The great Hyde Circus was once an exciting and jaw dropping show but now, there are no ticket sales, crowds or queues. As the new Director, you’ve heard rumours of foul play so you sneak into the performers trailer to find out what could be going on. Is the circus cursed or will you uncover a secret the performers have been trying to bury all these years?

Saturday night’s adventure took us back to Labyrinth, where we tackled another of their rooms. This was my fourth experience at the venue, and it’s easy to see why we keep returning. From the staff to the rooms and the way the Gamemasters run things, Labyrinth consistently delivers an excellent overall experience and it's clear that we never have a dull or unpleasant moment. CirCurse was a lot of fun, even though it’s on the older side compared to some of the rooms we’ve played recently. Despite that, I felt fully immersed as if we were stepping into the circus world rather than standing in the middle of busy Parramatta. The props, lighting, sound design, and puzzles all fit perfectly within the theme, each one enhancing the immersion and pulling us deeper into the experience.

Don't try and go on a night Parramatta is playing, parking was a nightmare

There's a lot to do in this room, you can start from any of the 5 puzzles when you start this room. There is a little of bit of guesswork needed to figure out which prop is needed for what puzzle and some things are easy to miss if you don't look everywhere in the room. The puzzles were good but some lacked a little direction in which you were supposed to solve them. The story seemed to be a lost very quickly through the game, you are told the synopsis at the start and then only at the end do you find out the answer, which is quite abrupt. There was one puzzle which did not function correctly and the gamemaster had to give us the next prop to proceed. Overall this is a good room with good aesthetics and good puzzles.

An old fashioned mechanical room. Nicely themed. Fun puzzles. Storyline started okay but got a bit hard to follow by the end. Still a worthwhile room experience. Sound isolation between escape rooms was poor and we could hear the game master speaking to the group next door and their sounds. If you do this room, binaural hearing is essential to work out where to go next.

Gameplay
Atmosphere

Great old school puzzle designs. Low tech and fantastic. Sound isolation from adjacent escape rooms was poor. We could hear the group next door and when the GM spoke to them, we thought the GM was speaking to us.

Customer service

GM running two rooms at once instead of just one room. This was a first for us and was a bit distracting at times.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

Story

We all got to end a bit lost on the plot. The puzzles were good and interesting but were not sure where the story took us in the end.

Difficulty

Hard

We find this hard to judge in our group. Not the hardest room around but we can see how some puzzles may stump people.

Accessibility

Hard for hearing impaired. The constant background music & the noise from the next room were distracting. Completing a puzzle didn’t clearly show what happened as a result, so we had to follow the sound of a click to work out what had changed. This is difficult with hearing impairment.
