The Bank Job gives players the opportunity to pull off the ultimate robbery. Not for the faint hearted, teams can pit their wits against a range of puzzles and overcome a series of challenges in order to crack the safe and grab the loot. The Bank Job tests mental, physical and lateral-thinking skills as teams have one hour to grab the largest possible haul. Groups of would-be master criminals need to operate as a one, delegating tasks and helping each other out. Just make sure you get out before the Old Bill arrives!

We loved this room. We escaped with the max money of Β£2000000. So many puzzles to keep us occupied, varied ones too. Would really recommend this. It's about how much money you collect rather than time so you could be in there the full our so it really represents value for money.

We enjoyed this room, you take the whole hour and try to escape with as much money as you can. The bonus puzzles were good fun too, we did go nearly 4 years ago so they may have changed and updated things since, but we had a good time especially with the change in premise of getting as much money as you could rather than escaping the room in the quickest time.
A decent puzzle-fest that provided us with a good chunk of time in the room. The aim is to snatch all Β£1 million but with the two added bonuses, Β£2 million is possible. There are some nice little puzzles in here and we do like a vault full of padlocks so it suited us well.
This was one of the first heist games we played and it remains one of our favourites. The puzzles were varied, flowed well and there was lots to keep us all busy. Frustrated with ourselves that time ran out and we were working on the last puzzle to fully empty the vault!
A fun bank job game that presents a real challenge even for enthusiasts. It kept us busy for most of the hour, rarely leaving any of the team feeling like they were at a loose end and at times almost felt like we were involved in a real heist.
