Escape Hunt Birmingham Resorts World

Escape room center

🫤 I'll start by saying we have visited Escape Hunt in Birmingham city centre and we played The Last Samurai and The Finest Hour and we enjoyed them very much. Also, Courtney was an absolutely fabulous games master - he was friendly and full of character and this following review is by no way a review... People often mention room, escape, experience, game, great, Aladdin, time, friendly, Alice, Great,

    I'll start by saying we have visited Escape Hunt in Birmingham city centre and we played The Last Samurai and The Finest Hour and we enjoyed them very much. Also, Courtney was an absolutely fabulous games master - he was friendly and full of character and this following review is by no way a review of him - we'd give him five stars! We played the Aladdin game and as we walked in we were initially impressed with the look of the room...but appearances can be decieving! We found that the whole room seemed almost very 'rushed' - it felt like every puzzle had been put together very hastily and some poorly - one puzzle was broken and didn't work at all, and some of the ones that were supposedly working were falling apart with bits hanging off etc. Also, the room was reliant entirely on electronic puzzles - there are no manual number locks or keys to find in this game. We found that this didn't always work too well - there was one part (not wanting to ruin it - but with some scales) that we seemed to complete without actually doing anything! Also the "musical" section seemed to work at some points and then not at others and seemed far too heavily reliant on the technology. The most frustrating part was at the very end when the final puzzle didn't work on the door and we just had to force the puzzle open...it all felt a little bit anti climactic. When we normally leave escape rooms rushing out the door in elation, we left this one just feeling a bit....meh. It's a shame, because like I said, we have been to Escape Hunt before and always regarded them as a more high end escape room and on par with Escape Live. And when you pay £80 for four people for an hour, we just expected a bit more quality. Not sure if we want to try Alice in Puzzleland after this one 😓

    Had a fabulous time here doing the Aladdin experience and was amazing! Special shout out to Sanchez for being an awesome games master and to top it all off we got 3rd place on the leaderboard! 😁😁😁 Sanchez needs a reward for being so great, take him out for a meal! 😊

    Me and my girlfriend did the Aladdin escape room the other day and had a lot of fun. Big thanks to Ella (our game master) who was very friendly and accommodating. And thanks for the hints! Would definitely go again.

    Aladdin is a fantastic escape room! We escaped in 40 mins which we suprised ourselves at! We will be back to do the others! Thanks to Mo for the little bit of help and telling us to have PATIENCE, the every 5 seconds lol

    What a very cool & unusual experience! We did the Dr Who room with a family of 4 (12 to 44 years old) & every one loved it. Nathan was an absolute star on the day, warm friendly & with the perfect level of enthusiasm. He really did make it so enjoyable. Will definitely be returning to try out the other rooms & would highly recommend

    What a blast! Absolutely amazing Alice in Wonderland escape room. Immediately booked Doctor Who for tomorrow night. Nathan, Jamie, and Sanchez were amazing game masters and set an amazing, fun tone for the evening! Absolutely excellent time!

    From arriving at the escape room Jay was really welcome and explained the rules etc with great humour. During our time in the room Jay and Joe helped us along when necessary but allowed us to solve the puzzles aa much as we could, they struck a great balance. The Aladdin room was really enjoyable with a great mix of challenges. We would definitely visit again. Thanks to Jay and Joe for making it such a great experience

    Amazing Alice in puzzleland experience!!! Didn’t make it out in time but that’s was definitely down to us not Zak who was super helpful with lots of hints! Thanks Zaks for a thrilling hour of fun! Definitely will be going back as larger group.

    We did the Alice VR which was amazing! The graphics and world building were the best we’ve done. Leo our games master was super friendly and funny and helpful in the game. 10/10 would recommend 💖

    A brilliant escape room. We did Alice in Puzzle land- really good room, hard but not ridiculous. Great for a party of 4. Jay and Jamie were really good hosts and made the experience a fun one! Would definitely go back to do the other rooms.

    Did the Alice in Puzzleland room with our neice (10 years old). We all had a great time. Shout out to Sanchez who was a great host!

    Forgot to write review from yesterday! Had a lovely time doing the Aladdin game with family. Welcomed by Games Master Sam (A.K.A The Wizard) who did an excellent job with some stellar acting. Escaped with 10 minutes to go on the dot! Did well for a group of first-timers and will be back to do rest of rooms.

    We took our 8 year old nephew for his birthday for the Alice escape room. It was absolutely brilliant and challenging even for an adult! Thanks to Sanchez for his game master guidance because I don't think we would have gotten out!

    My son, his dad an I attended the Dalek Awakens escape room earlier today, and had a blast! Nathan was so kind, funny and attentive - all round the perfect quiz master! The game was really fun, and ideal to play with a teenager.

  • 5/5 Jenna T. 4 months ago on Google
    Amazing experience Sanchez was a great host and really helped us when we needed it without us having to ask. Made us really excited ahead of the game, overall experience is 10/10 and will definitely be coming back for another room

    My second experience of an escape room experience. I went with cousins and we all loved it. The customer service was excellent. We were made of all the rules clearly. One of the game masters called Ben was absolutely helpful and very friendly. We completed the Aladdin escape room experience. Covid-19 restrictions do apply ie wearing gloves and face masks right from when you enter the premise. Please do remember that.

    Four of us did ‘Aladdin’ which we found fairly easy compared to other escape rooms we have done. Ben was our host and he was great. The reception area was very pleasant and we were pleased with the whole experience.

  • 5/5 Emma H. 3 years ago on Google
    Best escape room I've done. Excellent character acting and the set up was so good and challenging. Loved it. Would love to try the other one here as we only done Aladdin.

  • 5/5 Scott F. 3 years ago on Google
    We visited for a birthday and did the virtual reality escape room, it was absolutely incredible. Highly recommend. We can't wait to go back

  • 5/5 Ashton P. 3 years ago on Google
    Staff were very friendly and played the part in our Aladdin scene perfectly! We escaped the room with 30 secs to go, to move onto the next stage in the room you may need to do something really really basic (like close the door or something like that). We had to ask for help 3 or 4 times whilst in the room. We had an hour.
