About
INFERNO starts like a shift at the fire station: an alarm comes in, the crew turns out and, to extinguish the fire in an old café, has to solve a series of challenging puzzles on the way, from age 12, with a dedicated kids' version for younger players. Geppetto is a 90-minute story for two to four players about the friendly clockmaker and puppet master of Katwijk aan Zee who vanished after Pinocchio failed to return from school, leaving behind a workshop where neighbours hear strange sounds. Teams of two get 70 minutes for INFERNO, and bookings can be made online up to a day ahead or by phone for same-day play.
The games
3 games to choose from
Timed Adventures in Katwijk aan Zee has three rooms. INFERNO, A Day in the Life of Heroes, makes you stand in for a fire crew: the alarm sounds and you race to an old cafe to find and fight a fire by solving puzzles along the way. INFERNO KIDS is a friendlier firefighter story for children aged 9 to 12. The newer GEPPETTO tells of a vanished clockmaker and his puppet-maker's workshop, where ticking and music still seem to come from behind closed doors.
