A family day out in 5 cities

Wondering whether an escape room is right for your family? Our themes are mainly fun and inspiring. In our family rooms you don't need to worry about scary horror effects or puzzles that are too hard. You'll need to work together, talk and think things through to escape in time. Most rooms can be played with an adult from age 12, which is also what we recommend. Most locations also have a room from age 10. Can you be the fastest family out of the room?

  • Escape rooms in Amsterdam, Hoofddorp, Tilburg, Utrecht and Zandvoort
  • Themes for young and old, with no scary horror effects in the family rooms
  • Lighting, sound and hints adapted to children in a few rooms
  • Also as a battle escape room: family against family, or parents against kids
  • Book online yourself

Themes for young and old

Together you step into a story: a jungle expedition, a train racing through the night to Constantinople, a wizard school where your wands have been confiscated, or a magical world full of games. Every room has its own atmosphere, but it's always about the same thing: solving puzzles together. Everyone has different strengths. Join forces and you'll escape within 60 minutes.

Stronger together: every family member counts!
