“The story is simple, yet effective: reach West Berlin before you're caught! The strength of this room is its décor and the ambiance it creates: you really feel back in the times of East and West Berlin. The way of giving hints is very interesting in this room, and only puts you more into the theme.”

“I may be biased as an english tourist in Berlin when I did this room, but thus far this has been my favourite room of any country I have been to and done an escape room. Dynamic, involved, very english friendly despite being in the heart of berlin. Highly recommend so long as you can handle a bit of spookyness. We escaped as a 2 but it was hard. Without giving spoilers the more observant escapers have an advantage over puzzling escapers. The puzzles aren't necessarily difficult but spotting and realising what goes where is the challenge of this room.”

How Do Escape Rooms Work?
Remember those point-and-click adventure games where you’re locked in a room and have to solve puzzles to find the key and escape? Those online games were the original inspiration for the live escape rooms you’ll find all across the world today. An escape room is an immersive experience where you (and your team of 2 or more people) are locked in a room with a series of puzzles for 60 minutes. To escape and win the game, you have to look for clues, solve the puzzles, and find the key. While most escape rooms only give you 60 minutes to complete the challenge, others may have shorter or longer time limits. Many venues are private rooms where you and your team are the only players. However, some places may pair you with other groups who booked a slot at the same time. And don’t worry about getting stuck, asking for hints on a difficult puzzle is totally normal. While the original escape room (created by SCRAP in 2007) had a fairly simple aesthetic, today’s escape games often take you into a different world. Artistic set designs, secret doors, and unique interactive elements are all part of the fun. It’s like an adventure game that you can interact with in real life. But if you’re hoping to preview any rooms before you book a game somewhere, detailed images and videos can be hard to find. To keep the puzzles a secret and preserve the experience of seeing the room for the first time, most venues only offer a few photos or a short trailer about the room’s theme or narrative. The only way to know what it’s like is to go and try it for yourself!
