About
Inspired by the best game shows and escape rooms, the interactive arena on Teleportboulevard offers 28 different challenges, from Smash & Grab and Basket to Joker, each with its own stress level and maximum score. Teams decide how to tackle them, playing smart to finish as high as possible on the leaderboard, and everyone's talents count, whether speed, precision or puzzle-solving. It is designed for players aged 11 to 99 and suits families, friends and colleagues, from small groups to large teambuilding events.
The games
1 game to choose from
Prison Island Amsterdam is not a single-room escape game but one large, 90-minute team challenge spread over 780 square metres and 28 themed cells. Teams of two to five choose their own route through physical, technical and puzzle challenges that earn 25 to 100 points each, and can replay cells to improve their score while the clock keeps ticking. A live leaderboard in reception and the play zones ranks teams against those of the day, the week and the year.
The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
The mood is closer to a game show than a story-led escape room, with fast reflex games, sporty skills and brain-teasers in one buzzing indoor arena. The venue is air-conditioned and fully indoors, and sessions end with time to review scores over a drink.
Who it suits
Families with children from 11, birthday parties, friend groups, stag and hen parties and company teams, since everyone can contribute something different and cells can be skipped. Up to 22 teams of five can play at the same time, and teams of three or four are recommended.
Good to know
Intensity, accessibility, booking and facilities, as the venue lists them.
The challenges mix light physical activity with time pressure, so comfortable sportswear is recommended and high heels are not allowed. Cells can be skipped if you dislike one, and the venue stresses that you do not need to be very athletic.

Sessions are ticketed online for 90 minutes, with check-in and a briefing about ten minutes beforehand and an optional 30 minutes of extra play on site.
