    Escape Live was an awesome day out. We went for a team building exercise which was difficult as we hardly knew each other as new starts at a company. I can imagine it'd be even more fun with family or friends! We tried out the 'Armageddon' room and found it to be pretty difficult - we kept asking for clues and had a total of 11 in the end and managed to escape, luckily, with 50 seconds remaining. We were surprised to have only recieved what appeared as a business card informing us of our 'time remaining', 'number of clues' and 'host's name' as well as asking for a review via trip advisor. Honestly, we expected at least a small reward for escaping. However, we appreciated the efforts of the host (Mavel?) he was chatty, had a sense of humour and was very friendly - the type of personality that would get customers returning! The young guy at reception was also friendly and welcomed us all with a smile which was nice. The Escape Live's building named 'Fargo STUDIOS' is situated on a private street so you require a permit. Free parking is approximately 10minute's walk from the building. They will take pictures of your group and add them to their Facebook page too which is a nice addition.

    Could not have been better. Staff are amazing the games are amazing and they really fit for the job they are doing, making jokes and setting the mood before the game even starts. We played all 3 games within a few months and we enjoyed all 3 of them and will definitely go to other venues of this company. If you are looking for something special to do go for it.

    Amazing experience specially with Ezra! She takes being a game master seriously. We did all 3 rooms in Coventry - all great. If you are a passionate about escape rooms in order of preference: Casino (very difficult but fun) Prison Break (nice and easy but also thrilling) Armageddon (unique puzzles)

    Fantastic experience, fun for a group of friends. Clean and quality interior, the music, props and storyline really helps getting into the mood. Ezra the game master was great, she created a good atmosphere. She is enthusiastic and fun, shout-out to her. We've done the casino heist room which is apparently the most difficult they have but I can highly recommend even to an inexperienced group like we were.

    Taken family for a birthday party. We had 3 children aged 11-14. The game monitor was brilliant and very supportive during the game. We were very happy with staff and the game. Only issue we had was space while waiting. I would recommend to friends.

    Had an amazing experience at Escape Live, where we escaped Armageddon with 5 mins to go. Cory our host, was super enthusiastic and ensured we understood the rules correctly. Highly recommend Armageddon - it’s one of the best escape rooms we have done

  • 5/5 Sabrina K. 2 years ago on Google
    Mitch was fantastic and super helpful when we were lost in Prison Break. He was fast to noticed which helped us a lot. The room setup was quite creative and the puzzles are somewhat hard to solve. would recommend a group of 4 or 6 pax to play. much easier and more fun!

    Missile Armageddon room was great. Our host Lee mad us feel really welcome and explained things thoroughly. Didn't escape but the amazing Lee did an stupendous photo shoot afterwards. Escape room was very good but Lee the magnificent was incredible, I'd double his wage if I were his manager, hope I get Lee next time xxxx

    Had an amazing visit to escape live. Staff was so friendly and helpful. Me and my friends were a little nervous as we never done one before but they reassured us, and made us feel safe. Will definitely go again

  • 5/5 Chloe B. 2 years ago on Google
    Had great fun in armageddon we escaped with 7.24 left on the clock our new personal best. Our room runner Cory was great (may have given us a subtle hint from time to time) but only when we needed it. We are looking to comeback very soon to celebrate my parents anniversary and would recommend Cory and armageddon to anyone considering visiting.

  • 5/5 sana 1 year ago on Google
    Quentin was amazing! Honestly the best host. We did Armageddon and it was so good! Recommend this place so much!

  • 4/5 Perry M. 1 year ago on Google
    Have attended here a few times and done all 3 of the rooms now. All rooms are great fun and staff are very helpful and welcoming. 1 downside in 2 of the rooms there was parts of the room that wasnt working properly such as the lasers in the casino room, i feel like this would of been a great feature of the room if it worked.

  • 5/5 Andy N. 1 year ago on Google
    Great fun, for all the family. We went and did the Armageddon escape experience on Sunday and Jess the Game Master was fantastic at putting our 8 year old at ease who was nervous at first. There were laughs, moans, groans, and frustration but all in good fun. Would definitely recommend and will be back to do the other puzzles.

  • 5/5 Lowen M. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely brilliant experience. My 3 friends and I, really enjoyed our time at Escape Live. Prison break was the challenge we were trying to do today, and although we didn’t make it out, it was bloody brilliant. Shoutout to Quentin, he was amazing, he made us laugh and made our trip the most memorable.

👍👍 Absolutely fantastic time. Went with my 2 eldest children (13 & 15) and it was our first escape room. Staff were really friendly and welcoming, and we managed to escape from Scarlett in 47 minutes, which felt like a decent achievement. Would highly recommend.
