71/71! With one clue to an item that needed using twice which we hadn’t realised. Friendly welcome, an excellent range of puzzles and plenty to do. A great room, so go to play! Looking forward to getting back to play another game.

Gameplay

Not about the time, aim to score as many points as possible.

Great theme.

This was a fun concept for a room, but the non-linear format of the second stage was fairly overwhelming with two people. The mechanics of the scoring was good fun, and we were glad to get full marks. There were a couple of things that felt like they required a bit of external knowledge, and there were a few solutions that felt unclear. Not the most satisfying room that we've ever done, but certainly not the worst.

Really fun and one of the best ones I’ve done. Very friendly staff. Lots of puzzles and multiple at the same time.

Gameplay

Amazing. Lots of puzzles and the ending was suspenseful seeing how well you have done.

This room is mostly focussed on puzzles, not so much on story or special effects. It is an almost purely mechanical room, but it still feels like an upgrade over some of the more classic mechanical puzzle escape rooms. The concept is not so much getting out of the room, but it is on solving as many puzzles as possible within the hour and trying to defend the Britain against the Germans.

Gameplay

The first part of the room is pretty guiding, while the second part can be a bit overwhelming because there are many puzzles that you can do at the same time.

Atmosphere

Don't expect many sound, light or special effects here. The room is quite small, but the decorations and puzzles feel like they could belong in 1940.

Customer service

Our GM Eleonor was very kind and welcoming. She was following along very well and gave us just the right amount of hints when we asked for them.

Brilliantly creative, unlike any other game I've played. A new top game for me and a must-do in London. Tip: lots going on here. Bring a few friends if you want to get 100%!

Good, but sadly the GM isn't in character. This would be an easy fix and heighten the stakes.

Fun and unique room! Different aspects than your typical escape room - our host Jake was super nice and was very helpful in hints. Think if we had 3 players it would’ve been perfect bc there was so much to do since it was just two of us!

One of the top three rooms we've ever done. (And that still stands after another 40 something rooms since completing it.) A lot of puzzles that all come together in such a clever way. A super fun room with lots to do. Our GM David was also our favourite Games Master we've ever had. A true delight. His enthusiasm for escape rooms shined through.
