What To Expect
Here’s how it works: You and your team will work together to find clues, solve puzzles, and ultimately complete a mission. Escaping will require teamwork, communication, wits, a sense of adventure, and most importantly: YOU!
Once you arrive, a dedicated game guide will take you on to your adventure and help you as needed. You will have exactly 60-minutes to complete the mission in your adventure and escape.
Choose to play one of eight uniquely immersive games:
- Prison Break: Complete a daring escape from the evil warden!
- The Heist: Recover a stolen masterpiece from an art thief!
- Playground: Complete your report card and get to summer break!
- Classified: Uncover the secret plot as a secret agent!
- Legend of the Yeti: Uncover the legend!
- Timeliner: Train Through Time: Save the future!
