The experience

About this quest

In the moonlit night, you, Zelea Codreanu, the cunning leader of the notorious "Iron Guard" organization, assemble your team for an audacious heist. 

Their target is the heavily fortified Diamond Pavilion, a place guarded by formidable security systems and armed personnel. You are known for your ice-cold demeanor and sharp intellect, traits that have earned you the respect of your team.

Is this for you?

Who it's for

Friends and couples on a day trip from Ploiești or Bucharest, and locals after an outdoor escape-room-style game, get a 2.4 km heist through town, past City Hall, the monastery and the Nicolae Iorga bust. It is free to play and takes around 100 minutes. Pick something else if a plot casting you as the Iron Guard's real-life leader sits badly with you.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the heist game start and finish in Vălenii de Munte?
It starts at the "John the Baptist" Church and finishes at the "Nicolae Iorga" National College, so it does not return to the start. Along the way you pass City Hall, the Teleajen valley nature museum, the Adormirea Maicii Domnului monastery, Hotel Ciucas and the old park.
How long does it take and how far is the walk?
Players typically take around 100 minutes, walking and puzzles included, so plan on close to two hours. The route covers about 2.4 km on foot through the town, with twelve stops in a set walking order.
Is it free, and can we play as a group of friends?
Yes, it is free to play, and no attraction tickets are needed at any stop. Friends or couples can play together on a phone, following the story from stop to stop and solving each puzzle in what is in front of them.
Do we need to book a time, and can we pause?
No booking is needed. You start whenever you like, with no group to join and no guide to meet. If you want a break for food or coffee, you can pause the game and continue later from where you stopped.
Can we play it at night, as the story suggests?
Although the plot is set on a moonlit night, playing at night is not recommended. The puzzles are set in the streets and buildings around you, so plan to walk the route in daylight.
