7 escape rooms

This escape room is in an actual house in the middle of the suburb which is not your typical escape room. It was a more challenging one as there are extra decoys that can trip you up. The game master is very passionate about his room and I really appreciated how he took the time to explain how to solve everything afterwards. Definitely recommend and can't wait for the additional escape room to open soon.

There was no time limit. You can take as long as you need to and the GM won't give you clues unless you ask for it. I like that as it takes the pressure off.

Can you figure out and escape The Mad Scientist! Fun puzzles and a storyline to follow, we really enjoyed this room and our host was lovely and also showed us some behind the scenes of the game. Didn't make it to the bonus room but had a little glitch with one of the puzzles which made our time a little longer. If I'd eaten we could have stayed longer to see the bonus room but will likely return with friends to do again!

Had such a terrific time playing the Mad Scientist! I’ve only seen the in-home/residential set up once or twice before with varying results but this one exceeded my expectations in regard to puzzle design and overall charm. Andrew the owner and designer has done such a wonderful job creating a fun and engaging environment within a limited space, my partner and I were having the best time from start to finish. A relatively quick escape, the addition of 5-10 minutes of bonus puzzles really helped pad this out and give us a more robust experience which I wish more rooms would do at the discretion of how a group is progressing. Had a massive chat to Andrew post game who was a super accomodating host and GM who you can tell really has a passion for what he does. If you’re in Geelong, please go check this one out.

I enjoyed this one! The escape room was located at a house, which gave an awesome feel to what we were doing! Even had some science in it which helped with the theme
