Permanently Closed - Your team is breaking into the safehouse of London's most notorious criminal gang. You will have to analyse highly confidential information, navigate your way through top level security and all this before you can even attempt to enter the vault. Of course there is money involved, but the challenges along the way will be tough and efficient teamwork will be absolutely essential to get you anywhere. Only the top scoring teams will make it to the leaderboard. Do you have what it takes to make the top ten?

Fun, but not as good as I'd hoped from seeing the other reviews. A cute room. Good original puzzles. The score based on the amount of money you get out was less of a core mechanic than I'd hoped

I liked the concept of maximizing your take rather than purely going for time, although at some point, we just decided we were done. It's a nice change from normal escape room logic/goals. The room is getting on in years, but there are some nice puzzles there. I think the last room probably needs some refurbishment in terms of the materials (first part is fine). Fun, but it didn't knock my socks off.

Very different setup to other escape rooms, the goal isn’t to escape it’s to steal the most money. Sadly we missed one thing that was hidden very well but it was a lot of fun and many different kinds of puzzles

There were old school and new style puzzles in this room meaning you would need two different views on how to get things done. Completely worth checking out, don't want to spoil this one at all.

A fun game that might have seemed groundbreaking when it opened circa 2016. Although it is well maintained and nothing is broken, some of the puzzles feel a little dated— a bit too much combing through text on printed pieces of paper at the start. But it builds nicely.

Accessibility

Requires a certain amount of mobility But the GM can apparently bypass it if needed. Note that the room itself is in the basement and I’m not sure there’s a lift— check With the venue.
