About Escape Smash Play Geelong

Escape Smash Play Geelong is an alcohol-free activity venue in South Geelong that puts three different games under one roof. Groups can lock themselves in an escape room, throw axes at timber targets or take a bat to a crate of donated crockery, and many bookings combine two or three. The three escape rooms each run for an hour and suit about four or five players. Prison Break is the gentlest starting point, Bank Heist is the hardest of the set, and Haunted House is dim and atmospheric with no live actors and nothing that grabs at you. A host follows each game on camera and sends hints when a team gets stuck. Axe throwing runs across three lanes for up to six people each, opening with coached practice throws before a scored competition. The smash room supplies overalls, gloves, knee pads and a face shield, and players take turns inside while the rest of the group looks on. Birthdays are priced by the head, and groups of ten or more move onto set multi-activity packages with a coordinator who plans the timing. Corporate teams can take over the whole venue from Monday to Wednesday, when it is closed to the public, and invoices are available. Escape rooms take players from eight, while axes and smashing start at twelve. Everyone needs a zero blood alcohol reading to play, and closed shoes are a must for the physical activities.

Frequently asked questions

How much does a birthday at Escape Smash Play cost?

Each activity is $50 a head. Outside peak times, linking two activities lowers each one to $45 and booking all three lowers each to $40, while Friday evenings and Saturdays stay at $50 an activity.

What ages can take part?

Escape rooms are open to players aged eight and over, with an adult needed in the venue for anyone 12 or under. Axe throwing and the smash room start at 12, and players aged 14 and under need an adult present.

Can we bring alcohol or food?

The venue is fully alcohol free and every player must blow 0.00, so BYO alcohol is not allowed. Cake, nibbles and non-alcoholic drinks are welcome, and the venue can also supply cakes and catering for parties.

How do large groups and corporate bookings work?

Groups of ten or more book a package, with up to 50 people an hour rotating through the rooms and lanes. A 50% deposit holds the date, the balance is due a week before, and corporate bookings can be invoiced.

What should we wear?

Anything comfortable works for the escape rooms, but closed-toe shoes are required for axe throwing and the smash room. Overalls, gloves, knee pads and a face shield are provided for smashing.
