Tim (Escape Witchers)

The new game from Epic Escape brought us a great deal of joy. From the very beginning, you are immersed in the story of the "Curiosum." Our game master did an excellent job, delivering a spot-on her acting performance. We have to point out that the set is designed with great care down to the smallest detail, and the puzzles kept us well-engaged; also the music and scents helped us become deeply absorbed in the story.  

To be honest we recognized a few mechanisms from other games—perhaps intended as affectionate nods. 

While the ending caused the built-up tension to drop off a bit, we still had a truly fantastic experience, thanks in large part to our game master, Milou. Thank you so much!

"Illusion" begins with a highly entertaining illusion right in the intro. The game master did an excellent job. The game itself lives up to its name, even if most of the effects are no longer particularly extraordinary by today's standards. It is worth noting, however, that this game has provided reliable entertainment for many years. The set is well-maintained and shows no signs of wear. 

Many of the puzzles were quite challenging, though some required an excessive amount of reading, which slightly disrupted the flow for us. Nevertheless, we were glad to have the chance to experience this game before it is retired in November 2026.

"Dementia" begins with a very distinct theme that immediately piqued our interest. All of the gameplay mechanics are versatile and intense. The puzzles kept us well-engaged, yet they were all entirely solvable. Following a highly interactive opening, the unique theme unfortunately fades into the background a bit at the end of the game. Nevertheless, this room is of a high standard and provided us with great entertainment—we certainly hope the operator creates more rooms in the future!

This game features a wonderful blend of wit, story, highly varied interaction, and intense suspense. We fully committed ourselves to the narrative, becoming completely immersed in it. If you’re up for the same, I highly recommend checking into the hostel in Bratislava and venturing into its dark depths!

A very intense game that can be quite physically demanding. It succeeds in building tension consistently from the very start, becoming extremely intense in the final third. However, if you follow the game mechanics while managing to keep your wits about you—to solve puzzles that are, ultimately, not all that challenging—you will be able to handle it just fine. We had a blast and really enjoyed pushing ourselves beyond our own limits.

While the basic concept for this room already existed elsewhere, Horror Productions—a highly professional operator—has managed to elevate it into a true masterpiece. The set design is impressive, and the way the game begins is both very funny and unique. The acting was also compelling, though we personally would have liked a bit more physical interaction; then again, opinions on that tend to vary significantly. While a few of the puzzles didn’t quite hit the mark for us, the overall experience is an intense one that brings the classic Jason Voorhees horror film franchise to life.

A very well-designed room that challenged us in several ways—partly because our puzzle-solving was repeatedly interrupted by a number of unexpected jump scares. The set design is excellent, though the story didn’t quite draw us in. That said, it featured a truly cinematic ending—we have to give them credit for that! NoExit has not only provided a new home for this room—which was previously offered by another provider—but has also elevated it to a higher, more intense level!

A very well-executed, yet highly challenging escape room that even includes an exciting encounter toward the end. We were truly put to the test and, on more than one occasion, had to think outside the box.

The set fits the theme very well and transports you into the world of the nun. Unfortunately, some parts are already showing signs of wear and tear, even though the room is not particularly old. The puzzles integrate well into the game, and a solid sense of tension is built up. While not all of the puzzles worked perfectly for us right away, we still found the overall experience to be worthwhile.

When you have high expectations for an experience, there’s always a significant fear of being disappointed. And if you’ve already played other rooms by Lockhill, your expectations are bound to be high. In this case, however, my expectations weren’t just met—they were exceeded. Lockhill has created an incredibly well-crafted set that brings the story to life in a vivid way. While I initially underestimated the "scare factor" at the beginning of the experience, the room ultimately managed to push me to my limits in several moments. The characters in the narrative are portrayed so fittingly that the core theme becomes exceptionally clear—a theme that carries immense relevance in our society today. With this, Lockhill has created not just an intense new escape room, but an absolute masterpiece. I am deeply impressed.! 

As it happens, my fellow players had already experienced the room, but they were willing to play it again for my sake. Even on this second run, they were just as impressed and thoroughly enjoyed it!

This room tells a moving story—one that, especially for me as a German, is at times even distressing. True to the style of Horror Productions, the room features numerous cinematic moments that are executed exceptionally well; the same can be said for the extensive and highly detailed set design. Through the statements made in the concluding film, the room—which touches upon sensitive thematic boundaries—manages to craft what is arguably the most emotionally resonant narrative I have ever encountered in an escape room. "Never again" applies to the theme, but certainly not to this escape room!

This room is full of unique features. I have never encountered a "splatter" mechanic like this in any other room, and it truly leaves nothing to be desired—though, for the record, all our clothes came out perfectly clean after a standard wash! As for the game itself: the story is presented convincingly through highly interactive acting, making the touching narrative one that really sticks with you. Challenging puzzles kept us well-occupied as we explored the expansive set, which was filled with great suspense. A wonderful debriefing session rounded off the experience, and we are now eagerly—and very excitedly—awaiting a sequel!

The room stands out thanks to a strong opening and an huge set that fits the story perfectly. Even years after it first opened, this classic is still well worth playing.

The story told within this room is deeply emotional and profound. Through excellent cinematic moments and frequent contact with the characters, the experience becomes highly intense and truly memorable. Some of the puzzles were quite demanding—a challenge made even greater by the high level of tension in the room—but that is precisely what we loved about it. 

This room comes highly recommended and is exceptionally well-designed!

The room is based on a classic horror film, adapting it with great attention to detail while also incorporating highly creative, original touches. We particularly appreciated how the game mechanics explain themselves and build increasing tension. Time flew by so quickly that we were surprised to find the game had already come to an end—a good sign, as it clearly left us wanting more. The service was also excellent; upon arrival, we were even treated to refreshments that fit the story’s theme.

"Evil Inside" is based on the exorcism story of Emily Rose and incorporates numerous details from that narrative. The escape room recreates this story in a compelling and intense manner, set within a very well-designed environment. The puzzles provided a genuine challenge, yet remained consistently manageable and satisfying to solve. We particularly appreciated the attention we received from the owner, who runs his room with great humor and genuine passion, providing excellent service throughout.

This escape room is also based on a classic horror film—though it features a unique twist that I won’t reveal. The story is presented in a highly convincing and moving way, bolstered by the actors, who even stayed in character during the debriefing. The puzzles were notably more challenging than what you typically find in a horror-themed room, yet always solvable. It’s a classic that is still well worth playing!

Der neuste Raum des Anbieters kann sich atmosphärisch und kulissentechnisch wieder absolut sehen lassen. Das ist auch die große, aber leider auch nahezu einzige Stärke des Raumes. Die Geschichte bietet viel Potential, die durch die Atmosphäre auch ausgeschöpft wird. Leider gibt es wieder wenige Rätsel, die auch noch größtenteils auf Suchen-Finden und Lesen basieren. Wirklich niemand möchte in einem Escape Room viel Text lesen müssen, erst recht nicht in einem als „Horrorraum“ angekündigten Spiel. Leider wurde auch das Horror-Potential nicht ausgenutzt, obwohl die Kulisse klar eine beklemmende Atmosphäre erzeugt. Allerdings hat der Anbieter sich unsere Kritik zu dem noch jungen Raum ausführlich angehört und war wieder sehr nett. Hoffen wir, dass sie diesen Raum noch überarbeiten, um dann ein gelungenes Erlebnis zu schaffen. Wir würden es dem Anbieter von Herzen wünschen, weil die kulissentechnische Arbeit wirklich eine Reise wert ist. Horrorfans kommen allerdings bisher nicht auf ihre Kosten.

Auch dieser Raum ist kulissentechnisch und  atmosphärisch äußerst gelungen. Alleine die Einleitung macht schon echt etwas her und führt einen in eine interessante Geschichte ein. Der Game Flow des Spiels ließ allerdings zu wünschen übrig, die wenigen Rätsel schwankten zwischen ziemlich offensichtlich und nicht gerade naheliegend oder simplen Suchaufgaben. Das ist schade, denn aus dieser Kulisse könnte man sicherlich einen sehr immersiven Gefängnisausbruchsraum erschaffen. Trotzdem ist dieser Raum bei diesem Anbieter mein Lieblingsraum. Auch hier war der Service super. Das Intro beim Betreten des Anbieters war übrigens auch großartig. Wir haben es, weil wir alle drei Räume am selben Tag spielten, nur bei diesem Raum erlebt.

Die Geschichte des, mittlerweile etwas in die Jahre gekommenen, Raumes ist ansprechend und passt in das Universum des Anbieters, der es bekanntlich versteht, Atmosphäre zu schaffen. Leider gibt es insgesamt wenige Rätsel, wobei sich die vorhandenen Rätsel passend in das Raumthema eingliedern. Für das, was der Raum bietet, ist der Preis allerdings recht hoch. Die Betreuung ist sehr freundlich gewesen!

What a fantastic and intense experience! I was really sad not to have had the chance to play "Corpse Inc. I", so I was very excited when "Corpse Inc. II" opened. And what can I say? If you enjoy horror experiences, I think this new one is infinitely more rewarding than the old version. 

The game began even before we entered the venue, creating a consistently fitting and immersive atmosphere right from the start. Above all, it was a truly thrilling experience! We let the owner know when booking that we were highly experienced horror escape room players, so they pulled out all their experiences to create a terrifying experience for us. And it was impressive! I highly recommend sharing your preferences when booking; the owner and actors are very professional and have plenty of ways to tailor the gameplay and acting to ensure everyone has a great time.

The story and puzzles fit the abandoned morgue setting perfectly. We were kept fully engaged the entire time and had an absolute blast. The debriefing was also really nice (thanks for the drinks and the chance to get a behind-the-scenes look).

We wholeheartedly recommend this game to anyone who loves thrilling, immersive horror escape rooms!

We had a lot of fun at "House of Twisted Minds," as the game effectively begins before you even enter the venue. This immediately created an immersive atmosphere that was successfully maintained throughout the experience. The puzzles all fit perfectly into the suspenseful and coherent storyline. We often leave escape rooms having enjoyed the experience but without fully getting the (whole) story, but that wasn't an issue here! 

While the room wasn't particularly frightening for us as experienced horror gamers, the cinematic moments kept us thoroughly engaged. The debriefing was also great fun, offering a chance to look back on our personal highlights. 

All in all, a fantastic experience that leaves us eager to see what "Escape Room Amersfoort" comes up with next!

This room has also been designed with great love and dedication. The set is more elaborate than that of the first room, creating an even more immersive atmosphere. And I'd like to point out that once again, everything was created personally by the owner. The puzzles are very well thought out and fit the lighthouse keeper's story perfectly. We were kept thoroughly engaged and had a wonderful time - the time just flew by! If you have time, you can take a look at a book in which the owner has documented the construction of his escape room. The service was excellent, and it was an honor to play there.

An escape room designed with great love and dedication, following the story of the lighthouse keeper's will. We were kept well-occupied and managed to solve the consistently well-thought-out puzzles, making for a thoroughly enjoyable experience. Even though the room was built using relatively simple means - since it is entirely a private, independent project, which is truly impressive - it creates an atmosphere that perfectly suits the story. The owner  is incredibly friendly and provides excellent service!

This room is very cool and designed to match the theme as well. 

The puzzles repeat themselves in their basic idea after some time, but have nevertheless occupied us well and also partly challenged us, even as experiecend players that we are.

This time the fact that our gamemaster supervised several games at the same time did not matter, we were again very well and nicely looked after.

All in all, we recommend this experience too!

The room is very cool and designed to match the theme. The puzzles are varied and challenging for 60 minutes, even for experienced players like us. Some puzzles were more intended for occupation than for witty riddles, but due to the variety this did not have a negative impact. 

It's a pity that the gamemasters have to manage several games at the same time, which can lead to delays in receiving clues. But our gamemaster gave us a few extra minutes as compensation and looked after us super nicely within the scope of her possibilities. 

Overall, we recommend this experience!

We liked the idea of the escape rooms based on local history. Also this room was designed with a lot of love and the puzzles fitting and varied. As well this time, the game mastering has continuously communicated with us in an appropriate role. 

We were very professional and friendly and had a very nice and interesting exchange with our game master after the game. Thank you very much for that!

We liked the idea of the escape rooms based on local history. The room was designed with a lot of love and the riddles challenged us almost to the last minute. It is also nice that the game mastering has continuously communicated with us in a suitable role. 

We have been very professional and friendly! Thank you very much for that!

A challenging (okay, especially cause I played all alone) high score room with a variety of puzzles and despite everything some immersive elements that give the room a special and funny touch.

Unsolved Mysteries is simply one of my favourite providers and the hosting by the super lovely and professional gamemasters (thanks to Charlotte and Bradley) was just amazong again.

 I will be happy to come back anytime! :-)

Dieser eher neue Raum der Mystery Lounge ist mit viel Liebe gebaut worden, was sich in einer sehr stimmigen Kulisse zeigt. Auch hier möchte ich betonen, dass der Betreiber die Räume in Eigenregie plant sowie baut und dafür wirklich ein sehenswertes Ergebnis erzielt. Die Rätsel waren teils sehr herausfordernd, in einzelnen Fällen auch nah an der Frustrationsgrenze. Trotzdem sind wir insgesamt mit Begeisterung aus dem Raum gekommen und haben uns sehr gut betreut gefühlt, nicht zuletzt, weil die Einstiege in die Räume der Mystery Lounge ja immer eine passende und witzige Überraschung offerieren, so auch dieses Mal!

Der Raum ist zweifelsohne ein (gelungener!) Escape Room der ersten Generation. Das muss man bei der Bewertung einfach berücksichtigen. Die Rätsel haben uns zu zweit trotzdem gut beschäftigt sowie herausgefordert und waren, bis auf wenige Ausnahmen, passend und durchdacht. Wie immer ist das Hosting in der Mystery Lounge sehr positiv zu bewerten und die Leidenschaft des Eigentümers, Räume in Eigenregie zu entwickeln und zu bauen, gefällt uns nach wie vor sehr. Darum bewerten wir diesen Raum als empfehlenswert, auch wenn er den zunehmend hohen Ansprüchen von Enthusiast:innen nur bedingt gerecht wird. Aber das darf man auch nicht erwarten.

Das Raumkonzept ist gekauft und nett umgesetzt, wobei man an einigen baulichen Bedingungen sieht, dass er semiprofessionell gebaut worden ist. Das respektiere ich ausdrücklich und gleichzeitig kann der Raum natürlich mit vielen anderen Räumen nicht mithalten. Dafür fand ich das Erlebnis allerdings recht teuer.

Das Loop-Konzept war eine neue Erfahrung, die mir persönlich weniger liegt als klassische Escape Rooms, aber das ist ja Geschmackssache. Positiv erwähnen möchte ich dabei aber, dass die Spielleitung aufgrund unserer hohen Erfahrung sich bemüht hat, den Raum so anspruchsvoll wie möglich für uns zu gestalten, es gibt also - dank guter Spielleitung - Anpassungsmöglichkeiten.

Die Zeit in dem Escape Room ist schnell vergangen. Das Highscore-Prinzip ist eben mal etwas Anderes, auch wenn wir Escape Rooms lieber weniger unter Zeitdruck genießen. Die Rätsel waren herausfordernd und die Atmosphäre stimmig, auch die Betreuung durch Linus hat uns sehr gut gefallen.

"I Can Hear You" has finally been rebuilt and is back in 2025. Unfortunately, I didn't have the chance to play the old version and was all the happier about this new release. The game was a lot of fun. I, as someone fairly experienced in horror escape rooms, played it with a friend who had no previous horror game experience, and we both loved it! 

All the acting moments were perfectly paced and had professional timing. The story made perfect sense, and the setting was very authentic. We lost all sense of space and time and were completely immersed in the game. These are clear signs that Entered has done everything right with this experience. If you're looking for challenging puzzles, you won't find much in this game. But that's not Entered's brand. They create a horror experience and are simply very, very good at it. Comparable games would be "Don't Take A Breath" from Athens and the sadly closed "Stay In The Dark." It's important to emphasize that the exciting core mechanics of those games were first used in the old version of the room in Entered. If you've played those rooms, you'll know what I mean.

Thank you also for the pleasant and interesting debriefing, for which everyone involved patiently and attentively took the time despite the late hour!

I am in love with the Darkverse. The atmosphere and immersion of all the rooms I played so far lived on well-thought-out backdrops, appropriate music and even coordinated smells. And of course the theatrical moments should not be missing in this list. "Into The Darkverse" is an innovative tribute to all these signature moves. Nothing more should be about this surprising experience. How scary the experience is felt is certainly very individual. Personally, it hardly scared me, but it was a lot of fun, although challenging puzzles during the experience are clearly not in the foreground. 

Nevertheless, a clear recommendation, especially for all fans of Dark Park!

The room is quite impressive and has an atmospheric setting. Some puzzles were challenging, which we consider positive. But there were also puzzles that only made limited sense to us and were very frustrating. 

Unfortunately, we can also confirm that some puzzle elements are a bit worn out, some of them also those that could be easily replaced (a book, for example).

The friendly and very supportive game master tried to compensate for this as well as possible. We only understood the (quite interesting!) story towards the end and with the help of the debriefing, which took place in great detail and in a way. Thus, we look back on a positive experience overall, although unfortunately we can only partially understand the hype around the room.

Thank you for the very nice service and the accommodation with our requests due to the acute physical limitations of one player of the group.

An atmospheric room with appealing and challenging puzzles, which is really good to play, even if it is already a bit older. Not a horror room, but a room with a tense atmosphere.

Thank you for the very nice service and the accommodation with our requests due to the acute physical limitations of one player of the group.

A very nicely designed room with an equally beautiful atmosphere. The idea of a room for two people is also nice, although it must be clearly stated that the room is very undemanding in terms of riddles. It is kept very linear and most of the time you simply work on a lot of things, which after a while, especially for experienced players like us, is a bit boring. For beginners in the scene this is certainly a nice space, but as an enthusiast you might be disappointed. 

Thank you for the very nice service and the accommodation with our requests due to the acute physical limitations of one player of the group.

Ein mit viel Liebe und aufwändiger Kulisse gestalteter Raum, der eine intensive Immersion in die Welt der Zauberakademien evoziert. Die Rätsel/Aufgaben sind allesamt logisch und auch passend, wenngleich das Erlebnis stärker als herausforderndes Rätseln fokussiert wird. Sehr gut gefiel uns auch wieder beim Anbieter „Miraculum“, dass auch das Hosting erzählerisch in die Geschichte eingebettet ist. Insgesamt sild Raum und Anbieter also eine klare Empfehlung! 

„Der Uhrmacher“ ist in weiten Teilen zwar recht klassisch gehalten, enthält aber auch technisch versierte Rätsel. Besonders überzeugend ist die Menge an Aufgaben und Rätseln, die herausfordernd sind. Es gibt wirklich viel zu tun und das wird in Escape Rooms leider immer seltener. Auch die Geschichte ist verständlich sowie stimmig. Während das Set insgesamt in Ordnung ist, fällt negativ auf, dass es keine Musik oder keinen sonstigen atmosphärischen Sound gibt. Auch die Hinweisgebung sowie Zeitanzeige sind leider wie aus erster Escape-Room-Stunde, wir wurden aber dennoch professionel betreut.

Für Rätselfreund:innen ist der Raum trotzdem, auch wenn der Preis nicht gerade günstig ist (in Relation dazu, was geboten wird), trotzdem eine klare Empfehlung. 

Auch dieser Raum berücksichtigt, ähnlich wie „Bavari Sacrilegio“ eine gute Kombination aus herausfordernden Rätseln sowie immersivem Setting, die in eine gelungene Story implementiert sind. Dabei liegt der Fokus in diesem Raum etwas stärker auf dem Erlebnis und der Kulisse als auf den Rätseln, im Vergleich zum anderen Raum. Dafür kommt der Raum ohne leseintensives Handbuch aus. Auch hier ist positiv zu erwähnen, dass das gesamte Arrangement des Raumes (also auch die Tippgebung) nicht in seiner Immersion gebrochen wird. 

Kleinere technische Probleme, haben dem Spielfluss, auch dank der erneut sehr netten sowie engagierten Spielleiterin Sabine kaum Entbehrung bereitet. Herzlichen Dank dafür! 

Auch dieser Raum ist eine klare Empfehlung (übrigens kaum gruselig, aber mit passender und spannender Atmosphäre; bitte keine Sorge davor haben, dass der Raum ‚horrormäßig‘ sein könnte!).

Der Raum punktet absolut (gerade in der heutigen Zeit und bei Trend-Fokus auf immersive Erlebnisse) durch seine hohe Vielzahl an passenden sowie herausfordernden Rätseln. So waren wir  zu zweit sehr gut beschäftigt. 

Auch wenn die Spielfläche eher klein ist, wurde sie passend sowie trotzdem immersiv gestaltet. Wir haben in dem Raum, der in Gänze im Sinne der historisch-fiktionalen Story gestaltet ist, die Zeit vergessen, was ein gutes Zeichen ist. Einzig die Fokussierung auf ein Notizbuch, auf das man schon vor Spielbeginn hingewiesen wird (also kein Spoiler!) führt dazu, dass man eingeschränkt parallel arbeiten kann und recht viel lesen muss. Das passt zwar inhaltlich zur Story, bremst aber etwas den Spielfluss. 

Betreut wurden wir sehr freundlich und kompetent durch Sabine, herzlichen Dank! Der Raum ist wirklich ein (gar nicht mehr so geheimer) Geheimtipp, vor allem für Rätselfreund:innen! 

We were very warmly welcomed and looked after. The communication before and after the game was very kind as well. You immediately notice that the operators have developed and built their rooms with a lot of heart and soul on their own. 

The scenery was convincing and the story understandable and creative. In addition to a bunch of classic puzzles, there were also some special tasks and an entertaining finale. 

Overall, we enjoyed our experience and can recommend the room!

Even if the topic of "time travel" is nothing extraordinary in the escape room industry, this room impresses with its funny setting within the Mad Machines universe. The setting is successful, the puzzles are mostly fitting and entertaining, although in a few places a bit too constructed and therefore unnatural. The integration of the hint system is also well done, so that the room as a whole is recommendable in any case.

A very special room with a primordially human theme, which always provides funny moments. While the theme, scenery and the entire arrangement (the Time Machines universe is in general so much fun) are unique throughout, the puzzles in the second part of the room are rather classic. Nevertheless, this room is an absolute must-play for escape room enthusiasts due to its uniqueness.

Ein tolles Spiel, das schon beim Ankommen in der Location immersive Atmosphäre erzeugt. Die Kulisse sowie Story sind sehr gelungen, es gibt witzige Momente und auch einige herausfordernde Rätsel. Die Betreuung war auch super. Einzig der irrsinnig hohe Preis (ja, Schweiz eben…) ist ein großes Manko. Für keinen Raum habe ich im Verhältnis zur Zeit jemals so viel Geld gezahlt. 

Ein mit viel Herzblut entwickelter Raum, der durch vielfältige Aufgaben und Mechanismen überzeugt, die allesamt zur Story passen. Über den Scare-Factor lässt sich diskutieren, für erfahrene Horrorspieler liegt er eher mild, für Neulinge in dem Genre wird es vermutlich intensiv sein. Das Abenteuer ist in jedem Fall einen Besuch wert und die Betreuung sehr aufmerksam, freundlich und engagiert gewesen!
