About the escape room

As a mortal, to enter your afterlife, you must first die. How you die is your choice (this particular time at least....) but all must enter through the void of transcendence. Only the brave will follow the light, crawl out of the grave and go to hell and back. Logical thinking and teamwork is what you need to ensure that when your hour is up your name is found in the Book of Life.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIReviews consistently praise the immersive set and cohesive theme. The first puzzle feels tougher than the rest, after which most teams pick up pace and finish strong. Low lighting adds challenge and mood in equal measure. Hosting is a highlight, though a few mention waiting outside at the Sheffield branch.

WeaknessesIt can be very dark, which slows searching. The opening sequence is a difficulty spike compared to the smoother mid-to-end flow. Some Sheffield visitors reported standing outside before being let in.

StrengthsStriking atmosphere and set design make the afterlife premise feel tangible. Puzzles are logical and satisfying once you crack the opener, and the hosting is warm and on-point.

SecurityStandard briefings and watchful hosting keep things comfortable. Move carefully in the low light and you’ll be fine; staff are quick to assist.

Level of fearMore eerie than outright scary, with darkness and a death-and-beyond vibe rather than jump scares. Good for groups who are fine with low light and spooky ambience.

Actors' gameNo live actors are mentioned; interaction comes through the game master. Ajay and the team get kudos for attentive, well-timed hints and a fun presence.

Quality of riddlesGenerally fair and varied, with a notably chewy first step that gives way to quicker, cleaner solves. Logic tracks well and clues land when needed. Darkness adds friction but doesn’t break the sense-making.

PlotDie, cross the void, and claw your way back so your name lands in the Book of Life. The journey ties neatly into the tasks without overexplaining.

Difficulty levelA spiky start followed by an easier, faster flow. Mixed-skill teams will enjoy it; veterans may wish for a tougher finale.

Loved the vibe from the first minute. Ajay kept the hints light and perfectly timed, and once we cracked the opener the whole run clicked. Immersive, clever, and just the right kind of eerie.

Superb theming and a satisfying rhythm once you’re past the first hurdle. Hosts were switched on and kept the game moving without over-hinting. Would happily recommend to mixed-experience teams.

Strong theme and atmosphere, with puzzles that made sense even in the gloom. It’s pretty dark, which upped the challenge, but our host kept it on track and we had a great time.

A tidy, well set up room with friendly hosts. We found the puzzles easier than in many other games we’ve done, but it was still a satisfying run.

Well presented with nice staging. Most puzzles weren’t too tough, aside from the first one that took us a while, but overall it was a neat, cohesive experience.
