- Kim K2 contributionsThanks AmeliaAmelia was absolutely amazing, made our experience fantastic. We have been to a few between us and never won, we did here! Gave us the boost we need to keep trying, not many escape rooms have younger children so we were really happy. A fantastic game, prison strike, and with great guidance from Amelia we nailed it. Thanku for a great timeVisited September 2023Traveled with familyWritten September 9, 2023
- Kayley S1 contributionAmazing evening outThe rooms here are so well thought out. What I like about these rooms are that it doesn’t matter how many people you go with, there’s enough puzzles for people to get on and do/look at. We managed to escape with 15 minutes remaining. Thoroughly enjoyed. Can’t wait to try a new one with them 😊 Rosie was our host and was very helpfulVisited September 2023Traveled with friendsWritten September 9, 2023
- Tim M19 contributionsGreat, tense fun.We loved our escape room today. At various points we were completely stuck but we managed to escape with two seconds to spare. The room was well put together and our host Rosie was awesome. Will definitely go back and do a different room again.Visited September 2023Traveled with familyWritten September 23, 2023

- Cerys WSwansea, United Kingdom1 contributionGreat Experience!Group of 6 did the Prison Break room. What a great way to spend a Saturday! Really good fun and got your mind working. Great for most ages I’d say. Was a little but physical but nothing too strenuous. Lucas was really helpful and explained everything so well. Will definitely be going back to do the other room! 😁Visited September 2023Traveled with friendsWritten September 30, 2023
- Carolina FSwansea, United Kingdom6 contributionsGreat time!It was our first ever experience in escape room and we had so much fun! Lucas was amazing and he helped us and explained everything before and if needed during the game. He was very polite and made our experience 10 times better! We went there to celebrate our 10 year anniversary and couldn’t have done a better plan! I would like to thank Lucas for his amazing work and customer service, we will definitely come back to do the other experience!!Visited October 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 4, 2023
- Alex3 contributionsMumbles BunkerHad the best time escaping from the ‘Mumbles Bunker’, we thought it would be really hard as a two and it definitely challenged us to our limits but was so much fun. Rosie was an excellent games master and helped us as soon as we needed clues. Would definitely return and recommend!Visited October 2023Traveled as a coupleWritten October 4, 2023
- Emma L1 contributionWill definitely return!!!Me and my partner had such an amazing evening in the escape room! Lucas was friendly and very informative of the instructions, making it very clear for us to understand. Will definitely be back to do another escape room!

- Sophie RTaunton, United Kingdom8 contributionsGreat morning at Breakout SwanseaAbsolutely brilliant morning at Breakout live Swansea. We took our boys (14, 12 and 8) and we all loved it. Kyran was an incredible host and made the experience even better. We already can’t wait to do the other challenge room.Visited October 2023Traveled with familyWritten October 21, 2023
- Robert L3 contributionsBogs and bags of puzzles and fun1st time in an escape room although my wife and daughter have been before. I didn’t really know what to expect, but to be fair we all had a very good time. It was really enjoyable with loads of fun trying to work out the puzzles and the codes to unlock the locks and find the keys. There were surprises at every turn and I don’t want to give anything away, but there was an extra surprise which we did not expect. The young man called Lucas who was working there was really helpful and he explained everything we need to know with plenty of detail. We will definitely be returning to do the prison escape room at a later date.Visited October 2023Traveled with familyWritten October 25, 2023

We were all blown away by how good the escape room was at Breakout Live Swansea. I personally have done many of these types of challenges and the 'Prison Break' room was definitely one of the best.
I was so impressed with how it was put together and loved the concept! Lucas (our host) was brilliant - really informative and funny with it. His subtle hints along the way when he knew how close we were to 'cracking the codes' came in very handy and we escaped with just minutes to spare!
I would certainly recommend this experience to anyone in Swansea!

Very good challenge kept us on our toes! I took a group of 15/16 year olds who were very entertained, as well as the adults! The hour flew by with Lucas being our entertaining clue giver. Great atmosphere and would definitely recommend another trip. Thank you!

Had a wonderful time here! We were served by Corey, and he was an absolute delight. His staying in character and narration really brought the experience to life. We did the "Prison Escape" room and it was a blast, good challenge and creative puzzles. Thanks to Corey we felt safe and supported the whole time. We'll definitely be coming back!

Our team broke out of the mumbles bunker! It was an amazing experience, which was made by Ewan! Ewan was so helpful, funny and friendly, he made being locked in a room, oddly fun 😁 the room it’s self was challenging but rewarding, we probably wouldn’t have gotten out early if it wasn’t for the helpful clues along the way. I would recommend this experience 100% to everyone I know. Thank you team Swansea

We had a fabulous time at Breakout Live Swansea with two groups from the school we work with as part of Ospreys in the Community. A great way to put the communication and teamwork skills they’ve learnt into action. Charlotte and Amber were awesome! Thanks for having us, we’ll definitely be back!

Went to breakout live last night with 5 friends, we originally booked for 6 but one of us couldn’t make it, we got the amount refunded which was really nice. Did the prison break, didn’t manage to escape :,( but nevertheless it was really fun and the puzzles were decent which was nice. We were given enough help to gently help us along (and not make me feel dumb) which was greatly appreciated. The room doesn’t look like much but there’s a lot more to it than meets the eye. I highly recommend it, if you’re planning to go but are hesitant, don’t hesitate! Staff are extremely lovely and helpful. Shoutout to Maddie, so patient and sweet which we appreciate especially at that time of night we understand how tiring it can get. Definitely plan to book again sometime when we can get everyone together x

We had a great time playing the Prison Stike escape room. The puzzles were varied and interesting, and the props and decor were spot on. Corey was a great and enthusiastic games master who set the scene very well and chimed in with some helpful hints at the right moments. We would thoroughly recommend it to groups of families and friends, there’s something for everyone to do and you won’t be disappointed! Thanks guys for such a great time, we’ll be back!

I came today to play the Mumbles Bunker Escape room with you. This game was so fun and had a really great variety of puzzles that really made us think.
Our game host Charlotte was fantastic. Her energy through the game was great and she knew just when to help us it with hints and clues to keep us on track.
We will definitely be back to play the rest of your rooms!

What a last minute delight!
It entertained three adults and one late teen, this was a perfect something to do whilst having a one night stop over in Swansea.
As a family we have frequented many Escape Rooms, in our opinion this room was fantastic. Without giving anything away the games was well thought out with some great puzzles and clues.
Maddie our game host was fantastic, she was friendly and when needed she gave us just enough information to help us on our way but didn’t spoil the game for us. She spoke in riddles which kept us on our toes.
If we’re in the area again we would definitely visit again to do another room. Thanks Maddie for a great game.
