Lisbon: Escape Room Adventure & Private Game Master

Summary

Race the clock in lisbon’s escape hunt with friends and laughter

You’ll dive into Lisbon’s Escape Hunt with friends or family, donning costumes and racing against time in your own private escape room. A local game master guides you through clever puzzles and themed mysteries—expect laughs, surprises, maybe some friendly chaos. You’ll walk away with team photos in your inbox and probably a few inside jokes that stick around longer than you expect.

What’s the experience like?

The first thing I noticed was the faint smell of old books and something like cedar when we stepped into the Escape Hunt in Lisbon. The place felt a bit like an old movie set—dim lights, heavy doors, and these little props everywhere. Our game master, Inês, handed us some costumes (I picked this ridiculous Sherlock hat that kept slipping over my eyes) and explained how the whole escape room thing works. She had this dry sense of humor—kept a straight face even when my friend Rui tried to guess the mystery before we’d even started. I liked that she didn’t give anything away.

We picked one of their four themed games—I won’t spoil which one, but let’s just say it involved more locks than I thought possible. There were five of us crammed into this room, whispering ideas and bumping elbows while the clock ticked down way faster than I expected. At one point I got distracted by a painting on the wall (turns out it was actually a clue), and everyone laughed when I jumped as a hidden compartment popped open. It’s weird how you start noticing tiny details—the sound of someone’s nervous tapping, or how quiet it gets when you’re all stuck on a riddle.

Inês checked in through a little speaker now and then—never too much, just enough to nudge us along if we got totally lost. The last puzzle had us all shouting over each other (I think I actually apologized twice for stepping on Carla’s foot). We made it out with about two minutes left. Afterwards, they took our photo against this silly backdrop—everyone sweaty and grinning—and emailed it to us before we’d even left. That picture still makes me laugh.
