The Anatomist
Beginner

Non‑linear, multi‑space layout with a spooky aesthetic that never tips into full horror. We got caught by a couple of jump scares and there’s a small confined section for one teammate. Loved the mix of classic puzzles—ordering, weights, a cryptex—and the finale clicks together in a really satisfying way. We split up, stayed busy, and finished in about 45 minutes. A strong room, a touch easier than

I was wary of another franchise room, but this one won me over. From the tidy lounge to the friendly welcome, it started right, and our GM DJ set the mood perfectly before we entered an eerie, artifact-packed cabin. The puzzles are fairly linear, flow smoothly, and cover observation, exploration, and deduction; it’s more spooky than scary, though one moment made us all jump. Multi-room transitions

Radio Nowhere
Beginner

Before we even stepped inside, we got a briefing folder in the cafe that set the scene and told us where to start. Inside, you run the station and the investigation in acts, answering questionnaires that unlock the next broadcast if you’re right. We found suspects, then built motive, means, and opportunity, with the GM personalizing how much we roleplayed. Hunting for cassette tapes, tuning radios

The Deacon's Cabinet
Beginner

I’d heard this was the weaker sibling to The Anatomist, but it absolutely floored me. The GM’s theatrical intro hooked us, the theming is immaculate, and the cabinet is a masterwork—practical, artisanal, and a joy to play. Yes, it’s a single room, yet six of us were busy almost the whole hour. A couple of steps flirted with subjectivity, but teamwork carried us, and one reveal made me shout with d

The Murder of Max Sinclair

Ronan dropped into character during our cafe briefing and never broke it. The room feels straight out of a film noir, with lighting and music shifting as you unlock each act by submitting your answers. We sifted through evidence, tested samples, decoded messages, and even compared handwriting before a slick finale. Totally get why it’s award-nominated—an inspired blend of escape room, murder myste

Radio Nowhere

I’ve done 50+ rooms and this stands apart—more courtroom drama meets detective game than classic escape room. If you live for locks, look elsewhere, but if you want a case to crack, it’s a must-do in Edinburgh. Huge props to Rowan, and a cheeky nod to Sampson Industrial Loose Nails.

The Deacon's Cabinet
Beginner

Charlotte slipped into character and, with moody lighting and that old-workshop scent, whisked us back in time. The cabinet acts like a giant puzzle box and the gameplay is largely linear, with some quick wins and some real stumpers. It’s their toughest room, but still packed with secrets despite being a single space. A prop misbehaved near the end and Charlotte fixed it instantly without breaking

The Deacon's Cabinet

We came for The Anatomist and stayed for this, which we liked even more. The cabinet is a star turn and the opening lands with proper drama. It’s puzzle-heavy and trickier, but our GM guided just enough to keep us moving, and we squeaked out a finish under an hour. Smart use of a small space and puzzles that feel rooted in the history. Massive thanks to Beth, who elevated an already great game.
