How The Dark Curse Escape Room Works

What are the rules of The Dark Curse Escape Room?

In this innovative outdoor escape room, your group splits into smaller teams. Each uses a mobile app to navigate GPS hotspots, picking up tools and magic points along the way.

How long does The Dark Curse Escape Room last?

The Dark Curse takes 90 minutes to work its magic.

What is an Escape Room?

An escape room is an immersive, interactive game where players work together to solve puzzles, find clues, and accomplish tasks in order to achieve a specific goal within a limited amount of time, usually to escape from a room or location. Escape rooms are a great way to improve team work by encouraging communication, collaboration, and problem-solving skills among team members.

Are escape rooms healthy?

Yes, escape rooms can be a healthy and fun activity for individuals and groups. They promote teamwork, problem-solving skills, critical thinking, and communication. On top of that, they provide a unique and engaging way to bond with friends, family, or colleagues. Just make sure to follow any safety guidelines provided by the escape room facility.

What is the trick to escape rooms?

The trick to escape rooms is all about team work! Communicate effectively with your team, think outside the box, and pay attention to detail. Work together to solve puzzles, find clues, and unlock hidden secrets within the room to ultimately achieve your goal of escaping within the time limit.

Do they actually lock you in escape rooms?

No, participants are not actually locked in escape rooms. The goal is to solve puzzles and find clues to escape within a set time limit, typically 60 minutes. Participants can leave the room at any time if needed. The event is monitored closely by the escape room staff, and you are able to ask to leave  at any point.

Client Kudos

Fantastic day and really enabled people to get to know each other and have a laugh at the same time. Exactly the aim!

University of Edinburgh

With restrictions in place that curtailed our previous plans for the company’s 50th anniversary we were delighted to find a great alternative and a team well-equipped to deliver an event for such a significant milestone. The Maximillion team worked closely with us, making suggestions and sharing ideas to help make our virtual away day celebrations a real occasion. The feedback from the events was really positive and it was great to have a chance to get together in such a fun environment when all the teams have been working so hard over the past months.

Overall Maximillion were fantastic to work with, they were really flexible and happy to work within our event timings and budget. I had several planning calls with them in advance so felt safe in their hands.

Sarah and her team at Maximillion are professional in every way. The quality of events we have run over the last 3 years has been of the highest quality across a mixture of online and larger face-to-face events. You not only get a ‘can do’ attitude but also adaptability as circumstances change and ideas that improve what you are offering your delegates.

The general comment today in the office is how amazing the event was and how much fun people had.

Maximillion was great! They were responsive and accommodating and we would definitely use them again.

Mike and his team did a fantastic job on the run up to and on event day. With the quick turnaround of plans, there was clear communication before, during and after the event. Thank you to Mike and the Maximillion team!

People’s Postcode Lottery

Everything from start to finish was amazing and Jenny kept in constant contact – couldn’t fault Jenny or the company whatsoever. Organisation/Communication was 100% perfect.

White & Mackay

Sarah and her team have proved invaluable to the organisation of our flagship event held in London. We partner with leading physicians from across the world to bring the latest thinking in cardiology to the participants, who come from many countries. This requires a team that operates to a high standard and can offer an experience that all involved remember. A foundation of this is the attention to detail, and a drive to get it right – mostly hidden from all when working well, but very obvious if not done. I have no hesitation to recommend Sarah and her team if you have an event you wish to deliver a the highest standards. The Optima team sends all our thanks to them.

Maximillion ran the Urban Adventure for our teams with the activity run in Edinburgh city centre and the feedback has been nothing but positive. The activity brought teams together from different offices and different business areas and was a great way for everyone to get to know each other in a fun and informal activity.
