Prison Escape Game
BOOK NOW

Welcome to Prison X, the UK’s top-notch, all-you-can-eat buffet of security! It's so secure that the walls probably chuckle at the thought of an escape. So far, only one brave soul has cracked the code and made a break for it—Trevor Ashcroft. Rumor has it he left behind a treasure map of clues, but we suspect he might just be lounging on a beach somewhere, sipping piña coladas.


Now, if you're seven years old and ready for a crawl-fest like no other, this is your ticket out! Whether you’re celebrating a hen party, a stag do, or even your birthday (because who doesn’t want a dash of prison within their celebrations?!), we’ve got you covered. Just bring your sense of adventure—and maybe a snack or two because crawling can be hungry work.


With a difficulty rating of 4.5/5, it’s like trying to unlock a stubborn jar of pickles—challenging but totally worth it. So, are you bold enough to channel your inner Trevor and become the second-ever escape artist? The clock is ticking—let’s see if you can pull off what only one person has managed to do (and hopefully, you won’t end up on the lam like him)!

Sam Saloon Escape Game
BOOK NOW

Welcome to Sam's Saloon, where the drinks flow faster than gossip at a family reunion and wheeling and dealing is the unofficial second sport of the county! Seriously, if you’re not here, you might as well be back in the Stone Age.


Now, let's chat about Sam. The guy's got a reputation that could scare a rabid raccoon. The county sheriff thinks he’s high and mighty, like he’s got a golden ticket to immunity. Spoiler alert: he doesn’t!


Perfect for ages 7 and up (because we like to keep the future criminals young and sprightly).

No crawling involved—unless you're chasing after your drink, then all bets are off!

Hen parties, stag do's, and birthdays welcome—just bring your best party shoes and a sense of humour (the bigger the better!).

Difficulty rating? A whopping 4 out of 5—so you might want to bring a couple of brainiacs with you. And with room for 8 players, you can even invite the cousin who always tries to beat you at family games.


You've got 60 minutes to channel your inner action hero, disarm a bomb, recover the gold, and escape the saloon. Think you've got what it takes? If you don’t, well... let’s just say you’ll be the talk of the town for all the wrong reasons! Good luck, partner!





The Basement Escape Game
BOOK NOW

Welcome to Dolls House, where facing your fears is the main course and you’re the main dish!


Your childhood nightmares didn’t get the memo that growing up meant they had to pack their bags and leave. Nope, it’s time to give them a one-way ticket out by taking a good, hard look into their beady little eyes and laying down some truth—no sugarcoating allowed!


Prepare yourself to crack riddles and unveil mysteries that have been your sleep-deprived companions—because who needs beauty rest anyway?


Step right in if you dare! Just remember to bring your bravery, a snack (because emotional munching can work wonders), and maybe a teddy bear for those unpredictable moments.


Oh, did we mention? This is strictly an adults-only shindig (16+ only—sorry, tiny humans!). Whether it’s a hen do, stag party, or birthday bash, we’ve got room for you. A little heads-up: we do have strobe lighting, perfect for those who enjoy an impromptu rave—but if you’re the kind who prefers not to revisit last night’s dinner, give us a holler during booking!


As for the challenge level? Think of it as a solid 4/5—like trying to assemble IKEA furniture while blindfolded and with one hand. And hey, if you’re expecting or have heart issues, you might want to sit this one out; there are plenty of other ways to get your adrenaline fix without risking a trip to the hospital!

Xtinction Escape Game
BOOK NOW

**A Deserted Island: The Ultimate Survival Showdown!**


Welcome to your vacation of a lifetime—minus the actual vacation part! Imagine this: a deserted island, just you, some questionable wildlife, and a whole lot of time to ponder your life choices. Who or what might you run into here? Is that a wild boar or just your old gym coach?


Your rich benefactor—let’s call him Uncle Moneybags—has roped you into this exciting expedition. He’s convinced this island is a treasure trove of lost data, left behind by his eccentric grandpappy who thought he was inventing the next big thing... which turned out to be a pet rock.


But here’s the kicker: you’ve only got 60 minutes to explore before the helicopter buzzes off like it’s late for brunch, leaving you stranded 200 miles from civilization! Honestly, your chances of survival will plummet faster than the fruit from that tree when you poke it too hard.


Can you escape the clutches of this island in time, or are you destined to be the next castaway?


**Suitable for ages 7 and up (because let’s face it, adults have enough problems).**

**This adventure comes with partial darkness—perfect for scaring your friends!**

**Hen parties, Stag Do's and Birthday parties welcome—because nothing says “happy birthday” like potential doom!**

  • **Difficulty Rating: 3/5 (level of difficulty may vary depending on how much cake you had)
