Finally, escape rooms are opening their doors in Vienna too. Escape room games are based on Japanese adventure computer games. The goal is to free yourself from an exit room in 60 minutes. Participants reach their goal by solving various tasks that require logical thinking. There are various themes and tasks to choose from here.

My own experience with an escape room in Vienna:
I have already participated in an escape room twice and I am thrilled. The tasks are often not easy, I recommend going to an escape room with several people. We were able to solve both tasks in time and had a lot of fun. I can highly recommend an escape room. It's a great gift where you can do something together again.
