Really good escape room / challenge. Enjoyed it a lot.

Good immersion, not too heavy on the horror & fright side so you’re not constantly distracted by the fact someone or something may creep out on you.

Good props and atmosphere and the puzzles are challenging without being hugely difficult.

Host really nice and professional, would recommend this to anyone who enjoys having a bit of fun for an hour in a dark room.

Really enjoyed the whole experience. It was my first escape room and loved every minute. Host was great and made everyone very relaxed. Puzzles were challenging but not too tricky.

A great enjoyable hour. We had never tried an escape room before and took a while to get an understanding, but whizzed through towards the end. Another 5 or so minutes and we'd have probably solved everything. Gabriel was great and helpful (but not too helpful). Finding things and solving challenging problems added to the enjoyment.

Do you look for authenticity when embarking a room escape game? Than this one is for you. The mood, the props and the story line engulf you within a world of its own. Gabriel sets the appropriate tone in enticing you to get in the right mood. Even though we did not manage to get out in time (just for a tiny teeny bit) we both feel that it has been indeed an absolute delight and we highly recommend the game to all those who are looking for the real!

We visited Lady Chastity's Reserve at the Hope pub in Farringdon and played as a team of four. The decoration of the room is spot on and the puzzles are all logical and well signposted. This game engages a good sense of humour and had us roaring with laughter on a few occasions. Our host, Gabriel, guided us perfectly. Thoroughly enjoyable. Highly recommend.

Brilliant time! Our first escape room and the whole experience was great atmospheric fun which exceeded all expectations. Our host Gabriel created a sense of mystery and charm. The room provided challenge however we completed our task just within the hour.

Great experience, I’d never done an escape room in the dark before so that added to the difficulty. Creative use of space and lots of clues that can be easily missed.

Great, would highly recommend. It could have been better if we had been taken up earlier to the room before the hour escape began. As it took a while to get our coats hung up and hear the backstory which ate into our searching hour.

Fantastically frightful fun! Really enjoyed it- many thanks to Gabriel for trying to help us, alas we were beyond it! Highly recommended, having played (and won) a few other rooms this was the most fun!

Amazing! What a fun way to spend the evening. We did this as a couple, an hour goes really fast and we would probably have gotten further if there were 4 of us. Will definitely do again.


FAQ

WHAT'S ALL THIS ABOUT THEN?

Our games are live immersive experiences. Solve clues with your friends, family, colleagues, lovers or strangers. Working together against a ticking sandtimer. Bring on your wittiest explorer chums if you wish to succeed. You can discover more about each of our different games under ‘games’ on our menu bar.

WHERE IS IT?

Our games are based at premium pubs across London and Brighton. We currently have two Lady Chastity game rooms at the The Four Thieves near Clapham Junction, one game room in the The Peoples Park Tavern in Hackney, one game room at The Hope in Farringdon, and another at The World’s End pub in Brighton. Two Poppa Plock game rooms are at the Depot Pub in Islington.

Our street games are based at St James of Bermondsey in London and the Walrus Pub in Brighton.

WILL I ENJOY IT?

Yes, unless you don’t like fun. It is a unique experience and one that will stay with you for a long time. If you are looking for a fun group activity that’s slightly different, this is for you.

WHAT ARE YOUR ESCAPE ROOMS SIMILAR TO?

Dubbed ‘The Crystal Maze on Crystal Meth’, our dark and comedic tales are the first of their kind. Combining the immersive theatre of Punchdrunk and Secret Cinema productions, with the fun challenges of ‘Escape Room’ games. More like an ‘escapism room’. Players could liken it to shows like The Crystal Maze, The Cube, Saw series, Prison Break, Fort Boyard, The Mole, The Amazing Race, The Great Escape, and Knightmare.

WHAT IS AN ESCAPE GAME?

Wikipedia Def: An escape room is a physical adventure game in which players are locked in a room and have to use elements of the room to solve a series of puzzles and escape within a set time. If you can remember the Crystal Maze you won’t be far off.

HOW HARD IS THE GAME?

Whilst none of our games are easy to win, you do not need any special ‘skills’ to advance through the game, a very basic level of English and numbers should be enough. Common sense goes a lot further than intelligence, and those with strong teamwork and bags of enthusiasm are often the most likely to succeed. We may also throw in the odd clue if you look as though you are about to wet your pants.

WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED NUMBER OF PLAYERS PER TEAM?

Our escape rooms are designed for around 2-6 players. 2 people is the minimum required. Around 4-5 people is an ideal amount. Your team will have the whole place to your filthy selves.

Our street games are designed for around 2-5 players with 3-4 being the optimum.

Larger groups can split into different teams and compete for the fastest time.
