Really good fun better than other escape rooms I've done
Awesome experience
What a fun way to spend an hour with three friends! The Penitentiary was perfect for four people. We managed to get out within 7 minutes - and felt very proud of ourselves. The puzzles were carefully constructed, well thought-through yet solvable (with a little help from our Game Master, Jack) We're already talking about which one to do next.
Gabriel was a fantastic Host! Great experience! Will definitely reccomand it to all friends! So much fun!
Didn’t get the text about meeting Gabriel in the bar so stood around for a lemon for fucking ages which was a waste of time. Great after that though !
Very challenging and great for a family of four ,,, splitting up in pairs amazing bonding time.
Very well done game, everything followed on, and we felt like we knew what we had to do. Brilliant game, great set up, would recommend!!!
Really good, did an early game and set the tone for the rest of the day really well!
This was a lot of fun. There were 6 of us and we did it with about 2 minutes to spare. The clues are tricky but using some common sense not too difficult. Recommended.
Professor Inkwell was brilliant! We did the murder history game as a team building exercise for the office. It worked extremely well and we will definitely participate in a game like this again. It was not easy - and we had to draw on expertise from all participants - which is great for a team building value! I personally loved the stories that came with each character - very well thought through! Thank you for a brilliant afternoon of fun!
Great fun.
Enthusiastically thrilling and creatively boggling. This was pitched just write to test the grey cells, but not bamboozle into oblivion. We loved the attention to detail and the host maintained character throughout to add to the atmosphere. Not recommended for anyone with a hearing loss as a lot relies on sound and you work in the dark with small torches, but there's a fair bit to work out by rummaging around the room nonetheless. Thank you very much for the experience - a great way to wile away an hour with friends.
Possible spoilers here: The bit with the ultra violet light - we would have liked some hand prints or something indicating where the trap door was as otherwise we wouldn't have found that (it was duct taped so looked broken and we didn't want to push it - especially as duct tape didn't fit the decor so it really did seem a fix rather than a hinge!)
Even those that could hear said they struggled with hearing the voice at times - would be great to have the words projected onto the wall for everyone but also beneficial to those with busted ears. Just an idea.
Torches were running low on juice!
We really had a good time!!! We finished just on time!!! 58mins 55sec! Very intense! Thank you Gabriel!! You are a good fella. We will recommend
