About the escape room

You are adventurers, always in search of the next adrenaline rush. Mysterious? Or even—forbidden? Nothing is too daring for you, so you seek out the master of the Black Market. Pssst! He has a tip for you: there is supposed to be a puppet theater where spectators disappeared without a trace and were never seen again. Rumors have it that the mad puppeteer doesn’t play with lifeless dolls, but with real, living people in his theater! And selected guests seem to have found his performance memorably enduring. They’ve become puppets! After lengthy negotiations, you are finally proud holders of tickets for this theater. In the dark, you are led to your seats, but where are the chairs? The spotlights turn on, you are in a cage – the show has already begun. With you.

Overview of artificial intelligence

AIMost praise the cohesive set design and the eerie, detail-rich stage. Puzzles run reliably, are tricky but fair, and put teams into a good flow. The game master is described as very friendly and attentive; hints are available when needed. Doable with two, but a larger group is often recommended.

WeaknessesWith two, it gets tough quickly; many advise going with four. There are hardly any concrete complaints, apart from noting it’s demanding.

StrengthsAtmosphere and scenery are high-quality and dense, including small effects. The puzzles work cleanly and offer a nice mix; the hosting is warm and helpful.

SecurityGood organization and clear briefing are repeatedly praised; safe, measured hints are available if needed. Reviews do not mention any safety issues.

Level of fearThe room is creepy with lots of atmospheric detail, without explicit horror. Suitable for adults and sturdier-nerved teens; not ideal for very anxious children.

Actors' gameThe game master acts attentive and friendly and gives hints only if you want them. Live acting isn’t mentioned in reviews; interaction is mainly via the game master.

Quality of riddlesTech-tinged, varied, and challenging, yet fundamentally fair. Many teams report a good flow and stable, well-functioning mechanisms. Tricky enough to engage experienced players as well.

PlotYou land in the show of the notorious puppeteer and become part of the production yourselves. The legend carries through the game and keeps the tension until the end.

Difficulty levelOverall medium to hard. Demanding with two; for many, four feels just right.

Visually, a beautifully designed room—creepy and full of lovely details. The rather technical puzzles are challenging and tricky. We were a group of four and got out after 54 minutes; our game master was very friendly.

What an atmosphere! The stage, lighting, and sound pull you in immediately, and the opening caught us completely off guard. Puzzles are demanding but logical, and hints only came when we truly asked for them. Strong all around.

Very cohesive and crafted with love. One puzzle slowed us down quite a bit; otherwise, everything went smoothly. A clear recommendation for fans of snappy puzzles.
