FAQ

Answers to common questions below...

Are the rooms scary?

No. The experiences are mysterious, challenging and exciting, but not scary in any way. It’s also fine if you’re claustrophobic. The rooms are quite spacious, nobody is forced to do anything they don’t want to, and you can always ask to leave the room if you feel uncomfortable. This has never happened with us, but we’re always ready for it.

What is the minimum team size?

Our adventures are designed to accommodate between 2 and 6 players. You do not need a full team of 6 players to participate, the rooms can be completed in time with a team of 2.

Is there an age restriction?

Under 8 years of age: Children under 8 years of age are strictly prohibited from entering any of our escape rooms.
8 to 16 years of age: Participants between the ages of 8 and 16 years of age can play our escape rooms but must have at least one adult (18+) present in the group. This is not negotiable.
16 and over: There are no restrictions for participants ages 16 and older.
Our recommended age for participating is 16 and over. Participants under the age of 16 may find some of the puzzles too confusing or difficult to solve as the games are geared towards adult audiences.

How difficult is the game?

Our game consists of 3 different rooms. Each game is designed to be completed in 60 minutes by concentration and solving the puzzles. You do not need any special talent other than using your brain and acting fast. This, however, does not necessarily mean that everybody can finish the game!

How early should we arrive for our game?

Please plan to arrive 15 minutes before your start time but no more than 20! This is essential. You must arrive on time to participate. When you arrive you will receive a quick briefing on the game. Then the fun begins! You will be locked in the room and will have 60 minutes to get out.

What happens if I am late?

These are live-action events. You must arrive on time in order to participate. We cannot wait for latecomers. The door to the room locks at exactly the time you signed up for. Leave ample time to allow for traffic and parking. If you arrive after the door to the room has been locked, you will not be allowed to participate.
