A restricted area harbors a dangerous extra-terrestrial cover-up. Unravel the secrets to contain the damage. The Alien Containment Facility has guarded state secrets for decades but you’re in the middle of a Level 5 disaster. The off-the-record experiments have become more and more dangerous lately, and the extra-terrestrials have started to be hostile. Something has just happened in the lab, and you know it’s nothing good. As you enter this restricted area, can you protect this information…and yourselves? Area 405 transports you to an alien research lab gone awry, where you should expect the unexpected. The puzzles here will challenge your teamwork ability.

Good room for beginners! We had a group of five experienced people and struggled to find something for everyone to do.

This was a very basic room with few frills and not many puzzles to solve. The puzzles themselves were straightforward, often involving simply reading numbers or letters. When we escaped we had to alert the staff as they were not monitoring us.

Very basic room. We went there with another room in mind (lost antidote) but were told by their staff that Area 405 was their most difficult and immersive room. We took their word for it, now wished we hadn't. No camera or mic in the room, so the staff couldn't monitor our progress in any way - they didn't even know we'd escaped. Once out, I had to walk down the corridor to the lobby shouting, "Hello! We've escaped!". They were shocked to see me, and had no idea we were out or even how much time had elapsed. Spent way too long on one puzzle, otherwise could have escaped much quicker than the 27 minutes it took us. Probably the worst escape room experience I've ever had and ironically one of the most expensive - they price their rooms as a flat fee of $106 (inc tax), so with only 3 of us playing, it made for a higher than usual per person fee.

It had maybe 6 puzzles overall so a group of 6 people - it was over super quick. We didn’t even realize the game was over until the GM walked in.
