Following reports of strange lights in the skies over Derbyshire, your team intercepts a distress signal, which leads you to an abandoned military bunker.

Once the door closes behind you, you quickly realise the signal was not all that it seemed, the bunker was not abandoned and you are not alone.

Work together as a team to solve the puzzles and escape.
The truth is in there…

Spellbound offers something a little more challenging due to its larger capacity and open style of play. Complete the puzzles in any order as you work towards one central goal.

*We're currently accepting bookings for 2 and 3 players teams, however we only recommend this for very experienced teams due to the difficulty level.

Based on a real legend of witchcraft

The Bakewell Witches were hat makers of Derbyshire. Theirs was the second largest witch trial of its time and took place our in very own city of Derby.

In the witchcraft trials of 1607, two women were convicted in Derby despite protesting innocence. For centuries, their woodland cabin remained untouched.

Now their story continues: one of mystery, deception and magic…and you will become part of the legend.

Work together as a team to solve the puzzles and escape.
Something wicked this way comes…

In an alternate timeline, the world is divided between those who have and those who have not.

For those in Utopia, life is good! Technologically advanced, every need is catered for, every wish fulfilled. Overseen by their benevolent government, the Utopians are protected from the outside dystopian world and the disease-ridden creatures that wander there.

But is all as perfect as it seems? Are there darker truths to be uncovered?

2 - 6 Players

Diffculty - 4/5

Harder than The Signal but still achievable with 2 - 5 players, Utopia is a mentally stimulating game that really gets you thinking!

A different kind of experience

With virtually no padlocks in Utopia, it offers something fresh and a little different to the average escape room.

Dystopia
Book Now

2 - 6 Players

Diffculty - 4/5

On par with Utopia, Dystopia offers something slightly more challenging than The Signal, but still achievable for groups of 2 - 5

The other side of the story

Whether you battle it out with Utopian teammates, play as a standalone game or play both in succession, Dystopia's story intertwines with its sister room. Welcome to the darker side of the divide.

Beyond the great dome of Utopia lies a desolate wasteland. Disease has ravaged the population, resources are scarce and, for those still managing to survive, life is hard.

Yet, long condemned to the darkness, the Dystopians have become resilient and determined. No longer will they accept their fate quietly and no longer will the advancements of Utopia benefit only the few.

Besides, they’ve made some advancements of their own and Utopia might just need them more than they realise.

Amazing
I went here with 2 groups for my 40th birthday. This place is amazing! The staff are very friendly and informative. We did The Signal. The best thing about this room is the choice of 2 endings. And when you escape you are shown the alternate ending. This is so unique! My other group did Spellbound and they had an amazing time too. I want to go back and do Spellbound soon! Thank you, Make Your Escape! Best birthday ever!!

Our escape!
What an excellent experience. Extremely fun and well thought. Providing a good balance of interest and challenge. I found the staff were friendly, whilst providing guidance and support in the right way. All facilities were well maintained and cleanly. Over all a fantastic experience that has left me with a real bug to do more! This would be excellent opportunity for many different occasions and all kinds of groups big or small. If presented with the chance don't turn it down

We escaped!!!
My girlfriends and I came to Make Your Escape for part of my hen night and we had an amazing time!! We loved the Spellbound room and it really bought us all together as a team - especially as not everybody knew each other and it's so challenging in a good way. The people who work there are wonderful, so helpful from booking right through to the day. Book book book - you won't regret it!!!

Fantastic Experience!
Our team of 4 played The Signal and Spellbound back to back and both rooms are fantastic. I loved the story and depth behind The Signal room and there are some great puzzles, we managed to escape and loved the twist at the end. Spellbound, just wow, absolutely my favourite room ever. It was wonderful and we all loved everything about it.

Great Fun Escaping!
We had great fun in 'The Signal' room yesterday and were really pleased to escape. The staff were very friendly and helpful - even had water provided which was not the case in escape rooms we visited in London. Great opportunity to work as a team and a real buzz when you work out clues

Game on!
As a family the 6 of us had a FABULOUS time celebrating our daughter's 21st - thank you, Joshua and team. Your warm welcome, invaluable clues and kind reassurances made for a wonderful Sunday morning. Now that I've read about the "record holders" it's game on for our next adventure with you! I thoroughly recommend you as a fantastic opportunity for families to do something different together rather than the usual eat and drink with phones and gadgets at hand!

Best birthday surprise!
Did Dystopia and Utopia with my family for my nineteenth birthday - would highly recommend to anyone who likes puzzle solving. The range of puzzles in both rooms was fantastic, needing all of us to try different things to work, but it was an absolutely fantastic experience including backstory and sound effects. We have a family tradition of doing escape rooms, and of the seven or so we've done, these two were easily two of my favourites!

Utopia V Dystopia
All 10 of our team went along to Make Your Escape last week. 5 of us braved Utopia and the other 5 Dystopia. Both rooms were challenging but using our different skills we got stuck in to the puzzles and everyone loved it! Will be back soon!
