This intense experience involves puzzles, riddles and a series of mysteries to be solved in a locked room where time is most definitely not on your side. The goal of each game is finding a way out to emerge victorious and celebrate with your team mates after ultimately working your brain muscles to the max.

If this sounds like your idea of fun, there are a whole bunch of escape rooms available across Northern Ireland for you to try your luck at deciphering clues and making it out within the time limit.

If you are a Game of Thrones fan, this must be your favourite place already in Northern Ireland or it’s surely going to be after you’ve paid a visit to GoT To Escape. Located in the heart of Belfast, this place will take you away to the magical world of the popular drama series with three Game of Thrones inspired escape rooms. One of the rooms, Save King’s Landing, has been so popular, the company had to replicate this game three times, allowing them to accommodate larger teams. Your team, composed of two to six players, has to find the hidden wildfire needed to defend the city against the enemy fleet, with a mere 60 minutes to complete the mission. However, in case fantasy world is not for you, check out a new game The Assessment, where you will have to get your act together to be shortlisted for a dream job with Belfast’s most prestigious security company. Which task will you take on? For more information go to gottoescape.com
