Escape Reading offers three themed escape rooms designed for groups of 2–6 players. You have 60 minutes to search for hidden compartments, secret passageways and clues, solve puzzles, crack codes and cyphers to find the code that lets you escape. The rooms—The Ram Raid, Age of Magic, The Kidnapped, The Vampire Slayers and Blown Away—are spread across two Reading town centre locations. There's also a brand new 90-minute immersive experience available.
