The area
Address
Neighbourhood: Malá Strana (Little Quarter)
Malá Strana is one of the oldest and the most beautiful neighbourhoods in the city. Nestled underneath Prague Castle it was once a part of the Kings route taken by future kings on their way to coronation - originating in the Old Town, crossing Charles Bridge and leading to Saint Vitus Cathedral. Cobblestone streets are lined with picturesque medieval houses, remarkable palaces, churches, kitsch shops and restaurants. Do not hesitate to turn a corner into any narrow street. You will suddenly find yourself in a calm and charming neighbourhood full of hidden gardens, parks with peacocks, fruit trees and ponds. As the neighbourhood is a home to Czech Parliament and many ministries, you can also run into well-dressed officials. If you are thirsty or hungry, it is the right place to be. Restaurants offer delicious traditional food and of course, the best Czech beers.

We played the apartment escape room together with my wife and it was a great experience. Great details and awesome moments of horror. Excellent when the weather outside is poor or when you are tired of the tourist madness in the center. Recommended if you like escape rooms with and are not scared of a small touch of horror

At first we really didn't know what to expect and we needed some help to get started. When we were finally launched, we had a great time solving the puzzles and walking trough the city. We had some really nice views and things to see. An original way to visit Prague and to get to know some location. Very do-able for everybody who likes to have some fun!

Thank you for this great expercience!!

Great experience. Helpful staff, cool effects, nice story (bit chaotic, but it is a part of experience - you have to solve the mystery, not only escape)

Me and my friends have been to a bunch of different escape rooms. Sadly, this was probably the worst one so far. We were told, that there is a criminal case behind this story and we didn't feel like we were solving the case, but doing something completely different that was not linked to the initial background we were provided. The game was not really logical and the clues were not direct, therefore we spent roughly 15 minutes just wandering around the room because we didn't know what to do. Overall the game was just scary, but not really entertaining. We were disappointed because we didn't solve the case. We didn't even know what the finishing point was until the game master told us, that we won and it was over.
The story just didn't make sense to us, and neither did the clues.

The game byt 13 (apartment 13), involves performing two mock occult rituals, one is like a seance the other involves standing on a pentagram. Both rituals involve chanting something that may be in Sumerian, or may be in a made up language..

Rituals like this are dangerous even if you think they are make-believe. For this reason, people should avoid this game.

This escape game through the city is a very nice way to discover not only the center of Prague, but also lot of details hidden on the walls, doors, monuments, …
We were two people and did it in 3 hours.
I will definitely recommend this experience for tourists!

We played the escape game together with our children (9 and 11) and it was nice experience. Although they were frightened a little, they liked it. The game has great setting.
