What ages are your rooms suitable for?
We often get asked what age our games are suitable for. The answer is…it depends. At Quest Reality Games, all of our games are designed with all ages in mind, so children of all ages are welcome. Indeed, we’ve had plenty of children of all ages play and enjoy all our games.
How successful any players are is dependent upon their individual experience and development, and the composition of the players in the group. For instance, sometimes children do better than adults, because they don’t enter the games with pre-conceived notions. Oftentimes groups of adults who are unsuccessful tell us about all the assumptions they made that ultimately held them back, while children often see the world for what it is, in simpler terms, and therefore don’t make incorrect assumptions or bring extraneous ideas to puzzles that end up over-complicating them.
Although our themes are not intended to be scary for any ages, we strongly encourage parents to read our theme descriptions to determine whether they will be suitable for their unique child. Having said that, our escape games are mostly dark (each has some form of ambient light, and players are provided with a light source), so any children playing our games must be prepared to be in a mostly dark space for up to an hour.
CASE-SOLVING INVESTIGATORS
Designed for 2-8 players, this is truly a one-of-a-kind gaming experience! Players are cast into the role of rookie crime scene investigators, and have 90 minutes to uncover the truth behind the mysterious death of Melanie Burton. Armed with CSI toolkits, players must process and analyse the evidence, assist Detective Frank O’Malley in interviewing witnesses, and ultimately file an accurate report with their crime lab supervisor to solve this mystery. Warning: As this is an “active” investigation scene parents are strongly cautioned that some material may be inappropriate for children under 13, as it contains a realistic corpse, blood and gore.

Magic Portal is an outdoor GPS adventure game where the lines of reality and fantasy become blurred.

An evil organization has unleashed a mind-control virus on the world, and is preparing to remotely trigger its evil power at any moment!

ESCAPE GAMES
Of course, we also offer highly-immersive, second-generation indoor escape games.

You must uncover the secrets of what has caused the townspeople to be turned into ferocious zombies in order to escape and make your way to freedom before you too become the next victims of the Zombie Apocalypse!
Sorcerer’s Lair
Adventurers across the land have been inexplicably vanishing. Many believe they have fallen prey to an evil sorcerer who has been using them as subjects on which to test his evil black magic spells! What will become of you and your friends when you too are captured and imprisoned by the Evil Sorcerer? Will you have the wits to escape his enchanted lair, or will you become the next victims to his latest spell?
Secrets of the Great Pyramid
Professor Stanley Dunford is in Egypt exploring the Great Pyramids, in hopes of finding a lost treasure. On the brink of a great discovery, you fear he has become imperilled, and you have travelled to Egypt in search of him. Your rescue mission soon turns to one of survival when you too become trapped inside! Only one hour of oxygen remains. Will you escape in time, or will the Great Pyramid become your tomb as well?
Rosewood Manor
The Rosewood Manor has been abandoned for decades. Legend has it that the old manor is haunted, and anyone who spends more than one hour inside will be trapped there forever! One day, many years ago, 8-year-old Tommy Dawson entered the Rosewood Manor on a dare, and he has never returned! Today, many years later, you too have entered the Rosewood Manor on a quest for the truth. Will you uncover the secret of what happened to Tommy Dawson so many years ago, or will you too become trapped inside forever?
While we welcome guests of all ages, for both your child’s safety and that of our props, we require an adult player to supervise any children under the age of 14. Supervisors are welcome to join in the fun—after all, you paid to be part of the group too!
At Quest Reality Games, we host a LOT of children’s birthday parties. Sometimes parents don’t want to be paying participants, or would like the children to have the opportunity to enjoy their experience without mom or dad around. That’s why for our escape game birthday party packages, we offer the option of having one of our Game Masters in the theme to supervise the children during their game play, leaving mom and dad to relax, enjoy an hour of peace & quiet, and save a few dollars while we keep an eye on the kids. Considering holding your son’s or daughter’s birthday party at Quest Reality Games? Here’s 7 Reasons To Hold Your Child’s Birthday Party at Quest. Also, check out our birthday party page.
