Cluetopia – Runaway Rudolph – 7.5/10

Ipswich

It’s Christmas Eve everything is running smoothly. WAIT! Something is wrong. Rudolph is missing. All the other Elves are busy making presents. Only your team of Elf recruits can find Rudolph and save the day! Can you save Christmas?

Played December 2022

K’s 100th room!

Our second game of the day at the Ipswich branch of Cluetopia (once was Tricky Escape) and we were getting warmed up now! Candy Cane gave us a perfectly on theme welcome and intro so we were all pumped to solve the mystery of where Rudolph was.

As a Christmas room the difficulty of puzzles was mixed to cater for all the family and the style was quite traditional with lots of boxes to unlock. Everything fitted nicely with the theme and a latter part of the room had some especially fun immersive bits in. 

The 5 of us had plenty to keep us occupied in the room and there was room/scope for more people but I think up to 10 (as per the website) might be a bit much – max of 7 I think or you won’t get to experience much of what’s going on.

As my 100th game I wasn’t sure how I felt about it being a Christmas themed room but I have to say it was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed it! Looking forward to Xmas jumper season now. 🙂

After this room we popped next door to https://bin93uk.square.site/ which was a lovely little unique wine bar (also did lots of great beers). We were warmly welcomed by the host and sat on comfy arm chairs with complementary sacks. Highly recommended for a break between rooms or a celebration when you’re all escaped out!
