Mr Pepper’s Toy ShopThe Cipher Room St PetersEscape roomIRLCompleted this room with 4 people. Would definitely recommend doing it 4 people at least as it had quite a lot of puzzles within the time limit. I was a bit apprehensive about this room as I don’t like horror rooms, but it wasn’t too bad. It had a few jump scares but as there were a few of us, different people experienced them so it wasn’t as bad 😂 There were a few scary moments but overall it was still very enjoyable. The puzzles were all very creative and the gameplay flowed well; we didn’t really have any questions by the end of the game. There were some really cool mechanisms (you’ll know it when you see it). Another great room by Cipher Room!

CurioEscape Rooms CanberraEscape roomIRLWe completed the Curio with 4 people. It was a very magical room with a lot of fun mechanisms and unique puzzles, especially one near the end which was a surprise. The rooms themselves were a little small so sometimes felt a bit cramped when exploring, but that didn’t detract from the experience of solving the puzzles. Overall great room and would definitely recommend!
The HotelRiddle Room CanberraEscape roomIRLWe completed The Hotel as a group of 4. It was a very immersive experience and the set design was beautiful. It was a little scary but not as bad as I feared. There were no padlocks or number locks to be seen and it had some really unique and creative puzzles. Overall, it was a great experience and I would highly recommend!
The ArtefactNext Level EscapeEscape roomIRLCompleted the room with 2 people just under the time limit. Immersive gameplay and a great range of puzzles. Had some narration as all their rooms do but still a lot of freedom to solve the puzzles in the way/order you want to. There were some cooperative puzzles that you needed at least 2 people in order to complete, which was very fun. Similar feel to the End of the Road, so if you enjoyed that one you’d definitely like this one. Really enjoyed it, definitely recommend!
RansomSocial Escape RoomsEscape roomIRLCompleted this room in a group of 2. Very immersive and gameplay flowed well. A variety of creative and interesting puzzles and the decor and set worked well to contribute to the puzzles. Very interesting start and some fun surprises in the room. Really enjoyed this room overall, would definitely recommend!
The CabinThe Cipher Room NewtownEscape roomIRLCompleted with a group of 4. Not as scary as I feared, but had a “serial killer” vibe to set the scene. It was a good room with a lot of creative puzzles, though some were similar to other Cipher room puzzles, and since we had done some of the other rooms already, it wasn’t as novel. Still a great room nonetheless and thoroughly enjoyable.
End of the RoadNext Level EscapeEscape roomIRLCompleted End of the Road with 2 people and finished in just under an hour (with a time limit of 75 mins). This was such a fantastic experience, can’t recommend enough; I would say it’s one of my top 3 escape room experiences. It was very immersive, the GM was an excellent in-character narrator and it was such an enjoyable and humorous experience. The puzzles were unique with a mix of different puzzles. The gameplay flowed very well and although it was multilinear, all the puzzles made sense. We enjoyed this room immensely and would highly recommend it! 10/10!!
Steampunk: Alchemist RevengeQuest RoomEscape roomIRLCompleted this room with 4 people just under the time limit. Really enjoyed this room, especially the “steampunk” aesthetic and the puzzles. The puzzles were very fitting and the mechanisms were very cool. There was no padlocks in this room at all and everything flowed very well. One of my favourite rooms in Brisbane, would highly recommend!!
