Just completed this with my partner. It was really good, not easily solved but excellent fun and definitely going to try the other two games! Really cleverly put together!

This is amazing. From the moment we opened the box it was completely engaging. I genuinely got goosebumps because it was so spooky.

Made for an amazing evening with my partner. The thing I loved most about this story is that once you’ve played through the puzzles, you have a fully function board game to play too! Which in itself was very fun and hilariously frustrating. The puzzles were tricky enough to be challenging but not infuriating, and the theming and story was awesome too. I hope they do more in the series like this.

I absolutely LOVED playing this, its the first escape room/ mystery experience I’ve ever done and it was brilliant. all the clues were so smart and the story was intriguing. you can tell that so much effort was put into making this game. for anyone who loves mysteries I would defiantly recommend this experience.

This was a fun mystery to solve. It wasn’t fiendishly difficult, but it did take a bit of puzzle-solving. I only had to use the online hints once for the colour puzzle as I have some colour deficiencies. I knew what I had to do; I just couldn’t see the right colours.

Brilliant! Everything was so well put together and nailed the spooky/mysterious atmosphere. Convinced me to order the other two sets right away. In meantime, we’re going to try actually playing the Ghost In The Attic game-within-a-game!
Chris (verified owner) –
Wow, that was intense! We even started talking about the characters as real people. Beautifully put together, well thought out, and engaging. We ordered our second strait after finishing the ghost in the attic.
Josh Lenton –
Amazing! The level of attention to detail in this mystery was top notch, Head was throbbing by the time we solved it but what a wonderful afternoon we had doing it.
It even has some sherlockian style clues which for us was just the icing on the cake.
Cannot wait to do the other mysteries

Absolutely fantastic! We had so much fun trying to solve the mystery and we were stumped a few times but the hints were really useful. Good family fun 🙂 Highly recommended!
Harry Ford –
An amazing experiance with great storytelling and fun puzzles. Love the spooky theme throughout and was very well crafted. Well done to Henry Lewis for doing something so different to mischief theatre!
danmartine (verified owner) –
Really inventive escape game! By far the best we have played – and the bonus of a game within the game!!!
Clare –
Components are excellent quality.
When you open the box the replica board game is actually chained up!
Similar in length & complexity to an exit game but the addition of actual physical lock boxes and padlocks is really cool and elevates the whole experience.
It is quite reliant on its own website, but it site is well done and atmospheric, puzzles are interesting and quite diverse.
Thoroughly enjoyed this one
Ellen –
brilliant game with wonderful features and a fun twist in the end. Over all an incredible game but very spooky. I am 10 and was very helpful when playing it with my family. Hope we can get some more escape rooms soon.
