Escape Rooms - A Unique and Fun Date

If you’re planning on going out on a date and you’re looking for something a bit different, then perhaps we can help. We think our Escape Rooms here at Colchester are a great way to do something unconventional and fun. If you’re wondering what on earth Escape Rooms are and whether or not you should try it, then let us tell you about them first.

Our Escape Games are perfect for a date.

They’re innovative and different, and a million light years away from another boring night out. Instead you have an hour to play an interactive game where you hunt for clues in a themed room, no time for awkward conversations and embarrassing silences while you struggle for something to say. There’ll be plenty to talk about in your hour together in this Escape Game Challenge! 

Do something fun with someone you really like.

You don’t have to spend time doing something that’ll make you feel like you wish you hadn’t gone out. Why not build up anticipation over what the evening could bring rather than wonder with dread as to how you’re going to get through it sane? In fact, you could even go on a game with your long-term boyfriend or husband as well as a first date. Why not do something fun and exciting with your best friend and fellow ally through life and see who wins?

Memories are made of this, for fun memories you won’t forget.

From navigating the room together and finding those clues, and all the funny things that happen along the way, it’ll will provide you with lots to talk and laugh about later. You’ll be returning to it again and again for light relief in the worst of times and referring to it with friends when you recount how much fun you both had and how you managed to complete the task. Where did it lead? Did you see each other again afterwards? Was it a long time? Did you argue or laugh about it later?

Prepare for the best date of your life.

It could even be one of the best dates you’ve ever been on. And as well as this you’ll be able to enjoy having your adrenaline soar as you enjoy the intense joy and excitement of playing the game – together. The rush of endorphins without the dangerous activities you’d normally have to do to get that, and what’s more you can even dress up if you want. That’s an ice breaker you won’t forget.

Escape Colchester – for a unique night out you’ll never forget with the very best people you share your life with.

And you know what – the chemistry between you and your date could be even better than if you had spent it in a more traditional way. We think you’ll love it and it’s an experience you’re not likely to forget, so why not come on down? Book online or over the phone and we’ll see you here!

Escape Room Birthday Parties

You have a birthday coming up and you know what this means, another day where you struggle to look surprised when they shout er…‘surprise’ and spring another party on you. You’ve been here so many times, not just for you but for other people too. It’s not very original or surprising anymore either. 

What you want is a whole new way to celebrate your own birthday and your friends and family. You’re looking for something original and unique, something that will transport you to a different world and where you can celebrate without having to look constantly surprised – ‘fake’ surprised. 

Welcome to the Escape Rooms.

Here at Colchester we see all sorts coming in, those who are here to manage corporate teams and look out for particular key skills, students who are getting away from their books and those who are here to celebrate a milestone event in their lives. Of course, they also come here in droves to celebrate birthdays too.

Why are Escape Game birthdays Popular?

Firstly, they’re nowhere near as expensive as hiring a venue and having a full-blown birthday party. There’s no cake, presents or paying for alcohol and food. There’s just the one price for the Games and then it’s a case of inviting everyone to come. 

There are no height or age restrictions, unless of course you’re a child, in which case we advise that you come with an adult. There are very little in the way of height restrictions at our Escape Room Games, it’s for all ages - and all heights! As long as you’re interested in winning and in the game then that’s all you need to bring with you - just a lot of enthusiasm.

Teamwork is important.

You have to work together so there’s no-one left out. Nobody sits in a corner without anyone to talk to, this game is interactive and therefore requires everyone’s input. You are all working together as a team towards a common goal, no room then for who’s speaking to who and any arguments, just playing the game to win.

Something Different.

Escape Rooms offer something different for a birthday birthday. You’ll also find that all the rooms we use are themed escape rooms with ideas taken from popular culture be it a movie, book or game. You’ll love it because the rooms are so convincingly and accurately furnished throughout, allowing you to get lost in your imagination.

Escape Rooms have become popular relatively recently, starting out in Japan, becoming successful then in the United States and now here in the UK. They’re successful for a reason because they’re so much fun. 

Escape Colchester – for making your birthday the best yet.

Nobody wants a boring birthday party and we won’t let it be either. Come on down and enjoy the fun and let your birthday, or your friends, be the best one it’s ever been. Don’t let another year go by with a boring ‘surprise’ birthday party. Book your room online or over the phone and we’ll see you here.
