Even now, after a drink, a game of pool in the ultra-funky lobby area of Mama Bazooka, a video replay of our game highlights (do I really look/sound like that?!), the drive back to our campsite and a full-on debrief with the other half of the team, I'm still a bit stumped as to what I was just a part of.We got out in time... but were we successful? Did I do puzzles? Did I run around like a headless chicken? Did we even just do an escape room?! The Dome defies convention, logic and, at times, time and space. Now that I look back on it, I can see the links, the threads of thought, the flow of the gameplay but in the game, I was a bewildered rabbit in the glaring headlights of The Dome, subject only to the whims of Mama Bazooka and the relentlessly bonkers imagination of whoever dreamed up the whole concept.
It's genius, really, and truly is one of those 'just go and play it' games where you need to embrace the lunacy and throw yourself into every moment because - as with anything truly enjoyable - it will be over before you know it and you'll be wishing you could go back to the beginning to play it again.

great hosting
Was a decent game for mid-week, we have started to do a few mid week to make it a bit cheaper π. But overall was good fun, one of the locks was very stiff which wasted a few minutes as we went over the same puzzle a few times! Great hosts and good city centre location. Would rate a 3.5/5 on the difficulty scale
