Latest reviews of scary escape rooms in Edinburgh

Played the Ritual game on Thursday. It was a fabulous room! The decor, the puzzles and the story are all amazing! I even loved the use of up-cycled items to make some of the props. Really fab job!

The games master David and Stephen were absolutely lovely and so friendly!

Had an amazing time ! Me and two friends completed Ritual (20 minutes late but nonetheless). Stephen and Alex were our super helpful game masters, would definitely recommend and come again!

Loved playing the most recent escape room addition, The Ritual! Me and my friends had an awesome time (even though the room was more difficult than we anticipated)

Our game master, Stephen, really set the scene beforehand! (can't stress enough how good he was at getting us immersed in the story for the room!) Absolutely amazing evening would highly recommend to anyone.

Loved the new room 'The Ritual'. Strong aesthetic, great puzzles and the staff, as always, were excellent. Plus we got to summon a demon so....10/10 ~ Thank you, "It's a 'commune' actually"

Played Ritual today for "someone's" birthday. The room was excellent. Loved the aesthetic, enjoyed the nerdy easter eggs and the puzzles were great.

Alex mostly bullied me for cackling and chanting "cult cult cult" which is honestly fair. He was an absolute legend. 🫶

11/10 would join a cult/escape a room again.

Had a great time with my partner doing Ritual. Big thanks to Noel, Stephen and our game master Bob who were brilliant and made our experience. Ritual is a must, and be sure to ask for Bob as your game master!
