If you've got questions, we've got answers. Check out our most frequently asked questions here:
WHAT ARE ESCAPE ROOMS?
An escape room is an adventure game in which players solve a series of puzzles and riddles using clues, hints and strategy to complete the objective at hand. Players are given a set time limit to unveil clues which are hidden within the rooms in order to solve a quest. Rooms are not locked at any time and lights are always on.
We have four themed rooms at our downtown Portsmouth office that allow groups to work as a team to complete a specific set of task to complete a specific goal. These are available to company/corporate events during the week (by appointment) and available to others on the weekends by booking online.
