The games
5 games to choose from
Emmen Escapes, in the old zoo grounds in the middle of town, bills itself as the largest escape room in the north of the Netherlands. Tokyo Submarine (60 minutes, two to six players) sets you aboard a sunken Japanese submarine in 1945; Zonnesteen: Egypte (75 minutes, four to eight) follows a vanished archaeologist's coordinates to a pyramid; De Mijn (75 minutes, four to eight, or an XL version with extra rooms for nine to sixteen) traps you in an Emmen coal mine; and the Safehouse battle pits two identical detective rooms against each other for up to twelve players. A children's room, De gestolen ketting, is a spy case for kids' parties.
The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
The games are large and varied, from a flooding submarine and a coal-mine shaft to an Egyptian tomb, with the XL mine adding extra rooms and puzzles for big groups. Someone is watching on camera at all times, a team photo is taken afterwards and the game is not physically heavy apart from needing to duck once.
Who it suits
Families, children's parties with up to eight kids and two supervisors, groups of friends and company outings, especially large parties. The venue advises a minimum age of 12, with younger children welcome as part of a family or group if you contact them first, and anyone under 18 should be accompanied by an adult.
