Family activity in Gothenburg

An hour where parents, teenagers and younger siblings actually do something together, and where the kids often find the clues first. The rooms below suit children, and the age is shown on every room.

A game takes 60 minutes, so it is easy to combine with lunch or a café the same day.

Family activity in Gothenburg: tram, islands and a room to crack

A family day in Gothenburg can start on tram 11, which runs straight from Mariaplan to Saltholmen. From there, Västtrafik ferries sail to the car-free islands of the southern archipelago, on the same ticket as the tram. Spend the morning on an island and play in the afternoon; from Mariaplan it is a 5–8 minute walk to Escape House.

Three rooms suit families with children aged 12 and up: The Chapel, The Casino Heist and The Detectives. New to escape rooms? Start with The Casino Heist, rated Easy/Medium, then try The Chapel, rated Medium. Families who love detective stories can take on The Detectives, rated Medium/Hard. Six or more of you? Split across two rooms.

Rather stay on land? Walk to Slottsskogen, about 20–25 minutes to the middle of the park. The animal park there has free admission and is open all year. At the children's zoo, open April to September, children can pet the animals, and Plikta playground, with its giant wooden whale to climb, is in the same park.

What if we get stuck?

The game master follows the game on camera and gives hints when needed. Nobody stays stuck for the whole hour.

Do we have to book in advance?
