The Infinite Escape Room

A peaceful pint at The Legless Elf (Pubisode)

Having saved Christmas from geographically diverse criminal gangs, we kick back in the Legless Elf pub to sup some mead, shoot the breeze about the rooms we solved, and share some of our recommendations for the month.

A Very Criminal Christmas: The Cymraeg Collective

In the finale to our Christmas special, the last of the world's most regionally diverse mafias set the gang on a hunt across the maps. Google Maps to be precise. Will Santa be able to call in a surgical strike from low earth orbit, or will it be mandatory Welsh coal for all the kiddies this Christmas?
Join Mike, Mairi and Jamie as they battle internet vandal Jon's fiendish doings.

A Very Criminal Christmas: Yorkshire Nanageddon

Having...solved... Jamie's Kiwi Confederacy the gang face off against Mairi's eldritch horror of the Yorkshire Nanas. Never fear though, they've got plucky, capable and ... disposable ... elves to help them through.

A Very Criminal Christmas: The Kiwi Confederacy

It's the first in our 2024 Christmas series, where the gang try and stop internationally typecast mafias from destroying Christmas.
This week, Jamie presents Mike, Jon and Mairi with a nail biting conundrum - are the New Zealand Mafia really bad enough to go on the naughty list, or is all fair in love and garotte wire?

Uhms, Puns and Lint. Farewell Ben. (Grumbledown Pubisode)

This is the final episode in our Grumbledown series, in which the team successfully assassinated the predatory schoolmasters of Grumbledown's Preparatory Something or other for the whatsits...we never did quite figure out the name.
Having dispatched the Latinmaster, we adjourne to the pub, The Post Plutius. Jon attempts to blind himself, Mike makes excuses for getting his Latin wrong, Jamie makes it all look easy and we all take some time to enjoy Ben's greatest hits.
This is Ben's final episode of The Infinite Escape Room, certainly as a producer, though I'm sure we'll tempt him back as a solver some day!
This episode features: Ben, Mike, Jamie and Jon

Latin, Lasso and Steer (Grumbledown Part 3)

With two School Masters down the team are assaulted by an old flatulent man wielding a Gladius-Blunderbus. It can only be the Latin Master. Listen along as they wrestle not only with a dead language, but the incompetence of their Puzzle Master as well.
There is a cannon and at the end of all this someone is getting fired out of it.
This episode features: Jon, Mike, Ben and Jamie.

"At you." - (Grumbledown Part 2)

Last week the team dispatched the Latin master at Grumbledowns Preparatory School For the Monetarily Advantaged. No sooner has his Peppermint Poisoned corpse hit the ground then the team dive into the Chemistry Lab to dispatch their next school master. Much hinges in this episode, as so often in history, on the placement of a comma, and the interpretation therof!
 
And cheese. Lots of cheese.
