WHICH ESCAPE ROOM IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

Escape rooms are a great way to get out and DO something. Whether you’re spending time with friends or team building with your co-workers, these immersive and themed challenges will be sure to entertain.

With so many options to choose from – which room is right for you? Below is a break down of some factors that you should consider before booking your next escape game.

ESCAPE ROOM DIFFICULTY LEVEL

Escape rooms are meant to be a challenge; teams love racing against the clock and not knowing until the final minutes if they are going to escape. With the more escape rooms you play, the more experienced you’ll become as a puzzle solver. At The Locked Room that’s why we offer a wide variety of challenges.

Advanced players may appreciate, puzzles that have multiple steps to them and that require astute observation, whereas newer players often desire a more approachable and linear puzzling experience. We suggest newer players (those who have played 0-3 escape rooms) pick a room in the bottom half of our difficult levels and veteran players (3+ rooms of experience) pick a room in the top half.

If there is a theme that your team really wants to play feel free to reserve that room regardless of the difficulty level. Our staff are always available to provide as many hints as the team may require!

GROUP SIZE

As a general guideline, although smaller groups of 2-3 players are welcome to book our escape games, unless you are escape room veterans, we’d suggest against booking one of our larger capacity games. These rooms were designed intentionally with larger groups in mind and you will see a posted recommended minimum of players for each room.

Please note that the escape rooms listed with a minimum of 3 players to book cannot be played by 2 players as they contain puzzle elements that require at least 3 people to operate.

AGE OF PLAYERS

Most escape rooms are designed for an adult audience, but kids love the playfulness and the puzzle solving, not to mention feeling like they’re finally old enough to do something they couldn’t before.

Participants ages 6 to 11 are welcome to join as long as there is at least one adult playing with the group. We strongly recommend choosing one of our lower difficulty escape games if members of your group are under the age of 12.

Due to the graphic content found in Captivity, we recommend players aged 14 and over only for this escape adventure.
