So I've done 2 rooms with my partner (both escape room fans), and we've had lots of fun with each!! We managed to finish baaaarely in the nick of time on the pirate one (very challenging!) and we had around 15 minutes to spare on the pipeworks one. Overall the pirate one felt a bit higher quality but both were very fun, and they have new experiences come periodically. The staff are very polite, respectful, and clear, giving you what you need to take on the rooms. I was also pleasantly surprised that unlike some puzzle rooms that put you with strangers if you book the same slot, each booking here is a private booking, meaning only your party will play. So it's good for a date!
My boyfriend and I came to Puzzle Effect for a fun date day and had a great time! We chose the Amnesia room and were really impressed. The staff was super friendly, got us checked in quickly, and explained the rules clearly. They gave us a heads-up about a directional lock (which we always ask about since they can be tricky), but reassured us that their version wasn’t overly complicated—and they were right. We powered through the first room and unlocked all five puzzles in about 10 minutes. Once we entered the second room, the real challenge began. It definitely tested our teamwork and communication, but that’s what made it so fun. We managed to solve all but one of the remaining puzzles without using any hints, and we escaped with about two minutes left on the clock, not bad for one of their more difficult rooms! Afterward, we took our victory photos and were given a discount code for our next visit. We’re already planning to come back for the Cursed Sea room. Highly recommend Puzzle Effect if you’re looking for a well-run, challenging, and fun escape room experience!

As a first-time escape room player, this place was a great experience. Justin explained what to expect for gameplay and how the hint system works really well so we all felt prepared to puzzle it out. We went with a group of six, and that felt like a good number for teamwork! I would come back again as Justin made it a great experience being attentive to us as we tried to work out the clues, and there are a bunch of rooms we looked at that are really different than the first one we played. 5/5!!
My husband and I had another great experience at Puzzle Effect. This was our second visit, and this time we did the Emerald Seas room...so much fun! The room is challenging, but if you stay focused it's definitely achievable. The decor is great, and there are several fun, non-traditional puzzles. We have done dozens of escape rooms all over the world, and Puzzle Effect ranks really high for us. Plus, the staff are just great. Two thumbs up from us!
This is so much fun and was our second time going. My kids (17 & 13) had a great time! The rooms are well designed with their themes and the staff are all really friendly. Sam, our game master, was especially nice. She explained everything well and in a way that was fun for the atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back again!
