About
Something terrible happened in Het LAB decades ago, and experienced players aged 16 and up, or 12 with an adult, must find out what before time runs out. DOKA, named after the photographer's darkroom, asks visitors to see the light in a shadowy world using technology and common sense, and is suited to first-timers and intermediates. The Break-in Room flips the format so teams must puzzle their way inside rather than out, with a full version for fanatics, a family edition and a kids' version from age eight. The venue is open daily from late morning until late evening by reservation.
The games
3 games to choose from
Room Escape Enschede, on the first floor of the Performance Factory, builds its three games around the old Polaroid factory. Het LAB is a mystery about a terrible accident decades ago in a sealed Polaroid research lab, recommended for advanced escapers; DOKA is the darkroom where instant film was loaded, now home to a sinister presence and a puzzle you can only solve in near-darkness, suited to first-timers and intermediates; and the Break-In Room De Werkplaats turns the genre inside out by starting outside the room and puzzling your way in.

Atmosphere

Groups from two to more than thirty, with three to five players per room ideal. Het LAB is for advanced escapers, DOKA for beginners and intermediates, and the Break-In Room has adult, family and kids (8 and up) versions for three to eight players, ten at a push.
