FAQ

What exactly are escape rooms and how long do they last?

Escape rooms are a challenging activity for groups. Our adventures last 60 or 90 minutes. After a brief introduction to the story, you enter a real, authentically designed room. There, you must solve a variety of tasks—together as a team. Once you have solved all the puzzles, you have made it: the exit door opens and you can escape.

Don’t worry: we won’t leave you all alone. Your game master will welcome you and personally look after you throughout the entire event.

And what if you get stuck? Don’t worry. The game masters are watching you from outside and will help you with little hints.

What do I need to consider before visiting an escape room?

All you need for pause & play is your team, anticipation, and a good mood. Wear comfortable clothing that you feel good in. Although our tasks mainly challenge your brain, you may still break a sweat in some situations—but that’s more likely due to excitement and time pressure. You don’t need to worry about physical activities.

What happens if I change the number of people later?

Changing the number of people at a later date is usually not a problem. Please note that you must not exceed or fall below the maximum and minimum capacity of your booked game. The price will then be adjusted to the actual number of people.

How does payment work?

When booking on our website, you can decide whether you want to pay in advance via PayPal or pay on site with a debit or credit card. Please note that we do not accept cash.

Can we hold corporate events at your venue?

Of course! pause & play offers spacious, high-quality play areas and representative common areas, as well as tailor-made team-building solutions for your exclusive event. Feel free to contact us with your event requests. We’ll make it happen!

How long are gift cards valid for?

After purchase, our vouchers are valid for three years and can be redeemed both online and on site.

I have claustrophobia. Should I skip the game?

No. Our rooms are spacious and players can “free” themselves from the room at any time. You will receive detailed instructions from our game masters on site. If you have any further concerns, please feel free to contact us by email at any time! It is important to us that you feel comfortable with us, and we have been able to accommodate all needs and restrictions so far.

What is the maximum number of players that can be in a room?

Depending on the room, 4, 6, or 7 people can play at the same time. The minimum number of players is 2 or 4, depending on the room. The number of players is clearly indicated on the room pages.

Are the rooms suitable for children?

The age recommendations listed on the room pages are our suggestions. Children under the age of 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

Are events possible for larger groups?

Of course! We offer customized packages for team or company events, as well as school trips, bachelor parties, or birthday parties for larger groups. For more information, please send us an email.

Can I play at your facility even if I am in a wheelchair?

Our play areas are barrier-free, but unfortunately our Fililae is not completely accessible. There are three steps to reach our elevator. It has just enough space for a wheelchair (~ 61 cm). If you have any further questions or concerns about other accessibility issues, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Can the rooms also be played in English?

Each of our rooms can be played in German and English.

Are there people in the room?

No. We don’t have live actors in the rooms. We use soundscapes and effects to provide the adrenaline rush you’re looking for.

Are dogs or other pets allowed?

Unfortunately, no. As much as we love dogs, they are not allowed in our rooms and are not permitted to wait on site.
