finish it far quicker than we did). Can't wait for the next one. Will definitely visit again.

   Brilliant place. The room we went into was put together really well with a high standard finish. Lots of interesting puzzles to solve all of different variety, with unexpected events really made it so much fun. The team who work there are also super enthusiastic and friendly. Can't wait to return!

   We had a brilliant time at Escape Leicester and so glad we chose this venue! All the staff were friendly and welcoming, especially Agata, our Games Master, who was really patient in answering all our questions. We had chosen Overthrown and found it challenging, but loved every minute of it once we got going. We managed to complete it - with a helping hand in the right direction when we needed it. Thanks to Agata and all the staff for making our visit a fun one! Also, thank you for my birthday card, which was such a thoughtful touch. Would definitely recommend.

   We got this as a Christmas present and for a family of 6 it was amazing local family fun for an evening. So much so we were all buzzing. The room was really well put together and was fun for the whole family for all ages. A really good family night out. Staff wise the gentleman who looked after us made the whole experience extra worth while and more than added to the night. Definitely going to come back. Well worth it.
