The company website describes the experience as “fast-paced, for 2-30 players.
“In our series of unique games, each group is placed in a room and given a set amount of time to escape by solving puzzles, using strategy, creativity and logic.
“The goal is simple – to get out in time!”
The website said that the recommended age for its games is eight years and older, and that each team must have one player over the age of 18.
The company website features games called V90, Cludeo, The Dark Arts and Valhalla, and offers two to 12 players the chance over a 60 minute time limit to face up to each room’s challenge.
On its Facebook site, Mindlock Escape Rooms posted photographs of customers who have successfully made their way out of the rooms, many of whom showing their recorded times.
In October 2024, Mindlock York posted on its Facebook page that comedians Ed Gamble and Chloe Petts joined them for a couple of games before their show in York, playing the Cluedo and V90 rooms.
As of April 14, 880 reviews on Trip Advisor give Mindlock Escape Rooms a score of 4.9/5.

“With a 12-year-old and a 10-year-old we chose the easiest one, and they were able to join in.
“The staff member was very friendly and helpful.
“We would definitely return to try another.”
