Escape Rooms in Sydney Review

“My team raved about The Inheritance for some time afterwards – not only was it a well-designed room that had us scratching our heads a several points to try and solve their very clever puzzles, we also had a heap of fun along the way.

I also know from speaking with other experienced players who have tried The Inheritance that they absolutely loved it as well.

It really is a fantastic room.  My team cannot wait to head back out to Narrow Escape when they open more rooms.”

Happy Escapees

Managed to get a last minute booking and the staff was nothing but very accommodating and polite.
All rooms were challenging in the best way for all players both new and experienced.
Would recommend to family and friends.

As good as it gets! We did Inheritance room – fun, challenging and exciting! Highly recommend. Shelley and the team there are absolutely fantastic. Perfect hints and perfect post-play walkthrough. The whole experience was 5 star and up there with the absolute best of our escape room experiences around the world. Thank you! We will be back

- Jake Grasshopper

We love having a local escape room company who are not only so close, but are SO good! We have completed Inheritance and Launch as a family of four, and have really enjoyed the flow of the rooms, the puzzles, the opportunities for teamwork and those ‘aha’ moments. After completing over 80 rooms as a team, Inheritance is in our top 5. We can’t wait to try out the new room soon, as we’re sure it will be just as excellent!

- Melanie Wheatley

Incredible experience that has been so well thought out. My husband and I have done a stack of rooms in Sydney and this one was by far the absolute best. We completed the Inheritance room and the tech was mind blowing. We finished the room with 8 minutes to spare. We are a bit sad that’s it’s over and we can’t do it again. Shelley was an amazing host and we can’t wait to return! Highly recommend! 🙂

- Kass Phoenix

My group did the inheritance room and the Narrow Escape Rooms. It was so much fun! The age ranges we had were 14-33 year old. Everyone was able to participate and contribute to solving the puzzle. Highly recommend!

- Rachna Khelawan

Lots of fun! Our group of 6 was aged between 15 and 55, with some members new to escape rooms and others veterans of them. The “Inheritance” room worked well with that combination of experience, and those in the group that had done escape rooms previously rated it as one of the better ones they had done. Highly recommended!!

- Karen Schulze

The ‘Inheritance’ escape room is one of the best escape rooms we’ve tried so far. It was fun, challenging, well themed and packed with interesting puzzles. We managed to escape in time. I thoroughly recommend this room (and the ‘Undetected’ escape room – done previously) to all escape room enthusiasts. You will be amazed and have some aha moments.

- Christine Ung

I’ve done all 3 rooms here, and each one was SO fun. They provide a good challenge while not being impossible. The staff are super friendly and passionate too. Inheritance room was one of the best rooms I have ever done. Cannot recommend enough.
