What is an Escape Room?

Escape rooms are a great kind of intellectual entertainment. Your team will be locked in a specially designed room, filled with puzzles, tasks, and problems to solve. You will have 60 minutes to complete your mission and uncover what happened in the room before your appearance. Each Komnata Quest escape room is a unique immersive experience and has its own special story.

How long does each adventure take?

You will have 1 hour to complete your adventure. You will also need 10 minutes before your experience to prepare and 10 minutes after to debrief and take photos.

Which game should I choose?

Your choice depends on the experience you’d like to get. We have a wide range of escape rooms: detective stories, mystical adventures, Indiana Jones-style missions, horror escape rooms, etc. We suggest you read the descriptions and look at the videos and pictures about the rooms available in your city on our escaper-rooms list. If you are still confused, please do not hesitate to give us a call and we will help you find the perfect adventure!

Komnata Quest escape rooms are a fully immersive experience, which is why we ask you to visit the restroom before you enter the room and leave your electronic gadgets in a locker. If, under any circumstances, you’d like to finish your adventure earlier, we will open the entrance door for you. In some of our adventures, the entrance door is always open so that you can escape at any point of your experience, but unfortunately, you will not be able to return to the rest of your group, in order to avoid disturbing your team members. This particular rule may vary at different venues; please contact us to get more details.
