I loved it!! This was such an immersive and fun experience.. from the second we got there it didn’t feel like I was in the center of Truro, it was surprisingly atmospheric as soon as I got to the bottom of the stairs. Melissa was great, she was so enthusiastic and helped us feel instantly excited and ready for the challenge. I don’t want to give anything away, but you really feel like you’re in the story. Myself and my daughter (10years old) did the life after death room, we’ve never done an escape room before. We were both so into it, I could have happily spent hours in there doing it- also in part because I wasn’t very good… I thought I’d got to the last room so was very casual and just took my time and then realised there was way more left to do and ran out of time. We had a couple of clues, they were really cool too because you still had to figure it out, it just kind of nudges you in the right direction. We unfortunately did not complete it, but that really didn’t take away from the experience, it was so much fun and so clever, it was great to do something different!

Definitely recommend going, the more people you have the easier it will be but two people is still fun and doable and if you’re going with a child like I did that’s also still doable, just be thorough. My daughter loved it and did really good. I can’t wait to come and try...
Read moreOur festive escape room experience "Operation Mince Pie" at Enigma Escape Room in Truro, Cornwall, was absolutely superb. Set in an air-raid shelter during Britain’s Blitz, the atmosphere was immersive and full of festive charm.
The experience was cleverly devised, brilliantly put together, with hilarious props and nostalgia, challenging us to complete 12 tasks within an hour. It called upon all our individual skills, making it a true family team effort. Without giving too much away, the puzzles and tasks were creative, engaging, and satisfying to solve. Best of all—we succeeded and earned our mince pies!
Our host Imy was fantastic—welcoming, professional, knowledgeable, and had a great sense of humor. She was always on hand via the screen to offer helpful clues if needed, which added to the experience without ever feeling intrusive.
We’d highly recommend "Operation Mince Pie" (or any of their rooms) to families, friends, or anyone looking for a fun and wholesome group activity. It’s a perfect blend of challenge, teamwork, and...
