Escapology

Belmont Park in Mission Beach holds a storefront for Escapology, running a handful of private, hour-long escape rooms for two to eight players at a time. In Mansion Murder, players take on an heir accused of murdering his own grandfather and have 60 minutes to clear his name before the police arrive; other rooms send teams after a lost city or aboard a Star Trek away mission. Groups arrive 15 minutes early for a briefing and leave with a group photo once the clock runs out.
