Mystery Cube – London, England After experiencing my first ever escape room in Budapest, I arrived back home in the UK with a taste for more. Following some online investigation, I noticed that the newly opened Mystery Cube in London was offering a discount for early birds and as such I promptly booked a slot.…
Magic Cellar @ ExitPoint – Eger, Hungary Not having planned to do an escape game on our first day in Hungary, the Magic Cellar was a spontaneous choice. Not much of a choice, since it’s the only escape room in the historical town of Eger, however walking past the entrance proved too much to resist.…
Wicklewood Room @ Claustrophilia – Budapest, Hungary For exit game enthusiasts such as ourselves, the unconventional start to this game didn’t faze us too much, however I think beginners may have been confused. After being buzzed into the building we were then left to fend for ourselves, with only a piece of paper to direct…
Psycho Killer Room @ TimeTrap – Budapest, Hungary Opting to do the psycho killer room over the prison break room gave me a sense of apprehension about this game. Definitely NOT a fan of the gruesome Saw films I much prefer creepy and spooky over terror. Our game host played his part very well, advising…
Madness Room @ ExitPoint – Budapest, Hungary Having completed our previous game in record time, we went into our final room feeling confident, though not cocky (as this usually guarantees a loss). Being a mental health nurse, ‘madness’ is my speciality and I felt at home surrounded by the straight jackets in this ‘psych ward’…
Terrible Circus @ E-Exit – Budapest, Hungary This was the fourth game in our ‘escape tour’ of Hungary. A circus themed room which I was especially looking forward to. This game ranks highly in my all-time favourites as it was interactive, colourful and busy. I like to get my hands on all the props and…
We took on the Indiana Room at Room Escape Warsaw. The game took on an Indiana Jones tomb theme. The staff were friendly and enthusiastic and helped create a sense of excitement before we entered the room. The room itself was well decorated and had a good mix of puzzles. Clues were presented on a…
After a very late night, and in a delicate state, we made our way to Warsaw Horror House – a pre-war cellar in Warsaw’s old town. Any plans to appear nonplussed by the situation were abandoned within seconds of entering. Each of us clung on to the man in front of him, shuffling through the…
TRAP Budapest was out first ever escape room experience. Located in an old cellar, the setting befitted the game theme “Secret of the Tomb”. Upon entering the final chamber, you could almost believe you were actually in an ancient tomb. There are three other games available, “The bomb room”, “The Egypt Room” and “The Medieval…
Poznan is a city of about 550,000 people, on the Warta river, in west-central Poland. Famed for it’s lively nightlife and cheap beer, this seemed the perfect destination for four 30 some-things desperately clinging on to their “backpacking” youth. The trip had many highlights, including the ubiquitous cellar bars and quirky night-life on ul.Taczaka Street,…
