Astro Quest is the rebirth of Press Start – and it works. The puzzles were much more enjoyable, the story made more sense, and the set dressing was good. It feels like this game now has something for everyone and it’s sure to be a much more enjoyable experience (once one puzzle is tweaked).
Cardiff
Exitus Escape Rooms: Coco Loco (Cardiff)
Coco Loco was a delight for pretty much all the senses, and is a perfect family friendly escape room in Cardiff. Just when we thought the game was over, Exitus surprised us once again! Often you’ll get a card, or a badge to take away from an escape room, but that’s not good enough for Exitus – what a treat!
Exitus Escape Rooms: The Curse of Senutep (Cardiff)
If you find yourself in Cardiff, it would be a crime not to stop by Exitus. You can’t go wrong with any of their games, but The Curse of Senutep is the perfect choice for large groups or challenge seeking enthusiasts.
Exitus Escape Rooms: Virus Tinkerers (Cardiff)
Virus Tinkerers was a game where everything fell into place for us and we loved our time in the lab. Fun puzzles, solid design, and nice touches as a nod to the scientists involved in the Tenovus charity – this is a must play game in Cardiff.
Escape Rooms Cardiff: The Cardiff Castle (Cardiff)
Cardiff Castle is by far the prettiest of all the games we’ve played at Escape Rooms Cardiff, and possibly the prettiest we’ve played in Cardiff itself. It’s a solid game that will be fun for enthusiasts and great for newcomers to escape rooms, plus it’s a perfect tie in if you’re planning to visit the game’s eponym while you’re in the area
Escape Rooms Cardiff: Press Start (Cardiff)
We really wanted to like this game but we found the narrative didn’t seem to fit the game and the puzzles weren’t enjoyable to us. I’d imagine some players will click and blitz this game, but unfortunately this wasn’t the game for us.
Adventure Rooms Cardiff: The Black Queen (Cardiff)
Credit to Adventure Rooms Cardiff for trying to introduce different technology in the room, it is a great room and definitely one to do if you’re in Cardiff.
Escape Rooms Cardiff: Z Room [BETA TEST]
If this beta test was anything to go by then this is going to be a hard room but good room. Very different to the other rooms we did in Cardiff
Escape Reality: Fibonacci (Cardiff)
A decent but linear room that was challenging in all the right places, unfortunately let down by a terrible clue system
Breakout Cardiff: Vacancy (Cardiff)
Not a bad room and there are definitely better in Cardiff, but if you need a room to do then this is a decent contender
Escape Rooms Cardiff: The Tomb
A well designed room with puzzles arguably on the easier side. Probably good for beginners or anyone you want to get addicted to escape rooms
Escape Reality: Alcatraz (Cardiff)
A hard room for inexperienced teams who aren’t confident on their communication, and annoying for experienced teams who like good rooms
Escape Rooms Cardiff: The Heist (Cardiff)
A solid room but make sure you are comfortable working as a split team and are happy with your communication skills
