Monopoly Lifesized — Attraction in London

Bit of a rip off. It was fun, and lots of people online have likened it to boardgame cross escape room, but there was lots to be improved and it was not worth the price. £59 per person (including booking fee which is charged per person rather than per booking) for teams of 6 and it's not like an escape room where if there are fewer of you that's fine, it means anyone may book to join your group. That £59 doesn't even cover cloakroom/ somewhere to leave your bag, like less money would for an escape room. Seems ridiculous that you have to pay for this on top. And then to be told at the cloakroom that if you don't pay then you can't take your bag off at all in the game. Also if you win at the end, the prize is a discount at the bar, trying to force you to spend even more money.

We did the "luxury board". The rooms in the game are TINY. Definitely avoid if claustrophobic. Absolutely not big enough to fit 6 people, went as a group of 5 (3 small females and 2 average sized males) and could barely fit in most of the rooms and in one of the rooms the 5th person literally had to stand in the doorway without closing the door. Then the game and board itself isn't a session just for your group, it's with 3 other groups of random people. The board is really small and the game is barely any rounds (I think we went round a 3x3 board 1.25 times with fairly high rolls and this also means you don't actually get to try all the challenges). The game works around a very abridged monopoly board (1 of each colour) and rooms for each property. When you land on a property, you need to pass the challenge room to buy it, or if someone else already owns it and you have to pay them, then you can earn some money back if you also pass the room. You don't do a game room every turn. Every other turn is rolling and moving and if you land on a property you do a mini challenge room which is fun (some really should've had a whiteboard or paper in the room to use). The turns in between are either doing a challenge (chance card, rather than when you land on a certain space) to try and win money (one was a crossword) or building a house/hotel). Building the house/hotel involved you matching irregularly shaped blocks to build it, but even when these are supposedly in the right place, they don't actually line up properly. I don't really think this should have taken the place of a turn. Also at the start of this they make a representative from each group do an embarrassing impression competing to win a bonus (e.g. free house build) and that's in front of strangers, not just within your group.

Went for the novelty and was fun but I don't think I'd recommend.

The 2 actors running the sessions were really enthusiastic and helpful though and got...

Went in september for a birthday. I was a last minute addition and got to pay a bit less which was nice. I joined our group making it 5 of us, yet for some weird reason you told us we’d have a special guest. It was just another guy who wanted to play. He was polite and told us how he loved playing this Lifesized game often. What confused me was then there was another group of only two people. Why did your staff not allow him to join their team? The actual game was really confusing. Not explained very well. We were given different ‘roles’ however the only one actually used was the dice roller which was the bday girl for us. Otherwise, the random guy in our team kept taking control of everything. We were happy for him to give us tips but he just kept doing everything and not giving us a chance to have a go ourselves. For example, one mini game was a teeny tiny room where you had to place jigsaw pieces. The two girls in our group could only fit so they were doing it all but this random guy kept taking pieces without them realising so I had to let them know. Sometimes it also appeared the two staff members were ignoring us when we tried to call out for the activities we did in the middle when the other two teams were in the rooms. It was a very noisy atmosphere so very hard to keep track of what was going on. My team ended up getting third place and to no surprise, the fourth place was the two people who clearly had a lot of trouble and could have had help from our random party member to make it fairer. Though it makes me think, did they refuse him on their team? Wish we could have too without it coming across as offensive to the lone player. Our team was big enough as it was. Will never do this again as not worth the money. All we got in the gift shop was the digital picture taken at the start of our group minus the rando guy. All three teams that didn’t obvs get first place received a 10% discount on drinks in the bar but really wasn’t worth it so didn’t bother as it would likely be overpriced anyway.

TLDR; not worth the money or experience as had random guy do every activity for us. No clue what the heck was going on and got...

I’d like to share some feedback regarding our recent experience: Game Duration Too Short The one-hour game felt rushed — for £59 per person, the experience seemed over-priced. We barely had time to get into the rhythm before it ended. In each room, we had only about 2 minutes to solve a challenge, which made it feel more like a warm-up than a full experience. Group Pricing Feels Unfair We spent £1,352 for our group, but only received a £65 discount, which is quite minimal for a large booking. Additionally, charging per person feels excessive for group events like this. Pricing per team would be more reasonable, especially when a group books out multiple slots. For example, our group of 13 could be booked as: o 2 teams (6 and 7), or o 4 teams (3, 3, 3, 4) In both scenarios, the price remains the same, even though booking more teams results in more staff effort and operational cost for you — yet no advantage or flexibility is passed on to the customer. 3 Duplicate Question Boards We played both the Classic Board and the City Board, and the question boards were identical in both games. This made the second game feel repetitive and uninspired. We recommend updating and differentiating the content between games to ensure each experience feels fresh and unique.

4 Insufficient Staffing in City Board During the Classic Board, there were three staff members supporting the game. However, for the City Board — which is a more challenging game — there were only two staff. As a result: • We did not receive timely hints, unlike during the Classic Board. • Hints were only given toward the very end, when it was too late to make a meaningful impact. This made the game more frustrating than enjoyable.

Restaurant Booking and Food Quality The restaurant booking was prepaid and non-refundable, which we were not fully aware of in advance. Unfortunately, the food was quite average and overpriced, especially when compared to the many excellent dining options nearby. We would recommend allowing cancellations for meals, or at the very least, offering greater flexibility and...
