Excellent room. Good theme. Puzzles were solid. My group also did their Battle for Britain one and preferred that one, but this one is worth doing, too!

An oldie but a goodie! Decent theming and room design coupled with a stack full of Gen-1 puzzles to solve. Room plays nonlinear and was a lot of fun just as a twosome

Prisoner of war scenario with some guard (gamemaster) noises to increase the tension. Some analog puzzles we've never seen. Whole staff was great at this place (Janet, Lydia, Sarah and Sarah) Escape Couple rating: 4 ποΈ: Better than average room (we use a 1-6ποΈ rating scale)
Some of the most fun game masters weβve had the pleasure of meeting.

A solid escape room experience. I wouldn't say it would knock your socks off, but everything is very well done: the set is fun to interact with, the theming is quite strong and all the puzzles are good. My host was additionally fluent in German, which really added to atmosphere of having guards constantly trying to catch you in the act of escaping. π€£

A fun and engaging game from start to finish. Clever puzzles - some of them artfully handmade - and clear story that was engaging and appropriate to the WWII theme. Proves that you can create a great game with good puzzles, an immersive setting and good story - fancy technology wasnβt part of the game and wasnβt needed at all!
