The "Break in Prison" room

About this tour

You're locked in a holding cell with 90 minutes before transfer to maximum security. Work through puzzles and clues to pick locks, crack codes, and slip past guards before the van arrives. This escape room in France tests logic and teamwork under pressure, playable by anyone from curious beginners to seasoned puzzle-solvers. No experience needed—just a willingness to think fast and stay sharp.

• Prison-themed puzzles and physical lock-picking challenges
• Works for families, pairs, and large groups alike
• Suitable for first-timers through experienced escapists
• Central location with public transport nearby
• Pram-friendly venue for younger children

What to expect

You'll enter a realistic cell space and face a series of interconnected puzzles—codes to decipher, objects to examine, mechanisms to manipulate. The difficulty ramps gradually, so early puzzles build confidence before tougher challenges emerge. Expect to search, collaborate, and occasionally hit dead ends before breakthroughs. The room doesn't penalise wrong guesses; it rewards observation and lateral thinking. You're racing the clock as much as the puzzles themselves.

Good to know

Arrive 10 minutes early for briefing. The experience suits all fitness levels—mostly seated or standing problem-solving. Buggies welcome in the foyer. Public transport is convenient if you're not driving. Teams of 2–8 work best; larger groups may need splitting.
