ABOUT DISTRICT 3 ESCAPE ROOMS

In District 3's escape rooms, your team will be in a scenario for a set time limit, figuring out how to escape. There are no lines to follow or set paths to traverse, just a space full of clues, hidden items, and puzzles. Anything that is not glued or bolted down can be moved and may be an integral piece in your quest to escape. Many experiences have some elements of suspense, which adds to the atmosphere and immersiveness.

There are many different themes, scenarios, and stories to experience, both physical and virtual. Just like movies in a theatre, escape rooms will be added and changed over time. Whether it be a birthday, anniversary, Christmas Party, or a team building exercise, we certainly are a fun filled destination that provides a unique thrill. Teams can come in all kinds: friends, family, co-workers, sports teams, stags, and more. The benefit from the experience will not only be unparalleled with respect to adrenaline pumping fun, it is also a valuable experience for camaraderie with coworkers, and an insightful observation of your team's strengths.

INFORMATION

PRE-GAME

BOOKING
Check availability, and make a booking online by starting with clicking either links above "Regular escape rooms" or "Virtual Reality Escapes". Alternatively, you can also book via phone, e-mail, or messaging, although we may not be able to get back to you immediately if we are busy. No deposits required, and no need to leave a credit card number. Let us know if you have any special requests such as booking outside of business hours, larger groups, party room, etc. If you don't see a confirmation email, please check your spam folder.

DISCOUNTS & PAYMENT
Payments can be made separately or together in full when you arrive. We take cash, debit, and credit. You can choose to prepay from the confirmation email. There is a 35% discount for replaying the same room at a later date, and 20% off for playing an alternate path if applicable.

BOOKING CHANGE / CANCELLATION
We understand things happen and plans change, thus we make it hassle free to reschedule or cancel any bookings, even on the day of your game. You can do so from your confirmation email, or calling us. No cancellation fees. We don't need to know ahead of time if your group size increase or decrease, and it is ok to do so.

LOCATION
We are on the corner of 6th Avenue and Lorne Street, a few blocks north of downtown. There are plenty of places nearby on Albert St. and Dewdney Ave. to hang out before or after your game. There are restaurants such as The Keg, Bushwakker Brewpub, Houston Pizza, and Red Lobster. Coffee shops include Tim Horton's, Venue B, Cafe Drip, and Starbucks.

ARRIVAL
Please arrive at least 10 minutes prior to your booked start time for payment and briefing. Check out our store's hundreds of toys, games, playing cards, books, & more, which is open 7 days a week. There is plenty of free parking in the lots north and west of the blue building, as well as plenty of street parking.

ACCESSIBILITY
Both washrooms are gender neutral, including one of which is handicap accessible. For the enjoyment of players, the majority of areas in each Escape Room will be wheelchair accessible. Unfortunately the entrance to our building does not have a ramp or wheelchair lift, but the staff can certainly help carry wheelchairs in.


IN-GAME

PERSONAL BELONGINGS
Use the provided coat hangers and lockers if you wish to get your personal belongings out of the way. We understand some people want their phones in case of emergencies, or for a piece of mind. Therefore we allow phones in the room, as long as it is not used for photography, flashlight, google, etc. Wear what will keep you comfortable moving around in a room for an hour. You keep your shoes on during gameplay.

PLAYERS
Each of the physical escape rooms allow for a minimum 2 players, and a recommended max of 8 players. VR escape rooms have a maximum of 5 players. Your team will not be paired with strangers. Typically the youngest group of players without adults on the team is 8 year olds. There are no age restrictions.

DIFFICULTY
Teams with none or lower experience are encouraged to start with easier rooms (~75% escape rate), as they should still get a good challenge out of them. Build experience for the harder scenarios.

EXPERIENCE
Players will be monitored in-game to help us provide the intended immersive experience, and to promptly give hints upon request. In-game audio and video are never recorded.

VIRTUAL REALITY
We sanitize virtual reality headsets after each experience to keep our guests safe. Practically no one gets motion sickness playing VR escapes while seated, with teleportation. Nausea is mostly caused by fast movement (ie: rollercoasters), non-teleporation, and looking down from deep heights.

POINTS
Your team starts with 50 points, dropping 20 for losing, and gaining 20 for escaping. Each team gets unlimited hints, where the first two won't deduct from your score. Each minute you escape by, you receive an extra point. You receive two points per achievement earned.

PEACE OF MIND
The door with an emergency sign above will always be unlocked for washroom breaks and emergencies.


POST-GAME

DEBRIEF & PHOTO
After the game, teams will receive a debrief on their experience, and can give a team name if they make it onto the Leaderboard. There will also be a photo opportunity for memories, where teams may wear props, and hold signs & achievements.

TIMER ENDS
If you don't escape within 60 minutes, you can choose to replay the room at a late date for 35% off, or be guided to the ending if not too far off. Like a movie, we feel it is better to see how it ends, rather than being told or not shown at all.

DIVISIONS
We can create and maintain mini Leaderboards for added friendly competition. Challenge other co-workers, schoolmates, other businesses in the same industry, sports teams, etc. There is an achievement, bonus points, and bragging rights for the top team.


GENERAL

GIFT CARDS & SHOP
Non-expiring gift cards are available for purchase in-store or online. In our shop, we also carry a variety of tabletop escape rooms to play at home with friends and family.

EVENTS & PARTIES
There are options to book out a party room or the entire venue for events such as fundraisers, birthdays, staff parties, corporate retreats, and more.

LIQUOR LICENCE
Although we are not a licensed venue, there is an option to purchase a one-time Special Occasion Permits liquor licence for alcohol consumption at our location. Applications should be submitted to SLGA at least 10 days in advance.
