An escape room is an adventure where you have to solve different puzzles as a group. You are given 60 minutes to do this. In the first escape rooms, the goal was actually literally to escape from a room. Meanwhile, there are different stories, where you have to solve a murder or crack a safe, for example. You enter the escape room together with friends or family. At Backspace, we have different escape rooms for groups of 2-6 people, 6-12 people (in 2 teams against each other) and 7 to 24 people. We have also created special escape rooms for <a href=\"https:\/\/backspace-escaperooms.nl\/en\/escape-room-families\/\">families<\/a>,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/backspace-escaperooms.nl\/en\/escape-room\/kinder-escape-room-de-tijdmachine\/\">children<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/backspace-escaperooms.nl\/en\/escape-room\/black-box-escape-room-for-groups\/\">companies and other (sports) teams<\/a>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9f7a6d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9f7a6d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Puzzles escape room<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c537cbd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c537cbd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>What is a puzzle? The puzzles in an escape room are all different. At Backspace, we find it important that the puzzles fit well with the theme and that you can solve the puzzles in different ways each time. For example, there are puzzles you have to solve by using objects you find in the room. Other puzzles require different senses, or practical insight and creativity.<\/p><p>As you solve a puzzle, you get further and further into the story. For example, doors open, there are special effects or drawers open with new objects that allow you to solve another puzzle. You will not find any maths puzzles or puzzles that require you to be strong, agile or fast. This allows everyone to play an escape room, young and old.<\/p><p>Of course, sometimes you can get stuck in a puzzle. Our game masters pay close attention to how far into the game you are, and if necessary, they will help you further at the right moment with a good hint. This will make you look at a puzzle differently and come up with a new solution yourself.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f6baa80 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"f6baa80\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Themes escape rooms<\/h3>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5cf5dcd elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"5cf5dcd\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>An escape room usually has a certain theme.

With us, for instance, you are in the Budapest Express. You stand on a platform and see the outside of the train. On the train, you walk through a dining car. Or choose our Aurum escape room. You will be sent out with your team to find out if it is possible to make gold.

That way, together with your group, you will be able to solve the puzzles. Sometimes you can also only solve a puzzle together with someone else, because you have to do something in two places at the same time, for example.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d25e5e9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"d25e5e9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-button-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm\" href=\"https:\/\/backspace-escaperooms.nl\/en\/escape-rooms\/\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">View our escape rooms<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wat is een escape room?
