My husband and I are huge fans of escape rooms and have done about 8 so far. The 3 best ones have all been at Escape Rooms Cardiff. Not only… read more has it seemed the best actual rooms/escape experiences, but it has also had the best staff (friendly and very helpful, without being intrusive), the best atmosphere and general set up and the best location (in my opinion).

  What a fantastic experience. Find the clues against the clock to find Sherlock Holmes. Ingenious clues to work your way to the final goal, thoroughly recommended. Great team building exercise… read more or just a fun time with friends.

  Me, my brother and his 3 children (one 16 y/o, one 13 and one 11) went for an Escape Rooms Cardiff experience on December 24, 2019. We chose the “Finding… read more Sherlock” room and had a wonderful, exciting time.

We arrived at the place 15 minutes or so before our schedule. We were warmly welcomed by the staff and were quickly given instructions. There were wire mesh lockers with padlocks where we were able to put our belongings, and toilets were also available. After watching a short video about Escape Room, which included safety instructions, we were ushered in to our room.

There was a small monitor where clues were displayed, and a timer and a light on top of the door. Red light means the door is closed; green means the door is open, you can escape, game over. The room was spacious for all five of us to move around, finding clues. It was well thought-of and cleverly designed and put together and all of us had fun solving the mystery!

We had a picture taken for souvenir when we got out of the room and were given badges for escaping! Everybody totally enjoyed the experience and my nephews and niece, even my brother, were all raving about it even after we’ve reached home. I’m so glad I thought of booking this!

  Booked to do “the tomb” however, on arrival it was explained there had been miss communication and we would not be able to use this room.
To my… read more delight, the very kind gentleman explained he had allocated another room to us ( The Heist) which was much appreciated (having never done one before we were all very excited).
We had great fun in the room, the theming was excellent and very realistic.
Having never done one before we didn’t really know what to expect but it was such a great way to make everyone work together.
I thoroughly enjoyed the whole experience and I could not fault it in anyway! 10/10!! (I think we have caught the escape room bug, we will be back) More

My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her birthday treat so much that we fully intend on returning when you’re open after the shut down enforced by the welsh government, if you’ve never been to an escape room I would highly recommend this place as the whole experience and the staff are amazing, we can’t wait to come back, it’s all my daughter has been talking about with her friends at how amazing and great it was, you made someone’s birthday very special so I can’t thank you enough and we will see you all again as soon as we can to pit our wits against another room !!

  Me and my 3 other friends recently returned to play The Tomb, after escaping the chilling Oculus game earlier this year.



Ayleena, (our game master for The Tomb) was… read more kind enough to display the clues that we had already found on screen to help us keep track of our progress. She was also quick to point out that we’d already completed one task without realising it. Without her eagle eyed observation, we wouldn’t have advanced to the next section and escaped.

Both rooms we’ve played are brilliantly made and look incredible! I can’t praise them or the staff enough. We cannot wait to come back! 🙂

Thanks to all the staff who were all very welcoming and helpful! See you all again soon!

  Great day out, with my daughters and granddaughters. Everyone contributed and worked as a team. Lovely guy explained all the do’s and dont’s. can’t wait to go again and try… read more another room

  Having been to this place since August 2019 our party of 6 has thought this place comtains game rooms with a range of difficulties. From the simplest of rooms to… read more the most difficult one, we had thoroughly enjoyed our time. Things we liked about each room include:
– Tomb: nice and simple room to get you started
– Sherlock: chess board and bank notes
– Heist: the 2 team split twist
– Z: the logic puzzle with the green and red lights.
– Press start: crawling into the room
– Oculus: finding the codes in the second room

Would love it if this place does a 6 month rotation of game rooms so there’ll be more challenges in the future. Clues do genuinely arrive at the right time and whenever we get stuck if you ask them. They’ll give you (if it’s at the right time of course).

Highly recommend!!

  Fantastic hour spent solving problems within The Tomb looking for Howard Carter.
Well worth a visit.
