About the escape room
Old Man Foole has left behind a wealth of minerals and jewels, the kind that would help the Professor run experiments for years to come! He just needs a bunch of ne’er-do-wells for a little heist…
That’s where you come in!
Prepare for Clockwork Escapes’ most ambitious game yet (and, quite possible, the Professor’s new favourite): A heist to steal as much gold and jewels from Old Man Foole’s mine and escape with your bag full! At the end of the run your bag will be weighed and you will be added to the Score Board to see how you did versus all of our other tricky thieves.
Time for a room that’s just as physical as it is mental, pushing, pulling, throwing, lifting, are all important here, so be ready for it. And yes, it’s pretty dark in the mine, but with far more light than Alleyway, don’t you worry.
Times have been tough in 2020, my friends, but this one will make business pick up. After all: This idea is a Gold Mine!

AI Overview
AIPlayers consistently praise the immersive mine set and in-character hosting. Puzzles are varied, logical, and include novel mechanics, plus extra goals beyond just escaping. The room often runs to the wire, with several teams saying a third player helps. Lighting starts intentionally dim but it’s not a horror vibe.
WeaknessesThe opening can feel very dark and may slow progress. As a duo it’s doable but tight; many felt a third person would help. The physical bits and time pressure mean you might miss a section if you rush.
StrengthsHighly immersive, authentic set that fits the story. Fresh puzzle ideas and a fun collecting mechanic that feeds a scoreboard. Engaging, in-character hosting that adds humor and timely nudges.
SecurityIt’s dark and involves pushing, lifting, and moving props, so watch your footing and energy levels. No direct info on briefings or accessibility provided in reviews.
Level of fearNot scary, just dark and dusty in places. Suitable for teens and nervous players who want tension without frights.
Actors' gameThe Professor/GM gets strong shout-outs for staying in character and being genuinely funny. Hints land well and enhance the flow rather than spoon-feeding.
Quality of riddlesA good spread of logic, search, and physical tasks with several novel elements. Clues connect cleanly and pay off with clear aha moments. Extra challenges and the haul-scoring twist reward efficient teamwork.
PlotYou’re pulling a heist in Old Man Foole’s mine, grabbing as many jewels as you can and escaping with the loot. Your final haul gets weighed and ranked on a leaderboard, which fuels the competition.
Difficulty levelQuite challenging and designed to use most of the hour; best for groups of three or more. Newer teams can still succeed with hints, but expect a workout for both brain and body.
