Trying to break out of the rental past that nosy host was the perfect t[...](#)hing to do together when we can't get up there often. Really good." Iwan Llewellyn From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Great fun, though a home button would save all the clicking about." Eilidh Fraser From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Great laugh. Would do again." Fraser Lockhart From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Did this for a friend's send-off before he emigrates, the whole crew dialling in on Zoom from all corners of the country. Slipping past the twitchy host and out[...](#) of the rental gave us heaps to bicker about and made for a cracking farewell" Usman Ghani From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Such a good idea, we'll be doing the rest of them" Padraig Nolan From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Really good fun, we just about managed to escape before calling it a night. The whole locked-in-the-rental idea worked a treat." Adnan Rashid From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Picked this for a Friday in and it was just the ticket. With no clock running we could pause for snacks whenever. Dave answered a daft question before we kicked[...](#) off. Rummaging round the host's rental for an exit had us all in stitches." Mhairi Sutherland From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Bit pricey for one room. Dave was sound though." Bilal Aslam From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Spent a Saturday night on this with my cousins, three different houses on Zoom. The whole idea of being trapped in this ShareBnb by a host who's watching your e[...](#)very move was brilliant and definately kept us hooked. Only gripe is you click back and forward a fair bit and I'd have liked a home page to jump around from. For the price though I can't really complain, worked out at next to nothing each. Outsmarting the paranoid host at the end felt great." Nadia Akhtar From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Enjoyable but a couple of the clues felt like a stretch." Dafydd Rees From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Loved that there was no clock ticking, took our time and had a laugh." Eluned Pryce From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"A fair test at intermediate level, the lot of us hit a wall on the bathroom lock. Bit of a shame you buy each room separately instead of a set, but for breaking[...](#) out of that host's place it's still good value." Lorna Aitken From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Good fun, already eyeing up the next one." Hamza Younis From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Booked this for a quiet Tuesday and somehow the whole family piled in. Liked being able to take it slow, we spread it over a couple of hours with loads of tea b[...](#)reaks. Got stuck wrestling with the lock on the bedroom door and leaned on the tips page twice, which sorted us out. Came to well under a tenner split five ways, a bargain for a night's fun. The jumpy host shut in a ShareBnb was a clever spin on things." Ayesha Malik From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Took us a smidge under two hours and we loved every minute." Roisin Kavanagh From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"A shade under two hours to talk our way out of the host's rental. Grand way to spend a Sunday afternoon with my brother, who's down south these days. Worth ever[...](#)y penny." Orla Sheehan From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Decent fun, though we ended up calling on the hints more than i'd have liked. Dave got back to my message in no time when i had a question." Harpreet Gill From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Got the whole family together on this one, my sister in Canada, my parents at home and us, all on a video call working through it together. Being scattered acro[...](#)ss time zones we don't get to do much as a group so this was lovely. Tim was great when I emailed asking how it all worked beforehand, put my mind at rest. Breaking out of the paranoid host's place gave us all something daft to focus on for an evening. Will be booking another." Kiran Sandhu From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Good laugh, but it sagged a bit in the middle. We spent the thick end of two hours on it and our focus started to drift before the finish." Saima Bukhari From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Got out in the end! Dave answered my email about the booking really quickly too." Rhys Morgan From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Cheap for the group, but the box didnt take my first code." SiΓ’n Davies From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Right from the start of being locked in by this paranoid host we were hooked. Took us close to two hours to work our way through the house and find a way out, a[...](#)nd we caved and used a couple of hints when one of the codes had us beat. My husband was absolutely convinced he had it and he very much did not. Lovely evening, exactly what we needed to break up a dull January." Farah Siddiqui From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Did this one between Christmas and New Year when we were all a bit sick of telly. The whole ShareBnb idea of being stuck in this rental with a host who clearly [...](#)didn't trust anyone was a good laugh, and getting through the different rooms of the house to find a way out kept the four of us going for ages. We just about scraped through and got out in the end, although there was a real wobble in the middle where nobody could agree. Already saying which one we'll book next, so that tells you everything really." SinΓ©ad Galligan From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"We hadn't expected to get so wrapped up in it. Two hours or so disappeared, mostly because we kept doubling back through the rental certain we'd overlooked some[...](#)thing. Having no clock was a mercy, since we are slow and dont stop nattering. The puzzle with the safe combination felt a touch mean, three goes before it clicked. Even so, a smashing evening, and we're already picking which one to book next." Bronwen Hughes From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Played this from our separate flats during lockdown. Getting free of the paranoid host's rental felt oddly fitting at the time. Dave fixed a login snag within m[...](#)inutes. One code was a real faff, otherwise spot on." SeΓ‘n Costello From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Best thing we did over a dreary lockdown weekend" Catriona Bruce From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Cracked it in the end, and Dave was a gem over email." Aoife Brady From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Did this over lockdown with the family on Google Meet. Billed as intermediate and that's about where it sat, the house puzzles properly stumped us while a coupl[...](#)e of the young ones drifted off. Solid enough, we got out of the host's place." Zainab Hussain From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Played this in the spring of 2021 when there wasn't much else to do. The premise of being locked in by a paranoid host while you're trying to get out as a key w[...](#)orker was clever. We needed a hint on the bit with searching one of the bedrooms but got there. Good fun for a stuck-indoors Friday." Carys Bevan From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Played this in lockdown with my flatmates over Zoom. The story of escaping the suspicious host's place was good and we nearly cracked it but ran out of steam on[...](#) the last stretch and couldn't quite finish. Fun all the same, might come back and try to actually escape it properly." Declan Burke From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"We did this (two families sharing via zoom) this afternoon ~ the locked down Airbnb - it was excellent! Kept us amused for almost 3 hours! Tricky - but we got t[...](#)here in the end!!" Janet Lacey From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"It took a while but we managed to escape the Lockdown room! Definitely recommend giving the game a try." Karen Caramiello From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"My friend and I during lockdown have bonded over several of these escape rooms. The themes were great, escape fest, lockdown room and the cabin fever! We even d[...](#)id the space room. Believe it or not some took us 3 or more hours but, it was well worth the money! Just played the new room β€˜the missing’ we are both isolating, played 2 screens and was very fun! Creepy to play at night but it was great fun!" Colette Gould From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Complete Lockdown breakout last night over zoom with friends. Really well thought out puzzles. Kept us entertained for a few hours" Tanya Johnson From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"So well put together! I've done the 'Lockdown Breakout' and 'A Night at the Theatre' so far and both are highly recommended!" Sophie Boyce From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"We just wrapped up a (now virtual) gaming convention that we have has a friends group annually This involves lots of board games and, traditionally, an escape r[...](#)oom. After reading the reviews of these vs. other more expensive virtual escape room options, we purchased "Lockdown Breakout," We are quite impressed! The price is extremely reasonable (we had 16 people and split into two teams, each streaming one purchase of the game in Discord). It's especially impressive that the Well done! We're looking forward to solving the others! (Note on timing: This did take quite a long time, even for veteran escape artists who have set records at some escape rooms IRL. Both groups took almost 2 hours to break out.)" Erika Phelps Nishiguchi From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"We’ve just played Lockdown Breakout escape room with friends and really enjoyed it! Two households played using screen share which worked well. For 4 people and[...](#) around 2 hours of entertainment, it was well worth Β£7.99. We will definitely do another room some time. It was tricky but not impossible and really cleverly done and well thought out. Taking notes and photos really helps as there are so many puzzles, clues and codes to find. Thank you for a great night! Melody, Marc, Rachael and Scott x" Melody Wright From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Have done these two nights in a row with a friend for her birthday. We are seasoned escape room aficionados and have found 's "rooms" to be very well done! Easy[...](#) to navigate, but challenging to solve, in all the best ways! We did the "Lockdown" room and the "Cabin Fever" room - we liked the videos in Lockdown and the "puzzles" in Cabin Fever (both excellent rooms). Thanks for bringing this fave activity of ours to an accessible format! I'm excited to do a room with a friend who lives very far away, next! Would be great for folks with limited mobility, or who cannot do traditional escape rooms for reasons other than a global pandemic. Looking forward to more rooms with this team and more options from this creator!" Maria Love From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"We completed lockdown breakout last night over video call with friends. We really enjoyed it! Found the layout really easy to use and we did manage to escape! B[...](#)eing able to email the link to our friends meant we could play alongside each other easily. Will defini look at doing another one!" Janette Graves From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Great way to spend a Friday night with friends in lockdown (virtually of course). The lock down room took us a little longer than the estimated hour but got the[...](#)re in the end!! Will be back next week for another room - not sure we are quite ready for expert yet!! Thanks!!"

Will definitely be trying a different room next week!" Lewis McColl From our archive β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜…"Spent last night doing the new lockdown escape room along with my brother and his wife. We spent such a long time and definitely got our money's worth inside th[...](#)e house!! We did manage to make it out 3 hours later but it was great.
