We had a wonderful time here at Puzzled escapes today, Kevin our host was wonderful and the added touches to the game integrating the name of our son into parts of the game was a very nice touch. My Mrs said that the abandoned ship has become one of her favourite rooms as and I quote "really got that one" which is high praise indeed for an escape room. We will be back for sure.

Gameplay

A great mix of puzzles

Atmosphere

We really thought we were on a boat, what had happend to the boat? We cannot tell you, it would give it away !!

Customer service

The team there were wonderful despite us turning up 40 mins early (my fault not theirs) very welcoming, very proud of their rooms which is very understanding having played one of them now.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

The story is that the ship has shown up empty and we were sent in to investigate what had happened to it, which we found out. and we have yet to play battleships in an escape room to date so that was new to us.

The puzzles were good, I must admit I spent a lot of my time trying to restart the engines so I didn't see a lot of the first part of the room but my partner and daughter smashed that bit out and enjoyed it whilst doing it.

This was so much fun. Loved the sass involved. There is a variety of puzzles. Suitable for all types of mobility (just need 1 able person for a little bit of crawling) . The game Master was a lot of fun too. There is a lovely personal touch also

A good room with fun puzzles. We had particular problems with one puzzles and found there was lack of guidance/ instruction if you are not familiar with rules of the game.

We have never played battleship before. This was problematic for one puzzle and the room lacked guidance or instructions - which became very frustrating.

Thanks for pointing this out Beth we really appreciated the feedback. A few months back when we read your comments, we made a small change to that puzzle to make the rules clearer, and it’s been in place for a few months now. We held off replying until we were confident it had solved the problem, and we’re happy to say it’s already helped other teams get through without hints! It might seem like a small thing, but suggestions like this genuinely help us improve the experience for everyone. We know it’s been a little while since your visit, but wanted to let you know that its genuinely made a difference. We don't want to add any spoilers here so feel free to drop us a DM if you're interested in what we tweaked! Thanks again for visiting and hope we'll see you again very soon for a newest adventure launching later this year!
