Great Family Time!!
We had a great time at The Enchanted Candy Forest escape room! We found the room challenging but not too hard. We liked that the story set the scene and was engaging. Staff were also great to deal with.

Amazing
Had the absolute best time!! We came here whilst travelling 2 years ago and absolutely loved it. So when on this current visit to beautiful Aotearoa we knew we had to come back. My wife and I love escape rooms and try to do at least one wherever we travel in the world. Confinement is the best escape rooms we have ever done anywhere. So much so, we did all 4 of their escape rooms and also their outdoor scavenger hunt on this visit. The rooms are so clever and thrilling to complete and the staff are amazing. So friendly, kind and genuinely want you to have a great experience. I would like to thank Deiryn, Emily and Maia for all of their hand work and for helping make our visit so happy and memorable. We will be back again for sure on our next visit. Cannot recommend this place enough.

Great Escape Room
Had a great time with the family, staff were good, friendly and professional. Room was laid out well and challenging enough for us without being too frustrating! Will be back again next time we are in Taupo.

Disappointing
Disappointing experience. Our experience at the escape room started off delayed because someone had forgotten to reset one of the locks. Then many issues ensued, ranging from an incorrect lock being used to mechanical failures. Our entire experience was ruined because when we couldn't solve something, we didn't know if it was because we weren't on the right track or if something went wrong... again.
From The Enchanted Candy Forest - Escape Room Taupō
Hi Ashley, Thank you for bringing this to our attention and for dicussing this further over email, feedback in valuable to us and allows us to learn from it and move forward. We hope that if your ever find yourselves in Taupō again you can pop in and see us. We would love to redeem ourselves! Thank you for being very kind as well through all of this, as I said in my email these types of reviews are genuinely heartbreaking as we put a lot of care and effort into the business, so I appreciate you taking the time to reply and understand. All the best Ashely. Kind regards, Deiryn
