Honestly half the time we feel like cheerleaders for a group of strangers, but that’s the job I guess! It’s so exciting though when we get a group that comes in and just absolutely smashes it, however it’s very unusual for us to get a team that makes it onto the leaderboard.

Do you think you could get on the leaderboard? Find out by booking now at escape-key.co.uk!

Believe it or not, using this method will not get you on the leaderboard, or impress your gamesmaster. Whilst we do have emergency exit buttons in our escape rooms, we do advise that they are used in emergencies only!

If you’d like to test your escaping ability, book now at escape-key.co.uk!
