    We had such a great time. Had some trouble getting started, but when we did, we nailed it, and had a great time. Thank you to the friendly staff that got us started with some drinks. They explained everything thoroughly and answered any questions we had. Highly recommended.

    We did two rooms over the course ofnteo days, ranging from moderately difficult to very difficult. Enjoyed them both very much. They were the ideal activities on a couple of dreary days. Very fun!

    A clue was in the box for our bags and coats so unfortunately we couldn’t complete the quest as it was covered by our gear. The item was meant to be on some other prop

    Great for group 12/13 yr old friends celebrating a birthday. Challenging but not too difficult with plenty to keep young minds working for a full hour. Very enjoyable! Very helpful staff

    FANTASTIC fun, HIGHLY recommend. Did the 'Udder Graziness' room with my 9 & 11yo daughters in the school holidays, and all three of us LOVED it. The hour absolutely flew by, and we were buzzing for the rest of the day. The kids are still going on about it now, and plans are afoot for the next birthday parties. We did the kids/beginner level (obviously), which was perfect for all three of us (definitely not too easy; but not too hard, we managed to make it through all the challenges (just!)) - while we had to ask for a few clues, we got most of them, and the kids loved the 'out of the box' thinking required (and unsurprisingly were much better at that aspect than me!) Definitely do it!!!!

    These escape rooms are totally different from others which makes it a unique experience.

    The whole thing is very clever and well laid out and there are several themes one can choose from. We completed the most difficult room (Evil Hospital) so for those escape room pros, this is the one for you as the pass rate is only 30% apparently.

    Definitely worth a try!

    I went to this escape room with a group of 4 of us. The young man that greeted us was very friendly. The escape room itself was definitely very challenging and involved thinking outside of the box. I liked that this was not just a simple padlock combination game and instead had many clever contraptions that needed to be triggered to move on to the next puzzle. It was obvious that there was a lot of thought put into the puzzles and the storyline. The reasons I have not given it a 5 star review are as follows:
    1. Some of the puzzles (one in particular) seem almost impossible to figure out without a hint. Luckily, you are given three hints to use whenever you want, otherwise I think we would still be stuck in there right now.
    2. It will cost you more per 30mins extra that you require to escape. Considering what I previously said about some puzzles being almost impossible, it seems unfair to charge more if you are not intruding on the next escape teams time.
    Despite this, it was an enjoyable experience. :)

    Lots of fun had by all. Group of 3 teens attended as a school holiday activity. Great that you can add on laser tag, etc, if you would like to and ice skating in the same building.

    We took a group of 9 12yr old boys here for my sons bday party. They split into two groups and went into the sands of time escape room. This escape starts in two seperate rooms where they work there way out to meet in the next room and then can carry on together as a whole group. My husband went with one of the groups (not that he was a lot of help!) it took them quite some time to solve each clue and they had to get a bit of help along the way. I thoroughly enjoyed watching them on camera and been able to communicate over a speaker to them to give them clues that one of the staff was relaying to me. The staff are absolutely fantastic and make the whole experience really enjoyable. All the boys and my husband had a great time, they really enjoyed all the different puzzles and clues they had to work through and can’t wait to go back. My 10yr old daughter also went in with one of the groups and really loved it also. We are already planning when to go back as a family to try another room.

    My buddy and I played on the Race Car Simulator, it was awesome to race side by side against him, no matter how many times we kept bumping into each other!

    My Friends and I really enjoy doing The Real Escape Games, We saw a deal on Grabone so about 15 of us booked. We split into two groups as to what theme we love the most out of The Walking Dead or Saw, then to race against each other of course. When we got in the rooms it was not what we expected at all. Sure, the rooms are dressed to theme .. but thats about it. The 'clues' had nothing to do with the theme or anything at all really. They were just random puzzles. You get three clues in the one hour you get to escape. When we were stuck we called for a clue to help us get the answer, but they just gave us the answer rather than telling us HOW to solve it. When we have done this in other places we are jumping up and down of excitement when we unlock the door but there was no excitement or thrill for this game unfortunately. The Staff were lovely though.
