About
Two stories share the island. In Cast Away, the sole survivor of a crashed cargo plane gathers the undelivered parcels, finds Mr Wilson and plans the escape by raft, while Lifeguard's Locker revisits valuables that vanished from visitors in the days of the old Warande, possibly taken by one of the lifeguards. Each game lasts 60 minutes, the second is rated a notch harder, and both can be played back to back. Because it is played outside in all weathers, it pairs well with GibbonSport's other outdoor activities such as fatbike rides.
The games
2 games to choose from
Escape Island, run by GibbonSport at recreation park De Warande in Oosterhout, is an escape room played outdoors on a real island, finishing with an escape by actual raft. Cast Away has you as the sole survivor of a crashed parcel-plane, determined to deliver the packages and find Mr Wilson. Lifeguard's Locker sends you after valuables that vanished in the old Warande days, only to find yourself handcuffed on the island. Each takes 60 minutes, and both can be played back to back or head to head.
Difficulty
The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
Part puzzle, part expedition: physical challenges are woven in, the weather is real, and the finale is a raft crossing. It is the kind of escape where you dress for rain, bring mosquito repellent and enjoy being outside, and groups of up to 16 can compete across the two stories.
Who it suits
Adventurous friends, colleagues and families with teens. Cast Away is rated three stars and Lifeguard's Locker four. Players should be 16 or older, with an exception for families with children from 12, and a swimming diploma is required.
Good to know
Intensity, accessibility, booking and facilities, as the venue lists them.
Physical tasks are part of the puzzles, the game is outdoors in all weather, and the escape is by raft, so a swimming diploma is required.
