Me and my family were in the pirate escape room and it was challenging but super fun our helper was Oliver and he was really nice. We ended up having 1:02 seconds left and it was the most fun thing I’ve done for an inside activity.
Pirates was a challenging but fun escape room, our host Jonathan was amazing would def recommend
