FAQs

Think of Escape Hunt as the closest you’re likely to get to starring in a brilliantly plotted escape movie. You and your teammates get locked in a themed room and have to find and solve a series of clues in order to escape. The pressure’s on, the clock’s ticking, the adrenaline’s pumping. Escape Hunt isn’t something you watch, it’s something you experience – right in the heart of the action. We make you earn your freedom, throwing all manner of devious and dastardly red herrings, dead ends and misdirections your way. It’s completely immersive, utterly addictive and totally entertaining. After Escape Hunt, other entertainment just feels flat.

The whole experience lasts around 90 minutes. You’ll spend around 60 minutes in the room (in fact that’s the maximum time you’ve got in which to escape). Before that there’s a quick briefing to explain everything, and afterwards we invite you and your group to enjoy our licensed lounge, complimentary tea and coffee and photo opportunity space.

We’re open every day from 10am until 10pm. The last game booking is 8:30pm.

We think our games are ideal for groups of between two and five or six depending on the room. We would recommend at least three to four players to ensure you can apply enough brain power to the challenges! If you’ve seven or more who want to play then why not split into two teams and have a friendly – or indeed unfriendly – head to head competition?

All our Escape Hunt games are incredibly exciting and utterly immersive, so it’s impossible for us to say. Perhaps the best solution is to play them all!

If you are new to escape rooms, we would recommend Secret Service Mission (Level 1) or Alice in Puzzleland (Level 1).

If you’ve played escape rooms before, then we would recommend Wizard’s Quest (Level 2) or The Bank of Australia Heist (Level 3).

If you want a real challenge we would recommend our hardest room Assassin in the Pub (Level 4).

If you want to play head-to-head against another team then Wizard’s Quest (Level 2) has duplicate rooms available.

If you’d rather not escape the room and instead prefer an adventure around the glorious City of Sydney then book one of our outdoor games, Magic Portal (Level 2) or Operation Mindfall (Level 3).

If you’d rather stay home then check out our huge range of play at home adventures – including our range of remote team building events.
