⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a game! Even after playing this game over a week ago, I am still buzzing with excitement thinking back on the experience as a whole! As soon as we entered the building we were greeted by such a fun and friendly GM who really welcomed us. From that moment, I knew we were in good hands. The room set itself is an absolute must-see! No detail has been spared and every prop has been carefully thought out. Enigma have hit every mark with this build and it’s obvious a lot of love and time has been sunk into this project. Even every little yellow brick in the road! There was a good mix of difficulty with the puzzles and, even though we did struggle with some, the clues we received gave us just enough information to solve it on our own terms. There are no leaps in logic and everything seems to flow together seamlessly. Overall, this is easily a 5 star experience and I would highly recommend this room to anyone - to escape enthusiasts and novices alike!

Gameplay

Great fun and a logical flow. As a team of 4, it really felt like we all had something to do without being overwhelmed. Some puzzles, as is often the case, we did stumble on but that was down to us not reading things properly or not thinking things through. Everything was laid out in a logical way as was a true joy to play!

Atmosphere

Thoroughly impressed! No expense was spared and we really were transported to Oz (well, Kansas) the moment we stepped through the door. You can tell a lot of time and effort has gone into the set and build and it truly makes the whole experience magical!

Customer service

Andy was lovely and so enthusiastic! Really made us feel welcome and we had such a good time! The game ran really smoothly; we were not over clued and felt no shame in asking for the help when we needed it. Will be back in a heartbeat to play their next room, when it opens, just to have another game ran by Andy!

Parking

Easy

The site is just off the main road with lots of nearby parking available!

Truly beautiful. It was a great experience. The place looks amazing. To room looks even better. Some great puzzles and nice ‘ahha’ moments. Nothing over complicated but not too easy. Has everything you’d expect with nice little extras thrown in. Great for families and would HIGHLY recommend this game. It may be my new favourite.

Gameplay

The puzzles flow really well. Great mix of traditional and new. And stuff for old and new players, and old and young.

Atmosphere

Exactly as you’d expect. Has everything within the story and more. Theming and set is amazing. Really put the money and effort into it.

Customer service

Very welcoming. Usual friendly brief and clues came at right time.

Yes

Never played this theme before.

Story

Exactly what you expect and more.

Difficulty

Medium

Some easy wins. Some things I overthought, but nothing that made you think ‘how?’

Game tech

Some great use of tech. I wouldn’t say it’s high tech, but it’s certainly well used and appropriate.

Ideal number of players

4

I always say 4 is a good number for any escape room. Max is 6 in this room, we did it as a 4. Space wasn’t tight, and there was enough for everyone to do.

Scary

Not scary

Family friendly.

Minimum age

8

Younger people may enjoy some aspects of this game, I always recommend 8+ so they can get involved with some puzzles, but set design alone is great for youngster.
