ESCAPE THE ROOM in the "home of the codebreakers"

The Escape Game phenomenon is slowly making its way around the UK.  Based on the Japanese computerised "Escape the room" games, it was Europe that first discovered the enjoyment - and team building benefits of a "live" version.

Teams of 2 - 6 (some London games cater for larger teams) are "locked" in a room for 60 minutes and have to find and solve clues and decipher codes and puzzles in order to "escape".  Each room has a storyline - often "Mummy's Tomb", "Sherlock Holmes/Murder Mystery" and a "Heist" in the UK please visit the extensive blog by Chris M Dickson: www.exitgames.co.uk to find games, and learn more.

LifestyleMK's Dr Audrey, along with business partner Richard Atterton, is opening the first Escape Game in the Milton Keynes Area in March.  Not only is it in the area - but it's in BLETCHLEY - where better than the "Home of the Codebreakers"!?

Audrey says "We love Escape Games, and have been playing them around the world since early last year.  When the opportunity came to open our own we jumped at it.  Ours is designed by Pfeffermind Games in Berlin, and we have been able to adapt the story with them to suit a Turing/Imitation Game styled room."

There is only one room available at the moment and it can cater for a team of 2 - 6.  Please visit the website for more information  and to book:  www.agreatescaperoom.com

This week they are offering the chance to win one of 3 FREE GAMES on Friday 18th March (6pm, 7.30pm and 9pm) for their launch weekend (details on their fb page) and all games are offered at a 20% discount on Saturday March 19th and Sunday March 20th if you type in the code LAUNCH on booking.
