We are usually closed on Mondays and Tuesdays, however we can open for bespoke private events for 24 or more players. During school term time, we are open seven days a week.

Yes, you’re welcome to have an alcoholic drink before your game. However, as we are a family venue and as with any live event, we reserve the right to refuse admission if we believe your behaviour could impact the safety or enjoyment of others.

Our rooms are designed for up to 6 players, except A Grand Way Out, which has a maximum of 5 players, and Jungle, which has a maximum of 4 players. For safety and game design reasons, we aren’t able to exceed these limits. The minimum group size for all rooms is 2 players. If you have a larger group, many of our themes offer head-to-head options so you can play simultaneously in separate rooms, which makes the experience even more fun! If you have a larger group, many of our themes offer head-to-head options so you can play simultaneously in separate rooms, which often makes the experience even more fun!

We welcome players of all ages, however all children aged 14 and under must be accompanied by at least one adult aged 18 or over in each room booked. This is to ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience.

If you’d like to add more players, please get in touch and we’ll check availability. We can usually add extra people if your room has space and you stay within the maximum team size. If your group exceeds this, we may be able to add an additional room, subject to availability. We’ll do our best to help!

If you wish to make any changes to your booking, you must notify us in writing at least 5 days prior to your event and we will do our best to accommodate your request. Unfortunately, we are unable to offer refunds for any group members who cancel or are unable to attend within 5 days of your booking.

We are priced at £25 per player with discounts available for teams of 13 or more by contacting our office. We also offer a 10% student discount with code StudyBuddy21 and a 10% discount for BlueLight card holders using code WishBlueWereHere at checkout. Relevant ID’s will be requested upon checking in.

We are the only escape venue in Europe that can enable a large group up to 67 players to race against each other simultaneously. This considerably adds to the pressure, excitement and adrenaline rush, as if it wasn’t tense enough already! We have made a HUGE effort to theme the venue throughout, so much so that we have been approached by both music and television companies to use our facilities as a backdrop. Our props are original wherever possible from the floor to the ceiling. Our venue is located centrally in Millennium Square, making us perfect for any other activities/food/drinks either before or after your experience.

While you are locked in for a maximum of 60 minutes, the event has the total running time of approximately 90 minutes. We also ask that you are at the venue ready to go 10 minutes before your time slot.

You may leave the room at any time you wish through an unlocked door. Your personal game controller is monitoring your entire experience so it is perfectly safe.

Our Bristol venue offers a fully accessible lift to our waiting room as well as wheelchair accessible toilets and functions. If this is a requirement in your party, please do make sure to contact the venue prior to your experience so that we can make sure an appropriate room is assigned for your game as some rooms are larger than others. All games also have ample seating to take a moment to relax. Whilst all our rooms are wheelchair accessible unfortunately some aspects of the game may not be fully suitable or playable. Please contact the venue for any advice/notice of special requirements, who will be more than happy to assist with your experience as much as possible.

Yes, of course. There are no physical challenges in any of our games and we have provided seating in all of the rooms should anyone need to take a break. It’s also worth noting that you are not actually locked inside of a room, you are free to leave at any point during the game through an unlocked door.

We like to make sure everyone has a great time and that of course includes safety. Our Jungle room is designed for our smaller teams and has a maximum of 4 players at any one time. Our Wallace & Gromit room has capacity for 3 to 5 players. Our Infinity and Parallax games have a maximum of 6 players per room, but we have multiple rooms of each! If you have more than 6 players you can play head to head. It’s much more fun and what we specialise in!

Bookings can only be made if they are paid for in advance. Whilst we can accept on-the-day walk-ins, we can't ensure a session will be available for your party and strongly recommend booking to avoid disappointment.

We probably shouldn’t be trusted with The Professor’s precision equipment, and we definitely should not be left in charge of young, impressionable scientists! We will need you to have 1 responsible adult (18+) for each booked room if there will be escapees aged 14 and under.

Whilst we are more than happy to host children's parties, we don’t currently offer any party packages. We are however surrounded by lots of local businesses that would be a great addition to your day either before or after your game with us. Please note, when playing in our rooms, we will need you to have 1 responsible adult (18+) for each room if there will be escapees aged 14 and under.

No running is required however we’re not going to stop you!
