A re-working of their previous game (I never played the previous iteration) this room sees you applying for a job at the mysterious Cypherdyne corporation but its not the normal kind of interview.  This is a fun room with a nice mix of puzzles that flowed nicely.  It's also set in a normal office style environment and we played this at the height of summer so the windows were open and the sun was shining in, considering how often we play rooms in minimal light this made a nice change.

Some good puzzles to work through including some riddles, which I hadn't really come across before in an escape room. Quite techy with a nice hands on puzzle at the end, and intriguing use of space - never been in an escape room set in an office before!

Our second room here! Despite the theming being somewhat less impressive than other rooms (an office is an office!), the gameplay and accompanying hosting (by Benji!) here was absolutely phenomenal! Several clever bits we haven’t seen before, alongside a very very cool tech room and the final “puzzle/challenge” is totally unique!! Teamwork is essential in this room! We can’t wait to come back and do the other rooms here! So glad we got to do this before it closes!

It was very enjoyable, although the room is beginning to show it's age, the puzzles were cohesive and everything flowed well.

Quite tech and a bit frustrating. Final puzzle didn’t show properly so GM had to reset. Was ok though. Few clues. Close escape

We played this at the old premises, before the company moved to their current place.

You must interview for a job & defuse the bomb to escape this room. This room had a window, which was unusual, and memorably you had to use a clue from the view outside. Such a novel escape experience & really enjoyable.

  • [...] clever, exciting, and most importantly – fun.

  • Although this is not our favourite Cryptology room, it is still commendable and well worth playing
