Hello, my name is Jim Moriarty. I like to play with my toys and make them do whatever I want. I like to keep my toys in boxes and if they can’t solve my puzzles I blow them up. If you haven’t already guessed, yes, you are my toys. Can’t wait to play with you. This will be fun! For me...

The game has a reasonably interesting setting of being closed in a box for the whole time, however, that is where the originality, thrill or value ends. The storyline is poor, there are just a few uninteresting puzzles that are of a value of 10 minutes in a standard escape room. It is technologically poorly done, with an overall estimated cost of about 200 pounds max. There is a problem with hearing the partner and there is a very basic kindergarten type of puzzle for the last 15 minutes which you have to solve on the iPad - this is a big de-escalation. Overall, the escape 'room' contains just a few poorly designed puzzles and despite getting it with a 70%-off offer, it was still not worth the money. Would not recommend it.

In real life, being kidnapped by a criminal and left shackled in a box next to a ticking bomb would I suppose be a thoroughly unpleasant experience - so in that sense I guess you could say that Komnata have nailed the realism here.

Sherlocked is a 45 minute concept game for two players. (You can book for four, but in that case you play as two separate pairs, in the two copies of the game.) Each player is handcuffed and locked in one of two adjoining β€˜coffins’ - though fortunately these padded b...
