Whilst sailing the seven seas on a quest for fame and fortune, your ship gets raided… by pirates!
A skirmish breaks out and despite your best efforts, the pirates board your ship and plunder your treasure! You try to keep your ship together but it’s too late, you’re knocked unconscious by one of the scallywags.
On awakening, you find yourself locked in the brig with a few of your crew mates on board the enemy’s galleon. To your surprise, there appears to be no-one else on board… alive. All you can hear is the distant rumble of a fast approaching storm.
Can you break out of your cell, steer the ship to safety and find your missing loot all before the time runs out?

An absolutely brilliant game with a fantastic variety of puzzles! A true hidden gem, cleverly tucked away in the most unsuspecting building. From start to finish, it delivers an immersive and cleverly designed experience that keeps you engaged and thinking. Highly recommend!

Great pirate themed room with some imaginative and different puzzles. The game flowed perfectly and we only needed one clue to find a well hidden item. Brilliant, friendly and accommodating hosts too
If you're in the area, I highly recommend you play Escape from the Cursed Galleon. Our team of four was a good number to tackle the room, though I'd say that's should be the max. I'd say a duo of experienced players could take it on in time too.
And when you're there, see if you can find the Armchair Escapist logo!
