Epic Escape inspires

Not only in Essen, but throughout Germany.

Everything went smoothly! The staff are all so friendly and flexible! We did the EscapeTour as a bachelor party for my girlfriend and it was a huge highlight for everyone and the puzzle solving was a lot of fun. A clear recommendation!

As a team event, we caught the thief Hector in an Epic Escape and competed against each other in three groups. It was great fun and is definitely worth a recommendation!

We had a lot of fun at Epic Escape in Dresden. The puzzles are exciting and varied. We were guided through the old town along many sights. Always happy to return.

We had a lot of fun on our tour through Leipzig's city center. A great change from escape rooms, as you can do some sightseeing on the side :)

Super team event with tricky and well thought-out tasks that can really only be solved as a team. Great communication with the organizer in advance. By the way, the game takes you past great spots in Hanover. Try it out!

Great outdoor escape game in Frankfurt - it was easy to use, captivating and great fun! We booked it as part of our company team offsite meeting and can recommend it to others. The communication and booking beforehand was very smooth and easy, the team is nice and very responsive. Will consider it again for the future :)

Highly recommended for Erfurt residents and tourists who want to gain a quick and exciting impression of Erfurt - simply for anyone who enjoys a "secret mission". The puzzles are tricky and entertaining to solve. The time limit and the two teams awakened our competitive spirit. I would love to do it again as soon as there is another puzzle to solve.

Great event with cool puzzles. We had a lot of fun and saw Braunschweig with different eyes and discovered new things. Also suitable as a team-building activity among colleagues

We booked the escape game as a Christmas party. We were four people and played as a group. The 90-minute "catch Cobra" was great fun and took us through the city center of Bonn. Thank you Epic escape for the great organization and good communication before and after!

What happens if we don't make any progress?

You don’t need to worry about that. If a puzzle is too difficult, you can always use tips to help you. If these don’t help either, you can easily request the solution.

How do I get the puzzle pack?

What happens in bad weather?

There is no such thing as bad weather, good weather is included! At least that’s what we would like to say. We have planned the routes specifically so that you can take shelter at many stops.

Can I bring my dog with me?

Everyone is welcome here, be it your dog, granny or even your beloved cuddly toy. As we ourselves are great friends of our beloved four-legged friends, they are of course welcome here. However, you should remember to bring a dog bag in case of a mishap on the way.

How far do you have to walk in the Outdoor Escape?

Our Outdoor Escapes are not marathons, but offer a unique puzzle adventure. The walking distance is only 1.2 km and is barrier-free, so Outdoor Escapes are also suitable for people with disabilities. With a playing time of 90 minutes, there is enough time to enjoy the experience to the full without having to run.
