Once inside your cabin, you get plenty of easy puzzles right from the start. In fact, I’m not even sure when the briefing ended and the game itself started. I’d experienced that before, but they’ve gone one further in this game by moving players smoothly from there direct to the game. Indeed, when we arrived they were engrossed in conversation with a group who were about to play their Alcatraz room.įrom there, you’re greeted by your GM a member of the Titanic crew and taken to the briefing area, a beautifully presented mini-theatre, complete with complimentary popcorn and Skittles. To start with, there’s an impressive waiting area (although it’s not huge, so probably best not to arrive half an hour early, as we did…) where they offer you a drink and take the time to chat. Yes, they have escape rooms, but they’re aiming to deliver an experience that’s far broader than the room itself. Would definitely do another Houdini’s escape room.I don’t think it’s an accident that Houdini’s use the term Escape Room Experience for their company.
We completed it in about 45 minutes, using one prompt (for something so obvious it was embarrassing!) But it’s difficult to say when there are six of you and a few escape room veterans. This is rated as a difficult room, and it was kind of tricky. Kept us engaged but made sure we were aware of all the health and safety. Check the date you’re going too because some times you get free pizza, although we didn’t have this.Ĭharlie was our room manager (if that’s what they’re called) and she was really good. Allow about an hour and half, you have an hour to escape but there’s admin and a briefing. Most of us have done an escape room before, but we all agreed that this was an excellent one. 6 of us did the Extinct room, the premise being that you’re sent to a remote island where communications have been down and you have figure it out and get out without being eaten by dinosaurs!
