Our minimum age is nine years old. Anyone under the age of fourteen years we request please an adult to accompany in the game ('adult' being 18+). NB: In Cardiff we require an adult as part of the group at all times and after 8pm we are OVER 18s ONLY.
You are locked in a complex, the clock is set to an hour, and you must work together in a team to solve puzzles and search for clues around the rooms to ultimately work out a door code and escape within the hour.
The whole experience will last around 80 to 90 minutes. You will spend up to 60 minutes in the room (the maximum given time), however, a short briefing will be made before the game and we would love if, after your escape, you could share your experience with us while we take your photo and answer any of your questions!
The price is £25 per person however discounts are available for groups of 7 or more. Please get in touch should you require a quote for a larger group.
No! Please just confirm the details on your booking email are correct and then that’s all you need to do!
