Yes, absolutely! Our branch is equipped with various air conditioning units. Especially during warm days and heatwaves, we take extra measures to make it as cool and pleasant as possible inside. So you can come escape with us with peace of mind.After your game, you are also more than welcome to freshen up with a soft drink or a snack from our vending machines!
The principle of an escape room is that you and your team are locked in a room and must try to escape within 60 minutes. You do this using all sorts of hidden clues, puzzles, and challenges. The goal is to escape each room as quickly as possible.
You can form a team with as few as 2 people. The maximum number of members allowed per room is 7 people.
Each team gets a total of 60 minutes of playing time. During this time, you'll move through various rooms.
The minimum age for participation is approximately 7 years old. This means children from this age can fully enjoy our activities, which are also specifically tailored to their developmental level.
Yes, that's certainly possible. If you have more than 7 people, we can arrange the booking for you. Please contact us at +32 3 828 91 14 or via the contact form on our website.

A maximum of 7 people are allowed per time slot. If there are more people, you can split your group into multiple teams.For example:Is your group made up of 10 people? → Then you can purchase two tickets for 5 people.Is your group made up of 9 people? → Then you can buy one ticket for 4 people and one ticket for 5 people.Attention! Since we have two escape rooms, multiple teams can start simultaneously. This means up to 14 players can start simultaneously, divided between the Van Gogh and Pink Star rooms.
Absolutely. If you booked a time slot for fewer than 7 people, you can still book additional group members on-site, up to a total of 7 people per group. Please note that the maximum number of participants per team is always 7.
Our Escape Room is not wheelchair accessible; however, because everyone's mobility is different, we recommend contacting us. This way, we can determine together what is most suitable for your mobility, such as providing a folding chair if you have difficulty walking.
