Can You Escape? Operation Hero Mission: York Review: March 2018
An exciting, electric and engaging experience in the centre of York, escape room brand “Can You Escape?” provide you the opportunity to become a super hero legend in their new game Operation Hero.
The Force Four superheroes, Torus, Oculo, Hermes and Badger, have been stripped of their superpowers and it is up to you to stop the evil baddy Mobius taking over York city centre.
Our game master James the Flush prepared us for battle to use our skill, strength of mind and inner super hero powers to complete our mission, save force four and grab our slice of victory.
Team name decided; Fire Foxes, and my personal superhero name chosen; Forkward Fire Flame, it was time to don the superhero cape and mask and prepare for a battle like no other. Without giving too much away, this high tech filled room had gadgets and games galore to get your heart and mind pumping.
A truly unique, exhilarating and immersive “must do” experience right in the heart of York City. Are you a Superhero and Can You Escape?
Thank you for reading 😊

I’ve heard of escape games like this, but have yet to try one out. They look like a ton of fun, especially when it involves superheroes. I have to say that I have a special place in my heart for them. When my son was little I made him capes for all of his favorites. The Green Hornet, Captain America, The Hulk, Spiderman. I was always partial to Wonder Woman, but as he reminded me, she didn’t wear a cape. I just told him she didn’t wear a cape that he knew of! xx
