My partner and I did their first room, Espionage, a few years ago when The Cipher Room opened. Since then, it has been the standard that we have measured every other escape room against. We have been out of the country for a few years but were very excited to come back and try another one of their rooms. We recently came back and completed The Marlowe Hotel and were almost a tiny bit worried as we had held Espionage in such high regard that we might judge it unfairly. Fortunately I can say that everything we loved about the first one was replicated for us here! The Marlowe Hotel is just as carefully executed and well-thought out, there is care and precision in terms of the theming and story-telling elements and we were just as impressed! As far as difficulty goes, their puzzles are challenging without being frustrating and even if you get stuck, the welcoming game masters (who watch you throughout the whole run) will jump in to offer help and suggestions so that you don't get stuck. I would recommend this place to anyone from complete beginners to experienced escapees. One of the best parts is that they typically offer better locks/puzzles than a lot of other escape rooms, which leave you with a sense of satisfaction and plenty of good "Aha!" moments. To conclude I would still comfortably say that The Cipher Room is the absolute best set of escape rooms in Sydney and we are very excited to get back and try their other room, The Cabin and whatever else they dream up in future! Thank you again to the friendly staff and the minds behind the different themes and puzzles!

From the owner: An escape room is a physical adventure game in which players are placed into a specifically…read moredesigned room and must use various elements within the room to solve a series of puzzles and escape within a set time limit. Each room has its own unique theme and story line, which players must follow in order to gather clues. The clues are designed to be solved in a particular order and should ultimately lead to your escape. Each room requires different forms of critical thinking, pattern recognition and problem solving. Therefore, to escape the room within the time limit, all players should aim to work together and communicate with each other. Expedition Escape Rooms first opened in the heart of Canberra city with three rooms before opening up the Redfern location. More information can be found at: Expedition Escape Room Canberra.

From the owner: Mission Room Escape Sydney is an actual simulation of puzzle games(escape the room/room escape)…read morewhere the objective is to escape the room by your brain. We make it more than just a game but whole new unique experience by adopting the latest technologies ,giving you endless surprises. When the game starts, you will become part of a story that is based on the theme you have selected. Typically you will be locked in a special chamber. From there, you are required to escape by a certain time. In order to escape, you will need to harness your wits and exercise your resourcefulness. For example, if you found a message next to a statue that said, "I am looking for sunshine," it may be clue for you to turn the statue's head towards the window. Success! A blank door opens and leads you into another room where you will solve the next puzzle piece. Some of the challenges require teamwork, so you and your friends will need to work together. Mission Real Life Room Escape is a fun and challenging bonding experience for friends and family.

There was some miscommunication during the party booking and the time slot stated in the email was only for the game part and not the entire party package - that could be improved. They did try to make that right though, so no star deduction from me for it. My child has played both available games and enjoyed them both. Now if only they had more games to play! I'm sure that's coming in the not-too-distant future.
