L4613: ‘Escape’ by Xanthippe
Posted by Encota on 17 Jul 2020
Lots of clues contained an extra word, which then needed to be suitably grouped together. This resulted in the following four phrases/riddles:
- Always coming not arriving
- Where Tom’s in work with Potter but clay never gets baked
- Tall when young short when old
- Barred cells here prisoners don’t enter
And the answers to these, TOMORROW, CHAMBER OF SECRETS, CANDLE and CROSSWORD spelt out the path that allowed the solver (U) to escape from the top NE quadrant and end up exiting the Southern door of the Escape Room complex.

A few of the extra words were quite tough to find but eventually they all dropped out. Thanks Xanthippe!
Cheers,
Tim /Encota
