A mad scientist known only as Dog Man has been acting rather odd after a series of murders have been committed. Nobody is listening to your warnings. It’s now up to you and your gang to get to the bottom of these mysterious events and discover who is the next victim. 

After weeks of following Dog Man, in search of information you have decided there is no option but to break into his flat. The man as curious as he is, appears to have a strict daily structure. Leaving his house only but once a day for one hour whilst he walks his very particular route with his pride and joy pooch.

The only things that are certain are his specific 1-hour daily route and his address, Flat E5 cape road.

great hosting

Played this local game and enjoyed it. We were a bit out of practice and found some of the puzzles a little tricky, and probably wouldn't have escaped without the host's help. It was a well thought out room, and it's great to see a Huntingdon based company trying to crack the market in the area. It's long overdue!

I recommend you play with as smaller team as possible (4 absolute max) as the space is very small and pokey. However they've done a great job, all things considered, and are clearly enthusiasts. We had a good chat with the host after and it looks like there's more things to come. Look forward to seeing what they do next!

Great experience. The story tied everything together well. Clues were varied and clever - often with a twist on what one would expect. Space was utilised well although the first area was a bit of a squash for our team of 6. I look forward to seeing more of what this company has to offer.

Lots packed into a tiny space- some really clever puzzles and all linked to the story of the game. Loved the ending!

Amazing first room from this venue with more planned! Very clever use of a quirky space, although our max team of 6 struggled to all have something to do at times in the first part of the room as the space is limited, However we were all able to observe and keep busy and focus on particular areas as needed. The room is superbly themed and contains many fun puzzles, often with a twist on what has been seen and done before. Clever, enjoyable and challenging, with the added bonus of a dining and drinks space in the same location for pre-escape planning or post-escape analysis! We gave feedback which they are actively working with and we can't wait to see more from them!
