📖 THE STORY

As ambulance crew at a local sporting event, you have been brought a patient who was taking part and has collapsed. She has no identity on her and no-one around is able to tell you who she is! Can you discover who she is based on the medical records of those taking part in the event and then get her to the right hospital before it’s too late?


🎯 HIT THE BULLSEYE

  • Such a unique setting - an old, unused, real ambulance parked up and ready to be explored.

  • Feeling like you are in an authentic location means your heart is already pumping and the small, unforgiving space means you have to work carefully around each other, just like in the real scenario!

  • Whilst it seems there are very few hiding places in an ambulance at first, the space has been used extremely cleverly to hide items and information you need to progress.

  • The GM takes their place in the cab of the ambulance, and at one point you will be required to interact with them in there, which was fun and unusual.

🧩 MISSED THE MARK

  • A lot of fixtures and fittings and equipment in there means you can get hung up on things that aren’t part of the game, so if it doesn’t seem to be proving useful, move on!

🏹 TAKE A SHOT?

Absolutely worth it for the unique environment - and interesting mix of searching, puzzling and deduction. There is nothing gory or scary in this experience but there are by nature medical-related items so bear this in mind if you have any sort of phobias.


ℹ️ ADDITIONAL INFO

  • This is NOT LOCATED at Escape Coalville’s main venue - it is based in a car park a short walk away - do check the website and your booking details for information on where to find the van.

  • You can park in the same car park whilst you do this experience

  • The main venue has multiple physical rooms, portable escape games and even a puzzle-hunt around the local area, so you could easily spend all day here enjoying what they have to offer.

  • And if that’s still not enough they have a range of online games to play!
