Wine Escape

Our daughter and son-in-law bought us an escape wine game for Christmas, the Legend of Lochkeye. We waited, and waited, for a sunny day so we could spend an entertaining afternoon trying to get to our wine. Finally one came although true English style we had to retire indoors before long.



The game involved answering questions in four separate rooms to find four numbers for the key padlock, sounds easy eh? 


Firstly we had to work out the order of the rooms, this was very important as we discovered later. Each room had 4 cards - each having a problem card, a clue card and a solutions card.

Each card had three questions, the answers giving three numbers which when added together gave a final number .... it took us a while to get the hang of it and we did need the solution cards, mainly to check we were correct.


Over an hour later we had our answer ..... or did we?


No ... it wouldn't open ... one of our numbers was wrong. After rechecking our answers we tried again ... still wrong.

Then we remembered the importance of which order the rooms were in and yippee our much awaited bottle of Porta 6 bubbles was released. 

Such a fun afternoon, thank you Philippa and Michael 😍
