Mark as done to rate

In the dimly lit back alleys of the bustling city, chaos ensues as Don Banano, the larger-than-life mob boss, finds himself in a pickle when his prized fortune is stolen... pointing the finger at none other than Marv the Monkey from the local circus, Banano threatens to rain on everyone's parade by shutting down the beloved spectacle unless his fortune magically reappears. But fear not, for you, the unlikely hero, are thrust into this wacky whirlwind of mayhem. Your mission, should you choose to accept it (and you kinda have to), is a madcap medley of mischief. You must venture into the zany world of Marv's Circus, and try to wrangle Marv himself, retrieve the fortune, and maybe even unmask the real culprit... Armed with nothing but your wits you embark on a bizzare escapade where every wrong turn leads to another hilarious hijink. With Don Banano hot on your trail and the clock ticking like a time bomb made of rubber chickens, you must channel your inner circus clown and save the day before the big top comes crashing down. So grab your popcorn and hold onto your seat, because this circus caper is about to get wilder than a barrel of monkeys on roller skates!

This is such a fun room - the carnival aspects have all been cleverly built into the game and the puzzles as well. Also a collection game alongside to add to the fun. A great mixture of mental and tactile puzzles as well - this is definitely one to do with the kids who will love it.

Lots of fun and great theme and props in room. We liked that it was full of locks but also a collection game.

Superb game. We were saving this room as a celebration of our 20th wedding anniversary today and it did not disappoint. All Escapable rooms are superb and this is different again and so much fun. Enjoyed every minute, combining a physical element with some great puzzles that all made sense. Great hosting from our GM Charlotte too which helped make it another to remember. Highly recommended for all levels.

Another fantastic room from Escapable. They really are pushing boundaries with their games, and each new opening offers another brilliant trip through their worlds. Marv is definitely designed for families. We played as a couple and there are so many puzzles and mini games that is easy to see this keeping a family of four entertained for an hour.

We have done all the rooms at Escapeable and were delighted to hear they were opening up a new room and knew in advance it wasn’t going to disappoint given the excellence of all the others they have designed! Marv was so much fun and is certainly within our Top 5 alongside The Great Loudini and Outatime! Marv was enjoyable and had lots of elements to it that are different to other escape rooms we have played. There is also a collector element to the game which was a fun addition! Incredible set design and fun storyline that kept me and my husband hooked! I can honestly say Escapable keep excelling and I look forward to what they have planned in the future. The owner Tom is fantastic and our GM - Hannah who ran Marv was also really energetic and set the scene to the room perfectly. Marv is certainly a 10/10 and would highly recommend to anyone!
