Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to what most people ask before booking. If you don't find your answer, feel free to write or call us.
Prices and booking
How much does it cost to play an escape room?
The price is per person and depends on how many you are and when you play. The more you are, the cheaper it gets per person.
The easiest way to find the best price:
1. Choose the escape room you want to play.
2. Choose how many players you are. In the calendar, the days with the best price are highlighted.
3. Choose a date. You will then see the available times with the price per person.
If there is a cheaper time on the same day or another day, we will show it as a hint below the list. The price includes VAT, and you will see the total price before booking.
Do I need to book in advance?
We recommend booking in advance, especially on weekends and holidays, to ensure your preferred time slot. However, you are always welcome to try your luck and show up in Gothersgade or Vridsløselille.
What if we are more than 6 people?
Most of our escape rooms accommodate 2–6 players. Olsen Bandens Største Kup and Olsen Bandens Sidste Plan can take up to 7, and Spymaster Protocol up to 5.
If you are a larger group, choose Flugten fra Vridsløselille. We have 6 identical rooms, so up to 36 people can play the same game at the same time. You play team against team and can compare times afterward.
In total, we have 9 escape rooms in the old prison in Vridsløselille with space for 56 people at once, and 5 escape rooms in Gothersgade in Copenhagen K. You can also book different rooms for the same time slot.

The experience
How long does an escape room last?
The game itself lasts 60 minutes. With an introduction beforehand and a chat with the game master afterward, you should allow about 1.5 hours in total.
Is there an age limit?
Participants under 8 years old should be accompanied by an adult.
What do we need to bring?
Just your sense of adventure! All necessary equipment is provided.
Are escape rooms scary?
If you are looking for a scary escape room, you should book "The Ring", "Seven" or "Fængselslægens Hemmelighed". The rest of our escape rooms are not scary at all.
Can we play in English?
Most escape rooms can be introduced and played in English. However, the two Olsen Banden escape rooms can only be conducted in Danish.
Practical
Where are your escape rooms located?
We have two locations in Copenhagen: one in the former Vridsløselille prison featuring escape rooms in authentic prison cells, and one centrally located in Copenhagen with easy access to public transport.
