This is an exceptional room. There design of all puzzles has clearly had a tremendous amount of thought put into them. All puzzles with engaging, fun and relevant. The creativity used to create this room, made it a pleasure to play. The owner was very friendly and it was a pleasure to meet and chat to him about his business.

We absolutely loved the way Ransom unofficially began—it was such a unique and creative touch that set the perfect tone for the adventure ahead. While the experience is largely non-linear, there were a few bottleneck moments where we had to regroup, which provided opportunities for us to collaborate even more closely. The theming and props were top-notch, with every puzzle feeling logical and seamlessly integrated into the space. The room itself was visually impressive, showcasing great attention to detail in its design and layout. Ransom’s standout feature is undoubtedly its puzzles and game flow. With just the two of us, we were constantly on the move, working to solve a wide variety of challenges within the 60-minute time limit.

The start definitely was something of a nice touch that we hadn't seen before.
Probably the weakest part of the room, but not weak by any means.
Hard
Found it hard as a duo, still finding our feet.

Crawling may be involved at least for one of your team mates.
The venue is unfortunately top level of what looks like work apartments.

Plenty of signage

Our first visit to Social Escape was a great one! Ransom has a really cool beginning and a lot of cool and engaging puzzles. We were a little worried about the difficulty but ended up crushing it in under 38 minutes. The atmosphere and immersion could be a little stronger but we can't deny that it's a ton of fun. Will definitely be back to do the rest of their rooms.

Completed this room in a group of 2. Very immersive and gameplay flowed well. A variety of creative and interesting puzzles and the decor and set worked well to contribute to the puzzles. Very interesting start and some fun surprises in the room. Really enjoyed this room overall, would definitely recommend!

This was a relatively easy room but the puzzles flowed very well and we completed the room fairly quickly. Overall a very solid room. They give you a piece of paper with stats of your playthrough and how you stacked up to others and when you solved specific puzzles.

A fun room with an amazingly unique start that had me scratching my head for the longest time. Puzzle flow was fun and mostly linear with a few unique solutions that kept us challenged. Fun physical elements that played with levels and your idea of what you should and shouldn’t interact with in an escape room. Overall a super fun room and one of my favourites at Social Escape.
