Lovely theme, not quite so well pulled off. A couple of puzzles not quite functional, one nearly impossible to read (frankly only ‘solved’ by guesswork).  A couple of puzzles that seemed to go against logic/the basic escape room rules of ‘no force needed’- both of which we felt the need to confirm with the games master. Especially odd since the intro talk was more about not braking things and damaging the set else you’d get kicked out than about the normal padlock talk.

Decent room, interesting theme and some fun tasks… seemed as if there weren’t actually many puzzles (although I appreciate this is subjective) and I spent a good 5 minutes sat on the floor with a calculator and I’m alright at maths. I think that people with weak knowledge of maths may struggle..

Great room, very interesting story/concept & a couple of really original elements. Would recommend.

Good game, some fun puzzles, although a little confusing at one stage as very loud music is triggered and everything goes dark apart from flashing lights which just added mayhem and the only way to stop the music/darkness/flashing isn't something logical.. but the volume means there is no way to get a clue.. ended up with the games master coming into the room and confusing us further.

Marketing makes this seem like it might be a bit spooky, but it's actually just really fun. Clever use and adaptation of well-known games.

Good escape room generally, as a true crime fan I thought the use of the real case photos was interesting although this may not be for all. 

Unfortunately we didn't get out, probably needed about 1 more minute, although we lost about 10 minutes on tech that wasn't working properly so didn't trigger the next step for us until a member of staff came in to check.

From the moment the game starts, you know things are going to be out of the ordinary. A grimm twist on classic fairytales, with really smart use of the set & puzzles to bring the stories to life. 

Scare-wise, a few creepy elements and one or two jump-scares, so don't let the scariness put you off of this great room. 

As always, great concept and execution, and great hosting from EO.

hi-techoriginalillogicalvery difficult

Extremely difficult room (don't underestimate it's name or description) 

Not particularly themed/immersive. Less logic-based puzzles, more physical use of hi-tech equipment. 

Do not try this room if you take yourself too seriously - you will not beat it, and you will get frustrated.
