THE ROOM
WILL MY GROUP BE LOCKED INTO THE ROOM?
No, the entrance door will remain unlocked for the duration of your game and players can exit whenever they need to. The only locked doors are the ones required to progress through the room.
WILL MY GROUP HAVE TO SHARE THE ROOM WITH OTHER PLAYERS?
No, all of our rooms are private by default. The people on your booking are the only people allowed into the room. We don't use live actors in the rooms either.
ARE THE ROOMS WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE?
Yes! Both the rooms are wheelchair accessible, and the rest of the facility (including toilets and changing areas) is too.
DO YOU HAVE ANY ROOMS FOR NON-ENGLISH SPEAKERS?
Not yet. Both of our rooms do use small amounts of English text, and any clues that you request will be delivered in English.
Players with a basic understanding of English may be able to complete the rooms.
ARE ANY OF THE ROOMS SCARY? DO THEY HAVE JUMP SCARES?
Serial Killer Charade is our horror themed room, and is supposed to be a little bit scary! We recommend that players should be aged 10 and over for this room.
None of our rooms have jump scares or live actors.
I DON'T LIKE ENCLOSED SPACES, CAN I STILL PLAY?
Our rooms are quite open and spacious inside, and we can make the ambient lighting brighter if required. We're happy to help with any accessibility requests, please contact us before your activity with any questions or requirements.
RULES & GAMEPLAY
HOW OLD DO I HAVE TO BE TO PLAY?
We recommend ages 8 and up. While we won't prevent younger players from entering the room, the experience may be unsuitable or too challenging for them.
HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN PLAY PER ROOM?
We recommend a maximum of 8 players per room, but the rooms can hold up to 10 players if you have a larger group. For more than 10, we suggest booking two rooms and splitting up into two smaller groups. You can even race to see which group escapes first!
All rooms require a minimum of 2 players.
QUESTION HIDDEN
Answer hidden. Un-hide and add text if needed
DO MINORS NEED TO BE ACCOMPANIED BY AN ADULT?
For groups aged 10+, we don't require an adult to be present in the room, though it may be a good idea as the rooms can be quite challenging. For groups aged younger than 10, we do recommend having at least one adult in the room to assist.
AM I ALLOWED HINTS IF I GET STUCK?
Yes, you can have an unlimited number of hints throughout the entire game.
BOOKING, CANCELLATION & PAYMENT

Yes! You can save $10 when you book both activities together. Simply book them both on the same day for a total price of $60.
To redeem this deal, select 'pay later' when you book both experiences and our staff will apply the deal for you upon arrival, or alternatively you can contact us directly to arrange the combo booking.
HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN YOU HOST IN TOTAL?
For everyone to be playing at the same time, we recommend a total of 16 people, but this can be increased to a maximum of 20 if required.
For more players than this, consider adding Archery Games to your event, which can substantially increase the number of places available.
DO I HAVE TO PAY ONLINE OR CAN I PAY IN PERSON?
You can pay online with debit or credit card, or if you would prefer to pay upon arrival we can accept cash as well. Simply select the 'pay later' option during the booking process to pay when you arrive - this is the better method if you group would like to pay individually.
