About
60 minutes to work together as a team to solve a series of clues and puzzles in order to complete the objective and escape from a locked room. Take on a diamond heist in Professor Enright's Enigma, solve a murder and kidnapping in Death on Dartmoor, or go back to 1942 and help King and country by joining the Home Guard to stop an imminent enemy invasion in D-Day for Devon. Will you manage it in time?

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.

We had a great time at Devon escapes for my son’s 12 birthday. There was 5 of us working together to solve the D Day puzzle.
We were greeted and looked after by Tish who made us feel very welcome and gave us all the information we needed (including help in the room when we needed it).
There are two more rooms we have yet to try, but will definitely be going back to play again.

Great afternoon spent at Devon Escape doing Murder On Dartmoor. Kane looked after us and was very accommodating when we turned up late. Quite difficult to find , best to park at Cricketfield road car park and it's a short (2 -3) min walk out of the back of the car park from there. Would definitely recommend a visit.

This was a lot of fun. Never have any of us done anything like this. And let me say we were rubbish. None of us would make detective. But it was all very cleverly set out for us and we laughed a lot.

Highly recommended
Really enjoyable. Very pleasant for a group of first timers with middling experience in puzzle solving, however the gm was very helpful as and when without being intrusive. They struck the perfect balance of letting us work it out whilst providing a well timed hint or tip to push us in the right direction (thank you Kane).
The puzzles themselves were cleverly designed and delightfully challenging without being to tough to make you want to quit.
Will be very keen to attend the other rooms they have.

Kane was a nice and friendly GM! His hints were super helpful! We played the Death on Dartmoor escape room and it was both fun and challenging.

Thanks for your enquiry. Sorry it's taken so long to answer your question as we are still in the process of setting up the business. Unfortunately we are still awaiting the result of our planning application and will therefore not be open for business until mid/late December at the earliest. Would be great to see you then. We are keeping everyone updated via Facebook, Twitter and the Devon Escape website.
