In the dimly lit back alleys of the bustling city, chaos ensues as Don Banano, the larger-than-life mob boss, finds himself in a pickle when his prized fortune is stolen... pointing the finger at none other than Marv the Monkey from the local circus, Banano threatens to rain on everyone's parade by shutting down the beloved spectacle unless his fortune magically reappears.
 
But fear not, for you, the unlikely hero, are thrust into this wacky whirlwind of mayhem. Your mission, should you choose to accept it (and you kinda have to), is a madcap medley of mischief. You must venture into the zany world of Marv's Circus, and try to wrangle Marv himself, retrieve the fortune, and maybe even unmask the real culprit...
 
Armed with nothing but your wits you embark on a bizzare escapade where every wrong turn leads to another hilarious hijink. With Don Banano hot on your trail and the clock ticking like a time bomb made of rubber chickens, you must channel your inner circus clown and save the day before the big top comes crashing down. So grab your popcorn and hold onto your seat, because this circus caper is about to get wilder than a barrel of monkeys on roller skates!

Another fabulous room by Escapable. I absolutely loved this room and it had a great mix of puzzles as well as original mini games. 

We had a slow start to this room that required a couple of prompts to get us looking in the right place but after that we were off. I was giddy playing this room and was racing around to make sure I could see everything. 

We didn’t need many clues but when we did they came at the perfect time: not so early that we hadn’t had a chance to try the puzzle out for ourselves and not so late that we were getting fed up. They were also subtle enough that it was just a slight nudge rather than hand holding which worked perfectly for us. 

My only minor negative with this room is that I would have liked to have known how much cash we were looking for as we could have made more use of our time in the room as we still had over 20 minutes left on the clock to collect more. 

Overall another superb room and I can’t wait to see what else Escapable have lined up in their future!

So this place has Β£10 for children in the summer holidays, making it very good value. 

Great room for Kids, (and the young at heart) with circus games and fun puzzles. Also the added interest of collecting money. 

Overall an excellent company with great hosting from Charlotte. 

Easy to park in the shopping centre multi-storey carpark.

A surprisingly not that often seen theme, coupled with some fun mini games throughout made this room good value! Good quality puzzles too!

Another great room from Escapable. This is the third room we have played from Escapable. We have never been disappointed. 

Really fun room with lots of original puzzles and funny moments. Plenty to keep a team of 5 busy. Recommended if you are in the area or tag it on to one of their other great rooms.

This was a fun game with an original concept! Would certainly recommend this game - especially for families and groups with mixed ages.
