FAQ
You can play the escape room Mindcrime with 2 to 6 players. You can also opt for the Battle version, where you play in 2 groups of 6 to 13 players in total.
With 7 players, we highly recommend doing the Mindcrime Team Battle or the Black Box. We think that with 7 players in one room, there is just a little too much pressure and too little for everyone to do. Of course it is allowed, so if you want to come with 7 (or 13) players, please let us know. The 7th person then pays 22.50 extra.
The prices for Mindcrime are listed at About Us – Rates, but you can also see them when you click on book now.

You will have a maximum of 60 minutes to unravel the mystery of this escape room.

About our escape rooms
No, our escape rooms aren’t scary. They are exciting. But our rooms aren’t designed to frighten you or have any jump scares.
Playing an escape room under the influence of alcohol or drugs is not permitted. And it’s also not much fun. Because our moderators need to focus on moderating the escape room, it’s not possible to stay in the building of your drunk or under the influence of drugs. If you arrive with someone who’s under the influence you still have to pay for them, even though they cannot play.
The price you pay depends on the escape room you play and the number of people you’re playing with. In general this ranges between 19,50 and 27,50 per person. Please check the booking page for the current price details.
Mindcrime
You and your team are thieves who hunt for the wealth of rich people. But you do this in a very special way: by breaking into someone’s thoughts. You will find clues in the memories. Combine everything you discover and discover the secret of the main character. But make sure he doesn’t wake up!
Sherlock Holmes
You will receive a list of suspects. The police can only hold them for 1 hour. Will you be able to find out in time who killed Mrs. Peacock’s sister?

Time machine
Time Machine is an escape room for children. Professor Jacobs is stuck in the past. Can you manage to free him?
Escape room for kids
Yes, escape room Time Machine is specially designed for children. A Backspace supervisor is in this escape room to help the children if they get stuck. We have special hints for children for Mindcrime and Orient Express. And we watch a camera while we play, so we can help the kids get started a little at the right time.
Children can play our escape rooms from the age of 9 and up. For children under 13 years old, a parent goes with them in the room as an accompanying person or to play together.
For the Time Machine it is not necessary, because there is a game master in the room with them. But depending on the group of kids, we can ask you to join them.
However, we do ask parents to stay in the facility. We have a comfortable lounge with drinks and snacks. Here you can sit and relax while the children play an escape room.
Are the children younger than 13 years old? Then a parent goes along in the Orient or Mindcrime escape rooms. This is fun for the children, but also for the parent. Then you can experience what the children do and how much they like it.
No, you don’t. If you only go along as supervisor you don’t have to pay. You only pay when you are actively playing the escape room with them.
