About
Its escape room is praised by players for immersive decor and a hint system woven unobtrusively into the game, and it appears in rankings of the Benelux's top rooms. Groups can turn it into a full Dagje Escapen with coffee and Limburg vlaai, a lunch and a second escape game, or take the puzzles on the road with Escape Your Car, an escape game built into the players' own car for a self-guided tour with suggested stops. E-chopper game tours combine riding through the region with a game and a meal, for parties of 4 to 50.
The games
1 game to choose from
Forbidden Floor is a one-hour detective escape room hidden above Liesbeth's Grand Café in Horst. The local police have uncovered a forbidden floor in the building, and the investigation has grown too big for them alone, so they call in your team to help close the case. The venue is proud of its place in the Benelux top 50. Other Forbidden Floor activities in the region, from car-based puzzle tours to chopper games, run separately outside the room.

The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
An investigation story set in a real, characterful building, with the cafe's hospitality downstairs. Nearly all puzzles are language-independent, with only a few Dutch texts that are not essential, so international groups can play too. The room has fans but no air conditioning.
Who it suits
Adult friends, couples and colleagues, plus families with children from 12. No escape-room experience is necessary, and seasoned players are advised to come in groups of four or five. A second group can wait with drinks and a bite in the cafe while the first plays.
