Escape room

Mark as done to rate

The Millers, thought they had the Fairytale life - a wonderful marriage, a beautiful home and a gorgeous little daughter, Olivia. They also liked games, challenging games and they were very good at them, so when a stranger set them a challenge to find his lair and then the way out, Riches beyond their wildest dreams were promised upon success. The price to pay on failure… a small gift of hearts desire. In The Millers case that ‘small gift’ turned out to be their little daughter Olivia. Who disappeared from her bedroom in the dead of night. They have spent the years since searching for the mysterious stranger and their daughter, hoping to play the game again and win her back. Having, finally, found him and agreed the stake they are now pleading with other escapologists to help them defeat the wicked ‘little man’. Do you want to play a game? Do you have the skills to defeat the man with no name? Are you prepared? As there are worse things in life to lose, than just a game… ...Afterall, not all Fairytales have a happy ending.

This was the first room we played at deception. The story and theming was fabulous! The jump scares definitely got us in a few places. You are told if you are “caught” by a character then you automatically fail which put pressure on us to hide rather than solve puzzles, though I feel they probably don’t throw you out the game if they do see you. Like their other room we went back to do, we found it very difficult with just two players and didn’t escape. However we still enjoyed it. There is a puzzle which only gives you limited time to solve at the end, and if you do it wrong it’s game over even if you have time left, which is not a concept I’m overly keen on (we didn’t get that far anyway 😂)
