The 8 Best Room Escape Games in City of London, England

February 12, 2022 Sachiko Swiger

The crown jewels, Buckingham Palace, Camden Market…in London, history collides with art, fashion, food, and good British ale. A perfect day is different for everyone: culture aficionados shouldn't miss the Tate Modern and the Royal Opera House. If you love fashion, Oxford Street has shopping galore. For foodies, cream tea at Harrod’s or crispy fish from a proper chippy offers classic London flavor. Music and book buffs will love seeing Abbey Road and the Sherlock Holmes Museum (at 221B Baker Street, of course).

We really enjoyed the immersive experience at Enigma quests, we took part in both the school of wizardry and the bank heist rooms and thoroughly enjoyed them both! Definitely recommend for a corporate experience.

Outscape Games

Imagine an escape game with no walls, played in the streets of London. We’ve kind of turned the city into a big virtual escape room where puzzles combine real city landmarks with Augmented Reality objects.

Bought this as a birthday gift for my partner as part of our trip to London. He absolutely loves the challenge of escape rooms and is a tech geek, so this really was the perfect gift! We arrived at the location and were greeted by a friendly gentleman representing the company at the busy lounge of the hotel. He explained the plot of the game and gave us a breakdown of how it works along with some tips, showed us a demo and then answered any questions we had. We were then given an iPad and the experience began. The game took us around the vicinity of St. Paul's Cathedral, the Bank of England Museum and even to the Guildhall - we explored places we would never have thought to go out of our way to experience. The missions in the game had mixed levels of difficulty, so we we felt challenged at all times and had many a debate on how to approach the missions. I enjoyed the simpler game like challenges while my partner enjoyed the augmented reality aspects. The game isn't designed to be finished but we accomplished the 3 main missions and succeeded in many of the optional missions and extra points challenges. There were a couple of curve balls and speaking to the host afterwards made us realise we were so close to cracking them! You have a full 2 hours of actual gameplay time, which makes for good value as typical escape rooms only last an hour at best and aren't cheap. I enjoyed the use of technology, it wasn't too difficult to grasp, great for technophobes - there were a few glitches with one of the augmented reality challenges but the host told us how to reset it when we were given our brief. The 2 hours went by incredibly quick, but I guess time flies when you're having fun! This was definitely the best escape game experience I've ever had, I'm not sure regular escape rooms will cut it for me anymore. Once the 2 hours were up we headed back to the hotel where the gentleman was sat in the same spot. He asked us how it went and we ended up chatting to him for almost an hour! He was a great host and offered to buy us hot beverages. Speaking to him made me all the more grateful for the experience, he told us about how he started up the venture and his plans for expansion, the challenges and successes and I felt all the more satisfied knowing I did my bit to help a small business to achieve their dream. We thoroughly enjoyed it as a single team of 2, but it'd be more exciting if we had another team to compete with. Next time round we'll definitely be bringing our competitive friends and might make things interesting with a wager. I would definitely recommend this experience and I'll be doing this again when they release the new game! Thank you to the host for an unforgettable experience and excellent customer service!

This is the best activity to do in this situation with corona and such a fun activity. I went with 2 of my friends and we chose the game called einstein unsolved which was difficult and very unique experience.If you are looking for outdoor activity or exploring the city you should definitely try with your friends you won't regret.

Located near the Walkie Talkie building we managed to find our way to Escape Entertainment fairly easily. On arrival a couple of groups we finishing off and leaving. We were given a brief of the room and off we went, the additional rule for a clue will add a minute onto your overall time is an interesting addition, and it does help focus when trying to work out puzzles and wanting to get a good time. We managed at escape in about 43 mins (2 of us) and were rewarded with a mug and T Shirt from the hosts for our performance. We liked the photobooth style of photos for after the room, this was a novel feature and gave us photos to take away there and then. We also had a good chat with the hosts about other games, they'd done with other companies, what works well, outdoor and online escape games. I'd recommend this place, we enjoyed it and if there are only 2 it is a good price compared to other rooms where you end up paying for a minimum of 3 people.
