Reviews of escape rooms in Newcastle upon Tyne
Armageddon
Beginner4
My first room at The Escape Key and it set a high bar. Friendly, knowledgeable staff, excellent North East set design, and a multi-room layout that uses every inch well. Puzzles flow cleanly, the non-linear finish still tracks with the story, and the period tech is used smartly. Solid medium challenge and great value.

Volatile Labs
Beginner5
Third room at EXIT for us and another hit. The puzzles all tracked logically, hit that sweet spot of challenge, and felt great to finish. It’s not linear, so our team of three split up and no one was left waiting around. Game masters were a joy to chat with, and the collectible pin at the end was a fun bonus. We’ll be back for more.

The Detention
Beginner5
Great experience overall with a well-thought-out room and a friendly, helpful GM. You can tell Silas cares about how you play and he set the tone with a strong thematic briefing. The space was clean, well maintained, and packed with good puzzles.

Plague
Beginner5
Super fun experience that I’d happily recommend. There are a couple of jump scares, but they can remove them if you ask, and it’s not a horror room anyway. The Game Master had great energy, kept us on track, and tailored help to exactly what we needed. Tip: expect a bit of fractions work.

Plague
Beginner5
Cracking set and a GM who was both funny and razor-sharp with hints. We asked to tone down the jump scares and they happily did, which kept our nervous friend smiling. Smart puzzles, great flow, and we left buzzing.

Armageddon
Beginner5
We’ve done a bunch of rooms and this still surprised us with its unique touches. The intro videos and film-like audio ramp up the pressure, and one person will need to do a short commando crawl, so plan your team accordingly. Loved it.

Fiorella's Cave
Beginner5
Really solid room with smooth puzzle flow and a mix of tougher and simpler beats, all tied neatly to the theme. Atmospheric, well designed, and run by fantastic staff. The pin badge option was a charming extra, and we’ll be back.

The Detention
Beginner5
We booked Detention right after finishing The Briefcase and it delivered again, with clever, unique puzzles and great flow. It felt a touch easier than Briefcase but just as enjoyable. Silas clearly cares and always asks for feedback, and these rooms are the best I’ve done in the North East by a distance. Excited for what’s next.
