You've exposed countless ghost stories as hoaxes and consider yourselves experts in the field. This time, your curiosity leads you to the Dolphin Hotel, specifically Room 1408.

Determined to prove the rumors false, you check in. But this time, it’s not just a spooky tale… The door locks behind you, and an eerie presence fills the room. Something is here with you—something unexplainable. You have one hour to escape. Fail, and your names will be added to the long list of those who never left Room 1408…

Mit dem Auto entweder von der Konrad-Adenauer-Allee bis zum Königsplatz (KÖ) vorfahren und am Beginn der Fußgängerzone rechts in die Katharinengasse abbiegen, dann gleich links in die Wallstraße und dann gleich rechts in das Bleigässchen. Das Parkhaus ist direkt neben unserem Eingang.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost praise the cohesive setting, strong effects, and very friendly, attentive staff. Hints arrive right on cue; the puzzles are creative, varied, and fair. The scare factor with jump scares is often emphasized and makes up much of the appeal. A few want more story depth in the room itself or note small prop details; the price feels a bit high to some.

WeaknessesOccasional desire for more story progression through the puzzles. A small detail critique about a prop was mentioned. Price could be a bit lower for some.

StrengthsAtmosphere, effects, and set design are top-notch and make you forget the game. The tech feels well thought-out and reliable; the puzzles are varied and logical. On-site support is super friendly and attentive.

SecurityClear briefing beforehand; rules are explained understandably. The team watches and helps immediately when needed, which makes you feel safe.

Level of fearNoticeably scary with jump scares, not for the very faint of heart. Recommended 14+, not really suitable for younger kids.

Actors' gameGame Masters are often praised by name and guide the session confidently, kindly, and with good instinct. Hints come only when needed and without giving away the solution.

Quality of riddlesPuzzles are diverse, creative, and fairly solvable; logic over scavenger hunts. A good mix of mechanics, tech, and aha moments, occasionally properly tricky. Experienced groups get their money’s worth; beginners manage well with hints.

PlotYou check in as skeptics to room 1408 and quickly realize something supernatural is wrong. The story carries the tension, though some would like more narrative within the puzzle flow.

Difficulty levelFeels like difficulty 4 out of 5: demanding but doable. Good for newcomers with hints; experienced teams will enjoy the variety.

Perfect for horror fans: lighting, sound, and effects — all on point. We finished with 10 minutes to spare, thanks to fair puzzles. Shout-out to Lena for the great hosting!

Nice setting and creative puzzles, with the host giving tips at the right moment. I only wish the story had been conveyed even more through the puzzles.

Went to the 'Dolphin Motel' as a group of four: very good, varied puzzles, cohesive set design and fine effects. Friendly team, quick to provide hints. Best room so far.

Great room; for my taste, the story could have been conveyed a bit more through the puzzles. Otherwise, great atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Das war zweifellos das beste Escape-Game, das wir jemals in Augsburg erlebt haben. Von Anfang an waren wir von der detaillierten und stimmungsvollen Dekoration beeindruckt, die uns sofort in die Welt von Stephen Kings Roman "1408" hineinzog. Die Gestaltung des Raumes war mit viel Liebe zum Detail umgesetzt, was eine dichte und packende Atmosphäre erzeugte.
