A novel experience that feels like an interactive museum exhibit. This is Australia's first ever escape room and it shows. Very old-school and not only can you see the inspiration that it gave to all the rooms that followed but you can feel the love that went into crafting this game originally. Don't expect any fancy tech but it doesn't need it with the amount of fun and well thought out puzzles it has.
Took our 7 year old here over the weekend. It was a great experience and really clever clues. Not too hard to work out but enough of a challenge that it felt good to solve them. Our 7 year old was able to get involved and help solve clues and that really made him feel part of it. Highly recommended.

Loved it! A piece of history being the first escape room in Australia. With the evolution of escape rooms across Australia and Melbourne the ingenuity, ambience and cleverness of this room holds up! Grateful to Sam and his family for keeping this gem going. The ambience of the room fits the story to generate mystery and intrigue without being scary. Suitable for families.
I went to this escape room with another adult, a 12 yr old and 9 yr old as it is recommended kids visit the Flemington site instead of the city. Such a great experience and very enjoyable. Amazing brain exercise and gets everyone working together to come up with ideas. We did get stuck a few times! The owner was such a friendly guy, explained things very well. We would do it again for the great time and for the brain! Sorry about not giving details on how the room looks etc because it's all part of the experience!
SO GREAT! Our absolute favorite experience of an escape room ever. Usually escape rooms are just a bunch of puzzles and locks with a theme but this one felt like a legitimate escape room! (Spoilers ahead) The puzzles were not just locks and keypads, but also moving contraptions and nifty tools, involving magnets, UV light, air pumps, pouring water, aligning maps, and tracing directions. I couldn’t rave more about the puzzles without spoiling the room. All the props were on-theme, easy to use, and extremely well built, as well as the room and setting itself. The staff was extremely helpful, providing clues via walkie-talkie, vague enough to not be obvious yet insightful enough to get us through, on theme with the room, and guiding us when we were using something wrongly (which he even mentioned we could ask him to stop doing if we wanted). The puzzles were really built for users in mind, allowing some room for error, and being extremely natural in that you knew exactly when you found the right code/solution. The flow of the challenges was amazing and even enabled us to work on multiple puzzles at once, which was great as we were a family of 6. We were honestly so delighted with the experience — the puzzles weren’t too easy but they were so intuitive that they were exhilarating and I honestly felt so mentally enriched and fulfilled afterwards. We also got this on a midweek discount since we went on a weekday. A great experience and couldn’t recommend this enough. If Google allowed me to give just one 10-star review ever, this would be it.
