What you need to know about Edinburgh escape game?
- Prefer to start the game in daylight, as the lack of light may make it difficult to solve puzzles.
- Our game is completely outdoors, so it depends on the weather. The game can continue the same day or another day if it is interrupted.
- Children must be accompanied by an adult. It is a nice and very educational activity for them if an adult helps them solve the puzzles and explains them.

It was a pleasant experience…the only issue I had was with mobility, most areas were stairs so I had to do a lot of walking to find an accessible entrance for my baby’s pram.

Super activité que j’ai faite seule, ça m’a permis de découvrir de jolis coins en toute liberté de m’arrêter dans des cafés ou des boutiques sur le chemin. Les énigmes étaient variées, des plus simples et des plus complexes. Je recommande l’activité !
