- Joseph Oliver1 contributionWhat a time to be aliveWhat a time to be alive. Kieran was a great host and made us feel very welcomed. The room was very fun and had puzzles for both the smart ones and the simple minded ones. It’s a great all round experience and the rules were made very clear from the start. Would 10/10 reccomend. Can’t wait to try out all the other rooms they offer.Hey, thanks for the great review! Glad you had a great time and it was a fun game to run! Looking forward to seeing you all again to take on the next room :) Thanks, KieranWritten 4 December 2022This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited December 2022Travelled with friendsWritten 3 December 2022
- Hayley HobbsIbiza, Spain2 contributionsThoroughly enjoyable!Completed Harry Potter style theme with Husband, Dad and Step Mum. Difficult, but with help from clues you find your way. James watched us on screen and only provided clues he thought were relevant to us. 4 people I would say is the perfect amount. We loved it and would highly recommend. Can’t wait to try the others! Thank you James for a great experience :-)Really happy to hear you had such a great time! And good to see you liked it enough to want to come back! look forward to seeing you again.

- sodaisyBridgwater, United Kingdom53 contributionsGreat escape room with fab game masterThis is our first time visiting Escape Plymouth. As we are not from the area, we couldn’t find the premise but we called up to asked for direction, the person we spoke to was very polite and helpful, and found the escape room with no trouble. James our game master greeted us, led us to our room and gave us the briefing before leaving us to start the game. The deco was simple but perfect for our game. The clues were very good and kept us thinking and push us along through the game. We ran out of time but James gave us extra time and we got out with another 2:30 mins. We both really enjoyed our game. The puzzles are varied in difficulty, and they are all related to the theme of our game. James is very helpful and brilliant at pushing us along. We had a great time and will be back again when we are in the area.Glad you guys found us alright and had a great time! You did well for your first time and we look forward to seeing you again.

- Kezza T1 contributionReally fun experience, wonderful and fun game's master!Such a fun evening doing the Area 51 Escape Room. The staff were really welcoming and friendly. Claire was a brilliant game's master - giving us clues when we needed them but with a good balance of leaving us time to figure things out by ourselves. 10/10 would recommend and would revisit!You did well guys! Thanks for the kind words much appreciated!

- ChrissiMelksham, United Kingdom17 contributionsGreat couples day out!Great couples day out. We tried Area 51 which is our first ever escape room. Claire was lovely, very helpful with lots of tips before starting. The escape room itself was brilliant. It was definitely a challenge and got our brains ticking - quite a challenge on a Monday morning! Absolutely loved every minute of it, and will definitely try more escape rooms in the near future. Thanks Claire for all of your help, and for being such a great gamesmaster.Aww thanks! You are welcome you were a lovely team and hope I get to see you in further escape room adventures!

- gemh23Plymouth, United Kingdom70 contributionsOur first escape roomOur first Escape Room experience and we really enjoyed it, we choose the bank heist. Beth explained it all and helped ease my mind about being locked in and not being able to get out. The clues helped and we managed to escape with quite a bit of money from the bank.Thank you so much for the review! You and your team were wonderful and I definitely think you should try The Arcade or Witchcraft and Wizardry next :) I'm glad I made your experience with us a fun and pleasant one! Hope to see you soon, BethWritten 20 December 2022This response is the subjective opinion of the management representative and not of Tripadvisor LLC.Visited December 2022Travelled as a coupleWritten 18 December 2022
- Teri Pease12 contributionsGreat fun and challengingWitchcraft and Wizardry was our escape room for the evening. We've done a few before as a group and this one was really fun and quite difficult in places, which was great. We were after a challenge! We were pleased to escape in time. James was friendly and explained everything we needed to know at the start. The only vaguely negative feedback we have is that the venue itself is really hard to find if you don't know where you're going. It would be really helpful if the directions were made much clearer as this is at the company's second site which isn't really that hard to find, if you know it's located inside the car park!Really glad you enjoyed the challenge of Witchcraft and Wizardry. You deserved your place on our Leaderboard! Glad you found it alright in the end and we look forward to hopefully seeing you all again.

- will2044 contributionsGreat escape room!Visited to do the Bank Heist escape room and it did not disappoint. Really good room and even my son aged 10 really enjoyed it. Our host James was fantastic, explained the room before hand and took time to talk to us afterwards. We will definitely be visiting again to complete other escape rooms.Thanks for your kind words and happy you and your son enjoyed the room! Look forward to seeing you again.

- Yvonne MPlymouth, United Kingdom20 contributionsBank Heist funWe did Bank Heist as a family with grown up children, and really enjoyed it. We liked the variety of puzzles and challenges. It was a great introduction to Escape Rooms for me, our Games Master Kieran explained all the rules clearly and was able to talk us through the puzzles we’d missed at the end. Thoroughly recommend.Hi Yvonne, thanks for your lovely review! I'm glad you had a brilliant time and enjoyed your first room :) Looking forward to seeing you all again soon for the next challenge!

Did the Beanstalk room, last night with my friends, probably one of my favourite ones so far, and between our group we have done nearly all of them! Such a fun and slightly different way of doing it, and our Gamesmaster was lovely too and very helpful, we just need to take on sub zero next 😁

We came and did an escape room and axe throwing (2 separate days) whilst here on a break to visit a friend in uni. I cant recommend this place enough! So so much fun and great value for money. I cant remember our instructors names but we can't thank you enough for such a lovely couple of experiences.

We went into the Area 51 Escape Room, and it was a fantastic experience - challenging, engaging and fun. Our Games Master James was brilliant, and we were made to feel very welcome. We will definitely be going back to check out the other Escape Rooms on the site - would highly recommend.

3rd time doing an escape room, actually did it this time, really enjoyed it, would recommend . We did Arcade, once we got the ball rolling thanks to a few handy tips, we did it. Easily booked on line.

Really enjoyable experience. Went as a couple for a date night and to do something different and we were pleasantly surprised. We did the Witchcraft and Wizardry room and its was challenging but enjoyable. Not too easy and not too hard.
Claire was our game host and she was amazing. Really friendly, offered support at the right times and was great to speak to about it afterwards and get ideas for other escape rooms to try.
Only thing of note was that we got lost and ended up at Timber Vault on the main road. Our escape room was actually around the back and could be accessed from the car park and not from a street. Thankfully the staff were really helpful and walked us over to the right place so we could start on time.
Looking forward to going back and trying other rooms and maybe even beating a record!
