This is a real welcome change to the endless padlocks-and-plywood I've seen with at other venues. We did the Deep Space Brig room and Liam has really put some thought into this, making use of technology and science into the puzzles as well as a good amount of code-breaking. It was enjoyable and challenging in equal amounts. Would visit again and would recommend.

My wife and I have done a few escape rooms now - mostly as part of a four-person strong group. We were warned that First Contact was a challenge but we had a go anyway! Our host Simon had not had the best day; all of his groups had failed the room, someone had broken one of his puzzles and he looked rather concerned we were going to add to that list! He said it was possible as a two, if we got a move on! It's hard to write without spoilers but this is one of the most fun rooms we've ever done. Hard? Yes. Interesting? Yes. Probably would have been less stressful with 4? Definitely. [Let's call it] Part III of the room added a welcome touch, that I've not seen before in an escape room. It has a bit of a Red Dwarf vibe to it that really worked for me. The theme was strong throughout. The puzzles are mostly non-linear, which will suit bigger groups well. I probably wouldn't make this your first ever room, as there are many puzzles to solve for the 60 min time limit. But I can see why people travel to come and play it. I certainly look forward to trying Hugh Dunnit next time we're back in Sheffield. Bravo.

We went on a date to Adventure Now in Sheffield to do Archery. Our instructor was Vaughn and he was absolutely brilliant!! The session was an hour and due to Covid, it was just myself and my friend being looked after by Vaughn. We got set up and had a thorough training for health and safety and use of the bows and arrows. After a couple of rounds, Vaughn introduced some games for us to play, was thoroughly enthusiastic through-out and we had some excellent chats with him through the hour. It was an excellent way to spend the hour, something really different and interesting and we both found the day extremely enjoyable. Thanks to the team!
