Description:

Story-driven, multi-room, and ultra-immersive. Ruins: Forbidden Treasure is a whole new kind of escape room. Your journey begins aboard a rusty (and hopefully trusty) propeller plane piloted by the plucky Captain Theodore MacManus. Captain Mac has always dreamed of the Ehlari treasure buried deep in the ancient ruins but has never found it. Can you?

First time at one of these types of thing. Made it out with 5 minutes to spare so it was pitched at just the right level. Great fun.

I've never done an escape room before but it was actually really fun! The place was clearly well organised and the staff were friendly and professional.

Had a very enjoyable hour here and it was a lot more difficult than I thought it was going to be, will definitely go again.

The staff were very friendly and welcoming

Amazing and well organised. Thouroughly enjoyed ourselves and was well worth a go. Would recommend booking well in advance and doing multiple rooms in a day

The Ruins room was great! The sound effects made certain moments more intense. There was a clever mechanism that surprised the whole group. We kept second‑guessing our ideas. It turned into a memorable group activity.

The environment encouraged us to explore every corner. There was a clever mechanism that surprised the whole group. At one point we were completely convinced we had missed something obvious. We didn't escape but still had a great time.

We chose TEG after seeing good online reviews. The atmosphere helped everyone stay focused on the story. A hidden detail ended up being the key to progress. Our group kept talking about it afterward.

We decided to try this escape room with my family on Saturday. The setting felt carefully planned. A puzzle near the end had everyone participating. There was a surprising twist halfway through. We solved the final puzzle right at the end.

A few coworkers and I stopped by as part of our travel plans. The atmosphere helped everyone stay focused on the story. Several clues were easier once we slowed down and looked carefully. We escaped with only seconds remaining.

Our group came here while meeting friends we hadn't seen in a while. The sequence of challenges felt well structured. We nearly overlooked an important clue early on. Our group kept talking about it afterward.

My partner and I visited after seeing good online reviews. Several clues were easier once we slowed down and looked carefully. There was a surprising twist halfway through. We didn't escape but still had a great time.

This escape room delivered a very entertaining challenge. The challenges rewarded patience and teamwork. The attention to detail made the room convincing. The ending reveal was very satisfying. I would recommend trying it with a group of friends.
