About
Clockwork Escapes is the premiere Escape Room attraction in Wolverhampton, a unique challenge with true character. Each of the themed locked rooms within is a race against the clock to escape. But they're also more than that. At Clockwork Escapes, you will aid the proprietor, the exuberant Professor Clockwork, in achieving one of a number of tasks whilst in the room of your choosing.

My partner and I have done many escape rooms in the past, but this has been my favourite! The whole interior was decorated in the theme and the host was in character and really got you excited for the room. When in the actual escape room we were surprised by the quality of the setup and the variation of puzzles - plus a very fun surpise! We'd love to return and see what the other room/s have in store.

We bought The Alleyway room and have to say it was brilliant!!!
All of us had had Escape Room experiences, but found this the best one as it made you think more and ‘outside the box’. We were met by Professor Clockwork who instantly made you feel in a different world, sarcastic but funny.
The experience was amazing - you could quite easily think 1 dimensional and think it’s just an Alley, but you would be very mistaken, sooo much more goes on.
Would highly recommend.

Fantastic experience for the group of us that went. Over and above other escape room experiences down to their set dressings in the rooms and all throughout. The incredible hosts and the story they weave for the rooms. We were hosted by the Conductor and he was an amazing character. Definitely recommend for those new to escape rooms and veterans.

Visited here to try out the highly rated fool’s gold escape room. We have done over 50 rooms and this is in our top 5. Was very good. Well thought out and the host was good. Has side missions which add to the experience. Would highly recommend.

First time doing an escape room. The host was wonderful! Charismatic, funny and made sure we left smiling.
The puzzles were well thought out, and everything connected together. The host would chip in and give us subtle clues to help keep us moving. Very happy with my experience

Visited the Telford site to do fools Gold.
Had a great time – very warm welcome and well looked after in terms of our valuables being locked away et cetera.
Great experience – we were a group of six and that was fantastic

Me and my partner have done three of the rooms available at Clockwork Escapes now (two in the Telford location and one at the Wolverhampton venue) and have been massively impressed by both. An atmosphere is created as soon as the host opens the door; he stays thoroughly in character as the eccentric but approachable Professor Clockwork throughout the experience and is very charismatic, witty and really helps to create a mysterious ambience and long-lasting memory! My partner and I completed the Alleyway at Wolverhampton and it was so well done, truly creepy with challenging but not impossible puzzles. We also did Mind Palace and Foole’s Gold in Telford, and Mind Palace was fantastically laid out with more and more immersive layers to it as you went on. Me and my partner didn’t complete it in time so Professor Clockwork very kindly gave us some extra time before giving us an insightful walkthrough to finish off. He did the same with Foole’s Gold, which again, we didn’t quite finish but was by far our favourite. The side quest of having items to collect as well as solve the puzzles was so fun and having an adding a slightly physical element was brilliant, as it really gets you involved in the amazing scenery so artfully done to put you into the story. Seen a lot of people review the Professor’s escape rooms fondly and it’s well-deserved, couldn’t recommend more for an escape room venue!

the challenges were well thought through, but some were ineptly executed.
the host spoke too fast and was difficult to understand.
Diligence necessary to avoid mistakes, mistakes were labelled as red herrings, which was unhelpful

The room definitely gave us a Christmas feel. The theming from what it said on the website was very wrong. We expected to deliver gifts and sneak around as the website had said but we got a very different experience. It felt like there wasn't a story and we were just opening locks when we got clues. If your looking for a starter escape room, this one is definitely for you as it was very simple.

We did the Alleyway and Sanctum rooms, both were brilliantly thought out and really got you thinking but do able. Thoroughly enjoyable night and really recommend!

Not in any of our current rooms, I'm afraid. All the tests we've run show that there just isn't enough space nor enough to keep 8 people busy and having fun.
However, our next room is hopefully going to be for 2 - 8 players, if all goes well.
Stay tuned to Clockwork's Facebook for the latest on that one.

Would the rooms be suitable for someone as young as 9?
Thanks.

Hello there!
We've had children as young as 7 accompany groups of adults and groups of 11 year olds handling the rooms just fine on their own.
So, if you're planning on playing on the team with them, a nine year old should be fine!
Regards,
The Professor
