PaniQ Room - The Original and The Best!

PaniQ Room – Escape Room in The Rocks

When PaniQ Room opened its doors in 2015, Escape Rooms were little known in Australia. Owners Akos and Martina brought the concept with them from Hungary, the birthplace of Escape Rooms. In Hungary ‘PaniQ Soba’ (PaniQ Room) was one of the oldest, best-known and most loved escape room companies. In fact, many people today still use the words PANIC ROOM and ESCAPE ROOM interchangeably.

Akos and Martina built their first rooms from scratch, using recycled and reclaimed materials, Martina’s eye for interior decoration, and Akos’ skills in set-building, design and woodworking. They began with just three rooms, Supercell 117 – Sydney’s longest-running and original jailbreak room, Sen3es an eerie magician-themed room designed in collaboration with a Hungarian stage magician, and Military Bunker, a historically-themed military room.

In 2020, these rooms were joined by two high-tech rooms inspired by popular culture – House of Jumanji, where players play on a gigantic boardgame, and Godfather, inspired by the famous franchise, a mafia-inspired reverse-heist.

In 2023, PaniQ Room expanded further with the addition of two more rooms, Wizardry, a fully-immersive magic themed room, and T.I.M.E Hotel, a story-driven time-bending mystery set in a 1940s Hotel.

As seen on:

SuperCell 117

You find yourselves in a prison-cell handcuffed and blindfolded with stifling smoke. You have no idea how you got here. Your team has been separated into two neighbouring cells. You quickly realise you’re going to have to work together if you want to make it out.

But hurry – the guards will be back in just one hour, and who knows what will happen when they arrive!

SEN3ES

You enter the abandoned house of a mysterious magician in search of his lost book of secrets. As you continue, the doors close behind you and there doesn’t seem to be a way back.

Is the magician still around? Don’t let him mess with your mind. You need to overcome the magician’s tricks and escape using your senses.

You may lose your sense of time, but remember that you only have 60 minutes to get out! If you don’t, the magician will be stuck in your mind forever.

Godfather

There is a rat in the Corleone family. The rat has fallen in love with the daughter of a rival mafia boss, and to win the trust of her family, has stolen an incriminating tape from the Godfather himself.

The rat has copied the tape and has made you an offer you can’t refuse. He needs your help to smuggle the tape back into the safe of the Godfather’s house before the Godfather even knows it’s missing.

Can you find a way to sneak through the Godfather’s garden and enter his office? You’ll have to hurry. The Godfather is at a christening that will end in an hour, and if he catches you in his office, you and your team will all be sleeping with the fishes!

House of Jumanji

You hear sounds of distant drumming from a dark corner of your new house. The drumming grows louder as you move closer to an ancient board game. Strange carvings on the board say “A game for those who seek to find, a way to leave their world behind”.

You roll the dice to move your token. Unusual sounds and mysterious animals appear in every corner! Your next steps determine your fate. Can you find the magic words, and escape before it’s too late?

The Hotel Lift

You are in a 1940’s hotel with your friends. The bellboy isn’t in today, so you’ll have to carry your own bags. But the lift only fits a few. A few of you get into the lift while the others wait outside.

Suddenly, a fire breaks out in the hotel, trapping half your team in the lift! Your teammates outside will have get the lift working if you want to escape. But even if you get the power on and the lift working, it won’t be that easy.

All the doors in the lobby are locked and there’s no way out. Can you find a way to open the door before the fire reaches the lower floors?

Wizardry

The wizarding world is in peril, and only you can help! Dark forces are on their way to your wizarding school, and it’s up to you to stop them.

To defeat them, you’ll need your trusty broom, and it’s unfortunately been locked in the school’s highest tower.

In order to find your broom, you’ll have to sneak into the school unnoticed, escape the potion master’s dungeon and overcome all the tricks of the headmaster’s study.

But hurry up – dawn is only an hour away, and the forces of darkness will be here by daybreak!
