my partner and i had never done an escape room before so we weren’t really sure what to expect but it was absolutely amazing, definitely exceeded our expectations!! we will 100% be back to do another one of enigmas rooms, we did the sweeney todd room and it was so well thought out and created, you can really tell how much effort had gone into it. special mention and thank you for our host Chris who was absolutely fantastic, he was incredibly friendly and definitely made the experience for us!
Me and my wife dod both escape rooms today. The Oz room was absolutely amazing. Best escape room we've ever done and we escaped with just 6 seconds to go! We then did the sweeney todd room. A lot creepier but really good fun. Really makes you use your brain and we escaped with 3 minutes to go. The game master, chris, was absolutely amazing. Good to chat to and gave us just enough of a nudge to get us through the rooms. I love enigma and plan to go to a lot more with my wife going forward
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5/5 – An Absolutely Fantastic Experience! We recently took on Escape from OZ at Enigma Escape Rooms, and it was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we stepped into the venue, the staff made us feel welcome and set the scene perfectly. The attention to detail in the room was incredible – the immersive set design and clever puzzles really transported us straight into the world of OZ. Each challenge flowed seamlessly into the next, keeping us on our toes and working together. The mix of logic, creativity, and just the right amount of pressure made it so much fun! What really stood out was the staff – friendly, enthusiastic, and clearly passionate about creating a memorable experience. He struck the perfect balance between giving us hints when needed without spoiling the excitement of solving things ourselves. Whether you’re a first-timer or a seasoned escape room fan, Escape from OZ is an absolute must. We laughed, we puzzled, and we cheered as we escaped – it was the highlight of our week! We’ll definitely be coming back to try the other rooms. Thank you, Enigma Escape Rooms, for an unforgettable adventure!
Went with my cousin this lunchtime to try my first ever attempt at an escape room (The wizard of OZ theme) and i was not disappointed. On arrival we were greated by a very friendly guy who explained the rules before we set off on our adventure. This escape room was very well thought out especially the lights sounds colours and decorations, we had a very challenging yet fun time and i left with a grin on my face. I would highly recommend you give this one a try it was...Brilliant!!!!!
Visited as 2 couples in November 2023. Having done a fair few escape rooms between us in recent years, I was very pleased to see one had opened so locally to us. Booking process over the phone was quick and simple, at the time of writing they offer 10% NHS discount. We all commented that this has been the best escape room we have tried so far, as we felt the challenge was set at the right level, it had lots of different elements and a very well-themed room. I also liked the fact that the host currently writes all participating teams a review of their performance on Instagram! We’re looking forward to trying more escape rooms from this company in the future.
