This Title Contains Two Klues Xactly

This picture might have more to it than it seems.
Don't try her Sunday name.


Always better without ice, isn't it?

 Go green before you see red. Green can be a mixed up colour sometimes. Red is more orderly.

Full decrypt:

Last weekend Fliss and I went with some friends to escape newcastle, which turns out to be a place rather than a suggestion. This is one of those places where they lock you in a room with some puzzles, and you can’t escape until either you work out where the key is, or a full hour elapses.

And it’s great. The puzzles are fairly simple, but there’s a harder room available after you’ve proved your mettle in what we can fairly term “easy mode”. even with the difficultly bar so low, though, few groups (less than 1%) manage to get out without any clues at all (there’s a big tv screen in there where clues flash up if you’re taking too long to figure something out) so there’s that to aim for.


Did we manage to get out without clues? Well, sort of. Actually we needed three, but every single one of them was about how to open the various forms of lock we came across, after we’d already found the actual combinations but couldn’t seem to get them to work. At a bare minimum i’d say a fifth of our time (about forty five minutes) in the room involved trying to get weird types of padlock to actually spring. Next time we’ll be bringing someone whose fingers actually work.

Still, very much recommended. at around £17 a person, it’s quite pricey for what is at most an hour’s entertainment, but it’s the sort of thing that pretty much guarantees you’ll want to relive it at length, so in that sense the price doesn’t feel entirely extortionate.

Nice work.

Dan likes puzzles... They're like power squats for the mind!

I'm delighted you feel my blog is a place you can squat productively.
