Frequently Asked Questions

Maybe – In the Circus room and the Kraken the exit door is locked metaphorically. That means that we do not truly lock the door. We strongly discourage players from opening the door while the game is in session.
• Kind of. Our X-Cape room is equipped with a panic button that allows you to exit through the door you entered. But the clock keeps running down with or without you!!

Tickets are $35 per person. We offer $5 dollars off for children, students (with a valid ID) and military (with a valid ID).

Everyone in the group must arrive at least 15 minutes before their game starts. There will be a waiver to fill out before the game begins.

• If you arrive after we have started the game (the time on your booking confirmation), we most likely will not be able to allow you inside. In most cases, this would disrupt the game for the participating players and make scheduling very difficult. No refunds will be offered for late arrivals or no-shows.
• All games start on time. If you are late, the game will begin without you and no refund will be given. Players cannot enter or exit a game once it has already started. We must have you arrive 15 minutes early.

Please dress comfortably; you may be required to crawl. There will be lockers for you to keep your belongings in while playing the game. Cell phones, pens, pencils, flashlights, and lighters are prohibited inside the game.

Comfortable clothing is best.  Skirts and dresses not adviseable.  Sometimes with more people in the room it can get warm, especially when trying to avoid the Zombie, so dress in layers.

The games are hard, but not impossible. We tried to keep the same level of difficulty for our games. However, somehow some teams found one game easy than others, but it really depends on a team and their ability to communicate with each other, working together, delegating and so on. Room difficulty levels are listed on the each of the ROOMS pages.

All of our themes are different. Like genres of movies, some of our games center on action and intrigue while others feature mystery and suspense. Our X-Cape game has an intense atmosphere and we will only allow 14 years and older into this game. The Circus and The Kraken rooms are designed for 14 years and older but younger players can play. Parental discretion is recommended. Our games feature various special effects including sudden lighting and sound changes. Some of these effects can startle players.

Yes we offer hints. 

In the Kraken Casino, The smallest room is about the size of a walk in closet or an elevator. If this makes you feel uncomfortable we do not recommend this game.

• Touch everything, search everything, you never know where a clue could be hidden. Make sure to communicate with your team, let them know what you have found, and be involved with what they are working on. Lastly, pay attention to little details, you never know what could help you escape…
