The principle of the escape game is simple - up to 6 players have 60 minutes to crack a puzzle or puzzle their way through the escape room. Before the game starts, you will be given a short introduction and a brief introduction to the game. Then the puzzles begin. By combining objects and clues, you can reach the goal together and escape! You will only find the exit if you put all the clues together correctly.

Each room has its own story and a different level of difficulty.
Some of our rooms are available from the age of 10.
Others are only suitable from the age of 14 or 18.
Our age recommendation is next to the description of the respective room.
As there are also scary rooms, we would ask you to always read the description and decide for yourself whether the room is suitable for your child or not.
A supervisor of at least 18 years of age must be present at each game to assume responsibility.
As the accompanying person, we recommend that you judge for yourself whether the child is old enough to follow the game and actively participate.
Alternatively, young people between the ages of 14 and 17 can also take a Declaration of consent of the legal guardian.
There is no upper age limit.

We advise against participation in the event of mental illness, heart disease, asthma and other serious illnesses. Please also read our AGB.

The whole experience usually lasts around 80 minutes, including a short introduction before the game and a debriefing. The actual playing time is 60 minutes.

Definitely no - come as you feel comfortable and can move around. Full body suits and masks are perhaps a little counterproductive - sometimes you need to see through them.

Unfortunately, we must point out that our location and the games are not barrier-free. We understand the importance of access for all and regret any inconvenience this may cause.

15 Minutes Ahead of time is the right time …
So if you have booked, for example, at 17 o'clock, then please be there at a quarter to five!
Greeting, locking things away, possibly going to the toilet, having the game explained – that takes a little time. So please be there 15 minutes in advance!
