A Failed Escape from Bratislava’s First Escape Room Was Fateful.
Even though we didn’t actually make it out, we liked the game and immediately started thinking of how many ways and with what tools one could win in similar rooms. A group consisting of an enthusiast, a magician, a director, and a skilled craftsman eagerly began transforming a cabin in the middle of Petržalka. We thought we would have the second escape room in Bratislava finished in a few months. In the end, Weird House took a year to complete, with just an enthusiast and another enthusiast left working on it. Finally, in November 2014, after a long construction process, we opened the doors of the Weird House. We opened them to lock in our first escape enthusiasts. While working on finishing the Weird House, ideas for two more games, Weird Bratislava and Weird Prison, came up. Back then, as is still the case today, we got the best ideas for creating new games while finishing one. The Weird House was unexpectedly successful right from the start, which gave us the boost to bring our already planned games to life. We found a fantastic space under the castle to realize Weird Bratislava. This outdoor city game combines geocaching and escape games and is the only city game that incorporates a classic escape room.
For Weird Prison, we needed a very specific space. We searched and searched until we found a large hall. This led to the creation of an escape center on Muštová Street, where we now have four games. We also adapted Weird Bratislava for children and families, resulting in the popular Treasures of Weird Bratislava. We were missing a classic single-room escape game, so we took the competition’s offer to buy their game. However, we ended up remodeling most of it. Weird Wizard’s Den is a classic escape room with our slightly unconventional twist. As unique marketing for our games, we came up with another game to bring us closer to people. The Weird Escape Trailer was the first escape game on wheels in Czechia and Slovakia. To this day, it has traveled thousands of kilometers, from Humenné to Prague. We’ve taken it to the biggest festivals, corporate events, and even small birthday parties.
In various countries around the world, unusual escape rooms were being created in old train carriages, buses, and even airplanes. We had been eyeing something similar for a while. We found an ad online for the sale of the first double-decker Neoplan bus in Slovakia. Two weeks later, the bus was parked at our place on Muštová Street. In the escape bus, we tried to incorporate puzzles related to long-distance travel. The Weird Escape Bus is currently the pinnacle of our efforts to find unique and unconventional spaces for our games. We’ve also started focusing more on events and team-building activities. We now have two trailers and create custom-made games. Hotel rooms, conference halls, city parks—we’ve created games in all these places. Friends, family, and acquaintances help and support us, which makes things a bit easier. Over the years, we’ve been incredibly lucky with our collaborators. We’ve stayed friends with everyone who worked with us for an extended time, especially the game masters (game operators), and they are still willing to help us whenever needed. As long as people want to keep getting locked in our games, we’ll keep coming up with more and more exceptional games in unconventional settings. Now, we’d like to bring these games to Prague. We are working hard on this project, and we’ll see you there soon!
