About this activity
The Escape Hunt Experience is a unique adventure based on the classic “escape the room” online games now popular in many countries around the world. Originally these were online point and click computer games such as Myst and Crimson Room. They were then made into real life games in Japan around 2007. Players are locked in a simple room with objects and little decoration and feel like being inside a computer game while searching for clues and solving puzzles trying to escape.

This idea spread to other places and The Escape Hunt Experience is proud to take inspiration from these great games yet offer something totally unique. The Escape Hunt Melbourne offers a true “experience” like a mini theme park where you are transported back over 100 years and play the part of a famous London detective with your colleagues trying to solve a murder mystery. As a team you play against the clock in one of the rooms to find the guilty suspect’s identity and thereby find your escape. The adventures last around 90 minutes as after the 60 minute game you can chat about your experience in the luxurious lounge area over a nice cup of tea and then dress up in period costume for photos.

This experience is unique and unlike any other interactive adventure game anywhere in the world and offer many unique features such as the games are available to closed groups from 2 players up to 5 players maximum in your own private room. The game masters are there to play with you and help you where needed and then of course all the post-game entertainment is truly an experience in its own right.
