1950.

The Cold War has begun.

Nuclear submarines sail silently and deadly in the high seas and narrow straits, while diplomats and spies conspire for power in governments of the world. In countless silos, the destructive intercontinental ballistic missiles only lack the final command. All the world holds its breath, fearing nuclear war and eternal winter.

In East and West, soldiers sit and wait in bunkers deep underground. They await the order to press the red button, firing the all-destroying nuclear weapons. But will they make it that far, before the enemy missiles hit?

It is your first day as soldiers in the NATO-bunker in Skagen, when the dreaded phone call comes: The enemy has fired their missiles, and now NATO’s missiles must be fired to intercept them and prevent Denmark and the rest of Europe from becoming a nuclear wasteland!

Can you keep calm and work together, when the entire world depends on it and even the smallest mistake might trigger World War 3?

Decode messages, open the control room and input the launch codes, before the Cold War turns a little too hot!

A real life 2WW bunker was the setting for this escape room - and the theme was of course the military. Mission: It is your first day as a soldier, go visit the nuclear missile bunker. After a few twists your mission is then to fire the missiles. 

Perfect location! We could open up the escape shaft and though we were not allowed to climb it, it was part of the game. This was beyond cool. 

This room is rated as the hardest room at the location and we did need two hints to get through it. For one of them, we don't think we would ever had thought of the solution even though it was clearly marked... but nobody noticed. Not that it wasn't a completely fair puzzle, far from it, it was probably the coolest puzzle in the room. 

Notice that there were a bit of reading in this room. Nice chunks but several of them.  The military instruction manual was a guide throughout the room. 
Few traditional locks but this room was so much more than that. 

While this is quite expensive, and we are not usually into wartime as a theme, we rank this quite high. At least it is in our top 3 after playing 50+ rooms. Lovely GM.
