Escape Rooms in Wickford
Wickford is often overlooked as itโs surrounded by larger and well known towns and cities, yet it has a signficant history. Thereโs evidence suggesting tribal activity at Wickford thousands of years ago. Perhaps also overlooked given the bigger neighbours, there is a great escape room in Wickford.
For my birthday in 2023 we visited a the lovely Keylock Games in Wickford, and played their Unfair Funfair escape room. Owner designed and operated there are some unusual puzzles in this escape room and a great mix of codes, keys and locks. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Keylock also have Clue Did It? which is a classic Whodunnit and their latest escape room Nobody Loves Robot which customers have recommended to me. (Iโve not had chance to play these two games yet, but Iโll be heading back soon.)
With the escape room scene growing so fast itโs not surprising that there are now many chains that franchise their games across the country. While some of those are great there can be a tendency to focus on style over substance. Glossy props first, puzzle quality second. The opposite is generally true of owner designed rooms. The focus is first and foremost on quality and unusual puzzles and the flow of the room. As a general rule of thumb, these rooms always punch above their weight. Given the choice between franchised or independent I think the independent is always the better bet. Keylock is no exception and are definitely worth a visit or three. Weโll be along to mend that Robot soon and Iโll amend this page when Nigel is happy again!
I opened our Virtual Reality Escape Rooms near Wickford not solely because Iโm a VR fan, but because Iโm a big fan of escape rooms! Iโm fortunate to have some of the best escape rooms near me. Thankfully Iโve got a couple of Wickford Escape Rooms still to play, but if youโd played all the local games or fancy something similar but different please come and give a Virtual Reality escape room a go. With several to choose from and at least one new one a year weโll keep you busy! Take a look at our escape rooms here
