Release the rats!

About this episode

The solvers face a death trap puzzle involving rats and a suspended cage, leading to a quick resolution.

Very nearly the quickest solve we've ever had! In the final regular episode from our Nottingham AirBnB recording, Jon takes the helm and delivers, without notes, what he believes to be a deceptively simple yet fiendish death trap puzzle...only for Jamie to figure it out within seconds. It isn't the fastest solve we've had but it came damn close. Puzzle Maestro: Jon Saunders Solvers: Mike Collins, Jamie Gibbs, Mairi Nolan Episode Art: Dom Jordan Editor: Jon Saunders TLDR: The solvers find themselves inside a suspended cage, accompanied by dozens of rats. To leave means death, but the only means of escape is outside the cage. Come and chat to us on Facebook, Instagram, BlueSky and LinkedIn.
