We’ve had 3,623 teams take on our 1950’s challenge, and in all of those games only 20 teams have completed before the 30 minute mark and win themselves a free game. Tonight we had our 21st. Congratulations guys, you are awesome! Who might be the 22nd? #escaperoom #excitingescapes #basingstoke

We hosted our first large team building event at the new Portsmouth site yesterday and got this fabulous feedback for the team. If you're thinking of a similar thing, or perhaps for a Christmas social, give us a call ! 023 92666831

Our 3rd Portsmouth room is now live! That means we now have a pair of identical 1920s 'Dark Deeds and Groceries' experiences. Now you can bring two teams and race :-)

This fab set of teams from WH Smiths just went head to head in our two identical 1950’s based missions in Basingstoke and did a sterling job! You guys were so much fun and we hope to see you for another one soon! #StationeryWontHelpYouNow

Its the time you have all been waiting for! Southampton August leaderboards are up! Some fantastic times, some questionable team names...... What an amazing summer we have had! Don't forget to tag yourselves!

With two new rooms in our flagship Portsmouth branch up and running our first few teams towards the end of August certainly did have an Exciting Escape! A huge congratulations to The Waydunns who topped both our leaderboards after an impromptu back to back code cracking session! We can't wait to see more teams and open more rooms through September, will you rise to the challenge?? 🏆🕵🏻🔎🕵🏻‍♀️🏆

The team from The Southampton Guide came to play our 2050's game 'Spies in Space' mission. See what they thought of their time in out of space! https://thesouthamptonguide.com/exciting- escapes-space-roo…/

Bit grey and rainy this morning! Need something to do? We still have a few space for later today, and for the Bank Holiday weekend :-)

User

Opening week for our first room in Portsmouth :-) Just finished testing and the 1960's experience 'Murder at the Movies' is working perfectly! We can't wait to greet the first customers coming in from Wednesday

User

Struggling for ideas of what to do today? You are in luck my friend! We have a couple of available games this afternoon for that last minute booking! Click on the link and give us a call!

User

One week to go till the first room in our new Portsmouth site is open! Plenty of long days being worked, so you can imagine getting feedback like this from the weekend make it all seem worthwhile :-)

User

This team of daring detectives were brave enough to tackle three of our rooms in Basingstoke today! They not only lived to tell the tale they have also potentially bagged themselves slots on all three leaderboards!!!! #leaderboardhattrick #teamoftheday #maybetheyarerealspies

🚨🚨Basingstoke Teams🚨🚨 there are a few road closures in town today, make sure you leave yourself enough time to make your journey!

User

Great to get a mention in the local press this weekend :-)

User

After the long, hot spell it looks like we are in for some cloud and rain. If only there was something more fun to do on a wet day than just jumping in puddles.......

User

What an a amazing time I had here Wednesday. I have never done anything like this before, but the staff where so welcoming and the room lay out was absolutely amazing. Enjoyed myself that much im already plan our next one. I would highly recommend this to anyone xx

User

Went on Saturday evening having never been before and not knowing what to expect. The agents were very helpful especially as we had trouble solving the first few clues. Once we got into it it was fabulous, lots of fun and I certainly would like to try another room.

User

So much fun. The staff were so lovely and really bought into the whole show. They were there to help us when we were stuck but not give the answers away! Highly recommend, loads of adrenaline!

User

Really enjoyed our escape! Our group had varying levels of escape room experience but everyone enjoyed it. We'll be back another time to tackle another one �

User

Not really sure what to expect, but we loved it. The hour went so quickly. Room theming is great, the challenges are a mixture of being easy to very challenging. We didn't managed to solve the final puzzle but came so close I reckon another 10 minutes and we would have got it. First time and it was a great way to spend an hour will definitely be back to try the other rooms. Highly recommend.

User

Last Saturday we did the 3rd room in basingstoke and were not disappointed. We had such great fun and are now looking forward to the new rooms coming later in the year, can’t wait to do them. The experience is thoroughly recommended.

User

Just completed the third room (have done both of the others in the past) and loved it just as much. Brilliant ideas and staff to make the day great fun and leaving you wanting to try the next room! Thank you agent Chloe for all the help!

I initially booked an experience for my partner and I for his 30th birthday on the 2nd March. The morning of, due to the extreme weather conditions, we got a phone call from them to say that they don’t offer refunds, however due to the weather they were happy to reschedule for us, which is the option we chose.

We rebooked the experience for the 31st March, and added two friends on to the booking to come with us, and we didn’t need to pay for them until on the day.



None of us had ever done an escape room before, so we had no idea what to expect but were excited to give it a good go and my goodness were we blown away!



We arrived a little late due to traffic, so ended up only having 45 minutes in the room, and having to miss out on the briefing video. We were quickly walked through the premise of the game, and were given a brief by “Agent Smith” who was very professional, and despite my numerous attempts to crack jokes and make her break character, took it all in her stride.



The room was well laid out and the challenges ranged from easy to rather difficult. The main struggle we had being millennial trying to work out a phone from 1957!



The staff were on the ball, and quickly rectified a small issue that we had before we even realised it was an issue, “Agent Jake” was very helpful in giving us a little nudge in the right direction with a puzzle we’d got mostly right, and we ended up completing the room with just under 3 minutes to spare! Add the extra 15 minutes on we would have had if we weren’t late and we completed the room in under 45 minutes.



All 4 of us left having had an absolute whale of a time, and the whole experience was a common theme in our conversations over the rest of the weekend!



Being a group of introverts, we relished in the fact we were able to get on with it in our own time and our own way, and glad we weren’t lumped in with another group in order to maximise numbers and revenue. We will 100% be booking to come again and tackle the other rooms and will be recommending the company to anyone who will listen!



The staff were friendly, professional and helpful. The rooms were well laid out and the whole venue was clean and tidy (although the room wasn’t so tidy after we’d finish!) and considering it was a test of time, we didn’t feel rushed at all and were allowed to stand in the room, have a chat about the room, give feedback and debrief without feeling like they needed us out.



Can’t speak high enough of the company, the staff and the experience!!

User

I did it for my birthday with some friends. It was so much fun and the staff were so friendly and helpful. We really got immersed in the experience. Will definitely be doing it again!

User

Had an awesome time and thoroughly recommend it. ‘Agent Charlie’ was a great host and hope to go again soon for a different room to escape from!

User

Had an amazing first visit today and will definitely be returning! The experience was such fun and everyone in our group loved it. We all got stuck in! The theming was so good, so many little details had been thought about and the set up was impressive. Would recommend to everyone.

User

Had a great time today at Basingstoke escape room for my sons birthday treat. First time for us all but fantastic fun and something a bit different. Cannot wait to try another room �

User

First experience of an escape room and we absolutely loved it. Brilliant fun, friendly and professional staff and great value. We will be back!!

User

Experienced my first ever escape room tonight. Wasn't sure what to expect and felt a little apprehensive wondering if I'd manage to figure out the clues.

I needn't have worried, the room was set out well and the puzzles were exciting and varied. The time flew by and we had so much fun. We managed to solve the puzzle with just over a minute to spare! It's so easy to get stuck in and involved with what you're doing, we can't wait to attend another room for our next adventure. Thank you so much for making it a fun and exciting experience. We will see you again soon!! Highly recommended.

User

Excellent experience, really great fun and would high recommend. Will definitely be returning soon

User

Excellent Room. This is the second I have done and I certainly be back to do another!!

User

Done it in a group of four and was hard but so much fun. Would 100% recommend and will go back to do the other rooms. Staff were friendly and really lovely.

User

Can't recommend this place enough, loved every minute of it, looking forward to trying the other rooms. Staff were fab at setting the scene and engaging with us only when we needed a bit of help. Definitely worth a visit.

User

Brilliant! Nail biting experience. Team came together wonderfully & our ‘assistant’ was fab. Highly recommend for an hour of fun team building!
