Sacré bleu! This week's episode sees Ben and Laura attempt to make an explosive exit from the smelliest of prisons - a bath bomb shop! Cue Jamie's ropey European accents, left socks and flavoursome soaps. Did you find our cheeky little Easter egg in this episode? Let us know on Twitter or Facebook if you did! And yes, Jamie does say "audio descriptions for the hard of hearing' at one point. And no, he didn't realise what he'd said until it was much, much too late. If you enjoyed listening to thi...

This week join Ben, Danny and Alan as they find themselves caught in Mike's Machiavellian scheme of treachery, betrayal, and some very unsubtle puzzles. Mike was revoltingly pleased with himself for this one. Spoiler alert! If you want to be in on the joke from the beginning then read on... This is the message Ben, Alan and Danny received before the recording: Hope you don’t mind but I’ve got a cheeky request. For the recording tonight, you have a super secret mission. You are a saboteur, and it...

Don't let the title fool you. Jon does his best to be dark and creepy while the others consistently undermine him with gags about buttocks, scarecrows, and the many ways in which an abandoned car with a birds nest growing in it might no longer be road worthy. Oh and there's bodies. Lots of bodies. This episode included a sound effect used under the Creative Commons License. The License can be found here . The sound effect can be found here.

In this Episode, Jamie takes Mike, Laura and Dom in to the Oubliette of a pop culture classic, where he confounds them with an infuriatingly well constructed puzzle.

A long, long time ago, we did a corporate gig. We also did a rehearsal with some friends and family and, by way of thanks, we offered them the chance to choose a venue for a future episode. They chose Madamme Tussauds. What could be more charming than an idle wander through the wax works of this great institution, respectfully looking, not touching (and definately not stabbing, Alan), adhering to all signage and staying on our side of the venerable velvet rope. What indeed... =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= T...

There's some dodgy capitalisation in that title...ho hum! This week Ben is joined by special guests Lee and Adam from The Average Games podcast as Mike takes them through an apocalyptic board game cafe.

Go check them out at Wreckage RPG and Geeks Journal for dessert. Finally, if you enjoy the episode, why...

This week join Danny, Anna and Jon as they find themselves confronting Mike's terrifying creation of Mecha Richard Osman's deadly quiz show. Massive thanks to Hill Burton for suggesting the quiz question puzzles for this episode - they're absolutely fiendish and it was great fun building a ridiculous episode around them. Also you might notice that this episode has some iffy audio! Poor ol' Danny managed to goof on his audio settings and recorded his voice track with his webcam rather than his ve...

Is this our shortest episode ever? It could well be - join Aled, Laura and Jamie as they storm through Dom's sneaky post-it production line puzzle.

Hi folks, bit of a special one for you this week! We got contacted by the Puzzleverse Inc a few months back, wanting to know if we'd like to play and record one of their rooms.

So bit of a departure this week, as you join Mike, Ben, Bailey, Tony, Aled and Laura in solving a crisis on the International Space Station! We've done our best to describe what we're seeing on the stream and screen as we go, bu...

Poor Danny, Poor, Lonely, Danny. EDIT: There was a technical issue with the end of this episode. I've fixed and reuploaded but you might need to refresh your feed/redownload for the fixed version to come through.

Unusually starting this episode with a PSA. The subject matter of this room hinges on a suicide attempt which some listeners might, understandably, not want to make light of in any way. While I hope we handle it sensitively, it may not be for everyone. Hopefully helpfully, if this troubles you in a serious way, you may want to talk to someone about it.
