2023 Edinburgh Fringe

John Robertson has, over the years, been refining this format - a show in which players must shout out options as they try to navigate a text-based video game he controls - to the point it is now a very safe bet for anyone looking for some anarchic laughs. Every day is different... it was the fourth attendance in a row for the couple sitting next to us.

'Watching audiences tackle the challenge and fail is one of the funniest sights around, don't miss it' (Telegraph). The audience is trapped in a retro videogame with a sadistic, end-of-level boss. Escape and win £1,000 or be brutally murdered by the rest of the crowd! Will you: A) Find the light switch? B) Go north? C) Abandon hope? Brutal, hilarious, innovative. ***** (Comedy.co.uk). **** (Scotsman). Winner: Chortle Award, 2020. Fringe sell-out, 2019. Nominated: Best Comedy, FringeWorld 2023. Runner-Up: Best Comedy, NextUp 2022. As seen at Blue Dot, Insomnia Gaming Festival and Twitch global front page.

Audience participation, Strong language/swearing.
