Midlands

List of the rooms we have reviewed in the Midlands. In date order from newest to oldest

Thinking Outside the Box: Retro (Peterborough)

I loved this room, I really did. Retrogaming memories are my weakness and this room exploited them to the max

Thinking Outside the Box: Magician’s Apprentice (Peterborough)

Everything in the room was on theme, and puzzles were logical. This is a fun room, that although perhaps a little ‘home-made’ is still worth the visit

Escape Peterborough: Contagion (Peterborough)

If you’re lucky enough to get a good GM then this is a solid room and one we would happily recommend to enthusiasts

Escape Peterborough: Witchcraft & Wizardry (Peterborough)

If things were running smoothly this is probably an ok room, particularly for children or new players. But if you’re an enthusiast I think you’ll find this room rather lacking and one to avoid.

Escape Peterborough: Espionage (Peterborough)

While we did escape, it was only just managed, and we were left feeling a bit deflated, due to both the quality of the puzzles and the attentiveness of the GM

Trapp’d: Red Rock (Peterborough)

This room is massive, and while we successfully completed it as a two, this would definitely be well suited to, and fun for, a larger group.

Trapp’d: Madame Curio’s Cirque Delirium (Peterborough)

Lacking in backstory this room makes up for it in the excitement it delivers at all points. Easier puzzles but good for all ages (except maybe the really old).

The Great Escape Game: Submerged (Sheffield)

If you’re looking for a room that does something a bit different then this is the one, it forces you to rely on communication between each other and without it you will go down with the ship.
