The Escapeopolis Project

At The Escapeopolis Project, 60 minutes is all that the small teams of friends, family members, or Houdini impersonators will have as they attempt to unlock a tightly fastened door before time elapses and the game is tallied as yet another win for the room and its devious challenges.

Escaping from the themed rooms requires keen problem-solving skills as well as a group of two to ten people — depending on the room — that can communicate efficiently while working together to find new clues.

Each uncovered clue places teams one step closer to achieving their ultimate goal: unlock the door and flee the room before the countdown ends. Success may earn the group a place on The Escapeopolis Projects's wall of fame, although failure may inspire a repeat visit to try again.
