FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

An exit escape room is a form of a real-life entertainment where participants are in a room with a specific theme and scenario alongside with other players, also known as an exit room. The objective is to complete a series of challenges in order to achieve a goal within a specified amount of time. Typically the goal is to escape the room, but not always!

The time limit to escape our rooms is 60 Minutes.

The recommended number of participants is listed for each room in their corresponding descriptions. There is a minimum player in order to book the room. This is so that there is a sufficient number of players to help each other solve the puzzles for the best player experience. Please contact us for events and groups larger than the room’s recommended maximum.

You are free to enter and leave the room as you please, however, the game timer will not be paused and continue to countdown. It is recommended you use the restroom prior to the start of the game

You cannot bring any electronic devices (phones, recording devices, smart watches etc) into the rooms unless it is for medical reasons or you are expecting an important call. Lockers are provided for you to securely store your personal belongings if needed.

You do not need to bring anything other than a positive attitude, willingness to have fun and a desire to work with others!
