About

The Inventor's Vault

“An escape room that manages to be actually funny, exciting, obscure and unlike anything you've every played before” — read more

A hidden vault has been found in the basement of an empty house by the new owner. The house has a dark history that means the vault should contain untold riches which you can share if you can help unlock it!

Unfortunately, the owner has tripped the alarm with too many incorrect codes, and it will be self-incinerate (?) in 50 minutes. If you can help crack it, using the clues hidden around the house, and unravel the mystery of the previous owner's fate, then the spoils will be shared. But if you fail, it will be lost forever!

All players play as one team over Zoom; friends and family of all ages must work together to progress. You can use the same computer or a separate handset/tablet to solve the clues.

However, it’s not as simple as it sounds. As the game progresses, the challenges get harder and you may need to complete challenges in your own home to reveal the next stage. There’ll also be live changing scenes throughout which you'll need to solve the mystery.

This live action escape room is hosted by professional award-winning comedian Stephen Grant so it will be madcap, complex, and memorable!

Make sure you've got your thinking hats on! Overall difficulty rating 4/5.

It's extrememly fun with a wonderful host.

It's extremely fun to play. Smart puzzles and a witty/funny host make this online escape room a joy to play.

Great fun and just the right level for us!

We played as a team of 12 on the medium level and didn’t require TOO many hints. Made it out with about 1:40 spare however.... Great fun and everyone got involved. The clues and way you interact are really well thought out, and the host was great in supporting with clues and being patient whilst working out what software we could use due to company restrictions!

Great Host....Fun Game!

I booked this as a team building event not knowing what to expect. Stephen was a great host, really responsive with the booking enquiry and helpful with accommodating the online platform we can use through work. The escape room itself worked really well with the technology being easy to use and allowed different team members to work independently on clues if needed. The game was tricky to solve and kept us on our toes, Stephen guided us through and was an integral part of the game. Really well done and I would thoroughly recommend!

Fantastic

My whole group loved this game and we'd done a few others before and found them mostly disappointing. Not this one! It's as close to a real escape room as you can get. Highly recommended.

That really worked well and our team had a great time. Stephen is a great host too.

Watch out for the red herrings! Ha Ha!
I cannot wait to get my friends playing this. It's not easy but they will love it.

Great game

I've attended many escape rooms but this was my first time doing once virtually and it did not dissapoint.

We played the game in a large group but everyone was still able to get involved and automatically we ended up splitting up and taking on separate tasks simultaneously. There were different types of clues and skills required which meant everyone could be involved.

Even though it was virtual it didn't lose its interactivity. We were able to do the puzzle and type the code in the keypad.

Really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend to others.

Fun, engaging and unique. Everything you'd want from an escape room and a virtual event!

I would really recommend having a go at this Escape room. The level of detail and challenges keeps the game going along nicely.

The technology used makes it really simple to follow which is quite hard to do for online events.

Me and my team had a great time taking part in this!

Thank you!

Stephen was an engaging host with a really clever variety of puzzles and clues for us to sift through. Great interactive tech let us work together in our team and crack the vault!
