Legend has it that eons ago a dragon and phoenix found a large shiny stone by a stream. The dragon diligently honed it into a pearl glowing with prosperity. The phoenix then infused it with fire and the essence of longevity. Attracted by its fiery glow, a heavenly queen ordered her guards to descend to Earth to steal it one night as they slept. Upon learning of her treachery, the enraged dragon and phoenix flew up to the heavens to retrieve their beloved pearl. But as they scuffled with the queen, the pearl fell into a deep lake and was lost. An antiquities dealer found the mystical pearl during a recent expedition. He crafted it into a powerful amulet that has blessed him with good fortune and health. It's well hidden in a special room and protected by 12 exotic mechanisms inspired by the animals of the Chinese Zodiac. Your team of treasure hunters have managed to sneak into that room. But can you deactivate the challenging security system and steal the flaming pearl before being caught?

One of our favourite rooms on the Gold Coast. This is a multi-linear room with Chinese zodiacs theme and heaps of fun puzzles. Some of the puzzles did not work properly but did not stop us from enjoying the gameplay.

This was the final room we had left to complete at this location, and it absolutely delivered! Just like the others, the puzzles were smart, engaging, and flowed beautifully. Every moment felt immersive, with high-quality props and a well-designed set that really drew us into the story. Having now done all the rooms here, I can confidently say the standard across the board is consistently high. The staff are always welcoming and passionate, which adds to the experience every time. Highly recommended for anyone looking for top-tier escape room adventures.

Great room! Puzzles were fantastic - simple enough to make sense of what to do but difficult enough to keep us thinking and on our toes!

Really good room, good structure, clear what to do and what puzzle to work on. Well designed and really like that all the puzzles are mechanical and technical and no locks or numeral code cracking required. Well done :) Sizewise: when you are only 2-3 people, upside is you really get to do every single puzzle and can soak it all in. Downside, you have to be advanced and quick and get the puzzles done quick, otherwise you might not make it in time. There‘s a lot of puzzles to this room. When you are a lot of people, say 5 or maybe even more: Upside is, you get the room done in time easily as you can split up in little teams and work on multiple puzzles simultaneously. That‘s good. Downside, with too many people, from a single persons pov, you will miss out on half the puzzles or more and even though you‘ll make it in time, you will have no clue what the other little teams have actually done and what cool puzzles you missed out on. So both advantages and disadvantages. 🤷🏻‍♂️

This room was flat-out brilliant. Instantly jumped to my top 5. At first glance, it might seem a bit overwhelming, but it only took a minute to figure out where we should start, and everything from that point on was super straightforward. I quite liked being able to spend my time working on puzzles rather than wasting time figuring out where we should be looking. I really enjoyed the mix of puzzle types in the room. I appreciated that although there were starting points for many puzzles, there was a clear flow for which puzzles we should focus on and where we should move to each stage. The progress wheel was also a handy tool.

Gameplay

The room flowed really well. The puzzles are broken into chunks for each sign of the Chinese zodiac, and you always knew you were working on the right thing based on the animal that was featured.

Atmosphere

The room was gorgeous. The theming and decor were expertly applied, and I kept stopping to gaze at the artifacts and decorations around the room.

Customer service

Ruby was great as a GM. Not too intrusive, only chimed in once when we were really struggling.

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

The structure of the room, with the focus on the Chinese Zodiac, was very different and creative.

This room was fantastic!! Really great for larger groups as you work on different puzzles at the same time and they’re all well thought out mechanical puzzles not a lock in site. Not to give anything away but there’s an ingenious way of tracking which puzzles you’re on if you get lost. Love it!!
