Will I be blindfolded when going into the escape room?

Depends on the group and how immersive you want it to be. If this is too scary for you then just ask your Games Master and this will be respected. We want you to enjoy your experience.

How old do you have to be to complete the escape room?
A minimum of age 8 for most of our experiences, however some are a minimum age of 10-12 dependant of the difficulty. Some also are a minimum age of 15 if the game is what we class as a horror experience.
Do you have to be accompanied by an adult?
If you are 13 or under you will have to have an adult pay and play with you at all times. If you 16 and under you will need an adult at The Escapologist at all times.
What if I start panicking in the escape room?
Don’t worry all doors as you go through the rooms are unlocked at all times so there is always an easy way out.
Is there a waiver?
Depending on the room there will be a waiver, this normally refers to when someone younger that the minimum age of 15 would like to play what we describe as one of our horror experiences.
Is there wheelchair access?
Some of our rooms are wheelchair friendly. The Escapologist will endeavour to ensure you are as comfortable as possible in our rooms. Should a chair be required in the room, simply let us know prior to booking and we can best advise on games that are applicable.
How can I book an escape room?
You can either book by phone, webstore or simply walking in. Please note as above pre-booking online is the cheapest.
Are any of the Rooms Physically demanding?

Not all of our rooms are physical however each room requires a particular element of ability to move to the next stage.
