Had so much fun in the buried alive escape room!! Jonathon was so thorough and really enhanced our experience, would definitely recommend
Hi I experienced the “Buried alive” it was an amazing experience to do with your partner. It was a really challenging experience that was no like other escape room. We loved it and we highly recommend this place and game. 10/10 also with Dean as the best game master we ever had.
We did the buried alive escape room and managed to get out!!! With the help of the staff member watching and helping in our room. Oliver was great
Buried Alive was very challenging, but great fun. Thanks Alex!
We had a wonderful experience - our Gamemaster Alice was wonderful and helpful and helped to make our adventure with buried alive so much fun.
Had an awesome experience being buried alive with my homie. The escape room was very intense and very immersive. Alice was our game master, she handled her job with a lot of care and passion and she was so polite. I’ll certainly be coming back to try another escape room.
