About
The story begins with a young woman who walked through a strange hole in a wall and vanished; searchers found a maze of passages leading to a magical land, and no expedition has returned since. Players step into that Wonderland of dressed-up animals and brightly coloured flowers and must keep an eye on the clock to find their way out. The single room takes two to six players aged 15 and over, or younger children from about 11 with an adult, with 60 minutes of play or 70 for teams of two or three. It can be played in Dutch or English.
The games
1 game to choose from
Escape from Wonderland is a single, lovingly handmade room in the centre of Leiden, billed as the escape room you do not actually want to leave. A young woman once walked through a strange hole in a wall and vanished, and rescuers found a maze of passages leading to a magical world where animals wear clothes, flowers bloom in every colour and it is always tea time. Expedition teams who followed her never came back, and now it is your turn, against the clock.

The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
Whimsical and fairytale-like, with reviewers calling it the best room they have played and praising the care and creativity behind the set. The welcome is personal, the reception area is cosy with drinks and a big choice of puzzles and games, and after the game the hosts chat through it and take a photo.
Who it suits
Adults and teens from 15 who enjoy a challenging, immersive room: about 40 percent of groups escape. Younger players from around ten can join with an adult. Only one team can play at a time, with a maximum of six players, so bigger parties are split into shifts.
