We took on Seven Dwarves Mining Mission, which is based on the Snow White and the Seven Dwarves story. 

“One year has passed since the seven dwarves helped Snow White defeat the evil queen, and now they’ve retired to a quiet cottage deep in the forest.

But happily ever after is never that easy, and evil is rising once again! The evil queen’s followers plan to use the poison apple to bring about her malevolent return. Snow White has tasked you to destroy the devious fruit once and for all, and rumour has it that the only way to rid the world of its evil is to cast it into the very centre of the earth.

Now it falls to you to save the day. Answer the call, hoist your pickaxe, and prepare to dig deeper than ever before to defeat the evil queen!”

Storyline & Themeing: 9/10
Following the concept from Snow White, they had a great fairytale-like story which continued through the series of rooms. It’s not often you see themes and stories based like this and we struggle to see why. Along with the high level of detail in the themeing, you wouldn’t be disappointed with their sets.

Puzzles & Flow: 8/10
The amount of puzzles in the game is incredible. At first, you think how can you manage them all in 60 minutes but, they are at that perfect level of not being too easy but challenging. There are multiple rooms which progresses through the story. Each room has its own set of puzzles which flow well and are non-linear so it allows you to choose the order to suit.

Uniqueness: 7/10
Whilst the game is a typical escape room, they have a few very unique puzzles along with a rare type of theme of the game. We love it has a more family friendly feel compared to the more typical dark theme we see more often in escape rooms. 

Overall, Seven Dwarves Mining Mission was a fantastic fairy tale themed experience which was enjoyed virtually. Whilst the room has had to have some minor changes, the room does not disappoint in any aspect and to be playing a Canadian escape room whilst not being in Canada itself, is pretty cool. We loved the range of puzzles they could offer throughout the 60 minutes and how engaging it all was. A challenge for 2 players but with more people, you can destroy the apple much quicker than we did. We completed the mission with just over 7 minutes spare!

We have to say a massive thank you to Liz who hosted our game alongside the rest of the Improbable Escapes team for allowing us to play & review this experience. Fancy joining in with this fairy tale experience? You can by heading to their website and booking directly!
