ESCAPE HUNTER ESSENTIAL INFO

Which Escape Hunt should I play?

All our Escape Hunt games are incredibly exciting and utterly immersive, so it’s impossible for us to say. Perhaps the best solution is to play them all!
If you are new to escape rooms, we would recommend A Timely Escape!
If you’ve played escape rooms before, then we would recommend The Rising Alchemist.

What is the best group size?

We think our games are ideal for groups of between two and five. If you’ve six or more who want to play then why not split into two teams and have a friendly – or indeed unfriendly – head to head competition?

What are your opening times

We’re open Mon to Saturday from 10am until 10pm and Sunday from 10am until 8:30pm.

How long does each Escape Hunt last?

The whole experience lasts around 90 minutes. You’ll spend around 60 minutes in the room (in fact that’s the maximum time you’ve got in which to escape). Before that there’s a quick briefing to explain everything, and afterwards we invite you and your group to enjoy our licensed lounge, complimentary tea and coffee and photo opportunity space.

What exactly is Escape Hunt?

Think of Escape Hunt as the closest you’re likely to get to starring in a brilliantly plotted escape movie. You and your teammates get locked in a themed room and have to find and solve a series of clues in order to escape. The pressure’s on, the clock’s ticking, the adrenaline’s pumping. Escape Hunt isn’t something you watch, it’s something you experience – right in the heart of the action. We make you earn your freedom, throwing all manner of devious and dastardly red herrings, dead ends and misdirections your way. It’s completely immersive, utterly addictive and totally entertaining. After Escape Hunt, other entertainment just feels flat.

OTHER QUESTIONS WE'RE OFTEN ASKED

Am I safe in the room?

Absolutely – our games are thrilling but never, ever dangerous. Rest assured that whatever happens, you’re in safe hands. Our game masters are highly trained and very vigilant, and as you’d expect, player safety is our number one concern.
