What is a live escape room game?

Accepted Answer

A Mindworks escape room game is a live immersive, puzzle-solving adventure that leads you through a series of challenges, nifty-tricks and games to truly test you and your team's wits!  ⏳🧨 Think Crystal Maze meets Sherlock Holmes!

Our games are designed and built by us, and hosted by our incredibly talented and entertaining cast of in-character games hosts!

Work together to search for clues, solve the brain-boggling puzzles and unravel the story, all within the 60-minute countdown! Our multi-award-winning escape rooms offer unforgettable fun - perfect for families, friends and colleagues! ⚙️🕰️🕹️

Question 2

What is Mindworks VR+?

Accepted Answer

Mindworks Virtual Reality+ is a fully immersive, multiplayer, free-roam VR gaming experience that puts you and your team inside the game. 
When you put on a VR headset, the real room disappears and is replaced by a 360° world around you. This isn't like an at-home console, and you won't be stood still - you move your body, turn your head, use your hands and move around the space. What you do in real life is what your character does in the virtual world.

Mindworks VR+ takes place in a 5 m × 5 m open arena.
 This is free-roam VR, which means:
You can walk around freely
You can turn, explore and move naturally
You can see and play alongside your teammates inside the same virtual world
There are no cables, no treadmills, and no standing still in one spot. If you walk forward in the room, you walk forward in the game.

The arena itself has been created and designed by us, with interactive lighting and physical set elements, blurring the line between the real world and the virtual one.

You’ll be equipped with cutting-edge VR headsets and hand controllers, tracking every movement with precision. Beneath your feet, our reactive floor vibrates and responds to the action - so explosions, impacts and environmental moments don’t just look real… they feel real too.

Mindworks VR+ is run with the same award-winning care and creativity as our escape rooms:
You’re welcomed by an in-character host who's there to guide you
Your host sets-up the games, gets the team going and stays on-hand throughout
Thoughtful interactivity, pacing and atmosphere - designed by live escape-room creators
You finish with a team photo and a personalised team card to remember your adventure, like any other Mindworks experience
This means you don’t need to be “good with tech” or know anything about VR beforehand. We guide you every step of the way!
