What visitors say
From the moment we rang the doorbell to stepping back out onto the street, Lewis was a fabulous host. Welcoming, friendly and professional, even in and out of character. The fact that there is that creative character to immerse you into the escape room was very fun and a brilliant way to change up the every day escape room concepts, especially when they are as good as Lewis's deliverance. We was a team of 4 which was a perfect size for us, the games were brilliantly executed and without giving anything away, the room was perfectly designed so every item in that room looked like part of the escape rooms game design. 10/10 and you definitely hooked us to return for the other games.

If you love detailed, immersive escape rooms, go to The Escapement. As someone who works in escape rooms, I was amazed by the quality and effort that was put into the Pirate Ship room. Our Swashbuckling host Tom was warm, friendly and constantly stayed in character throughout the experience. We finished in 40 minutes and Tom gave us a walk through about the mechanics of the room with some Pirate facts which was really interesting and engaging. I will be returning to play the other games there since it is definitely worth the time and money! Thank you Tom!

The Pit was my first ever escape room, and I wasn't disappointed!! Ashley was a real diamond who talked us through the experience and answered any questions we had (and gave lots of reassurance!) Was nice to get performance feedback after completion, will definitely go back and try the other rooms!! Two of us completely it in 77 minutes 😁

We did our first ever escape room here on Saturday and Matt was our guide. At first was a little nervous it might be too complicated but it amazing fun! Matt was so funny and gave us some subtle help to guide us through, such a well thought out puzzle and the time flew by, thoroughly enjoyed our first escape room!!
