We attempted The Deadly Discovery and enjoyed some challenging puzzles in a well designed room! We may have needed a couple of clues, Beth ensured we got just what we needed to work it out ourselves and escape with a couple of minutes to spare! Well done teams.

My partner and I did 3 rooms in one day and had an absolutely wonderful time, and escaped all 3!

The Collector's Curse was wonderfully decorated, Great White Killer was rewardingly tricky, and Deadly Discovery was a close call, but still so much fun!

Thank you so much to Beth and Jayd for running our games today! 💚

Our escape room was the Deadly Discovery, it very fun and challenging. Thank you to our game masters Millie and Jack for a great experience. Definitely going again.

We had a group of three and came through to play The Deadly Discovery, we had lots of fun and were very happy to make it out of the rooms with time to spare. The staff, Charlie and I think Drew, were really friendly and took us through the rules and explained everything really well. We will definitely be back to try more of the rooms.

Really enjoyed escaping the “deadly discovery” room today. Cool theme. Thank you to Game Master Shyra.

Will definitely be going back again

Our experience was fantastic! Our host Jack was friendly, funny and helpful! We will definitely be back!

NatalieAugust 9, 2023

We love this place

Only down fall is that we do all the rooms and then need to wait for new ones.

VickiDecember 26, 2022

Been here twice and really enjoyed it. My partner and I like to do escape rooms as date nights so have tried a few around the city. The rooms here are slightly easier on average than the other escape room company on Rundle Mall but still interesting and fun puzzles. And the bar area is great to sit in afterward and discuss your game over a drink.

Did (and solved) Deadly Discovery and the Collectors Curse. Will be back to try Great White Killer soon.

PetaAugust 18, 2022

10/10 defiantly recommend. Did the deadly discovery room and it was awesome.

Thanks to Jack who had amazing jazz hands and helped us through the rooms. Will definitely be back 😁😁😁

My wife & I have wanted to do one of these for a long time. so glad, we did. Friendly service and the Deadly Discovery was siiick.

LukeJanuary 18, 2023

We did the Deadly Discovery scenario. I was full of twists and turns. You really have to think outside the box.

SandyAugust 30, 2022

Very unique theme (The Deadly Discovery) with clever, satisfying puzzles that were just the right level of difficult. Cool waiting area. Definitely recommended!

CarolineJanuary 26, 2023

We checked into Escape Hunt Adelaide at 6pm on Friday for a surprise birthday party to do the Deadly Discovery game in 2 competing groups. Most were new to the Escape Room idea, but it was well explained and the groups got into it. Game was just the right amount of challenge - both groups falling short by only minutes!- and a perfect way to kick off an evening with friends as it gave us plenty to talk about. Thanks to the friendly staff for their hospitality and advice!

AndreiSeptember 14, 2022

It was my partner and my first experance we were a little slow to start with as we got into it we were a little quicker we still didnt make it out though,we had so much fun can't wait to bring our friends along next time HAD A BLAST.
