AM I ACTUALLY LOCKED IN A ROOM?

No, absolutely not. You able to leave the experience at any time. When Escape Rooms first opened over 15 years ago in the states and in Europe, it was a basic premise, you get locked in, solve the clues to find the key to get out. Since then they have evolved into more immersive adventure rooms with their own narrative to work through.
HOW PHYSICAL ARE THE ROOMS?

The puzzles and tasks require more brain power than muscle power. But there will be some dexterity of the hands needed as well as the odd step. There are more details on each room below. We are currently testing our rooms for wheelchair suitability and will update these FAQ's as soon as we have completed testing. If you have no issues with the odd step or crawl please don't read the section below...Mini Spoiler Alerts!
