So much fun
Had the absolute best time!! We came here whilst travelling 2 years ago and absolutely loved it. So when on this current visit to beautiful Aotearoa we knew we had to come back. My wife and I love escape rooms and try to do at least one wherever we travel in the world. Confinement is the best escape rooms we have ever done anywhere. So much so, we did all 4 of their escape rooms and also their outdoor scavenger hunt on this visit. The rooms are so clever and thrilling to complete and the staff are amazing. So friendly, kind and genuinely want you to have a great experience. I would like to thank Deiryn, Emily and Maia for all of their hand work and for helping make our visit so happy and memorable. We will be back again for sure on our next visit. Cannot recommend this place enough.
