Important information and features of the escape room
Children of any age can participate as part of a team with adults. Our rooms are family-friendly, and there will be elements that children can join in with. For children-only groups, a non-paying adult may be asked to supervise in the room; this is for both safety and insurance purposes. Arrive 5-10 minutes early for briefing. No scary elements. The room is on the ground floor with ramp access and a corridor width of 71cm at narrowest point. Contact for accessibility questions.

Location
AI Overview
AIPlayers highlight a big variety of puzzles and the freedom to solve them in any order. The style is traditional rather than tech-heavy, but that doesn’t dampen the fun. Hosts get specific praise by name and make the experience feel welcoming. It may be tough for small or first-time teams due to the sheer volume of challenges.
WeaknessesCould be challenging for small or inexperienced groups. Minimal tech might underwhelm players who want flashy effects.
StrengthsLoads of varied, well-received puzzles with a satisfying, non-linear flow. Warm, attentive hosting that adds to the experience. Traditional charm without needing flash or gadgets.
SecurityNo specific safety details in reviews. One mention of a friendly pre- and post-game chat suggests a standard briefing and debrief.
Level of fearNot described as scary and reads more cozy than creepy. Should be fine for families and skittish players.
Actors' gameHosts are repeatedly praised, with Adam and Sophie called out as friendly and brilliant. Interaction seems focused on thoughtful briefing and a nice chat before and after the game.
Quality of riddlesPuzzle quality is a strong suit: varied, plentiful, and fair. The room supports parallel solving, so teammates can split up and stay engaged. Expect an old-school approach over tech-driven tricks.
PlotYou’re proving you’re worthy to enter Madame Castello’s parlour and earn a rare fortune reading. The theme frames the journey without heavy story beats or spoilers.
Difficulty levelPuzzle density is high and better suited to groups with some experience. Smaller or brand-new teams may find it demanding but rewarding.
