Frequently Asked Questions

SAW: Escape Experience London is a theatrical immersive experience combined with the thrill of escape room style challenges. Those who dare to play the game will be split into teams of up to 6 people, where you will work together to complete challenges and explore multiple rooms to test yourselves and others.

No, you do not need to have watched any or all of the SAW films to participate. SAW: Escape Experience London is enjoyable for everyone, from the ultra fans to complete novices of Jigsaw’s games.

SAW: Escape Experience London can be found at 1 America Square, London, EC3N 2LS. Both Tower Hill Station and Fenchurch Street Station are a 5 minutes walk away. For information on travel, please visit How To Find Us.

SAW: Escape Experience London is approximately 70 minutes in duration. Though we recommend you arrive 10 minutes before your allocated start time. 

There is a bar at the end of the experience, so be sure to factor in time to have a well earned drink at the end…if you make it that far.

You will be greeted by one of our on-site security guards, who will take you into the building. You will be given the opportunity to use the toilet facilities and cloakroom cases before your experience begins. Please note, you will be required to sign a Disclaimer form on-site before your experience begins.

Latecomers will not be admitted under any circumstances. We may be able to reschedule to later games subject to availability.

Please note the SPIRAL and JIGSAW routes are not based on any specific film. 

Both routes offer the same length and style of experience, where you will be faced with heartstopping and morally challenging tasks, decisions and consequences. However, the two routes differ in the locations you are taken and the challenges you face. Both have physical aspects and challenges. 

The SPIRAL route includes tight and enclosed spaces, and requires players to crawl on their hands and knees.

The JIGSAW A route is designed to be more accessible and is suitable for wheelchair users.

Due to the layout of the games, we are unable to accommodate motorised wheelchairs or buggies.

All teams begin the experience together, so if you return for a second time there will be shared elements that you will experience again. However, the SPIRAL and JIGSAW routes offer two unique journeys once Jigsaw’s game begins, so we would strongly recommend you return and try the second route to fully immerse and test yourself at SAW: Escape Experience London. 

All players begin the experience together as one large group. During the experience you will be split into (up to) four teams, as displayed when booking your tickets. Teams are made up of a maximum of 6 people, and you will complete the remaining journey in your team, leaving the others behind.

The age restriction for SAW: Escape Experience London is 16+. Anyone 16-17 years old must be accompanied by an adult (18+), who may be requested to show acceptable identification, at all times.

Identification bearing their photograph, date of birth, and a holographic mark. Examples of acceptable ID include photo card driving licences, passports, or proof of age cards bearing the PASS hologram, although other forms of ID which meet the criteria laid out above are also acceptable.

For visitors that make it that far, The Traproom will be available at the end of the experience, to reward players that were brave enough to complete Jigsaw’s trials. The Traproom bar is an homage to all things SAW.

The bar offers a range of bottled beer, cider, wine and premium spirits & mixers, and we highly recommend our signature Needle Cocktails.

Large bags and suitcases cannot be stored on site.
