★★★★★**4.8 / 5** · 46 player reviews

★★★★★"Got the four of us together on a Friday night for this and blimey, it's a hard one. The whole damaged station with the air running down really keeps you moving.[...](#) We were at it the guts of two hours and a bit, and only just got the airlock open at the death, with half the group ready to throw the towel in. Brilliant though, felt like we'd actually earned it."

Vikram Kapoor

From our archive

★★★★★"Nice and relaxed with nothing forcing the pace, we just chipped away at it over the evening. Dropped Dave a line when we got stuck and he came back fast. Thorou[...](#)ghly enjoyed it."

Winston Roberts

From our archive

★★★★★"Hardest of the bunch and a right laugh."

Andre Walters

From our archive

★★★★★"Well worth the money for six of us, that's a whole evening sorted for buttons."

Abena Owusu

From our archive

★★★★★"Put this on for a mate who was leaving the firm, the lot of us on a call from home with drinks in hand. Smashing night and it kept the whole group properly occu[...](#)pied. We'll be doing another."

Jermaine Phillips

From our archive

★★★★★"Spent a quiet Sunday afternoon on this with my partner. Nothing rushing you along on the broken station, which suited us, so we took breaks and still wrapped up[...](#) around the two hour mark. Emailed Dave a daft question and he was really patient about it."

Emeka Nwosu

From our archive

★★★★★"Played this with the lads over a games night. Some of the wiring puzzles on the dead station had us totally stumped and we ended up peeking at the hints page tw[...](#)ice, but getting the power humming again felt class"

Suresh Iyer

From our archive

★★★★★"Brilliant value for the group. Dave sorted my query by email."

Femi Adebayo

From our archive

★★★★"Good fun, though one puzzle leaned on a leap of logic that grated."

Efua Acheampong

From our archive

★★★★"We gave this a go as a group and it really is a brain melter. Ended up needing three hints to get unstuck on the gravity bit, which felt like a lot, but we did [...](#)finish. Genuinely tricky in places."

Selina Quartey

From our archive

★★★★★"Did this on Google Meet with my cousins, all of us in different cities. We needed a couple of hints to get moving on the power puzzles but that's on us for over[...](#)thinking. Tim answered my setup question really quickly beforehand which was great."

Denise Thompson

From our archive

★★★★★"Good fun though it nearly broke us, a fair bit harder than expected."

Chioma Eze

From our archive

★★★★★"Hardest one yet. Loved it."

Yaw Antwi

From our archive

★★★★★"Really good, though Dave took a day or so to reply when I emailed."

Theo Ferreira

From our archive

★★★★★"Properly chuffed we cracked it"

Reshma Nair

From our archive

★★★★"Booked this for my dad's birthday and got the wider family on a call for it, ages ranging from teens to nearly seventy. The fact nothing's ticking away on the d[...](#)amaged station really helped because we are not a fast bunch and we could potter through at our own speed, with the oxygen meter the only nudge. It is hard though, definitely their toughest, and a few of the older lot drifted off near the end. Dave was a gem when I dropped him a note about sorting access for the whole crew. Knocked a star off only because a couple of the puzzles assumed you'd spotted something tiny in an image."

Vernon Brooks

From our archive

★★★★★"Six of us dotted about in different towns hopped on Zoom for this. Loved the whole stranded space station idea and the puzzles really make you work. Great value[...](#) too for what we paid between us."

Samuel Wanjiru

From our archive

★★★★"Did this one with my brother and his housemates. The oxygen running out gives it a bit of a push even though there's no actual timer, and it took us closer to t[...](#)wo hours. Bit pricey felt right for what it was, just wish a couple of the airlock puzzles had a clearer hint."

Manjit Bains

From our archive

★★★★★"Got a group of mates together on a video call for this, everyone in their own kitchen dotted about the place. Genuinely the hardest thing we've attempted, that [...](#)broken station with the air supply dwindling kept us on edge the whole way through. Nobody guiding you through it, which we actually preferred, so we rolled our sleeves up and worked it out between us over the course of an evening, well past the two hour mark. My one niggle was the clues being split across different pages, so you're forever hopping between tabs to find what you'd already worked out. Cracking puzzle though, another one's already booked."

Kojo Darko

From our archive

★★★★★"So good, we were all hooked the whole way through."

Esther Kamau

From our archive

★★★★"decent fun but a bit steep for how quick it was over."

Cherelle Bennett

From our archive

★★★★★"Five of us all dialled in on Teams from different houses for this. The no power, no gravity setup is a brilliant idea and we had a laugh with it, only gripe is [...](#)the answer box dont like it if you get the spacing wrong on the codes."

Deepa Joshi

From our archive

★★★★★"Sat down with my husband and the two teenagers for this and it definately tested us. Great value for the four of us and the broken space station theme really pu[...](#)lled the kids in. We had to lean on the hints page a good few times on the trickier codes, no shame in that, and we did escape right at the very end with the oxygen basically gone. Brilliant family night, we were all buzzing afterwards."

Yvonne Clarke

From our archive

★★★★★"This is billed as their hardest and it absolutely is, genuinely the Genius level was no joke for us. What I really liked was being able to take our time, we pau[...](#)sed for a brew partway and came at the oxygen puzzle with fresher heads. The zero gravity stuff is clever and a couple of times we were all convinced we'd hit a dead end. Got there eventually. Best one we've done of theirs by a mile."

Lakshmi Menon

From our archive

★★★★★"i'll be honest, we went into this thinking we'd breeze it and we very much did not. The station losing power and the oxygen dropping makes you feel a bit franti[...](#)c in a good way. Took us about two and a half hours spread across one long evening and we just about made it out at the end, with a fair bit of shouting. My sister was no help whatsoever but we got there. Brilliant fun, exactly what we wanted for a night in together."

Naomi Achebe

From our archive

★★★★★"Tough but good. Doing another."

Anil Chopra

From our archive

★★★★"Good fun and properly hard. We didnt quite manage it without help, needed a hint or two on the airlock and even then it took some doing. Worth a go if you like [...](#)a real challenge."

Joel Mwangi

From our archive

★★★★★"Lovely evening with friends, all of us joining the same call from our own front rooms. Tim sorted out a small hiccup we had logging on really quickly. Will be r[...](#)ecommending to the rest of the gang."

Karen Sealey

From our archive

★★★★"Did this over a work thing and the dead space station kept us busy a fair while, two hours plus if I'm honest. Really enjoyed the panic of the air dropping but [...](#)a couple of the codes dragged on longer than they needed to and we lost a bit of steam in the middle."

Ngozi Okonkwo

From our archive

★★★★★"Took us ages but we loved every minute"

Meena Pillai

From our archive

★★★★★"We had a lot of fun in Space Race escape room. 35 people were really confused with complexity but we solved it. Nice stuff!!"

Mike Litvinenko

From our archive

★★★★★"We've just successfully completed Space Race for our work xmas do (with A LOT of hints), so I guess we are genuises now?!"

Jo Kelly

From our archive

★★★★★"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 ‘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

★★★★★"a great way to spend an evening! 3 friends and I have done the space ship and office rooms challenges and they are hard, but definitely doable. We used zoom to [...](#)communicate and shared one screen and this worked great! We definitely recommend this."

Dom Richardson

From our archive

★★★★★"I've played Space Race and Cabin Fever so far. Enjoyed both rooms. have played with experienced escape room players and players who were new to escape rooms. we[...](#) all enjoyed the experiences. The puzzles are good mix of challenge levels. have already purchased my next room! Would definitely recommend a pen and paper to hand and to take pictures of clues as they will likely be needed later on and moving back and forth between 'areas' can be a bit awkward."

Katy Kent

From our archive

★★★★★"Played space race game tonight took us about 3 hours but a lot of fun. One part (no spoilers) slowed us down considerably and I’d say was too complicated howeve[...](#)r over all it was brilliant. Will deffo be doing more."

Ross Nedyrd

From our archive

★★★★★"We escaped the Space Race! Excellent experience with a wide range of challenges... just wish we’d found you sooner in the lockdown!"

Amanda Hayward

From our archive

★★★★★"I suggested a trapped in the web escape room as an alternative way to spend time with my family online. We escaped 'space race' and everyone loved it. Very clev[...](#)erly thought out and designed really well, great customer service too. I'm pleased to know my family will be purchasing more to do with their friends. Thank you"
