About
Descending into the belly of the ship is an adventure in itself: the metal creaks, the history is palpable and the Maas laps outside. Two identical Diepzeebedrog rooms lock teams in an old cold store, where in the late 1990s, when the ship sailed as the ss Rembrandt for Premier Cruises, captain Manus Goudkamp was hatching cruel plans, and players have 60 minutes to save the world. In Metro, travellers with suitcase and ticket in hand must reach the departing liner from Rotterdam Centraal within the hour. The ship also offers a self-guided Escape Experience case for 90 minutes of detective work, which hotel guests can even play in their room.
The games
3 games to choose from
The escape rooms aboard the historic ocean liner ss Rotterdam sit deep in the cold storage areas of the hull. Diepzeebedrog, available as two identical rooms, locks you into an old cold-store as a villainous captain schemes to cause chaos, with a 60-minute limit to save the world. Metro has you racing across Rotterdam by underground to catch the ship before she sails. A self-guided Escape Experience suitcase lets you play detective aboard, even in your hotel cabin.

The experience
The atmosphere and the groups this venue has in mind.
Atmosphere
The deeper you go, the darker it gets: metal creaks and sighs, and you can still smell the steam turbines. Playing inside a genuine ship's hold lends the rooms weight, and about 40 percent of teams escape, with more than 3,500 groups already played and a record of 28 minutes 17 seconds in the cold store.
Who it suits
Experienced friends and colleagues aged 16 and up, in teams of two to six. The twin Diepzeebedrog rooms let two groups of six race side by side, and hotel guests can turn their cabin into an escape room with the suitcase game.
