An escape room at Escape Reality is a game played in real life. Also known as puzzle rooms, live escapes, or room escapes, you and your team are immersed in a scenario where you have just 60 minutes to escape You’ll battle against time to solve puzzles, overcome challenges, and escape the room!
Escape Reality’s escape rooms are a fun and engaging way to get together with your friends, family, or colleagues for something new to try out. It’s the perfect way for everyone to spend an hour, with the enjoyment spanning across generations -whether you’re a teen, student, or adult. It makes for the perfect family day out in Manchester!
Escape rooms are great for improving your team working and collaborative skills as you discover clues, solve puzzles and accomplish goals all leading ultimately to your escape in real life with a few red herrings thrown in for good measure, of course. Many corporates have had their work parties and team-building events at Escape Reality and report that the experience is great for the morale of their staff members, and helps to improve mental health by encouraging bonding with workmates in a fun environment outside of the office.
You may think that an hour seems like a long time to be locked in an escape room, but trust us, it flies by. Having time pressure makes things harder. Think of how many times you’ve been watching the latest daytime quiz show and been screaming the answer at your that the clueless contestant, it’s very different once you’re in there. It will be the fastest 60 minutes of your life and you’ll wonder where all the time went! With a live Game Master to guide you through your visit to Escape Reality, you’ll experience friendly and engaging service from the moment you step through the door until the second you escape (or not!).
Once inside the room, you will be transported into a whole new scenario with our movie-set quality room design. But are you worried about getting stuck? Our helpful and innovative hint system will give you help along the way using a unique method to deliver clues through our iPads.
There are so many Escape Reality escape games to choose from! We have created captivating rooms across a number of genres, including horror, thriller, adventure, and family-friendly. From being transported inside the jungle-themed board game of Jungala, to escaping the world’s most maximum-security prison in Alcatraz or becoming a team of vampire hunters on the search for Nosferatu -there’s something for everyone!
Our rooms are designed in a variety of difficulty levels, so you can choose the best one to suit you based on your experience with escape rooms. So, if you’re a novice, we recommend starting with a room with a 3*or 4* difficulty rating, before becoming a seasoned pro at escape rooms and attempting a more challenging room with a 5*difficulty rating. And please do bear in mind that difficulty ratings can be subjective as something you find super easy may be challenging to someone else, which is why it’s a great tip to bring a group of friends for the best chance of successfully escaping.
Test your problem-solving skills now with our range of puzzles. Having a variety of puzzle types means that you never know what to expect and can put different skills to the test. It’s a good idea to play with others as you may find that someone else in your team is an expert in an area you lack, and so you can work together to get through all the puzzles and trials. Will you work together as the perfect team and escape in 60 minutes? Or will too many cooks spoil the broth and leave you locked in forever? (not really, we will come and let you out, we promise!)
