Excellent Quaser Party for Sons 13th birthday, Paige and Nicola were so helpful, patient and caring towards all the children, many with additional needs. Nothing was too much trouble and the whole party was amazing, us parents even joined in, great fun. Would highly recommend to anyone of any age. We can't wait to return.

Live escape game in Sunderland
Reviewed By VickiW30 - Durham, United Kingdom
Took the husband and two 10/11 year olds for our first escape room. Had absolutely no idea what to expect but I throughly enjoyed it. We did Bunker 38 room and we escaped with 32 seconds to go (in reality, I think the lovely nicola who was our host somehow managed to make time freeze, wink wink, just so the girls thought they’d escaped - although we were only about a minute off). The set up was really good - started with a short briefing session. We were given a walkie talkie to contact nicola if and when we got stuck (quite often). She was great and gave us gentle nudges in the right direction. Altogether a great afternoon out, would definitely return and try one of the other rooms!

We have done two of the three rooms as a family of 4. The Vault and Alice in Wonderland were really well thought out and lots of fun. Staff were pleasant and explained things well. Not in a highly accessible area especially for those not familiar with the area but please, please, please do not let this put you off. It really deserves to be more well known about because it is one of the best we've end. Alice in Wonderland is one of my favourite childhood books so this room in particular was wonderful!

If you've been to any of our clubs before you might have noticed things are all shiny and new around these parts recently. It's nice, don't you think? Don't worry though. We still have the same ideals at heart. Brilliant bingo, friendly faces and a great night out. If you've never been to one of our clubs, what are you waiting for? It's lots of fun.
