On Thursday, we said goodbye to our longtime director James Coote. I think he would have been proud to see the community that he helped to Foster come to see his mortal remains off.

We at Escape Games want to thank everyone who was attending. If anyone has a good story about James you want to share in the comments, we would be very grateful.

Sending off Escape Games either style. Pizza, Pepsi, Board Games and the bestest pals anyone could ask for, and Matt Sharp also decided to crash the party. Sadly, there was a missing face looming over the party, but as a famous 70ft tall armour plated killing machine once said "Above all, do not lament our loss, for in my heart I know that this is not the end, but merely a new beginning. Simply put, another Transformation..."

Hey, with this being the last week, we are now putting out the full clearance sale. Things are what you are able to negotiate them for in price. All reasonable offers will be considered.

It is with great sadness that we at Escape Games say one final farewell to one of our founders. James Coote, who has been with Escape Games since the beginning, sadly passed away on 02/04/2024. We have all been devastated by this news and his loss has been felt across the entire community. He was an instrumental and invaluable part of the community, painting a number of our models we kept around, serving the customers with a smile and always keeping upbeat even when everyone around him was down. He helped get us through the worst of times and kept us strong through the best of times, infamously working 43 solid days in a row when nobody else was available to work the shop.

We also want to apologize to anyone who we weren't able to tell in person as finding out about the loss of a friend is never easy to learn about over social media, but we needed to put something to let you all know.

Rest in Power, King.

Unfortunately, Escape Games will be closed today due to staff unavailability. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

28/03/2024

Just a note to everyone. We will be closed in the morning of Good Friday, but we will be opening in the afternoon at 2pm with every intention of running Friday Night Magic, so please bring your decks for a fun night of Commander or Standard or whatever you want to play.

22/03/2024

So, due to scheduling errors and a few other problems, we have good news and will now be closing on April 21st, instead of March 24th. We will still be holding our Farewell session this Sunday, but will be back open on Monday.

20/03/2024

Just a friendly reminder to the community that Escape Games' last day is Sunday. We will be staying open for as long as people need on Sunday. So, if you have that special game that you looked at and said "I'd love to play that, but i don't have 12 hours to spend on it." Then by all means, we will keep the shop open as long as you need.

We want to send this place off with a bang.

A quick reminder to all of our community members and service users that we are closing our doors for the last time at the end of Business on Sunday 24th March. We still have a lot of things in the shop that we believe belongs to people. We would be devastated if anything was misplaced or thrown away that has monetary/sentimental value to anyone.

On a related note, we have a few things put aside for people on reservation. On Monday 18th March, those things will be put back on sale.

Pretty much, if you have anything in the shop that either belongs to you or you want to belong to you. Now is the time, because at the beginning of next week, we will have no choice but to begin the process of removing it.

Unfortunately, due to short staff, we will no longer be opening on Thursdays. We are sorry for any inconvenience this might cause.
