What to do and see in Birmingham, England: The Best Room Escape Games
The geographical heart of England, Birmingham started life as a sixth- century Anglo-Saxon village. Today, much of this city of over a million dates back to post-WWII redevelopment in the 1950s and 60s. Cutting edge museums and galleries, innovative theaters and excellent shopping have contributed to Birmingham's appeal as a weekend break destination. Don't miss the hopping bars and cafes of Gas Street Basin or the fascinating creatures at the National Sea Life Centre.

Escape Reality is the ultimate real-life gaming experience. We have 5 immersive escape experiences where teams between 2-6 players must solve a series of challenging puzzles to escape in 60 minutes! Can you escape the maximum high security prison, Alcatraz? Or work your way through a lab where experiments with AI have gone horribly wrong? Try to restore order to the Seven Kingdoms by ending the war for the Iron Throne, or attempt to steal the world’s most expensive diamond in Bank Job! And for the daredevils we have the horror-movie inspired Enigmista where you must find your way out of the serial killer's lair before the time runs out... We can accommodate large groups of up to 30 people comfortably inside our rooms and we have a large social area.

We did the Alcatraz room which was actually better than we expected! Really enjoyed it! We started with Jakub as our game master who helped us through the basics and then we ended with Levi who was really energetic and lovely when we managed to escape. She made us feel very proud of ourselves and thanks to her and the quality of the rooms we will hopefully be visiting again very soon.

The most thrilling and captivating escape rooms in Birmingham. The objective sounds simple - escape the room with your team before the time runs out, but it would be unwise to think that this will be anywhere near easy. Completing your quest will take complex teamwork, magnificent communication and nerves of steel. You will need to decipher codes, solve puzzles and discover clues to escape. Take advantage of our peak and off-peak offers as well as group discounts and experience the most exciting 60 minutes you've ever had!

It’s fun, challenging and intriguing! I’ve been here twice (haunted hollow and Sherlock’s secret) both experiences were amazing! The themes are well thought out and the staff are lovely.

Returned today for Alice in Puzzleland (we did Aladdin back in the summer). Really had great fun and lucky to have Liam again today- he’s really great and enthusiastic in character. Can’t wait to go back and do another. We needed a few clues and found the game fun and makes you think- certainly not easy. We managed to escape with a few minutes to go. Really recommend!!! No problems with the health and safety. Everything was clean, had to wear masks & gloves and had safety brief on arrival.
