    I’m super unsure how good I liked this game. Having heard of it for years, and finally played it…it was fine. I loved the setting, I loved the GM, I loved a couple of the puzzles, and I loved a couple of the things that happened. Other than that, it was a fine room. A very traditional room, with ok to good puzzles. Nothing amazing, and I am unsure if I would reccomend it.

    A very fun room! Great use of space, and many fun puzzles. Not my favorite at CQ, but can reccomend all their rooms as the top tier in London.

    A great fun classic escape room. I love the fact that they have changed it up to make it more modern. This is ClueQuests oldest room, but it is still a lot of fun! Highly reccomed all rooms here!

    There is a lot to like here. The story, the actors (not in the room), and the fact that you are in a «moving» metro cart. The puzzles are fun, the flow is good, and it feels unique. The GM was the worst part. He was nice, but he gave us hints (the solution) before we even got to try out some of the puzzles. When confronted with it after the game, he was very defensive, and said he always did that because someone hadn’t understood that puzzle many times. Not a good way of doing it, and it left us with a little bit of a sour taste in our mouths.

    As everyone says, this is one of the best rooms we have played. It is more an interactive experience than a pure escape room, but as long as you are ok with a non puzzle heavy room, you’ll probably love this. Everything works, and it is a fantastic eperience. One puzzle is extra hard with 2 people, but we luckily didn’t spend too much time on it. Reccomend everyone to play this!

    What to say. After playing Going Underground and having a fantastic time, we went to play all three games at Crime Runners other location. A focus on story telling is good and all, but I have never lost a 60 minutes escape room in 35 minutes before. I’m also pretty sure I paid for 60 minutes, so that is another annoyance. For some absurd, weird, bad reason, the owners of this place has the worst rule I have ever seen in a room: When you reach the last puzzle, the timer suddenly goes down to 5 minutes. That means that if that one puzzle is the one you get stuck on, then good luck. We lost the first room, and beat the other two, because the last puzzle was made easier, SINCE people where losing the first one so much. It makes sense to have this idea, but to not see it being the worst idea ever after years of running your business is mind boggling to me. The GM even said around 50% of all players lost the rooms, and many because of this rule. We were not pleased after the first game, and had to vent to the GM a bit to be able to enjoy the other two rooms. All in all, these three rooms are fine, and I would have reccomended them, if it hadn’t been for the horrible way they end their games. If you can look past that, then you’ll find three classic escape rooms, with the third one being the one I’d reccomend.

    This was a fantastic game! I loved every minute, from start to end. For two people, there was so, so many puzzles to solve, and we went from puzzle to puzzle in a pretty fast pace to be able to get everything done. A big game with fun, unique puzzles! Also, the owner was fantastic! He showed up just because we were going to play, and asked for feedback after we played, even asked what we didn’t like, which is a class act! Highly reccomend this one for everyone!
