Finally, Bahrain gets to see a unique gaming experience for young adults and grown-ups! The Great Escape Challenge provides sophisticated, high-level games that will challenge even the most hardcore gamers.
Whether you’re looking for a new adventure with your family, or you’re just tired of staring at screens with your friends, let The Escape Game get you out of your comfort zone. It is also a great exercise in team building that corporate houses are now resorting to for an outdoor activity for their employees.
The Escape Game is a great way to build relational equity among coworkers and friends who get locked into a room and can find their way out only through hidden clues and cryptic puzzles.
The game has been founded by a Hungarian national, Mr Zsolt Egon Gall (33) with some other investors from Bahrain with his partner Levente Loszman (36). It is located at the first floor of the Country Mall, Budaiya Highway.
“We came up with the idea in early 2015. I pretty much enjoy entertainment (who doesn’t? ). I come from Budapest that is the capital of Hungary where I got used to the many different entertainment options that I can choose from”, explained Zsolt speaking to BTW.
‘Actually Budapest is the No 1. European city and takes the 9th place on the global list of the cities with the most escape games. So I went into almost 20 different games with my partner to look for a franchise opportunity and bring that franchise to Bahrain. What makes us really proud is that we made every square meter of the room with our hands without any external help or ready-made solution’, he said.
The entire construction process took more than 6 months for the Medieval room and almost 5 month to the Laboratory themed room. We pulled 3000m of cables into the rooms since the rooms carry a lot of cutting edge technological solutions that enhance the game experience and the game control as well. And now it is being extremely well-received by both private groups of adults (friends/families) as well as corporate bodies. A challenge to stimulate logical thinking, it is certainly a must-visit place during these Eid holidays especially for the great discounts that are on the offer.
