About the escape room

There are many beautiful houses in Leipzig. You are traveling as a real estate agent to find a new property for your customer. Suddenly there is a rare opportunity – an old house is provided by the city free of charge. The house has been empty for several months, the neighbors think it is cursed. Rumor has it that an entire family has disappeared there. Of course you don’t believe in this nonsense and go on a tour. But suddenly the front door closes behind you and you can’t get out. It’s dark … You hear a child laughing … Something is moving … What’s happening? Are there really ghosts? Now you have to find out for yourself. You only have 60 minutes until you are trapped in this house forever. And the clock is already ticking …

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIPraised are the modern, lock-free puzzle mechanics and the very coherent set design. The gamemasters act committed and interactive, hints arrive right on time. The challenge is tricky but fair; beginners felt well guided. Many say they’ll come back for more rooms.
WeaknessesThere’s barely any criticism in the voices available. If you love classic number locks, you might miss them here. For purists, the style may feel a bit tech-heavy.
StrengthsTech and mechanisms are varied and feel of a piece, the rooms are lovingly and richly detailed. The staff are described as warm, attentive, and adept at leading the game. Cleanliness and upkeep of the venue stand out positively.
SecurityThe briefing and supervision are mentioned positively; the group felt well looked after. Rooms appear well-kept and clean, with no reports of issues.
Level of fearTangible tension with a few well-placed scares, but without harshness. For the sensitive, it depends on the day; overall moderately spooky.
Actors' gameThe gamemaster (she) is explicitly praised for her timing, joy in play, and fitting assistance. Interaction feels approachable and noticeably boosts immersion.
Quality of riddlesTricky, logical, and varied, often via sensors and mechanics instead of number codes. The tasks feel fair and give clear feedback when something is triggered.
PlotYou’re touring an allegedly cursed, vacant house as real estate agents—and suddenly you’re stuck. 60 minutes remain to uncover the secret and get out again.
Difficulty levelRather medium to challenging, doable with hints. Beginners make it with guidance; experienced players get enough bite.

We played the haunted house and were totally hooked. After many escapes elsewhere, what really won me over here was the modern technology and the variety; the puzzles are challenging, and the possibilities are much greater than in classic rooms. Our game master ran the game brilliantly and was clearly having fun. Strong recommendation!

Our game master was worth her weight in gold: present, witty, and with perfectly calibrated hints. The tech ran buttery smooth, the puzzles had bite. Highly recommended!

Very cool setting and great effects, but for me personally a tad too tech-heavy—I also like a classic castle now and then. Still, a great experience and I’d definitely go again.

A fresh escape game with completely new possibilities. Instead of locks, you solve puzzles using mechanisms and technology—it feels really clever. Simply great!
