What our players say

First time doing this and had no idea what to expect, but now we’re glad we jumped into it, we had so much fun. Loved the clues, good light exercise too.

Tina G.

We enjoyed seeing everyone’s amazing costumes and also had a blast solving the puzzles, some of the wittiest and fun we’ve seen. Make sure you read ALL the details, there are hidden messages that you’ll need!

Christie L.

We really enjoyed the people we met on the route and the puzzles, our team finished top 5 too!!

Serge A.

Wonderful event! we all put on our fanciest costumes! some completed the quest faster than others… haha. We can’t wait for the next event!

Amazing time with friends, the clues were a bit challenging at first but in the end we found them so witty and fun!

I’ve never done something quite like this before so I didn’t know what to expect. Loved the puzzles, interactivity, the costumes.. very fun time altogether

My team had such a blast! We were four adults and two teenagers and all loved it. We signed up for the next theme launching in a few months

Second time we’re doing this, now with my teen daughters, such a great way to spend time together, looking forward to the next one!

Vic N.

Our team was aged 12 to 67, a rare thing to find an activity fun for all ages. We loved the different parts of the city we discovered and the puzzles had an average difficulty.

Tan G.

Loved every part of it, the story, the challenges, the meeting of new people. And our team won best costume, so proud of them all :)

Davide, E.

Such great value! We were a big team of 10 so we split up and competed against each other, it was very entertaining all around. Make sure your phone is decently charged before the event

Why do you communicate the location of the experience only before the event?

Parades, construction, and other events can affect the route, so we always do a final check before the event. Once we're sure everything is in order, we send you the confirmed location.

Do you use AI for the experience?

The Oz Escape experience is an outdoor escape game played in the real world, designed by our team of expert game designers who have created hundreds of games. As you follow clues and solve puzzles, some tied to real-world elements, you'll need to use your imagination to fully immerse yourself in the character you're playing. To enhance the experience, we’ve used AI to create more engaging visuals, making the adventure even more immersive.
