    Awesome escape room. I did the Alice in Wonderland room and had so much fun. I love how there is no limit on clues, so you don’t feel pressured and get to enjoy the experience. If you want less clues, then you can challenge yourself but if you want more you can get more. It took me around 7 clues and 58 minutes to escape. I think a larger group would be helpful, since I only had one other person with me. Overall very fun and worth the time.

    This is an solid, small budget escape room. I really enjoyed doing it still, but was a little underwhelmed by the set design. We did the Alice in Wonderland room, and there was so much potential for multiple rooms with different themes that mirrored the book, like shrinking or enlarging all the props. I will say that they did a good job with space that was available. There was one really creative puzzle with lights that I absolutely adored. However, I do think that adding things like texture to the wall vs murals could make the room more dynamic and immersive. Also, if possible, I think it would be worthwhile to give some of the items and puzzles a facelift. There were some that I was scared to touch or break because they looked so worn and fragile.

    A really fun escape room, the right amount of stress as well with the puzzles, whilst me and my girlfriend didn't get to finish it because damn those puzzles were great and our time ran out, I would definitely come back again. Highly recommend to anyone who loves puzzles and to quick thinkers, you will have a blast! Thankfully none of us became a Jill Sandwich though.

    Fantastic afternoon! Me and three friends were warmly welcomed by the crew at the Clockwork key escape rooms here in Dublin, they made the experience truly great fun! Fantastic escape room. We gave the Alice and wonderland room a go, The theme was very enjoyable and I look forward to doing the other rooms when Im back in Dublin. Would recommend to all, and we will be back!

    We failed horribly in the Alice in Wonderland escape room. So much fun though! We were an hour early and they let us chill and play board games. Great space to hang out.

    We did Alice in Wonderland, it was so good. Really enjoyed our time. In addition they have a communal space to play borad games.

    Friendly people there. The escape room wasn't that good. A single room play, all stuff old and a bite "dirty". Some riddles are fun, but for us it wasn't worth the price we paid. We did much better (and cheaper) rooms in Ireland.

    Do not waste your money, not a great escape room at all, room was dirty and dusty, door and hallway were being painted so the fumes were awful, resulting in headaches and an asthma attack for one of our party once we left, door was left ajar as paint was wet so we were disturbed by noise, puzzles were underwhelming and not intuitive and did not flow well. We have done many rooms around Dublin and unfortunately this was at the bottom. The host was friendly and did apologise for the painting works but really should not have let us do the escape room under those conditions

    Great escape room for both first timers and more experienced escape room goers. The puzzles were creative and not too easy, but you can request a clue whenever you like or have the operator give you them when they feel you need it, which is great. They're able to fit a few surprises into a small space too!

    We had a great time doing the Alice in Wonderland escape room. The puzzles were well balanced and kept us busy without feeling overly frustrated or needing too many clues. Beautifully designed with fantastic attention to detail. Some great artistry has gone into making this escape room! Staff were excellent, very welcoming and patient at explaining everything we needed to know.
