It's time for crime... AGAIN! Escapist have remixed and reopened their Hei$t, so we re-donned our thieving attire and took another mission from (our arch nemesis) Cousin Nicky. This episode features discussions of Bruce Willis' stink lines, the impossibility of snack-buying and Jim makes one of the most upsetting noises ever heard on the show.

To end the Halloween season, the prophecy insists that we must return... to the beginning. Over-Throne at Lilliputt Fun Zone Escape Rooms at Centre Place was the very first escape room that we did in Hamilton, and the thing that inspired us to start a podcast in the first place. So now we return to it, to revisit all the different components of this room: the ones that lit us up inside, and the ones that left us feeling cold. In many ways this room is a song... of ice... and fire...

Halloween is nearly here, and we celebrate with our second witchcraft themed room. And, if we're honest, this one may well be one of favourite room we've ever done. Or should we say... two rooms?

We have a spooky mystery for you... the case of the disappearing Halloween theme! We arrive at Confinement to find that one of the rooms we'd set aside for our Halloween theme is mysteriously not that spooky!! Okay, we didn't do our planning as well as we could but we're just vibing it out, alright? It's still a cute fun time.

Our Halloween season continues with a magical trip to Lilliputt Fun Zone Escape Rooms At Centre Place for a generic wizarding and witchcraft school-based fantasy themed room. Entirely unrelated to any other intellectual property you may be thinking of.

Also, unrelated, TRANS RIGHTS. Just while we have your attention.

We kick off our spooktacular five-week Halloween season by tackling a slasher thriller of a room at Escapist Entertainment. We get trapped in a basement! The lights go out! There are body parts! And, most importantly, we demonstrate the importance of not sucking at sucking.

This week we escaped from the very idea of rooms themselves! We tackled Quake Escape, a scavenger-hunt-crossed-with-The-Amazing-Race-style challenge that took place on the streets of Hamilton's city centre. Tune in for a discussion of garn darn tarn, a crucial Diet Coke, and far and away the most disgusting thing we've ever had to beep out.

Oh, we do like to be beside the seaside. So much so that we took a weekend away in the beachy town of Tauranga, where we did not one but TWO escape rooms, Erye's Bank at Flummox, and Down the Rabbit Hole at Escape Rooms Tauranga, then sat down with a bottle of wine to talk about both of them. Listen to a juicy extended discussion of the dialect of calculators, getting our bums kicked by second rooms, and revelations about Kirsty's close personal friends in high places.

Come now, sport, don't let the scurrilous rumours of the goings-on at Murdoch Manor scare you away. Why, we're sure there's a perfectly reasonable explanation for why those folks have gone missing. I'll be darned if the threat of being murdered keeps me away from a good scoop!

Welcome to the jungle, baby, we got escape games. And board games. Namely Jumanji. We return to (and have difficulty pronouncing) Lilliput Fun Zone Escape Rooms in Centre Place for a jungle-themed room that delights us both, despite the bruises. Also Jim hasn't seen Jumanji, what's up with that?
