Those of a nervous disposition, look away now: Enigma Escape is a problem-solving, team-working one-hour escape challenge with a gory plot at its centre. Which we nearly didn’t tell you because we thought it might be a spoiler, then realised that the game is called ‘The Killer’. Like in most London escape games, your team of 2-5 players must, well, escape from the room you’ve been locked in by finding clues, solving puzzles and deciphering codes. ‘The Killer’ is pleasingly physical – you won’t need muscle or anything but it’s fun to be solving puzzles by actually doing things rather than just thinking really hard – and the plot makes complete sense (in a ‘True Detective’ season one sort of way, at least). Complete beginners might find themselves falling at more hurdles than advanced players, but thanks to some shocking reveals and an impressive attention to detail any team will race through their hour in Enigma Escape.
