new room now open!
In January 2024, after 6 years, our original “Da Vinci” room was replaced with BRAND NEW "The Renaissance Genius”
Already done our old Da Vinci room? Don’t worry, this completely bespoke room features all-new puzzles, plot, theming and challenges:
Your journey takes you back to 15th-century Italy, where the spirit of the Renaissance is alive, and the opportunity to become Leonardo da Vinci's apprentice awaits. Leonardo da Vinci's brilliance was unparalleled, and so are the challenges you'll face.
Think you can you decode the secrets and escape within the allotted time to prove that you are not just an ordinary visitor, but a worthy apprentice?
Room design and build by RealityWerx.
what our customers have to say about it:
“ The new Da Vinci room is really well structured and relies more on object manipulation and lateral thinking than abstract code puzzles, which I really appreciate. Lily was a genial and very clear host, also. Me and my friend had fun.”
Adam, via TripAdvisor
“It was brilliant! Minimal padlocks and plenty of puzzles/games to work through with made it so much fun!!
Can't recommend Escape Ipswich enough, we have done most of their rooms now and we've always had a warm welcome and wonderful hosts and tonight was no different, Hannah was just fabulous!!!
We can't wait to come back to try the new room coming soon.”
Hayley, via TripAdvisor
“Second visit to Escape Ipswich and enjoyed every minute just as we did before. Hannah was a great host and made the experience even more enjoyable. The Da Vinci Renaissance room was so much fun and really cleverly designed. Would 100% recommend again and again! We will definitely be returning soon.”
