Children's birthdays

Adventure instead of the usual programme

A birthday the whole class talks about: instead of the cinema or the pool, the kids solve a real mission together. With suitable kids' versions from about age 10, personalised invitation cards and a victory certificate for every child.

Families

Together, not everyone for themselves

Finally something to experience together again — without everyone staring at their phone. In the escape room, every idea counts, the kids' just as much as the adults'. Two of our missions come in age-appropriate kids' versions from about age 10.

Thrilling but not scary: our rooms are designed for a shared experience. The game master adapts the pace and hints to your group so the little ones get their big moment too.

✓ From about age 10 ✓ No horror ✓ Everyone joins in

School classes

A class trip with brains

The school trip everyone thinks is cool: in the escape room the students solve a mission together — team spirit, communication and lateral thinking, all along the way. We split the class across several rooms so everyone plays at the same time.

Ideal from about age 10 and as a reward, project day or end-of-term trip. Just get in touch with your class size and preferred date — we'll find the right split.

✓ From about age 10 ✓ Whole class in parallel ✓ €22 for minors

Stag/hen dos & celebrations

The highlight of your big day

The activity that saves every stag or hen do: crack a mission together before the night goes on. It's also the perfect opener for milestone birthdays and girls' nights — afterwards you're a well-oiled group, with Ehrenfeld's nightlife waiting right around the corner.

Want to surprise the bride or groom? Let us know in advance — we'll help make the escape room an unforgettable part of your day.

Groups of friends

The best night in a long time

No cinema, no run-of-the-mill pub: grab your people and dive into a mission together. 60 minutes in which everyone is needed — and at the end of which you either cheer together or sit laughing through the debrief.

Whether you're a seasoned puzzle crew or a mixed bunch: our five rooms are fun for beginners and pros alike — and you'll have plenty to talk about for the rest of the evening.

✓ Pure teamwork ✓ For every level ✓ From €25 p.p.

Team building with real impact

Forget flip charts and circles of chairs: a shared mission against the clock. The escape room reveals how your team really works — communication, roles, decisions. And all with plenty of fun you'll remember for a long time.

For larger teams we split you across several rooms with a shared start and a head-to-head scoreboard. On request with an invoice — the perfect activity for a company outing, kick-off or Christmas party.
