About
The name Escaperoom Leiden identifies an escape-room venue at Jan van Houtkade in Leiden. The 2311 PD postcode and Leiden locality are part of its address identity.
The games
1 game to choose from
Escaperoom Leiden has one game, set in Rembrandt's secret studio inside the medieval Kruithuisje, a 1485 city-wall tower on the Jan van Houtkade. Art historians say the painter hid a great secret there, the one behind his fame, and you have one hour to find it and escape the tower. Rumour says Rembrandt was possessed in this atelier, and if you fail, you are left in the dark for good. The room is full of riddles, codes, old keys, strange paintings and hidden drawers.
The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
The setting is the real thing: a protected national monument and the only one of Leiden's 33 city towers still standing, once used to load gunpowder onto passing boats. Inside, the room plays with colour, light and darkness, and the masonry marks outside are puzzles of their own.
Who it suits
Friends, colleagues, sports teams and families who like history, culture and mystery, as a change from karting or bowling. The advised age is 15 and up, while a gentler, hint-rich children's version suits ages 10 to 14.
Good to know
Intensity, accessibility, booking and facilities, as the venue lists them.
The room plays with darkness and a mildly spooky story. The door is never locked, there is an emergency button, and the host watches and listens by camera throughout. Groups who want the door kept open can ask beforehand.
Shown only where the venue confirms it. A feature missing here is not confirmed either way.
