Long ago you made a deal with a mysterious stranger who promised you a life of success, riches and happiness. For a time all of your dreams came true. Lately however you've been feeling empty, almost like your soul is being sucked out of you. You can't help but think that the mysterious stranger was not who he claimed to be. Could it be? You revisit the office where the deal was made with the hopes of finding a way out, but instead find yourself locked in. Will you escape? More importantly... will you escape with your soul?

We do not recommend Escape Manor in general. So disappointing in many ways. 45 min is NOT enough to finish a room! It’s the only Escape Room place where they don’t give you a whole hour and it doesn’t make sense. The “game master” wasn’t pleasant either. Their walky talkies don’t function so instead of talking through them they barge in the room to give you the clue - which takes you out of the game and atmosphere. Also, instead of a “clue”, they often tell you exactly where the clues are, so you can’t even think for yourself. And when you didn’t escape and at the end ask them to explain the puzzles, they tell you in 10 seconds and sound annoyed that you even asked. Terrible experience!

I felt like this one was a brain teaser but the puzzles were fun. I enjoyed this room.

If you love the devils advocate with Al Pacino you’ll love this room! One of my favourites!!

‘The Covenant’ nimbly tracks a course between thriller theming and the tongue-in-cheek humour of films like ‘Bedazzled’. An older-styled room with a primarily multilinear experience, the game reminds me of my early days playing escape rooms — almost 10 years ago now! With almost exclusively mechanical puzzles and some challenging connections to make, players will flourish in ‘The Covenant’ if they can engage their abstract thinking.

Gameplay

Gameplay flowed relatively well as a multilinear experience. Some puzzles weren’t clued in the most obvious way, and some weren’t exactly diegetic. A more traditional mechanical room.

Atmosphere

The room was fun with pop culture references throughout the space.

Customer service

GM was great and quick to identify when we were truly stuck in finding the way forward — we are so bad at searching!

I wish I could rate them higher- from the second you walk in, you are immersed in the most exciting environment, from the friendly staff, who you can tell genuinely love their job, to the puzzles in the waiting room, everything is executed perfectly! We got treated like absolute royalty from all the staff, every experience was so special and unique from the many other rooms we have done. There is nothing I could fault in this establishment. What a great day! I can’t think you enough for the experience
