Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Did the mask at centre vr, great concept BUT issues with the technology buffering so this wastes time and was supposed to be able to ring the reception for help at any point, rang twice and no one answered either time, there is no one dedicated to the escape room, then are all dealing with the vr side. Had to leave room to get someone who then had to go and look things up.

We tried the Hannibal escape room and were disappointed to be honest. I only leave reviews when feel I should. We've done 12-15 escape rooms now as a family, this was the most expensive room we've done and we would say that it was 2nd from the bottom out of them all. There were no clear instructions throughout and we had to continuously ask for clues, one of the pull cords for the clues wasn't working at all and the battery on the uv torch was running low so it was very hard to see.

Just visited the Jungle Hunt Escape. Josh was a great host and took us through the Fire Briefing and Rules of the Game before we were locked in. A great escape room with lots of entertainment and brain searching. Just looking at the calendar for a visit to the Hanibal Room now. Thank you Josh and Lockey Escape Rooms.

Me and 5 other friends did the Jungle Hunt escape room. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hints where usefull but not too revealing. Piece of advice, don't try randomly solve puzzles! It is much funnier if you try to figure them out, and even with us managing to randomly solve 2 of the hardest puzzles we still had a blast and it took us 45 minutes. Also book directly via the website, and give them a call if needs be as it saves you money over Groupon and makes more for the bussiness

We went as a group of six, and the customer service was amazing. It took us around 40 minutes and the whole experience was great. The staff were very helpful, and gave us helpful yet puzzling clues whenever we requested. Overall, this escape room was very enjoyable and I will be recommending to friends.

Are the VR attractions scary? We have a wimp in our group...

Hi Chloe,
We have two options of games on VR, one is called Cosmos and another one is called Mind Horror. Cosmos is definitely not a scary one, I can assure you that.
Kind regards,

How much does the Ace Ventura escape room cost?

This room I believe is £24 for adults and £16 for children. It’s in my opinion the best one. So interactive. I think they give discount if you do a second room on the same day. Hope that helps.
