📖 THE STORY

"Revenge of the Sheep" draws you into a comic-book-style battle of good vs evil—the fate of the world is hanging in the balance and it’s up to you to save it!. You must foil the plans of clueQuest’s reoccurring villain - Professor Blacksheep and his evil side-kick. They’ve invented a “SheepMutator” capable of transforming any human within range into a meek, compliant sheep. You’ve only got 60 minutes to locate and disarm the series of SheepMutator devices that they are on the verge of unleashing on the world. Save us all from an ovine future!


All of the escape rooms at clueQuest (the longest running escape game company in the UK!) chronicle the struggle between the undercover crime-fighting agency led by Mr. Q. (resident hero and yellow mouse) and his nemesis Professor Blacksheep, but don’t worry, it’s easy to jump right in. You can start with any of the games and follow the storyline. A friendly and enthusiastic game master will tell you all you need to know.


🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • We booked a Tuesday morning time slot and arrived to find the place buzzing. With multiple rooms for each of their games, the clueQuest facilities can accommodate many bookings and/or large groups. The lobby spaces are atmospheric and our game master had great energy, which set the perfect tone for the important task at hand, i.e. saving humanity!

  • The game packs a lot of puzzling into a fairly compact footprint. The standout elements in the room are the industrial-grade custom props that bring tactile realism and hold surprises within.

  • The cartoonish visuals and whimsical gadgets you encounter feel perfectly at-home in the universe they’ve created, and enable you to throw yourself into the game’s plot line. In fact, we preferred the gadgety, mechanical elements of the room over the high-tech elements that didn’t integrate as cohesively.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • We were given a walkie talkie to engage directly with our game master. We found the audio quality made it difficult to understand and frequently had to ask our game master to repeat themself.

  • There were a lot of small keys to keep track of. At one point, we got ourselves stuck because we thought we'd already used one of the many keys when we actually hadn't.

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

"Revenge of the Sheep" delivers a charming premise, a compelling experience from the second you walk through the door, and novel puzzles and set elements. With two players, there was a lot to get done and this room kept us on our toes and got us excited to play more of the clueQuest escape rooms.


ℹ️ ADDITIONAL INFO

  • There is no designated parking available. They are less than a 15-minute walk from the nearest underground station.

  • Team memorabilia is available for purchase after your game.

  • clueQuest has a meeting space. They’ll work with large groups and offer team building programs.
