 Verified Brilliant escape room, best in Yorkshire
This was our 3rd visit to Kanyu, we did Lightning in a Bottle room. It was brilliant! The best escape room we have done. Loads of puzzles, Bob was a great host. We can’t wait to visit again.

Me and my friends visited 20th March and we loved it. Our game master was hilarious and he made our experience even better. We managed to escape (with a little extra time...) and will definitely be returning to take on another! Thank you Kanyu 😊

 Verified First time escape room, will definitely be returning
My husband and I did follow in my footsteps this week. It was our first escape room so we had no idea where to start. It was loads of fun with the right amount of guidance and tips. We made it by the skin of or teeth and will be back to try the others. We really enjoyed it!

 Verified Fantastic Escape Room!
We came for a family day out and had a great time! John was our room host and did a brilliant job, had a great sense of humour and gauged how much help we needed really well! The room was great, very clever and a tough challenge. Highly recommend a visit!

Lightning in
a bottle

Sir Henry stumbled upon an amazing discovery on his travels through Africa and brought it back to his old laboratory to unravel its secrets. It proved a dangerous and difficult task – dangers and difficulties you’ll have to overcome to learn the mystery of his laboratory and escape to tell the tale.
