"The outdoor escape game was the perfect solution for our small team of 9 people. We were able to play against each other in a battle and pause for as long as we wanted. It was great fun."

"We played with 2 teams. It was important to us that we didn't split up as a group. It worked very well with this escape game. We all enjoyed the route and the opportunity to have a coffee in between was perfect for the outing.
