I thought others might benefit from a table summarising all of the escape hunt rooms that are currently available in Sydney, Australia.
See the table below (updated on 18 January 2015). I'd be really interested in any feedback or comments that you have on any of the Sydney escape rooms (good or bad).
Here's the table - I hope it is useful!

My
equal favourite in Sydney so far. It’s pricey (up to $45 per person)
but worth it. See my full review here.

My
least favourite of those I have tried so far in Sydney (mainly due to poor
theming), but still lots of fun. See my full review here.

I
haven’t tried this one yet. Lots of options and cheap prices (often on
Groupon or become a member for free on their website for discounts).

I
haven’t tried this one yet (but one of the themes is “pirates” so
you know it’s going to be good!)

My
fourth favourite (so far) of those we have tried in Sydney. A couple of
problems with puzzles in one of their rooms but otherwise excellent
theming. See my full review here.

This is
my equal favourite escape room outfit in Sydney so far. The quality of
the puzzles and theming were excellent. I think this is a really good option
if you have never done any escape rooms before. See my full review here.

We did
their "Forensic" room, which was incredibly hard. I would put
this room at probably my third favourite in Sydney so far. See my full
review here.

I’m
really looking forward to checking this one out. It still hasn’t opened
(hopefully January/February 2015).

Hi! I've been refreshing Australian listings at escaperoomdirectory.com and this summary is super helpful.
ReplyDeleteOne issue is that I just get "509 Bandwidth Exceeded" errors trying to load http://roomescape.com.au/. Do you happen to know the names of their rooms?
Hi Daniel
DeleteThanks for your comment. I too am getting the same error from the Room Escape/Escape Club website.
By memory, there are 6 rooms that they offer. I can remember the names of 4 of them:
- The Curse of Hogwarts
- Prison Break
- Virus
- Chimera
The other 2 I think were recently updated (and I think they replaced 2 other rooms). I'm not sure of the names of the new rooms (although I think one was about archaeology). I will post another reply later if I remember their names (or when I am able to confirm from their website).
Thanks
Scott
Aha! Using that partial information and Google's web cache, I get that the other two are "Ghost Maze" and "Tomb Raider". The "chimera" room is called "07th November" ("Chimera" is the genre, apparently?).
DeleteUpdated!
Great news.
DeleteTwo days before Christmas is not a great time of year for their site to go down! Hopefully they don't lose too much business as a result.
