Adrenaline Escape Atherton,

Bolton Old Road, Atherton, Manchester M46 9FD

"The place is very atmospheric with it being an old mill. I have only done one room and t was pretty good. It would have been a 5 star if we have not had to make a big leap in one of the clues. Totally recommend though."

"We have done many other escape rooms in the past which have been much better than this for the same price. The puzzle in the room was good but there were a lot of things that ruined our experience. The main thing was that the staff appeared uninterested and keen to leave for the day. We were shown to our room on arrival and told to read the instructions. No members of staff or the instructions actually detailed how we would know when we have 'escaped' so it was a bit anti climatic when we did escape. The instructions said if we need a clue we have 3 chances to hold a 'help' sign to the camera to get a clue. We used this twice, on both times, nobody was watching the camera so after 5 mins of holding it up we had to go out of the room where they panicked to try and scrabble together a clue- the clue then being miles behind where we were in the game because they hadn't been watching! This was then followed by the member of staff entering the room and reading out the list of answers until we got to where we were. On both occasions that she entered, we had to tell her to leave again as she was revealing too many answers (I assume to hurry us along). We finished with 10 minutes to spare but the staff did not realise. When we went out to say we were finished, the staff had coats on and were ready to lock up. The room itself could have done with some TLC to make it a bit more dramatic and fun. Overall, quite unprofessional and we left feeling we had wasted our money."

"Brilliant! Brilliant! Brilliant! Me and a few mates went here a couple of Saturday's ago and had a great time. "The cabin" was a great escape room. We got talking to the owner and he is a proper decent bloke. We'll be going back soon to try another escape room."
