How Escape Rooms Actually Work

Fortitude Valley's escape venues swap a single locked room for a run of quick challenges. Prison Island Brisbane and 123Boom Brisbane are a short stroll apart, and both suit groups that like keeping score.

Prison Island and 123Boom side by side:

Prison Island Brisbane fills a prison-styled floor with 35 cells, each holding one challenge worth 25 to 100 points.
Teams of two to five pick their own route at Prison Island and can retry a cell as the clock runs.
At 123Boom Brisbane, a team of up to eight plays six rooms modelled on video game levels.
123Boom's final room, K-Boom, asks the team to defuse a paint bomb, so players wear jumpsuits and face shields.
Prison Island has a bar in its lounge, while 123Boom has wash basins and lockers for after the paint.

Prison Island takes younger players from seven with an adult, while 123Boom starts at 12, which can settle the choice for a family group.

Game time can be set from 60 to 120 minutes, and party sessions usually run about 90.
Some cells step up through three difficulty levels.
Live screens in reception and the game area show the leaderboard.
Group bookings start at 20, with packages for birthdays, hens, bucks and team building.
