I quite liked that you can start with those to mentally get ready while you wait. The person who worked there was very nice and answered all our questions with a smile. He introduced us to the game in which we would be finding the Holy Grail by solving puzzles set up by 'Da Vinci' himself. The puzzles were really inventive and I won't spoil it, but one moment in the game feels like magic. I have done a bunch of the escape games in London, but the challenges in this one felt fresh and fun and there was some real originality. I found the room challenges to be fairly straightforward and clear and the Da Vinci theme was well-done. We only asked for one hint and finished with 11 minutes to spare, so I think the difficulty level was perfect for us. I particularly liked the physical games just because they were quite fun, but all of them were good and there was a fair amount of all types of puzzles. Love Popups London gave me the opportunity to try this game and I definitely got lucky, it was one of the best in London that I have tried! The production values were excellent and the problems were varied and fun to solve. I would definitely recommend this game!

It will be the quickest 60 minutes of your life. Your team will work together to determine whether the clues you find are going to lead to your escape, or whether they are just a red herring put there to distract you.

I was invited to play Komnata's Doctor Frankenstein room by Love Popups London the other day. The…read moreroom's premise is quite simple, the Professor has been trying to create artificial life, but just as he was close to a breakthrough, he has gone missing. We have one hour to unravel the mystery of what happened to him. The room itself has a very steampunk feel to it, which is really well done with lots of details and decorations. It's a bit dark in the beginning, as finding the light source is part of the game, but once you've gotten past this first hurdle, it's a quite well lit room with lots to discover. The storyline is very linear with lots of hints and instructions built into the room itself, which makes it very suitable for beginners, younger players, or couples. Children from 12 years are allowed to play this room without adult supervision, and it would definitely be solvable for a group of teenagers. So many different puzzles, riddles and clever machinery are part of this room, we didn't feel bored or stuck for a second and blasted through the plot in just 34 minutes. As all four of us have played A LOT of escape rooms though, we didn't think it was too easy at all. As experienced players I would just recommend having less players on your team. An experienced couple will likely get a good 45+ minutes out of this gorgeous room. The props and decorations all looked really well done, well placed, and within theme. A very solid room that was a lot of fun to play! I just wish there was a little more to do so we could have stayed in it longer as it was just so enjoyable!

Sometimes I'm weary of live actors, but they integrated their live actor/game host well. Ford, I believe her name was (or Gabriel, in line with the character everyone meets) was fabulous and fun. This was also the first time I've played a room where you win a bottle of wine and it was located in a bar establishment. That alone was well worth it! I've consider this room to be a first generation room (no tech), but they did a solid job. Escape rooms have become more and more elaborate, but if you can make a solid first generation room, I'd take that over finicky tech based rooms. It was dark, however, but you do get flashlights. Also, it's a creepy room and my group and I hate creepy, but it was a lot of fun for my group and I. Can't think of any jump scares. I'd definitely recommend them and would love to be back for more!

You can gather and chill in the Four Thieves pub downstairs and wait for Gabriel to find you. You'll easily recognise him by his old timey garb and creepy stare. This escape room has an actual storyline you have to follow, a bit like those classic adventure games. Randomly searching for clues isn't as helpful as it is in most other escape rooms as only the storyline will help unlock the clues. The room is really well done, very dark and moody, slightly creepy but not too scary. Decor and props are fantastically made, the room tends to get quite hot though, so be aware of that when you dress for the day. The clues and riddles make sense and are all solvable if you stay on track. Overall a really good experience, would definitely recommend this one!

For this visit we got to check out two of their three escape rooms.. Escape the Seven Seas and also Taken. Both of these rooms provide a totally different experience and I would definitely be interested in coming back to do the witchcraft and wizardry one too. As a group of experienced players we still found the clues both challenging and fun to complete.. Kris our games master was on hard to provide help if we needed it.. As the competitive streak within all of us we wanted to see if we could get on the leaders board.. So close yet so far!! 46mins for the escape the Seven Seas and Taken in 35 mins.. Would definitely recommend a visit especially for a big group as you can all tackle a different room to share your experiences.

Courtesy of Love Pop Ups London, I got to try out Escape London's Escape The Seven Seas room as…read morewell as their Taken room at the Shadwell location, and what a ride it was! Both rooms were very well designed with lots of puzzles and challenges in them. I have more elaborate reviews on my blog, but for this platform I will stick with brevity. Seven Seas has a pirate theme in which our team had to escape from prison cells, find the captain's chamber, discover the treasure and then flee before being discovered by the pirates. The room is unfortunately very dimly lit, which makes using the combination locks quite challenging, but the challenges in the room itself are really well done and so much fun to work on. In Taken, we had to rescue our friend "Bob" from the clutches of a serial killer. Again, the room is really well designed and super fun to work through. Some of the gimmicks were outstanding, other could do with being polished up a bit. Taken is definitely a more streamlined and high-pressure room, while Seven Seas is more immersive and sticks to its theme with fierce dedication, but both were a lot of fun to play. A very enjoyable experience, I definitely recommend this escape room company, they know what they're doing!

A pro-active puzzle solving game where you and your team mates impersonate detectives that need to find a key witness in hiding. While I enjoyed playing this game I thought it was quite hard to understand the bigger picture of it. We were about 12 people and for me it was maybe too big of a group for the game. I would advise a 8 to 10 people group for an easier organisation and team work. I would highly recommend this game for a team building corporate event as it forces to works on your communication, organisational and logistic skills!

THE STORY This escape room is based on the Luftwaffe attack on Britain back on August 18th, 1940. We are the only survivors of the first wave of the bombing and we must strategize how to mobilize our full force of RAF to save London and successful bomb the enemies. We have an hour before they will attack again! HIT THE BULLSEYE -All the puzzles were unique in this room. They were all relevant to the storyline and very entertaining to solve. -The entire room was not linear so our group each had our glory moment to be proud of for solving a different puzzle. The great thing was that we still had a chance to come together for the end. -The "centerpiece" of the room was an impressive design. -The urgency was felt as game progressed, much like the story line. -Great mixture of combo locks and tech (only used at places that made sense). -Unusual way of "winning" the game. -Props used were all related to the timeline of the story. -Love the flow and the "flow tracking device". MISSED THE MARK -The hint system could be a bit off due the various number of puzzles being solved by different players at the same time. The game master's camera may not be able to clearly see the status of all the puzzle solving at one time. Maybe create a laser pointer that can be controlled from the control room to point to the puzzle that's being hinted on. -If only a bit more of a "wow" element could be added to the ending, this would have had a perfect finish! TAKE A SHOT? This is a great game to demonstrate that a room does not have to have an insane amount of tech or crazy movie set like set designs in order to be an awesome escape room. We felt immersed in the storyline and puzzles that none of the "fancy" additions mattered. If you love a challenge with tons of puzzles and want to test how you can work alone and/or with a team, you'll truly enjoy this room.

So you may by now experienced one or two at least escape rooms as these within the last few years…read morehas been popping all over the town. So how does one stand out from another? This is the question I keep asking myself and I guess I will only find out by testing as many of them as I can. Gladly of course. Myself and a couple of friends Bianca and Jamie (a few pulled out last minute) tried out Escape Plan's room. The room is based in the barracks of a P.O.W camp and you and your comrades (lets get into character here) have 60 minutes to escape! The story starts when you enter the room and you find out that only one person has ever escape, Bob Hails and to help you, he has written a journal which you find.  Once inside the room, you are faced with riddles, locks and puzzles which you have to solve. The one thing I like about this room is that each clue is linked to a particular lock, so this means that there can be lots of people to solve different parts of the clues within the room. As a three person group we felt there was more than enough things to keep us challenged. The game master is always watching as he tells you before you enter and will always help you out if he feels that you are struggling. I also love that every prop they have inside the room are real artefacts from the 1940 so please handle with care... apparently someone has dropped a real grenade once and I don't know why anyone would think of dropping that! The one thing which I think is very important to mention is that this room is very accessible to those with mobility issues, theres a lift to the room as well as enough space for a wheelchair to manoeuvre so definitely a plus in my books. I think as a group of three we was all challenged to partake in every part of the game and we escaped with just over 14 minutes to spare, I think the different level of experienced we had really helped and working together is very important. I think no more that 4 people would be a reasonable number to play this room without over filing with players. I visited this room with LovePopUp London and while the experience was kindly gifted to us by Escape Planall my reviews are my own and I would definitely rate this room a 4* out of 5. I really enjoyed the different clues and also the final puzzle was definitely one to experience!
