Fun game. Very practical rather than lots of mental puzzles. I like that. I prefer more physical games. Very much enjoyed the experience. The hints we needed were delivered well and in good time. Not to early.

Gameplay

Very practical room. Not many riddles, number puzzles etc. very much a ‘what’s right in front of you’ room.

Atmosphere

Interaction from the game master during the game which is always fun. Whole game was well designed

A prison escape is a well worn Escape Room trope and is probably familiar if you are reading this. This is one of the better versions with solid scenery and elements of theatricality that elevate it from the typical style of room. Progress is relatively linear in nature but you must read and remember the rules otherwise you could have a very different experience! You start off in your cell and must move from there to other prison locations in order to facilitate your escape whilst a riot is ongoing. Our GM was Rick who was fantastic throughout and clued us at exactly the right moments with just enough to push us in the right direction.

  • ... inside the room, it’s a gritty set and far more interesting than your typical prison break game.
