Escape rooms are immersive, interactive games where players are locked in a themed room and must work together to solve puzzles, find clues, and accomplish specific objectives in order to escape within a set time limit. These rooms are designed to challenge participants both mentally and physically, requiring them to think critically, communicate effectively, and collaborate as a team. The themes of escape rooms can vary widely, ranging from mystery and adventure to horror and fantasy. They have gained popularity as recreational activities, team-building exercises, and social experiences, providing a thrilling and engaging form of entertainment for participants of all ages.

If you are visiting Nottingham for most of the day, the NCP Car Park at the end of Castle Boulevard / start of Collin Street offers 24 hours’ at a decent price. A reasonably priced car park, and the closest to us, is based on Upper Parliament Street from Euro Car Parks. Nearby street parking is £1.50 or £3.00 per hour. All car parking can be found here. We recommend the use of public transport and we are a few minutes walk of the city centre’s bus or tram stops, and 15-20 minute walk from the train station.

Most of the goals for a Cryptology game are not about escaping, therefore the entrance door is only locked to keep you in the game. Every locked entrance door has an emergency exit switch. Basic safety, maximum adventure!

Every game at Cryptology Nottingham is not on the ground floor meaning you'll have to go up and down stairs. Remember that every one of our games are team games, so where there may be some parts of the game where some dexterity is required, all games are written so it is not compulsory for every member to do this!
